Double Digits!!

10

She' 10- yep. How did that happen so fast? It seems like just yesterday we were trying to figure out what to name her, learning to tie shoes, losing the first tooth( which I wasn't there for by the way! Her dad was!)

For her birthday, we went to Outback Steakhouse- her favorite- where JoJo and Tyler joined us for dinner. Then on the following Saturday, she had a pool party at our pool. She had cake and pizza, plenty of friends and grass skirts! Now what else could a 10 year old girl want?

Oh yeah, she wants a horse too.

First day of school!

Well, I can't believe the first day day finally arrived. My babies are growing up to fast. Sydney started 5th grade- this is a big year for her. It is her last year in elementary school. Next year we will be in MIDDLE SCHOOL!

Reagan started first grade. She is just beginning the long journey of school and already thinks the day is too long! I hear ya sister!

Ever wonder how 6 year olds party?

The afternoon of Reagan's birthday, we had a party at the our community pool. She had all of her favorite people in attendence-including two young fellows who were not sure about a party of all girls!! we swam, ate pizza and cake, and opened presents. What more could a girl ask for?

Oh yeah....a horse!

Reagan is 6!

After having a special birthday breakfast at home,

we took Reagan for a hike up Sawnee Mtn.

she loves the outdoors and has

wanted to go hiking forever

it seems!!

We have a Secret!!!

I bet you can't wait to find out what our little secret is.....

welcome summer!

Ahhh... the days of no homework, staying up late, and sleeping in are finally here! The first week out of school was spent watching tv and swimming! We went to my parents' house in Mississippi for a week. The girls had a lot of fun. The pictures are from a visit to the lake complete with swimming a boat ride on the lake and a picnic. The weather was awesome! Oh, I almost forgot a highlight of the trip was seeing Mamaw's new puppies. Sydney posed them in this flower pot and it was such a cute picture!

When we got home, the girls went to VBS at a local church and this week Sydney is having tennis camp. She was very nervous when I dropped her off this morning. Poor thing, she didn't know a single person! I was wishing I had found a friend to sign up with her! But, I let her take my cell phone with her so she could call me if she needed to. She just called on her break- She said she was having a great time and really liked it! So funny she is using a cell phone.
