"B" Date

So, sometime last year, Vinnie and I decided that our dates had become entirely too predictable.  We'd go to Lotus for sushi and then possibly to a movie.  Not that we didn't enjoy it, because the company was wonderful (obviously), and who doesn't love a good plate of sushi?  But, we thought it would be interesting to date our way through the alphabet.  Our "A" date was a disaster thanks to Allie's pneumonia, Vinnie's flu, and my violent stomach bug.  The "B" date was much better though!  Vinnie planned this one and it went something like this...

Brixx Pizza for a little dinner...

 Then on to Belk to pick up Vinnie's suit jacket that was being altered (exciting I know, but with 3 small children, even date night is about the errands sometimes!)

Finally, a couple of games of Bowling at Textile Lanes in Belmont.

And after we got home, he surprised me with this wonderful relaxing Bath.  A perfect ending to an awesome night.  Thank you, Vinnie, for a wonderful date!  

Starting a Blog

Ok, I'm new at this blogging thing so bear with me.  We're the Cherrys.  I thought that blogging would be a neat way to keep up with our family that is growing up WAY too quickly if you ask me!  

There's me (Tammy) and my wonderful husband Vinnie.  We've been married for almost 8 years now and they've been, without a doubt, the best 8 years of my life!

 

Then you have my 3 beautiful children.  I always knew that I wanted to be a mother when I grew up.  What I didn't know is that it would be the most exhausting, frustrating, exciting, and rewarding job I would ever do.  I'm so thankful that God has blessed me with these kiddos to raise.

Our oldest is Trey.  He was born 6 days after our 2nd anniversary.  He's 5 and in kindergarten (that's right...big boy school.)  That was a big change for our family but he just LOVES it.

After many tries and much heartbreak, our family was blessed in July of 2007 with Isaac Lee (aka: O.Z., Ozie Wozie, or Mr. Destructo)  He is all boy, and a wild boy at that, but has a wonderfully sweet heart.  He's a handful and I wouldn't have him any other way!

Next in line is our little princess.  Miss Allie Wallie was quite the surprise in our family, coming along 2 days after Trey turned 4 and when Isaac was just 21 months.  She was the perfect addition though.  She may look like a little beauty queen (which she is, most of the time) but she is tough as nails, thanks to her brothers "loving" on her all the time.

Anyway, this is our family, and this is our blog.  My hope is that I'll be able to keep up with this and have a record for my children to look back and see.  Hope you enjoy it too!
