Brighten's Got Talent














A couple of weeks ago we attended the Brighten Talent Show.  It was so much fun and all the kids did such a good job.  Thank you once again Brighten Academy for such a great event!


100 Days of School!




Oh just look at that cute little old Grandma and Papa - aren't they just the cutest!  They are all dressed up for the 100th Day of School!  Yes, can you believe it we have been in school for 100 days - WOW time flies.  The kids had so much fun dressing up for this event.  They just couldn't wait.  They kept asking is today day 100, is today day 100.  So sweet.  They also got to do lots of fun things related to 100 at school today.  Brighten is great - thanks for making my kiddos 100 days smarter!!! :)

We're at the BEACH!!!















Over MLK weekend we headed to the Hilton Head to visit with Grandma, Papa, Aunt Sandy and Uncle Fred.  We had a great time and weather was wonderful.  As you can see from the pictures the kids had a ball at the beach.  They were a big mess but they loved it and I guess that is all that matters.  Phillip had a great time because he loved and food and he got to go golfing which he hasn't done in years.  He didn't do to great but he had a great time.  I loved it because I got to do some shopping.  Thanks Grandma and Papa - we will see you at the end of Feb.

Iggy the Piggy!








Oh Iggy the Piggy is doing so well.  As you can see she is growing and loving life with the Lester's!  She is a sweet little piggy and doesn't she just look so cute with her little polka dot fashion accessory.  Thanks Grammy!  Grammy made it for her for Christmas along with a matching blanket and some fun toys.  We are all really enjoying little Miss Iggy.  She is still sleeping in the bathroom as our research says you should keep them contained so they can feel safe and gain your trust.  She is doing well with this.  She is also doing very well with her potty/litter box training.  Overall, she is a pretty easy pet.  She gets fed twice a day - morning and night.  She drinks quite a bit of water.  She has just recently learned how to get up and down the stairs and she is loving that and so are we - not!  If we want her down she goes up - if we want her up she goes down.  It is really funny.  We have started to try to teach her some tricks.  She is doing okay but I am not sure we got the "smart" piggy!  She loves Cheerios and vegetables.  So far life with a pig has been fun...we will see what is to come!
