Standiford Family

It’s hard to imagine that Kaden was born a year ago today. The time has gone by so fast and except for a few months he never really seemed like a baby.
First birthdays are exciting times, but also kind of tough because the individual celebrating doesn’t really get into all the hoopla. I [...]

We had the opportunity to celebrate with Amanda last week, but today is the actual day so I wanted to wish her a Happy 21st Birthday.  I hope you enjoyed your special day!

Friday Megan didn’t have school so we needed something fun to do.  I had watched Martha earlier in the week and she had made slime.  I thought that looked like something the girls would like to do.  So we did it.  It’s just a little glue, water, food coloring, and the important ingredient, borax soap.  [...]

Friday night Kelly took Mattey to a birthday party for a friend at her preschool. It was a pretend sleepover so she got to wear her pajamas which are probably her favorite thing to wear. She ate pizza and cake, played games, watched a movie and made a craft. Meanwhile back at [...]

I just posted some late Valentine pictures.  I wanted to take more pictures of that day but I needed another hand.  I did Mattey’s school party and I was doing too much to take pictures so there aren’t any from the party.  I will say it was a sucess.  The kids played "HEART" bingo, had [...]

Mattey had her St. Patrick’s Day party today since she doesn’t have school on Friday.  She was dressed in green from neck to toe.  She was really cute, green is a great color for her.  Kade and I got done really quickly at the doctor’s office this morning (His ears are finally good.) and had [...]

This week’s feature film, for Friday night’s Family Movie night, was Yours, Mine & Ours. This is a remake of a 1968 movie that originally starred Lucille Ball and Henry Fonda. It was a good movie and for once I actually stayed awake for the whole thing.
Saturday morning I cleaned out the “dark [...]

I was very concerned when my economics professor told us that we would be having a test the day after we came back from Spring break. The week off would be nice, but my memory is already bad enough without a week off. I was very worried that I would forget all the [...]

Today Mattey had show & tell and she was supposed to bring in something that starts with the letter M.  She told Mrs. Wright that she was going to bring herself in her bag for show & tell.  I thought that was pretty smart and cute.  Mattey couldn’t decide what she wanted to take.  She [...]

I finally put a few pictures together of what Kade’s been doing lately and added them to the gallery.  He turned 11 months already.  I’m not ready for him to be one yet.  There is a variety of things that this boy has been up to.  He is still pretty good and seems to [...]
