Little Bunny Foo Foo!

Lila enjoyed a nice Easter at church, where she of course did not sleep, and then a fun afternoon with her friends Mason and Will. She loved the Easter Eggs, especially the ones with candy in them to shake! We could not get her to keep her bow in, but by the end of the day she was not only bowless, but hoseless and shoeless too so I guess it didn't matter!

Yeah for the First Day of Spring!

Now if only it would warm up! Lila loves to jump (or I should say hop) on our neighbors trampoline. Mr. Coben came over to join us. Since I don't have permission yet from friends to post their children's pictures I will refrain from doing so. Here is cute snapshot of Lila excited to see Coben.

Like, Totally Gag me with a Spoon!

Michael and I had the privilege to attend an 80's murder mystery party hosted by the founder of MAQUANET! (Notice my bottle of it in hand.) I smelled like the East Ridge Middle School girls bathroom from 1989 for days. I had to wash my hair 5 times to get all the stickiness out! I will say, getting those big bangs was like riding a bike. It came back to me so naturally. It was kind of scary! :) We had a great time as everyone was dressed in character and had to play that character all night. That was hard, but fun! Michael was an 80's breakdancer trying to get an agent. I (Talex Towens) was a narcaleptic jazz dancer aspiring to be a breakdancer. Shaggo Goo Oxide (Michael) was not very happy with me at the party because Moe Jontana wanted to get me hooked up with his agent instead of Shaggy.

Baby Dedications

We had our baby dedication at church on Sunday March 9th. It was a wonderful service with a total of 18 kids being dedicated. The sounds of cries, squeals, and giggles filled the room and it was beautiful! Lila was an angel, even though the poor boy beside us didn't think so when she snatched his box of raisins right out of his hand. My mother did an amazing job on Lila's dress, which she made from the material of my wedding dress. Thanks Grandmother. You are the best! It was nice to have so many friends and family there even though it was a late night drive for many of them. We are truly blessed to be surrounded by such wonderful people.

New Additions

Lila is going to be a big sister! We had some pictures made on Valentine's as a way to share our good news. New Baby Harrell is expected to arrive Oct. 4th, 2008! Lot's of prayers please. Some days I think we are crazy. It will be fun though ( as my doctor says everytime we go for a visit and she sees Lila. )
