Sweet Summertime

We have been making the most of our summer

and spending time with friends whenever we

have the chance. We've also been trying to beat

the heat like most of the country. In order

to be outside water almost always has to be involved.

Addi came over one afternoon to play and we

enjoyed her so much. She's such a sweetie

and her & Aleigha play much better than they

did when they were a little smaller.

It rained ONE day for a short time and miss priss

wanted her bathing suit on & her rain boots and boy

did she have a good time!

We went to eat  and out for ice cream one night with

friends and afterwards they came over to play. Nevaeh

and Aleigha played pretty well together for a 3 year age

difference and while they played us adults play

Yahtzee :)

Playing doctor with Daddy!

I hope everyone is having a good week so far.

Aleigha starts dance today so were pretty excited!

Someone Came to Visit

My cousin Victoria came to visit one day last week

and someone was super excited. Our house is about

half way from where she lives & where she is about

to start college so she came to stay the night. Aleigha

absolutely adores her!

One of the first things she wanted to do with

Victoria was play makeup.

It was so cute watching them play!

Getting all dolled up!



So sweet! Come back again soon Victoria!

Swim Like a Fish

Swimming lessons ended yesterday and I'm

kind of sad about it. I enjoyed taking Aleigha

everyday and she loved it too.

She did have a bad day yesterday, I'm not sure

what was going on but she cried and didn't really

want to participate but we made her stick to it.

Here she is with her certificate!

And they got a prize for finishing, everybody

loves popsicles!

Were so proud of her and what she accomplished

and we cant wait to do it again next year!

Painting

It's been so hot lately that some afternoons Aleigha

just doesn't want to go outside and play. So

yesterday I got out her paint and a canvas

and let her work her magic.

She loves painting!

And getting it all over the place :)

I seen this little 4th of July project on Pinterest

and thought it would be fun to do with Aleigha.

Ours didn't turn out as cute but I love it and

she had a blast doing it.

It is on display in the kitchen right now!



I hope everyone is having a great week. We have a

busy weekend ahead of us but I'm looking forward to it!

Father's Day

On Saturday we all went to the Farmer's Market

downtown and after that we went to my parents

to swim. Later that afternoon my Mom said yall

should of just planned to stay the night since your

coming right back tomorrow for Father's Day so

that's exactly what we did. They only live about 20

minutes from us but it's something so peaceful about

being there.

Henry & my Dad were going fishing

that afternoon so we gave them their Father's Day

presents a day early :) They fish alot so new

fishing poles were perfect and they loved them.

It was only fitting for Miss Priss to go get hers

as well.

My Mom made the Pioneer Woman's

white chicken enchiladas and they were

yummy! After eating lunch we spent rest of

the afternoon playing in the pool and relaxing.

Pop just hung out in the shade :) It was

such a great Father's Day weekend!



Swiming Lessons

We decided to put Aleigha in swimming lessons

this year and I am so glad we did. She loves to

swim but has never been to fond of going underwater

but now she is a little fish.

She will now go under water and swim. We are so

proud of her and she's only been doing lessons

a week.

She also has no problem jumping off the side of

the pool or better yet the diving board.

My baby is getting so big but we are

so very proud of her!
