My dear cousin Amanda got married on Saturday so the whole Link crew decided to make a vacation out of it! My parents went down much earlier, but the Reeds, LeBlancs and Links headed up there mid-week. Our kids loved it because they got to miss a few more days of school...not bad since Spring Break was last week!!!<br />
<br />
We stayed in Bella Vista, a community where my parents have a timeshare and drove into Siloam Springs to visit with my Mema and other family that were in town for the wedding. We really enjoyed our time together and thanks to all of the good cooks in our family, we ate and ate and ate. On Friday night we introduced our spouses and kids to a Link family tradition and had dinner at the <a href="http://thevenesianinn.com/">Venesian Inn</a> in a little community called Tontitown.<br />
<br />
Although the weather got pretty chilly, it didn't stop my Dad, Bryan and Matt from playing lots of golf and Peyton and David got in one day of good tennis play. The kids enjoyed being outside playing at the park and exploring.<br />
<br />
The wedding was great and Amanda was a BEAUTIFUL bride. The look on her husband's face when he first saw her walking down the aisle was priceless! The reception was held in the really neat community center downtown and was so pretty decorated in the wedding colors of pink and gray. And the wedding cake...SO good!<br />
<br />
We had a wonderful time and need to make sure that we don't wait so long to all get together as a family again. I took tons of pictures but here are some my favorites.<br />

I took off on Tuesday because Peyton had a doctor's appt in Dallas, but other than that it's been a normal week for us. The boys have really enjoyed spending time with David in the mornings and getting more time with Grammy in the afternoons. <br />

<br />
The most exciting thing around here has been the start of March Madness. Each year David has had us fill out brackets so that we can keep up with tournament. This year we've had some extra fun because there is also a Link Family bracket. Everyone from my side of the family has submitted a bracket online...including <a href="http://thelinkhome.blogspot.com/2011/01/ultra-special.html">Pearson</a> who is playing in utero! After the first day my sister and I were tied for the lead. My bracket has suffered a few dings today, but hopefully it will all even out. Since my beloved Bears didn't make the big dance again this year, I'm pulling for the Jayhawks...GO KANSAS!!<br />

I'm really happy with it. Ashley at <a href="http://greatgrabbiedesigns.blogspot.com/">Great Gabbie Designs</a> did a <u>really</u> nice job of taking my big ol' wish list and then used her talents to come up with this cute design. Yeah! Of course now that means that I'm going to have to be better about blogging. We've got some fun stuff coming up so it shouldn't be too hard to get back into the swing of things. Of course, I may have to loosen up on my issue about having posts without pictures.<br />
<br />
SO....this is what's been up with us so far this week. It's Texas Public Schools Week here in the great state and the boy's school had a Parent Involvement Night on Monday. Preston and the rest of his Kindergarten classmates were supposed to perform a music program that they've been working on but the poor music teacher has been out with the flu and it had to be rescheduled. Instead we visited the various booths and collected our door prize tickets. Next, everyone headed to the cafeteria where we ate pizza and spread out tickets hoping to win. Sadly we didn't win anything but we definitely had a great time visiting with our friends the Smith's and the Cobb's.<br />
<br />
I also participated in another TPS Week activity by reading to the sweetest group of second graders at Terrell Elementary. I read <a href="http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Jamie-ORourke-and-the-Big-Potato/Tomie-dePaola/e/9780698116030/?itm=2&USRI=jamie+orourke+and+the+big+potato">Jamie O'Rourke and the Big Potato</a>, <a href="http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Cindy-Ellen/Susan-Lowell/e/9780064438643/?itm=1&USRI=cindy+ellen+a+wild+western+cinderella">Cindy Ellen -A Wild Western Cinderella</a> and some other book about an albino squirrel (weird!) . After I was done, Jonathan Cannon a reporter I work with a lot interviewed me about the importance of reading. <a href="http://www.heralddemocrat.com/hd/News/PIC-Denison-community-members-read-to-students">The story was on the front page of the paper</a> today which was pretty neat.<br />
<br />
That's all for now. Let me know what you think about the new design and drop by <a href="http://greatgrabbiedesigns.blogspot.com/">Ashley's blog</a> and let her know too. I bet she'd appreciate hearing from you!<br />

