29 and holding!

This past Sunday marked my 29th birthday. I have never really been one to get upset over birthdays. I mean how sad can it be when you have a day dedicated to you?... with presents to boot! This year has already brought so many new joys to my life, and it is only March!
My amazing sister, Amanda, and her wonderful family came to visit this past weekend along with several aunts, uncles, cousins and of course...Mammy and Poppy. This is the second year in a row that I have been lucky enough to spend my birthday with my sister. Those of you that know both of us, know that we are extremely close. We are four years apart and haven't lived in the same state since 2000, but you would never know it by how we act when we are together.
Amanda now has two hilarious kids, Jack (almost 2) and Katherine (almost 6 mos). Watching her with her kids was inspiring and exhausting at the same time. She is an amazing mom! I can barely handle one that is only 6 weeks old and she is Super Mom with two! I wish I had all day to share with you all the funny things that Jack said and did over the weekend, but a few pictures will have to do the trick.

  1. I love the picture of Katherine and Bailey together on the bed. Jack after making the cupcake funny. Sounds like y'all had a great time together this weekend. I can't wait for you to come back to school.

This is our first picture of the four of us. Laura Sue took it on her short, but sweet visit a couple of weeks ago. I stole the pic from her blog!
