Beauty Parlor


This week the little girls got invited to our local salon for "Princess Day." The girls got to dress-up and get their hair, make-up and nails done. They danced and got crowns and treats too.

Luncheon




We started a tradition years ago where all the girls get together to sit down and have a pot-luck lunch while the children play. It is a wonderful time to chat, swap recipes, cleaning tips, parenting advice, etc. This helps us stay sane, and is something nice to look forward to. I didn't get everyone in the picture but you get the idea.

Random Tibits

I bought Benton a BUMBO chair, and I LOVE it. He can now sit up to the table with the rest of us at dinner time. He was too small for his high chair and unable to support himself so we invested in the BUMBO. It is hillarious ...so cute.


Garrett got attacked by a dog at his farm. It touched some bare wires and got shocked so Garrett, being the tender hearted guy that he is, went over to see if the dog was alright. The dog was MAD and thought Garrett was the culprit. Thus, clamping down on his leg and NOT letting go. Poor Garrett. He had to get a tetanus shot later on.

The Men in my life...



My dad came for a quick 24 hour trip to visit us. I love that he makes time for short trips to just check in on his children. They mean a lot to us.






Garrett sat down to play UNO with Tori last night. She whooped him!! It is so sweet to see "Daddy" pay close attention to his daughters and give them one-on-one time with him.

Graduation!


My first baby graduated Pre-Kinder today. I can't believe how much they grow and learn in such a short time. Tori was awarded the "Class Leader" with her certificate of achievement. I am one proud mama.
