Corn Maze

Whew! What a day yesterday, but it was fun. We started the day with both boys having a soccer (those pics will come later) and then we had lunch & headed to the Shelby Corn Maze for an afternoon of fun. It was perfect weather... maybe even a little warm. I've never been before and the last time the boys went was when I had Kensley. It's really a cool place to take kids. If you are within driving distance, I would highly recommend it. (Little ones definitely need a stroller to make it through though). They have all kinds of stuff for the kids to play on, hayrides, a cow ride (it's a 4 wheeler that pulls little kids in cow looking carts), a corn shooter, concessions & of course, the maze. Here's some pictures from our visit.

Busy week

Sorry it's been so long since my last post. It's been a crazy busy week. We took the kids to Disney On Ice Wednesday night courtesy of MamMaw Wanda & PapPaw Dwayne. I didn't take my camera b/c I was afraid they wouldn't allow them in & I didn't want to risk the chance of possibly having my brand new camera confiscated. We walk in and I think everyone who was there had a camera & snapped pictures the whole night... rats! All of Corby's family was there, so hopefully I can steal a few pics from them. The kids had a good time. Kensley kept asking where Mickey, Minnie, Goofy & Donald were. They started the show & would come out b/w acts, but really that's about it. ***Note: if you go to a Disney on Ice show, take a coat. It was FREEZING in there. Corby said "we should have had a clue... Disney on ICE.... ice should have given us a clue that it would be cold. ***

Carter had a funny this week. It may not be that funny to you reading this, but we laughed the whole way home when he said it. We go to small group on Sunday nights. Our hosts names are Ross & Hazel. Normally their grand-daughters keep the kids for us every Sunday night while we meet, but this week they were busy so Ross kept the kids for us (this couple run a daycare... he's great with kids). On the way home we were talking about what they did and said something about "Ross". Carter busts out "his name is FROST???" I about peed in my pants.

Kensley's birthday party

The party yesterday was lots of fun. Kensley had a great time & looked so cute dressed up like Minnie Mouse.

It's so cute to see her get so excited over characters. When your kids love something, you love it too. I made her a Minnie Mouse birthday cake with polka-dot cupcakes. It was funny because no one wanted to cut the cake, so we brought it home... looking the same way as it is here.

She got lots of girly presents and loved alll of them... dolls, some dress up clothes, winter clothes, shoes, bags, books, a doll house, and more. It's been fun to watch her play with everything the past 2 days.
