Basketball Fans

I love Tuesdays and Thursday during basketball season b/c I always get to see and cheer on the boys with my girlfriends. Last night there was a big game between #1 and #2 so it was very exciting! Thanks for the laughs and great fellowship Kari, Marsha, Jordan, Beth and Rachel :)

mrs. turley- why in the world are you making that face? ha

and there is it again :)

Hat Girls

Today my sweet friend Jordan took me to the well known Wake Forest girl spot -- the Old English Tea Room. I have been there several times before but have never went all out evidently ha! So we decided to put on the hats in honor of my birthday... and that is the ONLY reason ha! You all know I hate purple :) Thanks Jordan for being such an amazing friend and loving on my so much!!

Sickly

I cant seem to shake off the sickness! What started out as an eye infection on my birthday went to migraine and flu-like symptoms, and now sore throat and runny nose. Pray that I get better soon! We are going home to meet Tristan and I cant be sick around him for sure :)

Twins!

Twin Girls.. how exciting! This weekend we had a shower for Karen Lytle and she prepares to welcome Karissa and Kathleen in May. There was so much PINK I loved it :)

New pictures of Tristan

Robin got to see Tristan last Thursday when he went in for a doctor's check up and she sent these pictures. Here he is at 2 weeks old and she says he is gaining weight and almost out of his premie clothes... how tiny!!! Gosh I cannot wait to hold him in my arms :)

More Birthday...

I wanted to show off my CUTE card that my co-workers made for me. They are so sweet!! We had my party here at the office yesterday since I was not here on my birthday. They are so good to me and I am grateful for such a great crew to work with!
And these are the pretty flowers that my Mom sent me! There hasnt been many birthdays that she has not sent me either flowers or balloons... and yes even though I am not in school anymore she still spoils me. Thanks mom :)

Birthday Surprise!

One Monday night we went out to dinner with the Graham's for my birthday to Red Robin. What I thought was going to be a normal night just going to dinner turned out to be a lot more than I expected.

Elizabeth and I

loving being sang to... I like the birthday song :)

After leaving dinner we all went back to our house to what I thought was going to be playing ping pong with the 4 of us. Can you tell by the look on my face that there was shock that had just came over me haha! What I thought were burglars in our home who were about to shoot at me as soon as I walked in the door (why I am backing up toward JR in the picture) turned out to be my closest friends surprising me!!! JR set it all up and he did SOOO well... it was my first ever surprise party and I was truly shocked. I seriously could not stop shaking b/c they scared me so bad :)hugs all around

my BIG birthday cake with special strawberry filling.. yummy!

all the girls

me and the Walkers

Thank you to everyone who came! You truly made my birthday the most special one yet :) And JR I cant thank you enough for getting it all together. I am glad all of my hints paid off hahah!

What an amazing birthday present!

Yesterday was a bit of a whirlwind to say the least ha! I went to the Todd's house at 9:30am, and thank goodness I did because she was already at 6 cm!!! Isaac James Todd was welcomed at 3:30pm weighing 7 lbs and 10 oz and he is beautiful :) It was so amazing to be there with them during this special time... as I was the first one to hold him outside the family when he was only 3 hours old! Christina did great and of course Jay was a proud daddy of his first son. Maisy and Lily did not know quite what to do at first, but as you can tell in the pictures they warmed up to him just fine, wanting to hold his hand. JR and I are so grateful for the Todd family of 5 and we love them dearly. I can definitely say that I will never forget my 25th birthday that is for sure ha! How awesome is the gift of life and even more so on your birthday b/c you realize that you once were that small... WOW!



After leaving the hospital, I went to my basketball game and we were able to pull out a victory YAY! I really wanted to thank everyone who sent me birthday wishes and I apologize that I was not able to answer my phone... as you can see I was kindof busy ha! I promise to return calls and emails soon. I am one lucky girl to have so many people who are so kind to me :)

Baby Isaac

I got the day off for my birthday!! I received a phone call from Christina this morning about 9:30 saying that she was having contractions, so I quickly loaded up and came to their house. Maisy, Lily and I are having fun playing games and watching movies :) We are just waiting until baby Isaac arrives so we can go and hold him. How fun that he is coming on my birthday!!! Pray for the labor that it would go smoothly and safely. I will post again soon to tell the sweet story about what my husband did for my birthday.

Thank you to everyone for all of my birthday wishes :)
