Summer Fun!!!

Not too long ago, Ricky asked me if I had any intentions of ever posting pictures to the blog anymore.  With Facebook now in the picture, I tend to always post stuff there and forget about the blog. I hope to do better with that.

So, school has started back for Austin and thankfully, he is enjoying 7th grade. He has started playing the tuba which he seems really excited about.  Classes started back for me last week and I was none too thrilled after just only 2 weeks off.  This semester will probably be my toughest one yet. Probably not the best time to start fall ball but we have. Tonight is Anson’s first soccer practice and tomorrow night is Aidan’s. I hope they have fun!!!

Anyway, here are some summer fun pics I snapped with my iPhone. Enjoy and soccer pics to come soon!

This silly girl is a mess!  She is into more stuff than her brothers some days!!!

First ponytail!!  It didn’t last long ~ she just really doesn’t like her hair messed with at all!!!

Silliness with the iPhone 4…. now we can do self-portraits much easier!!!

Summer in Alabama ~ fun, fun!!!

Splash pad in Trussville with the church toddler group!  The kiddos LOVED it!!!

Austin at the pool!

Aspen at the pool!

Anson at the pool!

Daddy and Aidan at the pool!  I think Aidan is certainly ready for swimming lessons!

What a fun-filled summer!  Soccer pics coming soon….

Anson’s 3rd birthday party

We had Anson’s birthday party at the beginning of May after I took finals.  It was so nice to enjoy the party!  We had it at Fox’s Pizza in Argo and the kiddos all had fun.  I had a girl I found on Facebook (friend of a friend) make his Toy Story cake … isn’t it too cute??

I cannot believe my little boy is 3 years old!!  Where did the time go??

End of the year stuff for Aidan & Anson

So, the boys finished out school for the school year (and mommy finished her spring semester – YAY!) so now it’s time to catch up on posting pictures.

Aidan & Anson had their end of the year parties.  They both did stuffed animals (Aidan made a moose & Anson made a monkey) and had ice cream parties.

Here are pictures of Aidan’s moose making and ice cream party.

Here are pictures of Anson having his ice cream party.

Aidan’s end of the year program.  We will miss Mrs. Jamie ~ she has been an excellent teacher for Aidan.  She has gotten Aidan to talk when no one else could!!

Toy Story 3

Think my kiddos are excited about Toy Story 3 coming out soon? Austin drew this in the driveway yesterday!

Not too bad on the artwork, eh?

Aspen’s rash ~ day 2

Well, it has gotten significantly better in a short amount of time.  Here are a few pictures I took yesterday afternoon of it.

She looks a LOT better this morning.  I think we are on the mend!
