Prayer Request Update

Remember THIS PRAYER REQUEST for Hannah Moriah?
I have been meaning to update on her,
but I have been SLACK.
After a rough couple of months,
Hannah Moriah is doing GREAT!
She still needs your prayers that she
will continue to be seizure free!
Here is Drew and Hannah Moriah playing at
the park at few weeks ago!
Hannah Moriah is so cute,
Drew is "DREW DULANEY" to her!
I don't know if she hears us saying Drew Dulaney
when he is in trouble
or if she just thinks that is his name since she has 2 names
and Grace Anne has 2 names!
Whatever the reason,
it is just TOO CUTE!!!
*Also, please pray for Tami, she is having another rough week.

Family Night

Grace Anne wanted to have a family night
while Granny and Papa were here,
so we had PAJAMA NIGHT!
We started off by having breakfast for dinner
and then we all got ready for bed and put on our
PAJAMA'S!
We then played some fun games........
pillow fight freeze
toss the teddy bear(or stuff animal)
and musical pillows

We finished up our night by watching
Bedtime Stories!
This theme is my FAVORITE!
I love breakfast for dinner
and the games were alot of fun.
I had more things planned for us to do,
but we ran out of time.
I guess that means we will be doing
PAJAMA NIGHT again soon!!!!

Children's Day

Today was Children's Day at church. This was Grace Anne's last time to sing on stage with the preschool choir, she will be moving up to the Children's choir in August! This was Drew's first time to sing on stage and he made sure that he was the life of the party!

Here is the video of them singing. You can't miss Drew on the front row, but Grace Anne is on the back row behind the little red headed boy in green!

We have had a great weekend! It has been busy, but fun. Granny and Papa are still here visiting and the kids are getting SPOILED! I will post more pictures of our weekend later!

Back in the swing of things......

It took a few days, but we are finally back in the swing of things. Grace Anne had a little trouble going back to school, she did NOT want to get up, I had to drag her out of bed the first few mornings! The Dulaney's are not morning people:-).
GA ready for school on Monday!
Drew and I have spend most of the week hanging out at home and getting caught up on house work. I can honestly say that I LOVE my job! I can not imagine myself doing anything else, being a stay at home mom is stressful, but is the most rewarding job!

Both of the kids are singing this Sunday at church for Children's Day and they have been listening to the CD and practicing for their big performance. The other day we were sitting in car line waiting to pick up Grace Anne and I heard Drew just a singing. He was singing to Jesus with everything he had, he was flat out getting his praise on! My heart melted and my eyes filled up with tears. All of the stress of "my job" ended there, all I could do was thank God for allowing me to be a mommy and for calling me to the job that He has!

Grace Anne had a great time at her buddy Jordan's birthday party on Thursday night. Grace Anne has been blessed with such sweet friends!
We are getting ready for a FUN weekend! Daniel's parents are coming to visit and we also have a Birthday party on Saturday and Children's Day on Sunday! Check back next week for pictures!
*Also, please keep Tami in your prayers, she is having some side effects from the medicine and has not been feeling all the great. Check her blog for any new updates.

Take me out to the ballgame.......

On Saturday Daniel, the kids and I headed to
Columbia to watch Auburn take on USC.
We had a great time and the weather was beautiful!
The kids did great and enjoyed watching the game,
or as Drew calls it "Batter Batter Baseball"!:-)
Watching the Tigers warm up
It's not a baseball game unless you have....
Peanuts
and Popcorn!
We saw more orange and blue than we thought we would!
It was nice to be around "home folks"
and to be greeted with a smile and a
BIG WAR EAGLE!
Oh yea, Auburn did pull out a win for us 6-4!
Well, that concludes the end of our Spring Break!
And yes, I know it was a jammed packed week!
I am tired as all get out and need a week just to rest up,
but the kids had a BLAST,
so I guess that is all that counts!!!!:-)

Finally Friday~Spring Break

On Friday, the kids and I went to pick strawberries.
This was my FAVORITE thing that we did all week!
The kids enjoyed it too, we are already planning
another trip so Daniel can go!
You are probably beginning to notice the we spent our
spring break with the same crew:-)
I met Brandy over 2 years ago and we became instant friends.
I later met her friend Stephanie and ever
since we have spent LOTS of time together!

