My little girl's 1st day of Kindergarten!!

Sis is getting so big, J and I were just looking through her baby scrapbook last night thinking how we've been so excited for this day!! She couldn't get to sleep last night because she was so excited for today!! This morning I didn't have to wake her up, which is unusual for her, she was up and dressed and asking to go to school. She kept watching the clock waiting for the right time to go outside and wait for the bus!!! Here are some pics from yesterday when she got to go to an open house, meet her teacher, and see her classroom and also from today. We took pics getting ready, waiting for the bus, and then once she got on the bus we drove out to the school so we could take some more when she got off the bus at school, yes we're crazy like that!! We'll take some more when she gets off the bus after her first day of Kindergarten!!!

A tribute to the Sis'

Jocey and Riley are only about 6 months apart, they are both girls with attitude, and they both already act like they're 16 years old. You would think that they would clash and not get along with each other but they are the best of friends, in fact they call each other Sis because they are more like sisters than cousins. They play so well together, have so much fun, have the same interests and are both so silly!!! We can't wait to see you again Riley beans, love you lots!!!

Lookin good

JJ came out the other morning with all kinds of fashion no-no's-flower shirt with plaid shorts and socks with his crocks, this kid must get his "unique" sense of fashion from his older brother!! (see past posts of JD and his crazy get-ups!!!

Beautiful girl

Here is Sis getting ready for church, she is really starting to love clothes and some jewelry, she usually changes her outfit 2-3 times on Sundays before church!! We love her very much and are very proud of what a good girl and big helper she is at home!!

The hot Jealous Girls!!

We got the pool out on a nice summer day and lots of the neighborhood kids came to play, which is one more reason we love living here!! Anyways, Sis and her friends all got their goggles/sunglasses and said they were in the "Hot Jealous Girls Club" (not sure where that came from) they would jump in the pool for a minute and then go over to the driveway and layout on their towels and say things like, "Hey hot jealous girls you want to get back in the pool now." It was cute and scary all at the same time, they are so little and yet so big!!!

It's all about family

On Memorial day we had our wonderful neighbor take some family pics of us. The last ones we have are almost 2 years old!! It's funny that the last ones we took were at the gardens, so the background was green and the whole family was in blue. These ones were in a neighbor's yard (they had all kinds of beautiful trees, flowers, bushes, etc) and we are all wearing blue or white. And the one we chose to print of we are sitting in exactly the same position as two years ago. You can see I'm not one who lives on the dangerous side, I don't adapt to change all that well!! The kids did great and these are a few of my favorite shots from the day!

It's that time of year!!

We're so excited the weather is finally getting nice!! You know what that means, Popsicles, BBQ's, camping, pools, splash park, mosquitoes, not wanting to go to bed because, "it's still light out" oops, I was supposed to be concentrating on the fun things!! We love summer time and can't wait to soak up some much-needed rays this summer!!