And let me tell you, it was cute! The kids sang quite a few of the songs that they've learned throughout the year. Preston was very serious about his first performance. It was kind of funny because the little girl standing next to him, Riley, was interested in just about everything else but singing. But not Preston, he sang and did his hand motions like a champ. </div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
After their singing they left the stage to don their cap & gowns-with pink tassels...they are Pink Elephants after all! There was a processional where each child received a certificate as their name was called. Preston was very intent on reading his! We've been reading quite a bit here lately and he's starting to recognize words and put together sentences. At one point as he was studying his certificate, he even followed along with his fingers. It was too cute. We're very proud of the progress he's made this year. Preschool started out pretty bumpy for our little guy, but it has ended perfectly!!!</div><div align="left" class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Each year instead of doing one big program with the whole school, they split it up by grades and do programs under one main theme. This year it was Famous Faces. Peyton and his classmates learned songs about some of the people that are on our money and their program was called Show Me the Money! Peyton's favorite song was about Andrew Jackson and was called Old Hickory. At one point in the show, the kids throw out some play money. Preston thought it was real and started to head to the stage to pick it up!!<br />
<br />
Even though we were on the second row, my camera didn't take any good pics, but it was Granddaddy to the rescue! Here are a couple of good ones that he took. <br />

There is no doubt that it's nice to be recognized, but really it's us mothers that should be so thankful for the blessing of our children. The sweet Reed boys were so excited for this day. Preston had been bursting all weekend to share with me what he and Bubba got me. He made me a sweet picture that included his hand prints at school. This morning they each brought in their gifts with the biggest smiles on their faces!! Peyton asked me to open the bag he was holding first. Inside was a yellow plastic, blinged out watch that I had wanted. He and I went to Charming Charlie's last week but couldn't find the watch I wanted in yellow, but surprisingly one made it into my gift bag along with some really pretty silver bangles. Magic!!<br />
<br />

Next up was the bag that Preston was holding. Apparently the boy's did their very own clothes shopping for me...and did a GREAT job!! Preston had picked out these cute pair of raspberry pants and Peyton picked out a super cute white T that has a little bling on the shoulders. This will be a great summer outfit!! I'm so proud of their thoughtfulness. We headed to church and afterwards had a super, yummy lunch at Loose Wheels. The weather today has been really cold and windy, so of course that called for a Sunday afternoon nap. After that we headed to G&P's for dinner. Pap grilled outside before the heavens opened up and we all enjoyed a steak & shrimp dinner. <br />

For over 20 years, Judy and her best friends have made the trek to this East Texas city the week after Thanksgiving for shopping, home touring and lots of laughter. So for her big birthday, she wanted all of our family to take a trip so that she could show us where they stay and what they do. We left early Saturday morning and took 2 cars. Gran drove me and the boys in our SUV while Norman drove David & James in theirs. We stayed at the <a href="http://www.fadedrosejefferson.com/">Faded Rose</a> ,the Bed & Breakfast where they've stayed for almost every one of their trips. The owner is practically family and it was nice to finally meet the woman that we've heard so much about all these years. We hit the historic downtown area and visited shops like <a href="http://www.beautyandthebook.com/">Beauty & the Book</a>, Blessings, Jefferson General Store, lots and lots of antique stores. The little Reed boys had a blast and even the big ones seemed to enjoy themselves too. <br />
<br />
We gave the birthday girl a tiara and a special birthday button that read: 60 and Sensational! She wore it with pride and got lots of birthday wishes from complete strangers. On Sunday, she even had a woman who was a professional singer sing Happy Birthday to her during lunch! And when we woke up on Sunday, her actual birthday, there was snow flying around. It was a GREAT weekend and a fun way to wrap up our Spring Break. <br />

