Drew Turns 7!

Drew celebrated his birthday with a party at home with his family. His favorite gifts: his Wii Game and Mario Cart. And, don't forget about the other games that he got, too, for his Wii!

Spring Break 2008

We spent the weekend in Pensacola and visited McGuire's Pub. :-) Drew did not like it and was ready to go as soon as we got there. Natalie loved it!

Snow Fell in Alabama!!!!

The kids were so excited when school let out and there was snow falling! Then, we got more on the following Saturday!

New Year's Eve 2008

We celebrated with fireworks at the Harp's house on 12/31/07. Had a great time! Andy and his brother Paul did a wonderful job with the fireworks display!

Here is Natalie, cousin Caleigh, cousin Laurel, cousin Eli, and brother Drew.

Natalie loves sparklers!

So does Drew!

Christmas at the Harps

Christmas began with the Harp family making a Panda cake. Drew loves panda bears, so we decided on the black and white bear. It was so good. You mix a pound cake mix with a regular yellow cake mix. So good! I think Andy might have carpal tunnel syndrome after decorating it!

Next in the oven was Christmas cookies for Santa. Drew choose ginderbread for the big guy while Natalie stuck with chocolate chips. The kitchen smelled so wonderful!

Then came Christmas eve! We had a wonderful time at the Harps and got to see aunts and uncles and cousins -- and opened presents!

Natalie got lots of wonderful gifts - new PJs. So did Drew.

Santa arrived at our house at 1:30 a.m.! Natalie heard him and woke all us up! She got her North Face jacket and iPod.

Then Christmas Day and we traveled to my sister's house and had a great time.

This is me, my brother, Tom, my sister Laura, my sister Lynda, and my mother, Barbara.

Halloween 2007

Natalie and Drew celebrated Halloween this year as a witch and a ninja. We had a great time at the Southside Community Fall Fest. They got lots of candy and treats. Granddaddy loved to see his babies dressed up. Grandmother loved her little witch! :-)

Natalie's End of Year Soccer party

Natalie's soccer team, the Flames, finished the season last week with their first win of the season! They celebrated with a team party at the soccer fields. Coach Alan was covered with whipped cream! She had a wonderful time on the team and wants to play again in the spring! She received a trophy and a medal. Drew had fun, too, with cousin Eli, eating pizza!
