No tornado will keep me away!
The Peter Moon Band. In case you don't know our history with this band I'll fill you in. Alfred and I heard them on our 2nd date at Bailey's and feel in love with thier music. We put the CD on and dance to there music all the time. We danced our first dance to their song "For the Rest of my Life" at our wedding. We have seen them countless times. I have pictures of me 7 months pregnant at Flying Saucer with the band! We love them. Since having Kingston, however, we haven't gotten the opportunity to see them as often as we used to so when the storm of the year was bearing down on us and everyone was suggesting we maybe shouldn't make the trip to Murfreesboro, I said the heck with that I have a baby sitter and I'm going! We got to Murfreesboro to meet some friends and headed to the club. On our way there the sky got really dark and the stop lights went out. We got over by Marty and Liz Shoes and noticed the roof was collapsed and there was sheet metal in the power lines. We narrowly missed some sort of tornadic weather. But we pressed on! And the result was amazing. We were the only 6 people to show up so we got an exclusive Peter Moon Band Show!! Front Row, Dance floor to ourselves, singing the songs along with the band as loud as we wanted! It was another wonderful Peter Moon Band adventure!

1st Birthday Party!!
Kingston got lots of books, some DVD's, a basketball hoop, a drum, some clothes, an upgraded hammer that lights up. Money to buy shoes! It was a great day to be a King!
And of course getting to eat as much cake as possible!! Which he took full advantage of!
Here's mimi, pawpaw, Kingston and Noah enjoying some of the party food!And here's the 3 of us looking a little different than we did just a year ago!!I think the difference comes with a little more confidence that yes we can do this! We can raise a respectful little boy who knows the joys of life and how much he is loved!! And Kingston is confident that we will always be there for him no matter what! It's great to be an Eller!

Happy 4th Birthday Laney Jane!!
Yesterday for St. Patty's Day we met some people I work with at Noshville Deli before we went to work and before Kingston went to daycare! They had a fund raiser for March of Dimes and 1/2 of the proceeds went to the charity.
They offered Green Eggs and ham, however, the only one brave enough to try it was Alfred :)!! I stuck with the BLT!
The Crew!
And of course Kingston and I had to have our picture taken with the pickle :)!! Again he's completely mesmerized!
Hope you have a great week!

Busy as Can Be
We woke up Saturday to the most beautiful weather, which was perfect since we were going to get our family pictures taken by our friend Sarah who is an amazing photographer! We went to this beautiful battle ground she knew of, which was not only a beautiful back drop for pictures but also a fun place to hang out! It was such a fun photo shoot! And our little baby model was amazing! He didn't fuss one time!
After our day as celebs :)we dropped Kingston at our friends Phil and Elizabeth's and Alfred and I headed downtown to our friend Shay and Glen's wedding reception at Noshville on Broadway! It was another wonderful time and our first wedding related event that we've been to as husband and wife!
Monday while I headed back to work Alfred caught up with Phil and Riley and they had a daddy and son day at the zoo! I would have pictures but I accidentally took the camera to work with me :)!
Last night I headed out to Bellvue to play Bunco with my group! Where I won $20 for getting the most baby buncos with 13! Woot Woot!
Maurisa and I after bunco
I had a wonderful weekend but it sure was nice to come home tonight sit on the back deck and read a book while Kingston played! And when we came in he was so excited from being outside he couldn't stop clapping (yes he claps with anything in his hands)!I hope you have a wonderful week we will be relaxing for our next big weekend!
