Gamecocks and Cotton Candy

There was a Carolina basketball game on Mary Beth's birthday so we helped her celebrate by cheering on the Gamecocks!

With the exception of a couple of mouthfuls, Jackson ate an entire big bag of cotton candy all by himself!! He was loving it too!

The Carlisle Fam

Girlfriend Time!!

I look forward to February every year!

Not because two of my children were born in that month.

Not because two of my grandchildren were born in that month,

Not because it's Valentine's Day.

But because that is when we hold our annual

GIRLFRIEND TRIP!!!

Lauralan, Brenda, Libbi, Me, Lynn and Pamelia

These girls keep me sane! Are they doing a good job?!?!?

We had a blast in Myrtle Beach!

Yep, we're getting old but it doesn't stop us from having fun!

Andrew was such a trooper! He volunteered to carry all our packages for us and even our purses! He's just practicing for when he gets married!

It's pretty sad when you have a Suburban and can't get all your shopping bags in it!

Once again, Andrew came to our rescue.

He loaded his car from top to bottom and drove all our wares back to Lexington for us!

You da man, Andrew!!

Thanks girls for another great getaway!

I love you all!

Can we do it again - real soon???

You've Had a Birthday, Shout Hooray!

February 10 was Mary Beth's birthday!

What a special little girl she was and

what a wonderful woman she is today!

You can always count on Mary Beth!

She makes me proud to be her momma!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

I love you Sunshine!

(Does this picture remind you of another little

blonde headed girl???)

Today's your birthday, no wait......

Actually, February 8 was Hunter's birthday.

Hunter Baby!

I used to sing that to Hunter when he was a baby.

(To the tune of "Santa Baby")

Can you believe he is 10! He told me he wished he was 14!!

Humm, I'm thinking church dances was on his mind!

I love you like crazy, Hunter!

Happy Birthday!!

Happy Birthday Peyton!

February 6 was Peyton's birthday. He's 9! Oh, my! How time flies!

I remember when he was just a baby, like the picture below.

Just look at those cheeks!

Peyton was and still is our little mischievous child.

Don't turn your back on him!

You might get surprised!

I love you dearly, Peyton!

Happy Birthday!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KENNY!

Today is Kenny's birthday.

I remember the day he was born like it was yesterday and not 33 years ago!

He has always been just as kind and loving as he is now.

As you can see, he was always the helper.

( I'm not quite sure what he is feeding Christi but if I had to guess, I would say it is oatmeal!)

Happy Birthday Kenny!

I love you more than you'll ever know!
