Our Blueberry Morning.....

Posted by Unknown | | Posted On Friday, May 17, 2013 at 9:38 AM

These are all our blueberries.....
see our bucket below.
We were there about an hour picking berries.
Initially there was some fighting amongst my crew of pickers of who would pick the first of the blueberries we saw on the bushes.
But once I told them there was a whole field of bushes to pick from, it soon subsided.  
Crack me up! 

Blueberry Fields Forever

This morning we went to a blueberry field in Mims.
Holland Farms.
We went blueberry picking.  
In honor of blueberry picking Hezekiah and Maggie Beth decided to spray their hair blue. 
We got a lot of blueberries.  
The lady working asked if we homeschooled and she gave us a special deal, $2.50/lb.
The blueberries are beautiful! 

Maggie Beth's VPK Graduation

Posted by Unknown | | Posted On Wednesday, May 15, 2013 at 11:15 AM

This morning Maggie Beth had her graduation from VPK.  

It's kind of hard to believe that after 6 years of attending First Baptist Melbourne Preschool (Hezekiah -2 years, Eli - 2 years, and now Maggie -2 years), I will not be driving one minute down the road in the morning to drop off a little one at preschool.

This preschool has been a blessing to our family, wonderful teachers and precious friends that our kids have met.  And sweet families attached to those precious friends.  

Here is Maggie Beth with her VPK teacher. 
Maggie Beth always tells me how much she loves her.  
So sweet.  


Below Maggie Beth is pictured with her friend, Alina.  
They met last year in preschool.  They are two peas in a pod!  

Summer break is right around the corner for this kid.......4 days!

And today is the day baby girl!  
The count down is done...........you are 5!  
I love you and am so blessed to be your Momma! 

5 years ago.........this little girl brightened my life!

My Magpie was born..........on May 14th.
Today she turns 5.
 
So precious.
I started looking through some old pictures tonight, I started shedding some tears.
My goodness, I am so blessed to be her Mommy!  
 
The years seem to be going by so fast, I just want to hold her and stop those long legs from growing.
The day she was born, I remember calling my friend Cindy to come watch the boys.
I was putting the dishes in the dishwasher, feeling the contractions.  
Knowing that it was about that time.
It wasn't an easy labor.....kind of scary actually, we found out the cord was wrapped around her little neck and her heartbeat was a little crazy.
But Page and I prayed and God delivered our sweet girl and she was perfect! 
She still is!
