Sleeping position of choice for Addison

Addison at the Park

This past weekend, Addison went to the park. As you can tell from the pictures, she had tons of fun.

Dad's Retirement Party

My dad had his retirement party at Olde Oaks Golf Club in Bossier City. We had a great time with family and friends. Some of the friends who attended have turned into family over the years. I'm very thankful for all the people who have came into my life.

Spring Break in Orange Beach

This past Spring Break, we took a much needed family vacation. John, Addison, and I packed up and went to Orange Beach, AL. We stayed for 5 whole days. We also celebrated Easter there. We had so much fun. We hung out at the beach, went to the new boardwalk, went on a dolphin cruise, and spent time together as a family. We also discovered Addison new love for eating sand and her hatred for the Easter Bunny. Here are a few pictures of our trip.

Spring has come and is about to be gone!

Well, I haven't blogged in a while! The Barron family has been super busy. We went to the beach for Spring Break and had a great time. Just myself, John, and Addison. We stayed for a whole 5 days. It's was great, just the 3 of us. Addison went on her first dolphin cruise and saw so many dolphins. I'll post beach pictures later. My camera cord suddenly went missing. Spring football has started and I just had my cheerleader try outs. For those of you who don't know, I am the cheerleader sponsor for Caldwell Parish High School. We ended up with 18 girls. In the midst of all the crazyness, we are trying to buy a house. We have found one in West Monroe. We are closing on May 15th and we could not be more excited.

A little news on Addison...She is getting soooooooooooo incredibly sassy! She has learned how to get her way. She definately has her daddy wrapped around her little finger. She is talking so much more these days, but I just have no clue what she is saying. It's really cute though. Here are a couple of pictures that were taken from Morgan Photography in Bossier City.

Addison's Teeth

We were at a basketball game earlier this year and Ms. Penny Sue, a photographer for the newspaper here in Columbia, asked Addison to show her her teeth! Addison surely did that!

Dad's Pinning Ceremony

This past weekend, my dad's company had their 5 year & 10 year employee pinning ceremony. My dad is one of the founders for Cellxion, a telecommunications company in Bossier City. For the past 12 years he has served as Vice President. It started as a dream of 3 individuals and has turned into a multimillion dollar company. This year he has chosen to retire. He has put a lot of hard work in this company and now wants a little break. At this ceremony, my dad made his final farewell retirement speech. It was wonderful. I am very proud of him for all the hard work he has done!

Bowling

This past weekend, John, Addison, and I packed up and went to Bossier for the weekend. While we were there, my cousin, Christian had his 8th birthday party at the bowling alley. My sister, John, and I decided to bowl a few games. My mom said she would watch Addison. Well, Addison saw everyone else bowling and decided she wanted to bowl too. Here are a few pictures from the big event!

St Patrick's Day!

Well, Addison and her daddy have on their green for St Patrick's Day. I however don't and have lready gotten pinched by one of my kids at school!

Our bow situation

Addison has been having troubles keeping her bow in her hair! She absolutley hates bows! When she doesn't have one in, her hair is in her eyes and I HATE THAT! She needs a hair cut in the worst possible way. She looks so cute in her bows! I'll say to her, "Oh Addison, you look so pretty!" As soon as I say that, she immediately feels her head to see if she has a bow in her hair! Well, now I've started putting her hair back with a rubberband instead of just her bow. Well, she has figured out how to take that out too! AHHHHH! It drives me nuts!
