make new friends but keep the old...

A long, long time ago, I was a girl scout.
And whenever I think of this family I remember that song.

Make new friends, but keep the old. One is silver, the other is gold.
September 2008

A circle is round, it has no end. That's how long, I will be your friend.
March 2009

A fire burns bright, it warms the heart. We've been friends, from the very start.
June 2010

You have one hand, I have the other. Put them together, we have each other.
May 2011

Across the land, across the sea, friends forever we will always be.
April 2012

We were BLESSED to get a call from some great friends that they would be coming through Knoxville for a few days and we were happy to have them over for dinner, laughter, and A LOT of playtime! Mason and Will have been friends since they were about 3 weeks old and when it came time to leave Seattle, leaving these dear friends was a struggle. Luckily, they have southern roots so this will not be the end of our boys and now girls to strengthen their friendship.

Where did March go?

I just noticed I didn't blog AT ALL in March. Oopps. How did that happen?! We have been B.U.S.Y.
We had Spring Break, birthday parties, crazy weather and much more.
So here was our month in a nutshell.

we went to the zoo. It was great weather- not too hot, not too cold so the animals were all out enjoying the sun. this is the closest I have ever seen the giraffes.

Mason with his friends watching the elephants.

March also brought a lot of bumps and bruises for this guy. He flipped riding down the driveway on a ride on truck (it sounds worse than it is) and scrapped his chin and then he was not watching where he was walking and ran into a door knob and got his eye. Oh brother. What will we do with you?

Reagan has discovered she LOVES sunglasses and after having numerous of my sunglasses stolen and broken from this little sweetie. We got her some new styling shades of her own. She loves them.

I love getting pictures of the two of them side by side. I know one day their height difference won't be so noticeable.

We have spent almost EVERY afternoon outside, in our backyard, riding bikes, playing water table and just enjoying these beautiful days!

I promise to do better in April.
