Splish splash fun...

We took a Sunday car ride to see some beautiful sites?

This mountain off in the distance was SO beautiful:)

  

 All to get here:)  An indoor waterpark so the kiddos can enjoy some splish splash fun!

And after a half day scooting from one activity to another, they loved it:)

Pa joined in for a ride down the waterslide!

And a cool and refreshing mushroom drenching:)

MAKES two happy little girls:)  More fun to come!

Enjoy your day dear friends, BIG HUGS from Gankyland!

The more blooms the better...

I think this might be our last cold spell:)  Yes, I have said that before but this time, I  REALLY think the cold will be leaving us!  I even saw some buds opening on the Dogwood tree, a little early for that!  It's still 3 weeks or so until Easter!  Anyway, the blooms are coming and I am excited to see some color:)

I snapped this picture at my Brother Marshall's house this past week!  A beautiful bush full of yellow blooms:)  We call them yellow bells (Forsythia).  Whatever you call them, these blooms are so pretty!

I hope you are having a wonderful Sunday morning!  Have a blessed day dear friends, HUGS!

Cupcakes, skating and a sleepover...

Tracy and I enjoyed a mid-morning Birthday visit with Avery!  Avery loved the cupcakes her Mommy made:)

Alex joined us at the special table:)

 The Birthday Girl chose to have 3 Friends come home with her for a sleep-over and a trip to the skating rink!

Some fun in the play area with a little help from her Sister...

AND arcade fun...

She had a great time all evening:)

Unwrapping some gifts!  This is a cute dress from the Frozen movie from Dear Nanny!

Such a fun time for our 8 year old granddaughter!  Happy Birthday Avery, we love you!

Rainy day here in Georgia!  Hope there is sunshine and blue skies where you are!  BIG HUGS!

And now she is 8...

Happy 8th Birthday Avery!  What a sweet little baby and a sweet girl now:)

You have given us all so much joy over these 8 years!

And I am thankful that my Daddy got to hold you:)

And then you were ONE!  Oh what a CUTIEPIE!

A fun vacation pic:)

Birthday number 2!

Here she was celebrating her THIRD birthday!

 Fourth Birthday...

When she was FIVE...

And Six...

She is the BIG 7 in this picture... 

Now she is 8!  The years are flying right by!  Makes me sad:(  My little ones are getting bigger!

  Happy Happy 8th Birthday to my Precious Avery!

So happy with it...

 Over the years, my Husband has spent EVERY Fall aerating and seeding and dragging the sprinkler around!  No more, we now have an irrigation system and a new sodded lawn:)  We are SO happy with the result!

This company also sodded Tracy's back yard and did an awesome job!  Hard workers morning 'til night until the job was done!

Don't 'cha just love it when you smile after completion of a project:)  Me too!

So happy!  Wait, I think I have already said that:)

Now to get some warmer weather and add some flowers!  I know it won't be cold forever but this morning it is still around freezing:(  Needing to see some warmer temps, how about you?  Enjoy your day dear friends, BIG HUGS!
