Johnson Ferry School Christmas Program featuring Taylor Kate McCook!

Hey everyone! Wanna see pics from our school Christmas program? Both Luke and I got to sing songs! Since Luke sang first, he said I could do my blog posting first. He's such a good brother!

Ready, Set...



Sing!




Can you (pretend) to hear me singing "Happy Birthday, Jesus"?




Have you noticed that I get really serious when I'm trying to do well at something? My family thinks that it is adorable!




We got to bow. I love to bow!




And we got to take pictures with the tree right afterwards - Fun!!




Merry Christmas from snowy Atlanta!!

Me (Luke!) at TK's Party

Ok, so my Sissy is 5 and I'm still 3... But I'll be 4 in 4 short months!!

Did you know that in our family, the other kid gets a present (or two) at the party too?

LOOK AT MY NEW SHIELD!!




And the cake? DE-licious!




So delicious that I had 2 pieces!




My 2nd present? MY DADDY'S ORIGINAL LUKE SKYWALKER FIGURINE!!




Folks, you have no idea how much I love Stars Wars even at my early age of 3! My Daddy has been saying, "Luke, I am your father" since I was tiny baby!

I also got a treasure chest with loads of toys inside it!




Now I'm sorry to admit that Daddy had to have a talk with me at one point but it was really just that I was tired. It had been a long day!




But we were fine after that! A boy still loves his Daddy even after some slightly needed discipline. ;-)




I wonder what kind of party I'll have in April...!!!

TK's Birthday - Part 4, Presents!!

Family and Friends, I am blessed! Blessed with a wonderful family that spoils me just a little bit but I don't take it for granted! (and I write some pretty awesome thank you notes!).

I got an Ariel Precious Moments figurine! And folks, I sure love Ariel!




And I was so excited about my first ever Wii game, Enchanted Princesses, that all I could do was hug it -




"Oh my goodness!!!" It was Jessie from Toy Story!!







Even my Build a Bears got presents, new Bama and Auburn outfits! Roll Tide and War Eagle!!




TK's 5th Birthday - Part 3, Family Party at Chuck E. Cheese

Did you know that you get TWO parties when you turn five? I did! ;-)

My 2nd party was for my family at my favorite restaurant, CEC!! I'll show you pictures from games first and then do another posting for cake and presents. Very exciting that it takes two postings!

This is the game that let's you put your picture on "credit" cards -




Getting excited about game tickets!




Having so much fun with Grandmother and Mom-o!




Daddy and Luke just HAD to drive the race cars -




And then Luke drove by himself -




Who wants to ride with me in the train?




I think Luke rode the horse... More than a few times!




And I played Frogey! See my "Birthday Star" sticker on my dress? How appropriate is that? ;-)




Wait til you see the presents...

TK's Birthday - Part 2, The Tea Party

I'm 5 years old!! Yay!! Here are pics from my "tea-party" with my girlfriends! Look at the amazing cake and cupcakes that my Mommy made!




And how pretty she decorated the party room!




We always have to get "the" candle shot! :-)




Here we are making our party plans!




Those plans included quality girl time (of course!) -




This is my friend, Grace Anne. Isn't she glamorous?!!




And here are Faith and Peyton. Look at all of their accessories!




Mommy tried to get a group shot but we were too busy with the girl talk!




However will we top this for my 6th birthday party? This means I'm 5 1/12 now!!

TK's 5th Birthday - Part 1

Hey Friends and Family!! We're a little behind on blog postings so you're gonna get to see loads of stuff about my birthday today... Then Christmas stuff tomorrow! ;-). It's cool to have a birthday in Dec, double the fun!!

First up, my school party!! Here I am with Miss Cathy, my teacher!




The class sang to me!




We had birthday cookies!!




And then... When I got home from school... I had a new Princess Bike waiting for me!!




Daddy had to show me all the cool things on it!




Before I took it outside for a spin!




I got the hang of it in no time!




I don't feel 5 yet... But everyone says that I will soon!

Luke: You're right, Sissy. This is fun!




Merry Christmas everyone!!

From the photo archives (i.e. Sh-Sh's lost camera)

Family and Friends - Can you believe how little we used to be?







We just thought Sh-Sh took lots of pictures with her iPhone. We're scared now that she found her camera!!
