Cheer!

McKenzie and her medal!
McKenzie has enjoyed another year of Cheer and Tumble (actually more tumble then cheer). In watching McKenzie for the last two years, she has grown from somersaults all the way to back handsprings with cartwheels and roundoffs in between...bounce-bounce-bounce. McKenzie is always glad to have Mom and Dad in the crowd but she was absolutely beaming when she saw Mrs. Barley (her best study buddy and her third grade teacher).
Thank you Mrs. Barley for being the BEST!

Girls Weekend!

While the guys went fishing off the coast of Carolina Beach, McKenzie and Mom ventured out of town for a "BLISSful" Girls Weekend with my sister, Leigh, and my niece Caroline. The little girls were pampered starting early Saturday morning with manicures (not sure of the exact Salon name but I remember the cosmetologist was Brittney) followed by a great lunch at The Village Tavern. Later that evening the little ones were pampered again by the full body soakings, pedicures and facials at The Bliss Spa. To top the day off we all enjoyed the well deserved warm sugar cookies and milk while waiting on our toes to dry. Cooper even got into that action a little bit. Thanks Scott for allowing us the fun "girl time" while you and Cooper had some fun "guy time". Look forward to visiting again!

Happy Mother's Day!

For all the times your patience tested, your great cooking fed to the dog or slide under a plate rim, your "words of wisdom" ignored......a simple day like today puts everything back in perspective. From the homemade card, kisses, hugs and giggles shared to the cool kid wanting to introduce his mom to his cool friends (which happened to me today) to the child who simply comes home to be close. May your Mother's Day be blessed!
And to my Mom....Thank You......Happy Mother's Day with LOVE!

What a "blissful" day!

Happy Anniversary to Leigh and Scott Bliss. It always slips up on me and I always second guess myself by thinking it is August.......oh well.......Congrats on another year!
