We had such fun celebrating Father's Day yesterday with the family. Here are a few pictures from our fun day:And today, we took part in a local movie theater's free movie day: Kung Fu Panda 2. A free movie and lunch at Rosie's Mexican Cantina with friends? A perfect start to ...
Our Saturday Adventure
A couple of weeks ago, I was able to score some indoor rock climbing tickets for super cheap. Kyndall always loves the rock walls at the beach, so I thought this would be right up her alley. Libby isn't into the adventure junkie stuff, so she decided to hang with my mom for the ...
Fun Friday
After one last day of VBS fun, and then a little pool time, I joined some friends at a jewelry party. The jewelry was Initial Outfitters. They have tons of gorgeous stuff. Like this amazing bangle bracelet: And these super cute charm necklaces:If you haven't heard of them ...
Blackberry Jelly…… Success!
We did it! With our 10 cups of blackberries picked yesterday, we made 4 whole jars of blackberry jelly! (We'll try not to eat it all in one morning!) It took us about 2 hours to make, and that includes picking the blackberries. Main lesson learned: We need LOTS more ...
Summer Manifesto
Tonight, we checked one thing off our "Summer Manifesto" and are well on our way to checking off another one. We rode all around the farm and picked blackberries. Kyndall loved it. Libby was too hot, and just wanted to ride the 4-wheeler!K with a hanful of blackberries that she ...
Marvelous Monday
These gorgeous flowers were picked from my mom's flowerbed and delivered to me via my sweet girls. Totally made my Monday.In other news, our VBS week started today. I'm teaching 4th grade with two awesome ladies and I couldn't be more excited!! We have a crazy, chaotic week ...
Weekend Wrap-Up
We spent our Saturday out on the lake with my parents, riding the jet ski, cruising in the boat, jumping off rocks and stuff. My girls are absolute river rats, but the lake version. Come to think of it, they love any form of water--ocean, lake, river, pool--it doesn't ...
Rodeo Street Dance
This is what we do for fun on the Thursday night before a big rodeo. The county blocks off the street and we have an old-fashioned ho-down. OK, it's not quite as redneck as that. They do block off the street and one of the local bands played while everyone danced. There were some country line ...
Camping Out
Last night we took the girls camping out behind the house. Remember that we live on about 400 acres of farm land, so when I say behind the house, take that loosely. Justin worked most of the afternoon finding the perfect spot, bringing rocks from the creek to circle the fire, cutting ...
Okaloosa Island… In pictures
To kick off our summer, we took a trip down to the beach with my mom and sister. We left the boys at home, so we were a little worried about how all our stuff (beach chairs, toys, nets, etc.) was going to make it down to the beach, but we managed. Okaloosa island is a small stretch of ...
The plate of my Summer is just too full.
The summer countdown is on!! There are only 4 and 1/2 days of school left--I could not be more ready for this break! (Insert loud screaming and crazy dancing here). That said, with the coming of summer, I always feel excited about my to-do list and I always make it too long. You know, ...
