My girlfriend Ginger celebrated her 30th Birthday with a Ball!! She planned the whole thing herself & it turned out gorgeous! We had so much fun & I am glad we were able to attend!
Here are a few pics of the celebration:
Ginger & Tori (her sister)
Jack (Ginger & David's son) He was getting a delicious cake ball!
Casey & I attended a 30th Birthday party for my girlfriend Ginger.(Next post)This is the 1st time we both have been formally dressed since our wedding!
To kick-off Spring Break, Casey, the girls & I took a short trip to Gainesville. I love this little town! As a young child, my family lived there about 5 years. They have the cutest little zoo (Frank Buck Zoo). We enjoy going!
For Casey's 33rd Birthday, we(our family), my mom & step dad, & Casey's mom & aunt all met at Bill's Catfish to eat lunch after church.
The weekend before we got to see his sister who he shares a birthday with. Kelly was born on Casey's 6th birthday! He swears he hasn't had a birthday since! Ha! Ha! We all know that is not true!
Cards the girls made
Hat rack my step dad made

When we got home from Bill's we rested up & then went to Grandmaw Elwanda's for a belated Christmas with Casey's brother Chris, Jessica & Crockett. The girls were so excited to be celebrating again!!

Nattie delighted w/her new purse Jess w/Crockett playing w/his new basketball game
Kayleigh & her scrapbook set Crockett our sweet nephew
Casey & Dylan finished plowing for Greg while he & Brenda were in Houston seeing Rich, their new Grand baby. Nathalie wanted to go with Casey, she is such a Daddy's Girl!
Casey is such a wonderful daddy! He loves the girls & they look up to him! He challenges Kayleigh to be the best she can be! He teaches Emily how to be strong! Nathalie has him wrapped around her little finger! I think it is because she is the baby & they are two of a kind!
Only God knows why we didn't have any boys!?! Casey loves his three nephews Andy, Tommy & Crockett, they will be the boys in his life!
Father's Day is such a special day! Casey & I have been fortunate to have some really great men in our lives!
We also have many Uncles & our Brothers! Happy Father's Day to Casey & all these great men!
The girls & I enjoy going with Casey on the weekends & some evenings to the different locations where he is or will be doing work. It is amazing the things Casey is able to do with this massive piece of equipment. He can build tanks for land owners, water pits for oil drilling, clear land for new developments, etc. He loves his work, he meets new people all the time & never does the same thing twice.
The girls like to ride with him on the bulldozer. It is fun to watch them (with Casey's help) to get in & out. I have even been on the bulldozer. It scares me! I think the thing that scares me most is watching him load/unload, it tilts so far back you think it might flip over. Casey could probably do it in his sleep! Kayleigh is able to draw a pretty good picture of one. You never know she could be the 1st female Stone to operate a bulldozer!
Well, probably not, but I bet Casey wouldn't mind if she asked him to teach her how.
There are so many bluebonnets growing on the side of the road in and around Wichita Falls. I have seen many people stop & take pictures with their kids. I have always thought it would be fun to do this with the girls. We were on our way to Randelett, Oklahoma. We passed a group on the other side of the highway taking pictures with their family. I told Casey SEE, SEE other people get to take pictures with the bluebonnets! The next flowers we saw on our side of the highway Casey stopped & said go for it. It was on this hill, I carried Nattie on my hip & Emily by one arm, thinking is this really worth it!?! Of course it is, beautiful flowers & pictures of the girls. The next thing was Emily's sandal came off & she stepped in a sticker patch & started to cry! Casey reminded me how bad I wanted to do this. We got situated & then my ankles & feet started burning. ANTS!! I thought to myself, hurry take the pictures and GO! Kayleigh said, "Momma I think there are ants!" Casey got the little girls & Kayleigh & I jumped in the truck! Would I do it again? Only if Casey checks it out first!
So many new things are cropping up in the Stone family these days. Staying home is a new thing for me. I am still adjusting to not working a M-F full time job. I can honestly say I don't miss all the meetings & paperwork, but I do miss the sweet people I spent time with everyday. Casey has had a ball with all the new expectations he has of & for me! I am still struggling with the cleaning/laundry part, there is just nothing fun about it! Kayleigh has enjoyed her new free time before & after school without the little girls instead of riding to & from with the daycare. Emily is excited about the new idea of going to Kindergarten. She has learned so many wonderful things at preschool/daycare. We are looking forward to the Kindergarten Roundup the 1st of May. Last but not least, Nathalie! Nattie is new to the big people potty world! She is doing such a good job & we all get so excited for her! There is no wonder what people think is going on in the public restroom when they hear 4 voices (mine, Kayleigh, Emily & Nattie) coming from one small stall congratulating each other on going potty! So now that you know what is new in our world, what is new in yours?
God, family & friends are very important! They all have great influence on our family! Raising 3 girls is not easy, but we have a strong support system!
Casey is such a wonderful daddy! He loves the girls & they look up to him! He challenges Kayleigh to be the best she can be! He teaches Emily how to be strong! Nathalie has him wrapped around her little finger! I think it is because she is the baby & they are two of a kind!
