Charity Events and Family Fun Day! TourdeCure and a trip to the LR Zoo!

The Saturday before our babymoon, Wes rode 50 miles in the American Diabetes Association TourdeCure. He also raised the most money of all of the individuals in the event! Vi and I are soooo proud of him and had fun hanging out cheering Daddy on!

On Sunday, we had family fun day at the Little Rock Zoo. Violet loved it and thought the penguins were hilarious! We had fun all day with our little gal. Honestly, it is hard not too! Overall, she is growing too fast. She knows lots of words and sentences and is even testing out the potty! We are so amazed at her every day. She is also excited about Edie and likes to point and kiss Mommie's belly. We love our girls!


Where is Daddy?


There he is! Does not even look tired after 50 miles!

Having fun cheering for dad!


Violet was squealing with delight at the penguins swimming!

LOVES the penguins!

Also LOVES her ice cream cone! McDonald's ice cream...a family favorite!

Family Fun Day! Heifer Village

It was a cold, rainy Saturday so we took Violet to Heifer Village for Family Day. She had a blast coloring, making a collage and matching countries on the big map. Of course, Violet also loved running around like a wild child exploring the exhibits. She is so fun and full of life!!!


Now where is Peru?

I love to color!

Shhh...artist at work!

Family Fun Day! Wye Mountain Daffodil Festival

Grammie wanted to take the girls to the Wye Mountain Daffodil Festival so we made it a Henderson Family Fun Day and all bundled up to meet at the festival! Shannon, Cary and Emmy (Violet's godparents) also joined us which made it even more fun. The girls ran around in the flowers and then we all had a yummy picnic lunch (provided by Grammie and Popi!). Such a fun day!

Just woke up from a nap....so wanted Grammie only.

Emmy and Violet sharing a hug.

Good friends and godparents!

Oh my....two sis' pregnant!! One week apart!

I will give dad a little smile.


The girls LOVED their balloons. Thanks Popi!

Social Events: The Pengiuns are here!

We were so excited about the arrival of the penguins at the Little Rock Zoo! Violet loves the zoo, so we have a membership, which gave us the great opportunity to attend a members' after hours event to see the penguins. It was great and she loves them! She even does her own penguin dance :). March! March! March!

Holiday Hooplah: Valentine's Day!

Yes, so Easter is staring us in the face this weekend and I am just now getting to Valentine's Day! Where does the time go? Violet had a blast. We did Chocolate Festival at Whole Foods, cupcake Sunday and Hallie came for a Valentine's visit and Valentine's pancake Monday! It was so much fun. She is so full of life, it makes every day a holiday.

Decorating the cookie just right...

Dancing with Daddy!


So, may not be able to see here, but Hallie is pulling Violet by a string!

Two peas in a pod.

Absolutely LOVING the cupcake!
