Happy Birthday Daddy!

For Kraig's birthday, Lauren, Miss "creative" Melissa and I went to Different Strokes in Fayetteville to paint daddy something for his b-day! I wanted to do this so he could look back on it some day and remember how little Lauren was at that time in his life. I'm SO glad I called Melissa! I could not have done it without her...and I really mean that! Little miss Lauren would not have sat still for me to finish the project...so Lauren and I did a little...and Miss Melissa did a lot! :-) Thanks again Melissa for sharing in this wonderful experience! Happy Birthday babe from your loving wife and precious daughter. :-)
Lauren and I excited about our project!

Lauren loves the camera!
