ONLY 5 Years or JUST 5 Years?!?! (:

The four of us went to Hot Springs to celebrate our 5 year anniversary. Not 5 miles out of town I turned around to find the boys fast asleep!! Guess we shopped more than I thought! Too sweet!!! I have to say though their car seats are now separated. The above picture is a rare glimpse at each boys hands in is own personal space.

Happy 26! (so glad I wasn't born in the 70's like SOME people I know!)

I had a great birthday this year! Lots of phone calls, cards, texts, posts and wishes! And lots of presents too! Jacket, money, chow-chow, cards, party, outing to Hot Town with my boys.

Below are some pictures from my birthday dinner at mom and dad's. My guest list included: Mom, Dad, Barry, boys, Mamaw, Granny, Todd, Shanna, Nic, Kason and Karter. I forgot to get the camera back out once everyone arrived!

I seriously have to hand the camera over to someone else sometimes. My 2nd birthday post and still no pictures of the princess!!!! (:

My Princess Party!!!

Melissa and Carrie Jo planned me a surprise Princess Party (because I'm soooo young!). Several teachers brought different things for a pot luck at lunch. When I walked into school that morning Bridgett had signs hung up that said "Guess who's over the hill now? Brandi Tolleson!" I had 2 kids ask me if I was 40!!! I'm assuming/hoping that the "over the hill" part through them completely off! Also, there were invitations hanging up with a huge one on my classroom door inviting me to the party. I wore a birthday princess ribbon all day and got to wear a crown at my party. It was GREAT!! I even had a pink princess cake!! Thanks everyone!!!

Below is a couple snapshots I got after school. And no, there aren't any of the Princess herself!!

Halloween 2009

This was Bo's 1st Halloween!!! It started Friday at 2:00 with a Halloween Party at Mrs. Nina's. The kids got to bring candy and dress up. Mrs. Nina, or Grandma as Gus calls her, said Bo was the cutest thing she'd ever seen! He was a baby deer and Gus was the deer hunter! That night we went on a hayride with our church to Kenny's deer camp. It FINALLY stopped raining and we had a good time. Lots of people came and Brenda made lots of deer chili!!! Saturday we left about 5:30 to Trick-or-Treat. We went to our usual houses...which is not many. Bo was teething and Gus was...well Gus. Altogether it turned out to be a fun night for the boys. About 9:00 I got Granny and Carrie Jo and we went to the New Hope Haunted House!! Granny did trust us girls so she got Andy to go in with her. We got to cut line since we had a 91 year old woman out in the cold!!! It was a GREAT HAUNTED HOUSE!!!! I can't describe it...you'll just have to go next year!

The pics below are out of order...I can't figure out how to put them like I want them.
