Where Do I Begin?

Well hello there!

I'm not even sure where to start.

Let's see I'll start with this.....

I love to blog.

Yep, but have become terrible at it.

Its so easy just to jump on FB

and type out a verse or small update 

and move on.

The blog takes longer but is SO worth it!

Let me begin here

with a few pictures.....

That's a good place to start right?

Well our Sir Cuteness is in California

right now with mama and her family 

on vacation.

This is the longest we have been apart 

practically since he was born.

But he is having a fabulous time!!

He saw the ocean for the first time yesterday,

and he is going to Disneyland this week.

He.can't.wait.

Mickey, Minnie, Olaf

heehee

He is MOST excited to see Olaf.

Oh I hope he is wandering about

with his flurry cloud above his head =)

This was taken the night before Sir Cuteness left

on the big ole Jet Plane.

We went to TGIFriday's with 

Eric, Erin and their loves.

Yes my granddaughter Miss Lady Sweetness herself.

Here she is in all her pink bowness.  

Yes it is a spectacular and it appears.

 And here she is with brother,

who incidentally was leaving the next

day to go with his grandparents to Florida for a week.

He will be gone the same time Sir Cuteness

will be, but at opposite ends of the country.

Then it was time for Glow Golf.

How fun.

Well I didn't actually play.

No sir, I VERY happily agreed to watch

this princess.

Oh.my.golly.

Look at that hair.

I mean seriously.

The cuteness.

She is a doll.

A.doll.

Ant then Friday morning I woke up 

early and watched this babe sleeping for a bit.

Yes he was leaving later in the day,

but for now, 

my heart was resting in this moment.

I love him so!!!

Then it was off to play tennis.

'nuff said.

Oh how I love him!!

Have I mentioned that?

I just LOVE this pic.

The boys are watching a video of 

Sir Cuteness hanging from a rope.

hahaha

He did really good.

Held on for almost a minute.

That's big stuff for a five year old.

Here is Sir Cuteness and Hailey

on the plane.

He loved it!!

And then he fell asleep =)

Ok so this seems silly,

but I went to get my face done 

yesterday because I have a new friend

from church that sells Mary Kay and

she was having an event,

so I went.

I loved it!!

She has such a story.

A beautiful, God-filled, story.

Here is my eye.

Not a part of her story,

but so a part of mine.

This is the one that has been infected.

Looking back to normal

and way prettier than normal.

I am not good at make up.

I just wear it.

Does that make sense?

Well, now I feel better at it.

YAY!!

anyway....

And here I am donning my Huskers hat.

Is it football season yet?

I love y'all!!

Please tell me I will get back into regular blogging?

I sure hope so.

Have a Blessed and Beautiful Day ~~ 

What we've been up to.....

Winter has been long 'round these parts,

but we have made the most of pretty days 

and even some cold ones.

We have gone to Dairy Queen.

Yes in the winter.

Yes we are ready for spring.

Somehow ice cream makes us feel like spring

is going to come.

Oh Sir Cuteness,

you are so funny.

You and Dr. Pepper.

Love.

We had a very windy,

blue skied day,

that we COMPLETELY 

took advantage of.

The skies were blue.

The grass was brown.

We had SO much fun!!

You LOVED this cone.

I LOVE this boy.

Oh this boy!!!

We ran back home and grabbed

another kite.

SO much fun!!!

Remembering to love.

Really love.

Watching this babe play the iPad.

Baby girl and her mama.....

My personal stylist has been back at work.

Loving my cowl.....

(thank you RJ)

If its going to be cold,

its going to be stylish.

Making forever memories.....

You can't see PaPa, but he is on the other

side of the phone being awesome!!

We love him so!!!

Sir Cuteness wanted to remember this

moment of us eating Smarties.

He called it a forever memory.

I love him!

Have I said that?

And a selfie at the gym.

Your welcome.

So that's what we've been up to.

What you been up to?

Have a Beautiful day ~~ 

Random Friday.....Yes on Monday!!

Ok so I am playing a little catch up.

I didn't get Random Friday up on Friday

so thought I'd go ahead and catch

ya'll up to speed.

Sir Cuteness got a dry erase tablet

for Christmas.

He loves it.

He is getting so big,

and is writing now.

Writing people.

How has this happened?

He is so stinkin' cute!!

Look at these letters.

So terrific.

Sir Cuteness found these stylus'

that Dak had here from his 

DS.

Sir Cuteness loves them.

I can remember Dak really loving them too.

So funny.

Oh my golly

then there was this goodness.

'nuff said.

And sweet baby girl was born on the 16th.

I'm not posting pics yet

of Miss Lady Sweetness,  

but we are already in love.

She is so precious.

I got to see her tonight (Sunday).

She is SO tiny.

And there you have it.

A week in the life.

Oh yeah,

my back is better.....

then worse again.....

then better.....

then worse.....

but.....

God is good.

And I am fine.

Have a Blessed and Beautiful day ~~ 

Sunday Letters

I missed a whole week of blogging.

Dumb back.

Anyway.....

I'm back with Sunday Letters.

YAY!!!

My darling Sir Cuteness,

You got a dry erase notebook

for Christmas 

and you are loving it.

Here you are writing.

Look at these amazing letters.

You are doing great!!!

This week has found us getting a little more

back to normal after all the snow

and bad weather we have had.

You are the funniest little guy.

The funniest.

=)

Hahahaha!!!

I look forward to every moment we get to spend

together.

You are the best little buddy.

I love you sweet boy ~~ Grandma

My Dear Mr. Winslow,

We have had such a quiet weekend.

It cracked me up yesterday

when we went to WalMart and 

really didn't have anything we needed.

I asked you if this meant 

we were getting old

and starting our daily runs to WalMart

just to get out of the house.

We crack me up.

You are continuing to help me

with my back.

I am so grateful.

You are THE BEST!!!

I love you my dear man ~~ 

dawn

Random Friday in Pictures ..... on Saturday. Yep.

 I am just cool like that.

I didn't get my Random Friday

post up yesterday,

but still want to do it,

so I shall post it on Saturday.

Ok..... moving on.....

=)

So Sir Cuteness,

my personal stylist was at it again.

Shirtless.

Yep it's the way he rolls.

I got my first Persnickety Prints order.

Y'all I'm telling you,

I am amazed at the quality of these

PHONE photos.

That big one of me and Sir Cuteness

is an 8x8,

and a shot taken with my PHONE.

I went ahead and ordered it thinking

I would probably not like it, 

but boy was I wrong.

It is so nice!!

Yeah.

This happened.

And this.

HIGH OF 4 DEGREES.

Yeah, I'm over that.

Still in a sling.

Still over it.

Do y'all Snapchat?

This is Dak Snapchatting with me and 

Sir Cuteness one night.

So sweet.

(Yes that is Gandalf in the background.)

Its the way he rolls.

=)

Sir Cuteness has missed way more school

than he's attended lately.

So of course that means sink play.

He LOVES to play in the sink.

He gets his green bucket out

(see it in the background)

that holds his bathtub toys

and he plays in the sink.

For a REALLY long time.

It is SO cute.

And usually requires a change of clothes

afterwards.  

=)

And this was him snow boarding.

Oh this picture.

Yep blowing this one up for the books!

This was yesterday.

Yep still in a sling.

Still over it.

But I got to see this girl!!  

And we went to Target.

So.....

All is well!

Thanks for stopping by.

I hope you have a Blessed and Beautiful day ~~
