Here we go

OK, we're OFF on this blog thing! :) Our days are very busy, with weekends usually being crazy. This weekend was no exception. A great thing about this weekend was Brittney only had to cheer Friday rather than the typical Friday & Saturday games. Yesterday was Kaley's 4th birthday party. 4 - ALREADY! I constantly am astounded at how quickly the time goes. When you are young, you think you never will be on your own and out from under your parents' thumbs and then you blink and you are married with kids and lives that are hectic and busy but so rewarding! Now, I look at Kaley and think how quickly it is going to go by since the last time I blinked, Brittney was just a baby! Anyway, Kaley's party at Sweet & Sassy was perfect! She had SO much fun and had all of her best girls there. They were all precious in their princess attire and tiaras. She was in her element for sure - front and center on stage singing and dancing to Hannah Montana! She got into the car after the party and said, "This was the best party EVER!" So cute!

We were able to come home with a little time to unload gifts, open some and then out to Tripp's basketball game. Put it this way - after his game, he said, "It's going to be a long season." :) BUT they have a great coach. It's amazing how much most of the kids have improved since the last season. There's a lot more competition. I was so proud of Tripp yesterday. He is maturing every day. He was called for a foul he obviously didn't agree with, but rather than getting angry, he kinda made a smirky-grin and just kept on playing. WOW!

Today was a Sweet & Sassy extension from yesterday. Somehow yesterday Brittney, Kaley & I FINALLY talked Scott into letting Kaley get her ears pierced. We badgered him until he broke! Her earrings are adorable, but there were lots of tears. Scott was not happy w/me & Brittney. Once it was all over I asked him if he was ok. His response was, "I hope y'all are happy now!" Obviously he doesn't understand girlhood! No, it didn't feel good to have it done, but so worth it later!

Off to enjoy the remaining bit of our weekend!
