Time For A Break

    We have been so busy packing and getting ready for our move for a couple weeks now, it's nice to just take a break every now and then. This afternoon Connor rode his bike, Olivia rode her scooter, and Aaron fixed our sprinklers that they later played in. It was the perfect ending to our bust day!

My Baby's Home

    Connor has never been away from me for more than a few days, so when Aaron's mom asked if she could keep Connor for a week I panicked a little bit. He really wanted to stay with her and we were so busy getting things ready for the move, so I promised him that I would let him in a couple weeks when we were more prepared. On July 13 I took him to the airport where his Auntie Chissy met us. They flew to DFW and he stayed with his Mimi for 7 nights! Today he came back home to me and I was the happiest mama on the planet! I missed my boy so much!

Our First Circus

    When Carol asked me if we would like to take the kids to the circus, my immediate response was of course! I knew they would love it, plus none of us had ever been to one. I did worry that maybe it wouldn't be air conditioned, but then I immediately thought there was no way they would do it in a place that wasn't air conditioned. I was so wrong! We were so hot during the entire circus, we couldn't wait to jump in the pool as soon as it was over!

Fourth Of July

This nation will remain the land of the free only so long as it is the home of the brave.

Scootering

    While Aaron washed our cars, the kiddos got to enjoy a little sunshine and race down the street on their scooters.

 The perk of having your brother get a new scooter is getting to keep his old one!
