Our new friends Justin and Jackey Perry invited us to their house for dinner last week. We made homemade pizzas and had a great time hanging out with them! They are also planting a church this spring, in Tampa, FL and will be moving in a few months. So we have to take advantage of the time they have left up here! Here's Kate and Carter working together to get their pizza made just right.
This is Justin and Jackey's daughter Abigail. The kids had so much fun playing with her! Isn't she cute? I loved her little painted toes :)
Fun times at Harris Teeter. The little shopping cart that Kate was using had a sign up top that said "Customer in Training". She thought she was something else pushing around her own cart, with real food in it! She was in charge of produce and bread :)
The weather this week has been amazing...we are so ready for spring, but realistically expecting at least one more cold snap before it's all said and done. But we'll take full advantage of the beautiful, warm days and be outside!
George turned 40 this weekend and Catherine had a big party for him at their house. She had a cake made for him that said "Old Guys Rule" :)
Here I am with my baby girl at the party, getting some sweet love :) This picture makes me laugh because Carter is peeking over the stairs in the background. Think he was keeping tabs on his mama!
Here's Carter with Abby. Aren't they sweet? Josh said he was "steady mackin'". Don't think I'm ready for that yet. May never be.
The 20/20 conference was this weekend at the seminary and we had several friends come in town to attend. When we have company, Kate gives up her room and bunks with us. She gets so excited to be in Mommy and Daddy's room for the night! Here she is all set up with her tent and sleeping bag!
From l. to r. Tyler and Leah Recker, Blake Grubbs, Josh and Hudson (who has again fallen asleep in a restaurant during lunch!) Always great to see friends from home...
Not only did George bring us that super fun train table for the boys to have, he brought over a kid-sized 4-wheeler! It's battery operated and the kids both like riding it. Here is Carter checking it out. He really wasn't too sure about it, but went around a time or two.
Josh opened both the gates to the backyard and Kate was riding the circuit around the outside of the house for a good 30 minutes...Round and round and round :)
We got Kate a new booster seat for Josh's truck. They've been taking turns riding in Daddy's truck since September. We have to keep up with whose turn it is to ride since there has only been one carseat in there. Anyway, this is a BIG deal for the kids to be able to both ride with Daddy, at the SAME time! This is the first outing...they were beyond excited!
More good times around the table...
