Celebrating at Camp


This summer the children and mommy have been having fun at camp. Our church has a wonderful program and fun has been had by all!! Well as I was preparing for lil sis' birthday she saw the cake box and started walking around asking for "happy cake"...smart of her to put things together because I had explained to her I was getting ready for her birthday and brother has been helping her sing the happy birthday song. Anyway, I took some batter and made mini "happy cakes" for her friends at camp this week. She was so proud!!!


Yes, read her lips..she's
T.W.O.


She enjoyed her "happy cakes!"

Last Swim Meet!!!


Today was the last swim meet of the 2011 season!

I think I get as excited for the last as I do the first.

It is a wonderful experience for the children but just plain hot!!!

I was an awesome season....Division Champs again!!!



Lil sis cooled off before hand while showing Granny her new trick...yes she jumps by herself and is very pleased to go way under!!!
Picnics are fun too!

Lil sis also mastered the skill of blowing bubbles in her drink this summer...fun stuff!

Between the heat, visiting with grandparents, juggling the children and giving out ribbons I did not get many pictures this week.

So thankful for another fun and safe swim team season!!!

Chevy Baseball Camp

The local Chevy dealers teamed up with the Mudcats to offer a youth baseball camp.



Brother was very excited to participate and work with the players.



Daddy stuck around to capture some of the fun!





















He had such a good time and soaks up every single thing he hears!



For me the best part was a few days later he was showing me the silly band style bracelet he got there (in the shape of the Chevy symbol) and told me he liked Ford ...not remembering the sponsors name might be an area for us to work on!!!!!!!!

Time with Daddy!!

Swim team, camps, no school plus mommy working part time for the first time in a very long time equals time with daddy on the weekends!!!! He truly wouldn't have it any other way and it gives me some time to shop for the coming week all.by.myself!!!!

Today they went to the museum for the first time in quite awhile. He is so patient and lets them go along at their pace with no agenda. They saw these blocks early on and stay for an hour....mommy couldn't do that!!!







Big sis has always love blocks and building things. She was especially proud of this creation!





My children have been truly blessed with the most awesome daddy!!
