And More Daffodil Days

This special picture was taken by Madigail!

We asked another daffodil visitor to take this one of us! Very rare that Mommy is in the picture too! What a beautiful day in a beautiful place!

Ohhhh soooo many daffodils! Doesn't his bucket look heavy!

This is the life!

My little cutie #2!






So Many Daffodils!

Just a few miles away from our house is The Three Sisters Farm. In February, they have "U-Pick Daffodils"...I have wanted to go there for years - ever since I saw the pictures a good friend had taken of her little one there. Last year, we never made it! We almost missed it this year too! We went on the last Friday that they were open! It was well worth it! I got some great pictures and the daffodils are beautiful! Did you know daffodils don't like the heat? We were told to put them outside at night! Maddie will never forget this! Next year I am going once a week while they are open - for a fresh batch of the first flowers of spring!

Taking our flower picking job very seriously!
Jack is trying to get the long stem in his bucket.

Love all the daffodils behind Maddie!

LOVE!

They were serious about the buckets they picked too...had to be their favorite colors. This picture is just so Maddie and Jack. Taking their own path!

Making Meatballs with Nannie

Love how serious they are!


Working hard.....

Oops a little blurry!

Still Mixing!


These are old pictures...Don't know why they never got posted. Maddie and Jack love to make meatballs at Nannie's house. Good thing we all love spaghetti and meatballs!





The way we spend our days....

Just catching up on a few pics from our regular days together...Jack and Maddie truly love each other! It is amazing to see Jack follow Maddie around and mimic everything she does. Maddie loves being the big sister (sometimes too bossy!) and being his second Mom...."No no no Jack". She loves holding his hand and taking care of him!

This is Jack helping me dry the dishes! He loved it! Of course they were silicone baking dishes and not breakable...but it still was his job! He did it with a smile!

Jack LOVES "op-corn"!

A little snuggle in a hammock for sale at Lowe's...Haha!
Even shopping we can snap a cute lovey photo!
Jack and his shadow! I thought this was pretty cool.
It was taken outside of our house.
Our every day life is pretty easy going and fun! We spend lots of time outdoors!

February Beach Fun!

One Sunday in February we headed to church and then to the beach...
Without a thought I dressed M&J alike in navy and white...
what a surprise photo shoot I had!
Splashing together in the waves...the water was freezing but the sun was warm! Brother and Sister Love!
Jack was so happy! He would run out of the water with this smiley face and then right back in again! The weekend before at the beach - he cried when he felt the cold water!
Here he is coming out of the water! LOVE this!
Truly blessed with two Lowcountry kids....loving life at the beach!





For Uncle Joe....

Too cute to not post...Jack playing with his reflection in my car! While his cousins played together in the yard....
Cousins calming down with some yoga....

Dancing with the WII....
3 happy girlies!

Giggles!

Thinking of you and praying for you Uncle Joe....






Myrtle Beach Weekend with Cousins!

The Mom's...

Our Beach Spot!

Pizza Dinner with lots of kids!

Julian and Jack playing together - well almost together!

Maddie and Tessa LOVE each other!
What an awesome weekend! In honor of Rian and her boys traveling to the East Coast we headed up to MB for the weekend. Can't wait for July to do it all again! The weather was unseasonably warm - perfect for the kids to run around and have a beach day together! We even got to swim outside in February (in a heated pool!) We brought home a little sunburn and lots of great memories!
