"An Orange B with 2 Cold Sides..."

This was the strange request

I got from Hudson a few weeks ago!

We were driving in the car and he was holding his "blue B" (which is his satin blanket) and he said, "Mom, can we go to the store and get me a new orange B with 2 cold sides?" (You see one side of his blue B is chenille fabric which is NOT cool and the other side is satin which IS cool.)

Now, if you know Hudson you know that he LOVES orange and that he really has no use for the soft chenille side of his blanket. So, I guess this request isn't SO strange. But I had a really hard time convincing him that I didn't think we would be able to find a blanket like that anywhere.

Maybe that's because Hudson knows how crazy sweet his Nonie and Aunt Orlie (Lori) are!

After hearing his request, they MADE an "orange B with 2 cold sides" happen for him! PLUS, an orange satin pillow case! He was SO suprised and pleased!

Thanks Nonie and Aunt Orlie!

Lawson's 6th Birthday Party

Thank you family and friends for making her birthday SO much fun!!!

My Birthday Girl!

She informed me this morning that she is "72 months now!"

Not exactly sure how she knew that.

Welcome Spring!

This will probably be my most memorable first day of Spring!

God has a great sense of humor!

Lawson and I were out running some errands today.

She said, "Hey mom, when are you going back to the beauty shop to get your eyes whacked again?"

I think she meant....eyebrows waxed.

Lawson had just finished giving herself her bath tonight. She walked into the kitchen, and this was the conversation...

Daddy: "Wow, La. Your are just getting so independent. You do your own baths, you learned to tie your shoes. You need to stop growing up so fast. What are you going to need me for?"

La: (thinking...) "...to wipe my bottom."

Mommy: (Laughing!!!)

Happy "Greens-Patricks" Day! (as Lawson has been saying all day!)

I thought it would be fun to make cupcakes and green kool aid for our after-school snack today! It was pretty festive! The kids for sure enjoyed it!
Then the doorbell rang, and we got these SUPER cute cookies delivered from Judy and Turner!
Aren't they so much fun?!
It was another gorgeous day!
So we spent some time skating.

Then I probably got a bit carried away while I was cooking dinner.

(Note the green spaghetti noodles).

It was definitely one of my most festive St. Patrick's Days!
