Girlfriend Trip 2013

February 27 - March 2 was our annual Girlfriend Trip to Myrtle Beach.  Oh, how I love going on my girlfriend trip every year!  We cry, we laugh, sometimes so hard we wet our pants!  Of course, as we get older that becomes easier to do!  We enjoy shopping, eating, relaxing and catching up on each others busy lives! 

 Pamelia, Lynn, Lauralan, Libbi and Brenda

This world is a better place because these girls are in it!  Life would not be the same without them!

Happy Birthday Emma Jewell

Emma Jewell turned 3 on February 23!  She's the sweetest little bundle of energy that I ever did see!

I love this little sugar-pie!  Happy Birthday, Em!!

Myrtle Beach Marathon

February 16 was the Myrtle Beach marathon.  It was Jessica's first marathon and we were SO excited for her! 

 View from our room at Dunes Village

The indoor water park was lots of fun for the kids

 The lazy river

 We might have been at the beach, by a pool but it was COLD!

 Me and Norah Raye

Kenny is the best uncle ever!! 

 Her face might not show it but Olivia loved the slide

 Jessica, all registered.  No turning back now! 

 This was before the race - very cold and very nervous!

 Big Daddy looking good, getting some love from the kids

 Yea Jessica!!  What a great run!

Team Whetstone

We are all so proud of our runners and hope they know what a pleasure it is to support them!  I have the best family ever!!

 It's official - 4:49:24 - AWESOME!  So proud of Jessica!!  We are very proud of Michael too but since this was his 20-something marathon, Jessica gets all the props today!

Yes, you are not seeing things.  That is snow on the beach chairs!  It snowed a little Saturday night.

The Big 30!!

Sunday, February 10 was Mary Beth's birthday.  Knowing that her "big 30" was a momentous occasion, on Saturday, LaNelle had a very special surprise birthday brunch for her.  It was fabulous and she couldn't have been more surprised! 

 I knew from day one that this little firecracker was going to light up my world! 

 I love you so much, Sunshine!!

Birthday Boys

Saturday, February 2 we celebrated two of my favorite boys birthdays!  We went to the skating rink in Batesburg for Hunter's 13th birthday and Peyton's 12th birthday party.  They invited their friends and family.  All the kids had fun skating and eating yummy cake and ice cream. 

 Happy Birthday boys!  I love you like crazy!

Happy Birthday Kenny

February 1 was my sweet Kenny's birthday!  He is always such a loving, caring person.  I am so thankful he was sent to our family!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!  I love you, babe!!
