Update: He did awesome this morning on the radio.

Life is Great!

I did it

Yep I did it. I accidentally deleted all the pictures for the weekend off my camera. I am very upset at this moment since I had a great picture of all of us... Grandma and Grandpa Snyder, Michael, the kids and me. We had a WONDERFUL weekend. I really did not take a ton of pictures but that one was a keeper.
This weekend there was strawberry picking, lunch downtown, beach, krispy kreme, birthday dinner and gifts, fireworks, and watching mom and dad Snyder enjoy our kids.

On my way outside this morning....
to take a picture of this beautiful flower....
I walked by Emma with camera in hand and she started saying "CHEESE". I guess she is so used to me taking pictures of HER

5 Kids

Isabelle, Jackson, and Jack

Last night I invited Griffin over so his mommy and daddy could go on a much needed dinner date. Next came over two neighbor kids to play with Jack. Having five kids was so much fun... I would not want to have five kids all the time but for one night... I could handle it. Emma was so jealous of baby Griffin. Anytime Griffin was being held by me or sitting on my lap, so was Emma. HA

Nate's Party

Look at these kids... how cute. We had a wonderful time at Nate's(or as Jack has to call him, Nathan's) 4th birthday party.

Happy Birthday Michael

Happy Birthday Honey. We had a great day celebrating Michael birthday. Breakfast at Boodles, beach, and then date-dinner. I think he had a good one!

Downtown

I am working downtown a few days a week while a friend of mine is on maternity leave. She just adopted a newborn baby boy. I will get to meet him this weekend. So today after having a quick lunch with Megan, I spent the rest of my lunch break enjoying the beautiful downtown. It was so nice to enjoy the great weather and take in the sites.

Cousins

Easter

My sister-in-law (Kristen), brother-in-law (Brandon), and their three kids Morgan (7), Owen (4), and Ellen (2) came Friday by lunch and stayed til Monday morning. We had a nice time with them. We went to the beach to play and have a cook-out. We had several Easter egg hunts, two trips to the park, Airlie Gardens for sunrise service, and a Easter dinner at our house that also included my parents and Megan, Vinny, and Griffin.

Beautiful!

Happy Birthday!

Happy 29th Birthday Mommy! You are the best Mom in the World!

Love,
Jack, Emma, Hershey, and Michael

Mommy-Emma Time

Michael had a late meeting and Jack had a sleep-over last night so I had Emma-time. It was wonderful. I think Emma really enjoyed getting all the attention and being the only child.

Pictures

My cousin Ashley from PA drove down to Charleston with her new baby while we where there. Baby Mason is so sweet.

Kayli and Zach drove back to Wilmington with us since they are on spring break.

Steeler Boys

Yesterday- azalea festival, beach, and jungle rapids. Busy busy busy.

Today I met the kids at Chuck E Cheese for lunch.

Race Day

A great weekend in Charleston! Friday morning my dad, Michael, Jack, Emma, Zach (who played hookie from school), and I went downtown. Boy, I love Charleston! If Michael, the kids, and I would ever move somewhere, it would be Charleston. Anyway. We walked around the "Market Place" and took a carriage ride. Then it was off to the kids races. The kids race is such a terrific event. There are games, blow-up jumpy things, food, and music all for the kids. Jack, Zack and Emma all did awesome it their races.

All three kids

Saturday morning, waiting to see Daddy run. The Cooper River Bridge Run is 6.2 miles. You start in Mount Pleasant(just north of Charleston) and run over the big bridge and then through beautiful downtown Charleston. Michael also had a great run himself.

Life Insurance

Yes, this is the company that my dad owns. He is an amazing man and will help you make the best decisions for your family. He is not pushy at all... he is all about doing what is best for you. I put this on my blog, because I truly believe you need to have life insurance and REALLY need it if you have children. You guys know I worry about everything. Well, since I have life insurance, I don't have to worry as much. I know that if something happens to me that Jack, Emma, and Michael will financially be taken care of. So get a hold of him. He works with anyone in the state of North Carolina and Pennsylvania.

* If you are not able to listen to the radio ad above, this is what it says:

Life insurance isn't about your life. It’s about the loved ones in your life who rely on you. It’s about security…… It’s about protecting the ones you love. Most people either do not have any life insurance or not enough to protect their loved ones financially in event of their death. Now more than ever, you must provide for your family’s financial future.

At The Don Lehmer Insurance Agency, we can design a life insurance program that’s right for you and most importantly, your loved ones. We offer term, universal, and whole life insurance plans from a multitude of “A” rated companies. By working with multiple companies, The Don Lehmer Insurance Agency can shop for the best plan at the best price for you. We even offer some plans that require no blood samples or paramedic visits.

Even if you bought a term policy within the past few years, the Don Lehmer Insurance agency can review it for free and quite possibly save you money as some insurance companies have lowered their premiums.

As a full-service insurance agency, The Don Lehmer Insurance Agency also offers annuities and health insurance including standard health care, medicare supplements, and disability.

The Don Lehmer Insurance Agency is conveniently located at The Landfall Executive Suites at 1213 Culbreth Drive Wilmington. Call us today 910-509-7183 or visit our website www.donlehmerinsurance.com

April Fools!

We brought the can of "candy" into school today so Jack could play tricks on his teachers.
We probably played that trick 10 times this morning. One of the times Jack said to me, "Mommy do you want some snakes!!!" Ha.
