Cumberland Falls

Our Annual Family Trip to 

Cumberland Falls!

 

 

 Food: Lunch meat, fruit and sweet tea! 

Not to forget to mention some chocolate!

A few sodas to keep us awake won't hurt!

 

Charlie loves his fruit!
I'm so glad he's not a picky eater!

 I could start out with a "fruit of the spirit" joke-

but this truly is food for body and soul!

Needless to say, we had a very nice time! The park was virtually empty and the sound of water falling next to our "camp site" made you want to slip off to sleep and dream a dream!

With the beautiful scenery all about us,
I took the liberty to do a photo-shoot with Charlie.

They turned out nicely, I think!

 (love this one)

 

 

                                                                         

Now here are some random pictures of Charlie and Jeff playing, Wesley and Mommy and Wesley finally crashing on the blanket!

 
Here are the past three years of pictures of us at Cumberland!

We had to change the scenery this time and change the rock we sat on because there was a family picnicking right behind the original rock. All in all, we had an absolutely wonderful time!!! 

*After leaving the falls we ventured up to Mt. Vernon and had a wonderful dinner with out friends Jeremy, Jenni and there 3 little kids, Megan , Maddie and Luke! Maddie drove Charlie around in her Barbie jeep- he loved driving around the yard!!! I'd love to get him a car of his own one day! it would be cute watching Charlie and Wesley driving all around!! We got home that night at midnight and carried two sleeping boys to their beds! What a rejuvenating time it is to spend with good friends! 
Food, fellowship and fun!*

Happy Birthday Daddy!!!!

38 years ago today, March 4th- My Father and Mother in Law brought my HANDSOME, SMART, SELFLESS, WONDERFUL, AMAZING, HUSBAND Jeffrey Thomas into the world.

27 years later I fell in love with him.

2 years later I married him.

And he'll be the other half of my heart until the day I die.

This evening Charlie and I made Daddy his birthday cake!

It might not have been from scratch- but the icing was homemade! 

And it was very d'lishes! :)

 Here is Charlie helping me get all the ingredients together for the cake!

 The eggs!

Charlie sampling the chocolate to make sure it is sufficient to make the icing with!

The cake is done!

 Here is the icing on the double boiler contraption! Yummy!!!

Now the icing is done! Let it cool and it's ready to be put on the cake!

Yay! Cake is done and waiting for Daddy!!!

I love you Jeff.

I know you know it but I still love to let you know how much 

I need you and how happy I am to be the one you love.

Playing in Dada's Boots...

Charlie loves playing in his Daddy's boots! He watched Jeff tie his shoes and he squatted down and began to "tie" his shoes!! He watches Jeff do everything! He also loves his hats... :) Thought this was sooo cute!