Today was a really fun Saturday. The day started and ended at The Park (Our church, Parkside Baptist) At 9am we were there for a Preschool Pajama Party. Our church is filled with a great crew of folks that love our kiddos so today they invited them for a whole lot of PJ fun. It started with a yummy breakfast of pigs-in-blankets, mini-muffins and lots of fruit. After that the kiddos got to participate in some fun games like giving their favorite stuffed animal a ride around on a blanket in a race around a cone, a PJ relay race, and a hop in your pillowcase race. Preston wasn't too interested in participating in any of these games, but he did help Tria show the other kids how to do the relay race. After that we moved to the youth room in The ROC and watched the Veggie Tales movie about relying on God when you're afraid at night. They capped it all off with a fashion show where everyone showed off their PJs. That was something that our little P loved!! He is quite the ham and wasn't afraid to stand up and pose. He even whipped off his robe so that they could get a better look at what he had on...it was priceless!! </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: left;">Tonight we headed back up to the ROC for our Music Minister's Retirement Party. It was so awesome to see the new gym packed with people ready to celebrate Delbert & Shirley. Delbert has been at PBC for 30 years and has obviously left quite an impression on the hearts of those that know him. It was so funny to hear him get "roasted". It was a long night but the boys did SO good. What a blessing today was! </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/201/0614BBDF01F7C1FADFB0DC1A548C11F8.png" style="background: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px;" /></a></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

Our latest has been a health issue with Peyton. The best news is that his condition is easily treated with medication and is something that he will outgrow. But our first steps to treatment required a VERY early trip to a Dallas hospital this morning for an EEG. Peyton handled the whole appointment like a champ and even loved getting worked over by the tech...a woman from Leonard who used to work at WNJ and has a daughter that is a nurse at TMC...small world! She gave him the choice of getting his head marked up with a pencil or a sharpie-naturally he chose the sharpie! </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Of course dear old Dad had some fun in store for our guy after his successful visit that included a trip to Dick's Sporting Goods for some shopping and lunch at Which Wich, one of Peyton's favorite places to eat. And thanks to a sleepover with Grammy & Granddaddy, Preston was able to keep his normal schedule, which we all know is ever so imporant! When we got back home, and all took a nap, both boys got haircuts...probably something we should have done BEFORE Peyton's appt. </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

We went to the NBA All Star Game at the new Cowboys Stadium in Arlington. We were part of a Guiness Book of World Records crowd the included 108, 713 people! Although I have to admit that it really didn't seem like that many people. The game was a lot offun but it was a pretty subdued crowd. The boys liked it because there were lots of cool slam dunks but I liked it because there was lots of star gazing to do. The halftime music was done by Usher, Shakira and my favorite of the three Alicia Keys...that girl has got some pipes! Other notables in the crowd included Arnold Schwarzenegger, Shaquille O'Neal, Spike Lee, Magic Johnson and Carmen Electra. Preston stayed with Gran & Pap and had his own Valentine's Day fun!! <br />

And although I always look forward to these get togethers, the night brought with it some mixed emotions. Here's why: </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

It's been a little bit of a struggle because his team is made up of the youngest group of kids in the league, but most games he and his teammates are out there playing their best. So go Wildcats! Go #20!<br />

I had told my mom recently that I wanted to try on my wedding dress again sometime when we were at their home and last weekend I got that opportunity. I wanted to try it on again for a number of reasons that of course, included my recent weight loss, but also because it's been 11 years since I wore that big gob of tulle! And do you know what...I STILL love that dress! <br />

It's crazy to believe that that sweet little pink baby that I gave birth to on January 10, 2001 is only one year away from "double-digits"! And he makes sure to remind me of this often. <br />

</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Again this year, we spread out the birthday celebrations for our first-born. His actual birthday was on a Sunday, so after church we had lunch with Poppy & Nana and Aunt Amberly & Riley at Chili's. I think he was a little embarrassed when the waitstaff came to sing to him, but getting the fudgecake and ice cream made it all worth it! <br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">This year for his birthday party, Peyton decided that he wanted to go skating. Now this kid has really come a long way! Over the past two years whenever friends would have parties at the skate center, Peyton was content to stay at home. He would often tell me that he couldn't understand why someone would want to have a party where all they were going to do is fall down! But after several trips over the summer, my boy has decided that skating is not so bad after all. And although he did his fair share of falling, he always jumped up and got right back out there. It was a fun day and we are so thankful for the family and friends that were there to share it with him. <br />
