Seriously......

Okay so I put TONS of work into putting all of these posts and photos in order and saved them all as drafts until I was done with them and ready to post. And now that I have published them they are still all out of order....WTF?????????? Soooooo frustrating.

My first quilt...this one is for you Adrea!

It is FINALLY done!! I made this "woobie" for Brookelynn. Not too bad for my first one...I just hope that I get better with every one that I do! Now to get started on Adyson's!

Other Memorial Day weekend pictures...

Our Memorial Day weekend was packed with tons of activities, but it was TONS of fun to hang out outside ALL day!! The girls absolutely loved it too!






Brookelynn taking time to relax for a minute!


Can't wait for the treat daddy is cooking!


Grubbin on the treats that daddy cooked over the fire.

Cheeeese...with a mouthful!

Good 'til the very last bite!



I was actually able to get some more flower seeds planted too! Can't wait for them to bloom! I planted some sweet pea seeds and 2 different kind of flower mixes. I am excited to see it. And in this picture you can see the hyasynth (sp?) that my mom and I planted from seeds (the tiny white flowers) has FINALLY bloomed!


The crazy rose bush that I cut waaaay back....and it still looks crazy!


I saved some of the roses for the center of our table!

Adyson and her shoe...

I was trying to get some lunch ready for the girls the other day and turned around and Ady was trying to put her shoe on by herself and I thought it was cute. Just thought I would share it with you.



The fire pit....

Ryan has been wanting to dig a pit since we have moved in. Memorial Day weekend seemed like a perfect time to get it done.






Can you believe that I actually got a DECENT picture?!? (no middle finger!!)














Making sure that the ground is level for the bricks. Who knew building a fire pit was so technical?













Sweeping the bricks to prepare them for the glue to hold the bricks together...he told me that he would kill me if I posted this photo....soo...if anything happens... JUST KIDDING!!!





The first level of bricks completed. A little out of order I guess...sorry!


























Ryan forgot to buy whatever thos doo-hickeys are called that you use to get the stuff out of the tubes so being a man's man he is trying to figure out how he is going to get it out without having to go back to the store...LOL! He ended up using a STICK!!!










Layer 2 complete!


























TA DA!! A finished fire pit!

















And we got to enjoy the fire pit before bed time too! It was great! Thanks babe! What a great idea!

Our photo shoot with Kenz...

We went with our friend Mackenzie and her new toy to a place called Thanksgiving Point to get some great pictures of the girls. And believe it or not these are just a FEW of my favorites!! Enjoy. Are there any fishies in there?



Never forget to stop and smell the flowers!!!


It was quite the challenge to get these two in the same photo!

This photo CRACKS me up!!!!




This photo is funny too, we asked Brookelynn to stand in front of this door for a picture and this little boy opened it and scared the crap out of her...we were all laughing soo hard! Brooke, not so much!




This photo is precious. Brookelynn is telling Adyson all about whatever it is that she has in her hand.



No day is ever complete without a meltdown.




So serious.


Cute!






Kisses for the baby!


Brooke was too busy to cooperate for a photo op?!?






I LOVE LOVE LOVE this one!!!!!!!








Thanks again Mackenzie!!! You captured some GREAT photos! Can't wait for the June shoot!!!! Love ya!
