Happy Birthday to Jude

Jude turned 7 this weekend! We had a big party. It began at the Chinese New Years Parade in Jacksonville, continued to lunch at Red Robin, and concluded at our house with presents, cake and ice cream and a rowdy game of basketball! A good time was had by all! Please enjoy these pics from the big party:

Friday Fun

What a wonderful and blessed day it was. Since I worked Monday, today was my off day. So, Merrick was very excited to get some attention and have a "Daddy Day". We had a blast! The morning started off with a trip with me and the 2 girls to Target where we met Aunt Amber and her two boys. From there we hit the mall to walk around and eat lunch. After that we took Haddie home for a nap, and the BIG fun started!

Merrick and I hit our fave snack place...Mama Mia Gelatto! We then played in the Jacksonville Park in the rare and wonderful sun! It was a GREAT day. I am so thankful for my kiddos.