Big Drew, Chandler, Bryce, Grace Anne & Baby Drew
All the kids get along great. GA has gotten use to being the only girl!
She has learned to be tough and when she gets older I don't have
to worry about any boys messing with my baby girl,
cause she has 4 brothers looking after her!!!:-)
Anyway, back to the strawberry patch
The kids had fun searching for the
"BEST"
Strawberries
But, I think they like

EATING THEM MORE!

Drew was eating more than he was picking,
so I had to take over his basket

but he did not mind, he enjoyed running up

and down the strawberry patch instead!

Check out Drew's face, you can tell
that he enjoyed him some strawberries!

Before heading home, we enjoyed some
ICE CREAM

That was the end of our Friday!
We had a BLAST and can't wait to go back!

Spring Break~ Wed. & Thurs.

On Wednesday, we got all 5 kids up, dressed, fed
and we checked out of the hotel and
headed to the ZOO!!!
The weather was WONDERFUL,
we could not have picked a better day to go!
The animals were out and about and more active
than the last time we were there.
We have been to this Zoo a bunch of times
(we had season tickets 2 years ago),
but Drew absolutely LOVED it this time!
I guess he is just getting older and is enjoying things more.
It was so much fun watching his face and
hearing him talk about the animals!

Here are the 5 little monkeys

Grace Anne,"Baby" Drew, Bryce, Chandler, and "Big"Drew

I forgot which animal he was being here,
but he was having fun!:-)


Feeding the giraffe "salad":-)



Watching the Sea Lion

Looking for NEMO!:-)
After the our LONG day at the Zoo, we headed back home.
We all had a great time, but we were TIRED!
We got home at 7:30 and Grace Anne laid on the couch
and fell asleep. When she woke up the next morning she said
"I have not had dinner yet"!
Poor baby!
Thursday was Daniel's off day, so we enjoyed
spending time with him.
The kids were glad to get some "Daddy time".
I did take Grace Anne to see the Hannah Montana movie
that afternoon and then we came home and
got Daniel and Drew and we all went grocery shopping!
It was nice relaxing day!
Well, that is all for these 2 days!
Whew, I am tired, it has been a fun but busy week!
I need another week just to rest!:-)
Check back to see what we did on Friday and Saturday.......

Spring Break~ Monday and Tuesday

We have had a WONDERFUL Spring Break!
We have done so much this week that I can't possibly put
everything in one post, so I will be making several post
and breaking down our week for you.:-)
On Monday we took it easy and stayed in our PJ's ALL DAY,
it felt great!
Tuesday morning we packed up and headed to
Columbia with friends,
Brandy and her boys, Drew & Bryce
Stephanie and her son Chandler
and Me and my 2 kids!
Our first stop was ED-Venture!
It was alot of fun, the last time we went Drew was 1 so he did not
get to enjoy it like Grace Anne did. He made up for it this time!
He played his little heart out! All the kids had a GREAT time!

Drew's favorite was the Fire Truck.
He climbed all over that truck and put out LOTS of fires:-)





The Grocery store was Grace Anne's favorite!
She had so much fun shopping for
her favorite foods and you can tell
from the above picture that she is like her mom,
sweets are her#1 pick!!!!





After Ed-venture we made our 1st of many stops at
Dunkin Donuts/Baskin Robbins
to get a snack:-),
then we headed to our hotel to check in.

After we checked in and let the kids run wild in the hotel room;-)
we went to the mall to Build-A-Bear!
We had dinner and then went back to our
favorite snack place for dessert!
It was a great day and we all had a wonderful time.
Well, that is all of Monday and Tuesday!
The rest of our trip will be continue until tomorrow!
Have a great day!
