March 2011

Life gets busy and I seem to have a hard time keeping up on this blog. So with Douglas having a new work schedule, I am determined to catch up and hopefully stay that way. Here are a few (21) pictures that prove that we still exist and that we had a wonderful month of March.

March is always an important month because we celebrate our Wedding Anniversary. It's been 9 years! Wow, times goes by fast! Life has changed in so many ways in 9 years but one thing has stayed the same: Douglas and I are still crazy about each other. He is such a fantastic husband and father and I couldn't get through life without him. He is my help meet, my best friend and the coolest guy I know. I am SO lucky!

So anywho, we celebrated our anniversary with date night the weekend before our actual anniversary because it's always during spring break. Always fun to have a date night just the two of us.

For spring break we headed to Grandma and Grandpa Williams

Gracie and Grandpa holding hands on the back porch. So sweet!

Story time with Grandma Darlene

Early in the morning we drove to Carlsbad Caverns in New Mexico

Gracie was SO happy to be out of the car!

It's quite a huge hole in the earth!

The whole group

Our little family and everyone is smiling!

Later in the hotel...

Gracie decided to draw a mustache on her face. Too funny!

The next day we drove to Ruidoso, NM and did some hiking.

This was our actual anniversary so we had to take a picture as a couple.

More hiking:

Then we found a playground

Like Son, like Mother?

Such a handsome guy

All together now

More hiking, but Marley was too tired this time and

Gracie was sleeping in the car with Grandma

Lunch break

We had such a great vacation and love spending spring break away from reality.

Last but not least my sweet friend Donna had a baby shower and I got to make her cake. It was very fun and a great learning experience! Plus I got to cut and taste it at the shower. Yum!
