O's summer vacation

Our trip to the beach was cancelled last minute so mom took o for a "staycation" in Winnsboro. Mom stressed over finding a place to take o this year but o considers going to their house a trip of a lifetime so this worked out well. And Mrs. Sherry was gonna have David Scott and Rachel was bringing Anders down so they planned a fun filled Friday. The polar vortex hit so swimming wasn't an option so they did lots of crafts and made pizza and had fun playing. This friendship is now spanning 3 generations and I'm so glad it's continuing!

































It wasn't the beach but come the first week of December o won't care that we didn't go this year! ;)

Princess Peach

This was so fun and I'm so glad o did it. This has been going on for 60 something years. It's like a right of passage in Ruston for little girls. She rode in the parade a few weekends ago then the ice cream social/rehearsal was yesterday and the pageant was this morning. My fav quote, "mom I got a trophy! My first trophy!" And she came home and displayed it on her nightstand. She had a blast throughout all of the events and was especially happy a few of her friends did it with her. These girls are precious; their hearts are huge!

July 4 weekend

I was so glad to have a long weekend! This pic just makes me laugh. She was laughing the whole time I let her skinny dip.


Most of our friends came over on the 4th for swimming, burgers and sparklers.











On the 5th we celebrated Jamie's birthday! We dined at 2 Johns and then hit up Margaritaville. It was a fun night!!

Dance recital 2014 - Aladdin

O had another awesome year of dance. I'm so glad she loves it. Matt woke up sick the morning of so we gave o her flowers before she and I left. I couldn't handle EVERYTHING by myself so the flowers were the compromise. :)
