Birthday Parties & Field Trips.....

Claire & I have been under the weather for the past week, so sorry about the lack of pictures. Jesse had his 6th Birthday Party last weekend & had a blast. The kids did cosmic bowling & had so much fun! It was Claire's 1st Birthday Party to attend, & she just took it all in!
Look at the handsome birthday boy!!
Towards the end of the party, she couldn't hold her little eyes open any longer.

Love, Gretchen

Happy Birthday & Happy Easter!!

We finished up a fun week last week with Jesse's 6th Birthday on April 6th & we went to Jackson, MS for Easter Weekend, where both of the kids had lots of Easter fun. Lance's sister, Tracey, threw Jesse an impromptu birthday party complete with gifts & a huge Birthday cookie, which Jesse loved!

Back to normal....

Well, the wedding has passed, & all is back to relatively normal here in the Hollingsworth household. Jesse & Claire love each other to pieces! Claire is eating like a horse & doing new things every day. She enjoyed seeing all her new family members at the wedding! Claire with her cousins Dylan & Patrick at the rehearsal!
