DAVIS, Judge.

*633 Philip Blizzard ("Philip") and Patricia Blizzard (collectively " Defendants") appeal from the trial court's judgment awarding Montessori Children's House of Durham ("MCHD") $12,914.57 plus attorneys' fees and costs on MCHD's breach of contract claim against them.

After careful review, we affirm.
