And GOODBYE to Life as we know it!

Lydia Jean Tubbs was born Monday, February 4th at 7:45 am.  Lydia weighed 6 lbs and 6 oz when born and was 20 inches long.  She was perfectly healthy and beautiful!  We were in the hospital 3 nights and came home Thursday.  Grandma and Grandpa Tubbs were here, as well as Aunt Kimberli.  We are so thankful for them to help out and be part of this special moment.  Since they were here Alan gave Lydia her name and blessing Sunday February 10 at our home.  We had a few friends come over as well.  (The Kimes, Daniels, Frosts, and Mills)

Someone from Alans work gave him two tickets to the Nutcracker at the Fox Theatre and we gave them to Kalin on her birthday for her and I to go.  She loved it and thought the whole place was beautiful and fancy! 

 

 

 

 

 

Seven Sweet Years!

Happy Birthday to Kalin!!!  On her birthday we went out to dinner (La Parilla) as a family to celebrate and then had a party on the weekend.  It was a family party and Kalin wanted it to be decorated with pink and pandas.  She got an outfit for her American Doll (Sophie) and Alan and I made a bed for her as well.  Kalin is such a joy to be around!  She is very kind-hearted and thoughtful.  She loves everything about life and especially likes to write songs and sing.  Kalin also enjoys making things for others (mostly drawings and sweet little notes).
