Spending time with friends and family

We had a picnic and with family and friends a few weeks back. I am just now getting time to post the pics. We went out to the lake and had our lunch with Heather, Sydney, Joy, Eli and Aiden. After lunch and watching the geese, we headed in for Megan to give Eli an art lesson. Hope you enjoy the pics from our fun day together!

Our precious little Sydney smiling as usual.


Eli showing off his masterpiece.

Aiden just loved Sydney, he wanted a picture taken with her.


Two loving brothers!

Taking the Plunge!!!




Megan decided to take the plunge and get her hair cut. I think it looks great. I wanted to post a picture to show her "new" style.

Six Flags Trip

Ricky and I took the kiddos to Six Flags last week. We had a great time but it was very hot. We rode many rollercoasters like Goliath, Superman and Georgia Schorcher to name a few. When we got to the hotel to clean up for supper, Megan realized she had left her clips to hold her hair up while she was flat ironing it. Now what's a girl to do???? Well if you have a dad like Ricky, no need to worry, he came to her rescue. Ricky is truly a trooper when it comes to helping out the girls in their time of need.

Karate Graduation

Megan graduated up to Advanced green belt in karate and green belt in Jujitsu. I graduated to orange/yellow belt in karate. Here are a few pics for you to enjoy from graduation night.


This was the highlight of the night. Megan grappling one of the upper rank boys. I must say I was very proud of my little karate girl!


As you can see from the pics, she got him pretty quick...

It didn't take her long before she had "tapped" him out.




Time to tap out!




Fun with the family!!

Wanted to post a few pics from our recent trip from the grandbabies. Katie & Austin came up and stayed with us for 8 days. We enjoyed it so much. I am posting a few of our wonderful memories for you to see. The only sad part was saying goodbye at the end of their stay.




Splash pad fun, even Sydney joined in...not sure she enjoyed it as much as the rest of us. Who do you think is holding her???


Katie enjoyed it after the first few minutes. She was a little unsure to begin with...


Austin really enjoyed it, but he wanted to be right in the middle so of course MeMe went out there with him.

Riding on papa Ricky's shoulders on one of the many walks to the pond.

Catching fireflies for the first time with Katie.

Oh the excitement of catching those fireflies!!
Hope you enjoyed looking at these memories as much as we enjoyed making them. We enjoyed the grandbabies so much while they were here. The only sad part was watching them leave.
