Happy Fourth!

Here are my patriotic girls wishing you a happy freedom day!
We celebrated by going to the Clinton Library (it's was free! the best way to go there!)
M wasn't so sure about posing behind the spaceman (LG wasn't either but her picture is on Aunt Sarah's camera...soon to come hopefully!)
We had a lovely lunch of catfish, okra and hush puppies and the girls liked it!
Then we swam and relaxed by the pool!
This pic of M is my favorite right now!

This is what W did all afternoon. He's working so hard to study for his test!!
making milk :)
We went to a fun BBQ at our friends' that evening where my two girls promptly fell to pieces and we concluded the evening in front of a movie. :)
We LOVED having Aunts Sarah and Becca here this weekend. They were good aunts and played Pretty Pretty Princess with M and swam and relaxed. It was a great weekend!

Anyone for a Bath?

We had W's sisters here for the weekend to visit! We decided to take them down to Hot Springs to tour the bath houses and enjoy the Arkansas scenery!
the girls were wonderful and had fun being out and about!
Along Bathhouse Row we took in the sights, toured the Fordyce Bathhouse, and enjoyed pretty downtown Hot Springs.

Police Academy Graduation!

I have been meaning to post these for almost a month but just got the pictures from Dad's camera on the computer.

Jake graduated from the police academy!!! Hooray!
20 weeks of grueling, hard work paid off.
He was even honored for the top Academics!
It was very cool to be there. He deserves this. He has worked so hard and it's fun to see how well this fits him. He just IS a cop!
my brother is in the second row from the front, fourth from the left (the bald one)
getting his badge from the chief
with his three cute boys!
He's working in the southern part of the city because they know he speaks Spanish, let's just say he'll be able to use those skills in that part of town :)

Congratulations! We are so proud of him!

Every little boy loves to wear a dress at sometime, I guess

Ah, to be engaged again!

Or not!!
My sister may get engaged soon. It will probably happen. It's weird but if it's right for her, then it will be wonderful.

It's funny telling her all about my wedding, the things I loved (my dress and cake and veil), the things I didn't (argh, don't make me think about bridal photos! Thank heavens for Christina!) and all that.

I'm so glad I'm not engaged anymore! But enjoy us when we were! :)
And J & T when they were as well...

Mother of the Day Award

My ten-month old daughter ate brownie batter and otter pops in one day.

I'm such a good mom. :)
