Look who got a big boy haircut!

When we were in Memphis for cousin Emily's wedding we were able to take advantage of thee spring weather and visit the zoo. While the big kids watched the bears, Lulu eyed the fountain. She screamed when I made her leave.

Fun in the sun!

Parker and I all dressed up at cousin Emily Barnes wedding to Jason Carnes.

More photos from race weekend in Natchez. While we were in Natchez we were able to enjoy a couple of Mardi Gras parades. Below Sarah, Josie, me and Lulu are watching behind the fencing.....the others are all our front catching beads...sorry I don't have any pictures of that!


It was quite cool so the big pool wasn't ready for swimming so we pick up a little one

I think photo sums up my family pretty well!
Parker telling Bennett the rules. Maybe one day he will get to make up the rules!

Sweet Lulu doing her thing. She can always find something that she enjoys doing and doesn't create much of a fuss unless she is in the car and I turn down the music! She loves for music to be playing!


Not sure if y'all remeber Bennett's caterpillar from our family trip to Centralia last Labor Day. While we were there it starting creating its cocoon on one of Coco's plants so she made me bring the plant home. I set it in the corner of the room by the doors to the patio until one afternoon Parker noticed something different....


Our caterpiller became a huge moth horns! These pictures really don't do it justice.

It never did fly away
I even took it outside to see what it would do and it just stayed there so I brought it back in....



and it dissappeared so I'm pretty sure the cats got it!

These pictures are from way back in February when we were in Natchez for the JA Run for the Kids 10K race. Below is a picture of Shannon, Josie and Lulu going down the slide. Lulu loves bouncies as you will see later when I post pictures of Taylor's 4th birthday party.



Clif and I at the beginning of the race (only 1 hill conquered at this point) giving hi-fives to the kids watching us.


Poppa Jack, Coco, Josie, Lulu, Parker, Bennett, Uncle Michael and Taylor waiting for Shannon, Sarah, Clif and I to run by.
The race winners!

We finished somewhere in the middle. This was Clif's first race and he did great! I'm so proud of him. Now if I can get him to run another...maybe the 300 Oaks in Greenwood in September.
