Blogging hasn't been high on my agenda lately. Seems like we're busy non-stop and so it gets pushed aside. But I love keeping track of our days and months and years. I love looking back on our special times and our adventures. These are the things that make this life. So, here's a hodge podge of the last three months. Bits and pieces of our story. Enjoy!
Bren's million dollar smile! (no braces!)
A little mid-week trip to Granny & PawPaw's. Even near dusk in August, the pool is very warm!
Cait still loves Tin Tin. I snapped this one night. She asked to stay up and read. We found her a little bit later sound asleep with her book.
Matching pajamas thanks to Aunt Hilerey. The girls love them!
Lily decided she loves riding her bike and we all went for a family bike ride (except Bren...whom we missed!)
Cait's first "turban" "like mommy wears". She was feeling pretty grown up!
What can I say? My treasures!
Lily & Cait wearing daddy's (?) old cowboy hat.
School days are here. Above, crafts. Cam made a walkie-talkie out of pipe cleaners and the girls tried to make window clings. Below, history. Cam's history,
Veritas Press, is so much fun that Cait often sits to watch it!
Sleeping beauty & Bunny-Bunny.
At the end of August, we met with some friends at the zoo.
We even got to watch the elephant show. I'm glad we did because this cute little elephant got sick and died shortly after we saw him. Very sad.
One morning Lily was sitting at the counter. I asked her what she was drawing. She said the first one is Jesus on a cross and the second one is an empty tomb!
Another get together with friends. This time we filled our small house with over 20 people although it overflowed outside for a good portion of the time together. We enjoyed s'mores in August and an impromptu worship service. Great times with great friends!
"Hello, my name is chocolate bar" says this beauty!
A non-hurried Saturday morning is unusual and must be documented!
Labor Day weekend we escaped to Lawton. Cait finally got to ride the go-cart and we enjoyed several swimming sessions. Daddy's been working out and mommy got him to show off his guns :)
I got to go to the Women's Fun Shoot this year with Carrington & her mama. We had a great time!
My dear friend made me this oh-so-delicious cheesecake for my birthday. Thank you for spoiling me!
I walked in on Cait & Lily giving Cait's pony a bath. I laughed, took a picture, and told them no more water or soap. JC walked in a bit later and the bathroom was flooded into the bedroom carpet! Oops!
The fellas went camping and the moms and girls headed out for breakfast at the Tea Room. We are very blessed that God has brought so many friends into our lives this year.
On
Fluffernutter Day, we headed to the zoo with more friends. And of course, our fluffernutter sandwiches!
There are a couple more events that took place in between all these adventures but they deserve their own posts!
