Happy Mommy Day!

Do I have great kids or what?!? There's nothing like being a Mommy! I always knew my Mother loved me more than life itself, but I sure never KNEW it... really, really got it, until I had these two little monkeys! I am blessed!!

I love both of the pictures they drew... but I especially love the roots on the flowers! They were studying plants in school that week! Too cute! And Makinley worked so hard to write her note just perfectly. Good job girls!!

Mrs. Cupit's Assistants

Last summer, the girls and I went and helped Aunt Audra (I mean Mrs. Cupit) get her classroom ready for school. As a reward for all of their hard work of rearranging desks (mainly Mrs. Cupit's), writing on marker boards, moving boxes and fighting with Cabe and Asa, Aunt Audra (I mean Mrs. Cupit) offered to have them come up one day before school was out to be her "Assistants" on a school day. Well..... we're not ones to forget an offer! So, as luck would have it, Mommy had an appointment in Waco one day so Aunt Audra (I mean Mrs. Cupit) got to babysit for a few hours. The girls LOVED it! They even got to have lunch with the 3rd grade teachers! They loved all of the teachers, but were especially impressed with Mrs. McCommans... "She's sooooooo fashionable!"

(I think it was the pink/burgundy hair!)

And yes... Makinley is wearing the exact same outfit as in the post below at Sydney's party. Let's just say she was a little obsessed with this look for a couple of weeks.

Lunch with the teachers

Thanks Aunt Audra! (I mean... oh well, you know!)

Sydney's Birthday Party

These pictures were too cute not to include! They're hammin it up before going to Sydney's birthday party. It was right after dance tryouts so they still have some makeup on and their hair was still dolled up. They thought they were big girls getting to go to a party all fancy! Can you tell?

Are You Ready for Some CATCH UP??

I'm going to do my best to try to catch you up on some of the "major events" of the last few months! I'm sorry I've been so bad!! I finally got all of my computer problems resolved earlier this year and then darned if I didn't start having camera issues! Lots of pictures taken, just problems getting them to the computer! I think we're good now though! So read through and catch up!!

CHEER!

Cheer Tryouts in April (I think!) They did GREAT! They're getting bigger! They aren't the "babies" anymore! They are officially Mini-Stars now! Bye-Bye Mini-Tots!

DANCE!

These pictures are from Dance Tryouts in May. Again, they did GREAT! I'm amazed at their ability to keep the routines straight and not get the cheer dance mixed up with the dance dance! This is their first year to be on both. Wish me luck!! Not only are we at Miss Tammy's three nights a week now, but at competitions, I'll be doing costume changes, hair changes, probably a little bit of makeup change, etc. for TWO of them! Yikes!! What was I thinking?!?!

Marti, Madison, Makinley, Macy and Lia

I've been so bad!!

I haven't updated since March! I feel terrible! There have been so many things that I've missed out on posting! All sorts of Kindergarten activities... field day, end of the year parties, graduation, etc. And then there's all of the fun summer stuff we've done so far... A trip to San Antonio, a family reunion... and Splash Station to name a few. I've been really busy with work and the girls and all of their extra-curricular activities! I know... excuses, excuses! I'm going to try to be better! I'll have some pictures uploaded soon and will try really hard to be better! Thanks for checking in! Check back soon!
