Gone Fishin

Today was McKinley's 1st fishing trip ever. We were very excited to be in the company of the master fisherman....Uncle Scott. Here is Uncle Scott, Addie and McKinley on the four-wheeler heading to the lake.

Uncle Scott get the kids ready to catch some BIG fish!
Addie helps McKinley.

Here is McKinley with his daddy.

Addie's daddy helps her bait her hook.

The twins came out to watch. Hopefully next year they will have a fishing pole in their hands!

I love this picture. Addie decided to snooze while fishing!

McKinley and his first fish.

Addie caught lots of fish. Here she is with one of them. Look at Uncle Scott in the background smiling. He must of taught her all his tricks.

Best Pals

Here is Addie with another fish!

Danny and McKinley look out at the lake.

Thanks again Uncle Scott for a great time. We can't wait to go again.

Kate's 2nd Birthday!

We celebrated Kate's 2nd Birthday last weekend. Here are some pictures from the party.

Kate really enjoyed her cake. She kept sneaking icing.

The kids had a good time playing toys.

McKinley liked playing in Kate's new playhouse.

I think this is Molly Margaret and her daddy. I think its a cute picture. Like father, like daughter....I don't know why they are being so serious!

The Kanner Family

I love this picture! I think it really captures their relationship!

Uncle Andy and Molly Margaret.

We all belong in the zoo!!!

McKinley went to the Atlanta Zoo today with some of his bestest friends! Most of them felt right at home with all the animals! We had a great time and cannot wait until we can get together again! Look at all the little birdies!

Monkey See, Monkey Do!

Speaking of monkeys......nice family portrait!

Fun pictures

McKinley and I spent the morning buying plants for the yard and house and the afternoon planting them! Here are some pictures from our day.

McKinley helped his Daddy cut grass!

Here is Ponch & Jon's new partner in training!

The newest ladybug addition.....Jake Brown

Holly and I went last night to visit Andrea and Jason's newest addition to their family, Jake. He is adorable and looks just like his daddy! Here are a few pictures from our visit.

Desperate times call for desperate measures

We have been having a really hard time getting McKinley to stay in bed at night. After several sleepless nights and many mornings getting up at 4:45ish we HAD to do something. We ordered this alarm clock in desperation. This alarm clock is straight from jolly ole England via the Royal Express. This is the first time I have ever had to buy something in pounds. Thank goodness for paypal and converting the currency. (just so you know the American dollar does NOT go very far in the UK) Anyway, here is McKinley's new alarm clock. We set the time to when we want him to wake up. The bottom half of the clock is a sleeping bunny. It stays lit up until its time for McKinley to wake up. Then the top bunny lights up. The clock had great reviews and is suppose to work. We shall see!

Look how sweet! He would be even sweeter if he would sleep past 5:00!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Karen Walker Weekend

This past weekend was the first annual Karen Walker Weekend. Why and what is a Karen Walker weekend? Karen Walker is a character from the show Will & Grace. Karen is a rich lady who lives her life shopping, and treating herself to nice lavish things. Holly and I thought that sounded really great, so our great husbands, Andy and Scott, gave us a weekend away at the spa. It was wonderful! We went to the Lodge and Spa at Callaway Gardens. We spent Saturday strolling through the antique shops and then had a nice dinner that evening. After supper we stopped in at the Lounge, order dessert to go and sat in the room in our pj's having girl talk, and enjoying our desserts. The next morning, we headed down to the spa, Spa Prunifolia. Holly headed back for her Hot Stone Massage.
I was a little nervous. This was my first trip to the spa. I was scheduled for the Evergreen Hot Towel Body Bliss....which was absolutely WONDERFUL!

Holly and I had such a great time that we decided that Karen Walker weekends should be more than annually.....more than bi-annually......we are thinking every week or at least every month! We did decide that the next time we go we need to take Rosario and a Jack! (there is some more Will & Grace humor for you....only true fans will enjoy!)

Easter 2008

Before we went to bed Saturday night, we hung out our special bunny key on the front door. This special key is suppose to help the Easter Bunny get inside the house.When we woke up the next morning, there was a trail of eggs leading from the front door to the kitchen.

We found the key, a note from the Easter Bunny, and McKinley's Easter basket.

The Stanfields: Uncle E, Baby Kate & Aunt TT

After church, we went to Nanny's for lunch and an egg hunt with Baby Kate.

Here is McKinley giving Big Red an Easter Egg. He thought that he needed one too!
