Summer So Far!


My oh my, I have a lot of catching up to do! We have been super busy with summer fun around here. I have lots of pictures to share, and some of them even go back into May.

Disclaimer: These pictures are in random order. They will stay that way because ain't nobody got time for that.

A bunch of my family went to Emilee's wedding. Emilee is Megan's friend, but we all love her.
The kids and I made our annual trek to Greensboro to visit my cousin Krista. We made the kids pose for the annual "look how we've grown" picture.


We celebrated Father's Day and went to lots of Believer's Church softball games.


We've had some friends come swim with us.

We headed down to Pigeon Forge for the day where the kids had their first experience at Gatti's. (When did they drop the Mr.?)

We also had some fun riding go karts.

There was a picnic in the park on a different day.

We had a fun day at the Aquatic Center nearby.

A quick little trip to Chuck E. Cheese.

Our family girls got together as usual to watch Miss USA. We have a fierce competition as the show moves along where we try to guess who will be in the Top 10, the winner, etc. I am proud to say that I picked Miss Nevada as my first impression, and she won! So I won our little competition.

I have been to the dentist way more times than I care to remember in the last few months. Two root canals, two crowns, and a filling later, and I'm ALMOST fixed. It has not been fun. And definitely not cheap!

Parker got to celebrate his birthday with friends at the pool.

The student ministry at church had a lake get together that was a lot of fun.


Parker's birthday sleepover was exciting with all those boys.


Last Day of School pictures!

Smores!



More last day of school pictures (I told you the pictures were out of order)!

Colin graduated!


Claire did an awesome performance in her classroom that went with a book she read.

Parker & Claire both had straight As this year! Yay!



I'm sure I've missed some things, but this will do for now to get me caught up a little bit. Hope you're having a great summer!

Mother's Day 2014

 
We had a wonderful Mother's Day weekend. We enjoyed spending some time with Nana and Grandma. The kids made me several special gifts and cards. Brian and the kids also ordered a porch swing for me. I can't wait for it to get here! 

I am so thankful for my precious babies! I love being their mother!
