Katelyn had her first gymnastics class tonight. Nora and Ellasyn have already been taking a year and they were sweet to help Katelyn. This photo is courtesy of Jennifer Ray. I am so glad she captured this moment because it was my favorite moment of the night. Nora, Ellasyn, and Katelyn were about to hold hands in a circle and spin around and right before they did, the little girl in the white outfit jumped in the circle. Although Katelyn had never met this little girl (Nora and Ellasyn knew her though) she was more than happy to have her in the circle. I wish we were all this welcoming to new friends.

I built a fort with Katelyn. It comes complete with a Dora couch & a DVD player :)

I went to Olive Garden with Beth and David & some of their friends from church (Ashlei, Alison, Nathan, Kara,& Kimberly). They brought us a glass full of mints...great way to end the meal!

I attempted to make what was supposed to be the best broccoli ever...mine was not! It didn't help that it burned. I also ruined the potatoes.

Justin & Jennifer had several of us over for dinner (actually for very yummy breakfast food) to celebrate some good news that they both got this week. This is Casey with Kate & Nora aka the most fun seat in the house! Nora is ready for her baby sister Lila to get here...but that's ok b/c I am too!

Adam, Casey, & I went to the Baron's game. It was HOT, but we still had a great time. Casey was pretty pumped about eating ice cream out of a baseball helmet.
Casey & Adam's embarrassing moment:



Wearing the same shoes! Different color insoles of course :)

This is a card that a friend gave me during a difficult time. I found it while cleaning out my night stand, and it provided encouragement once again!

Katelyn is being such a sweet big sister. She is always wanting to hold them....with supervision of course. Here she is loving on Blake.

Daniella made this letter for my office. I LOVE it and it matches perfectly. The push pins are super cute too! I am glad that even though she is all the way in Texas she can still do my crafts for me =)

Channell Party of 5 came home today! I am so thankful that both Blake and Bailey were healthy and able to come home!

We experimented with Bailey's hair accessories today. I think the flower is a little big for now...but she'll grow into it soon enough!

I finally got my picture holding both of them.

Blake and Bailey Channell are finally here! There were really too many cute pictures, but I had to choose these. This is Beth getting to see Blake (top) and Bailey (bottom) for the first time. I am so proud of my sister and can't wait to spoil my new niece and nephew!

Casey gave me 2 of these for Blake & Bailey...she even had a shirt for Katelyn! I can't wait to have their picture made in them!

Mr. Buddy Andoe (a Five Points church member) brought me some of his tomatoes today. It made my day that he thought to bring them to me...and I LOVE tomatoes!

Although this shouldn't be called Project 365 anymore, I do plan to start again on July 1st!

Mrs. Sue Sullivan brought me this to say Happy Valentine's Day.

The 11th & 12th grade Sunday School class gave Jeff, April & Kate Coleman a surprise baby shower. This is the cake that Cherub Grace made. Too cute!

Not sure if this qualifies as a truck hoarder or not, but it definitely comes close!
