Catch up post 2

Late April brought us SISTER in the hospital........

and Baby Anna Lillian!  Parker loves her!

 The girls......

 Stewart and I went to Blackberry Farms....it was fantastic and a much needed vacation for just the two of us! The food was great and the service was wonderful. Below is the main barn where we eat dinner.

 Just exploring!

 Self timer pictures---I look HUGE in this picture....about 6 months pregnant.

Then we went to Dauphin Island with some friends. Parker loved the beach and the first day she laid down and rolled in the sand. It was everywhere!!!

Anna Lillian's professional pictures...she is beautiful!

I am soooo far behind--if there is anyone that still reads probably thought I quit blogging.  I kind of did but I like going back and looking at the highlights so I'm going to start again.  Here are a few pictures over this past year.  I just picked a few to get caught up.

Dad and Parker jam session

She began dance class......and LOVES it!

Sister had a baby shower!!!

Another baby shower...I also announced in January that we were expecting #2.  We are both pregnant in this picture.  Erin about 8 months and me around 5 months.

Easter!

Another Easter with cousins!

Easter Sunday Family Picture

My grandparents with most of the granddaughters. It has been a rough year for my grandparents and it was amazing that my grandfather was able to come home for Easter this year.  He seems to be doing well now though.

December and Christmas 2011

We had a very busy December.  Below are some pictures of what went on.  We are very blessed to have such wonderful family and friends!!  Christmas is my favorite time of year and I have a ton of pictures but I tried to narrow it down to just these few.

Sister graduated with her Masters in Education

Visited Opryland Hotel

Santa visited our house before we began our trek across TN and KY.

1st stop CoCo's house

Second stop Memphis to see Pops and Pammie

Family picture on way to Bronson Christmas

Parker's first ride in a limo to the party.

3rd stop Hopkinsville to see Mimi and Pop

and saw Santa and Mrs. Claus along the way....at our Church Breakfast with Santa :)

We had two other parties with both sets of my Grandparents but I didn't get very good pictures there.  Needless to say, we barely fit into our car after all the presents from all these differnt places.  We LOVE Christmas and visiting all of our wonderful family!

Happy 2nd Birthday

Parker's 2nd birthday party at the house.  We had all the family over and Parker had a blast!

The pumpkin cupcakes that I made for the party.

Trying the cupcakes out....

Aunt Emily and Parker playing on her new trampoline and with her computer.

Pumpkin Picking and Halloween

Picking Pumpkins....I'm a little late in posting!

Parker had a blast and couldn't decide which pumpkin she wanted to take home with her.

Tinkerbell for Halloween

Attempt at a family picture

We went Trick or Treating with all the Belville's and Blankinship's and had a blast!

2 year old pictures

We had our good friend and great photographer take Parker's two year old pictures on the hottest day in August! Even though we are sweaty and red faced, I think they turned out wonderful! Thanks Darci Belville Photography!!!

Grandmother's 93rd birthday party

This past August, Stewart's grandmother turned 93. His parents had a party for her in Memphis and all his family came. He has a pretty large family and most of them, well all of them expect us and his sister live in Memphis. We had a great time and the kids had a ball swimming. We sure hope to celebrate her 94th this year!!
