Little Princess

Ann Marie was in the "Tiny Tots" division at the Tri-County Fair pageant and got second runner up out of fifteen 2 and 3 year olds! She did so good and I was very proud of her...especially considering she was the youngest one in her group!

What a sweet face!

Walking out on stage for the first time!

Proudly showing off her trophy, crown, banner, and flowers! Way to go Ann Marie!

OK...Just a FEW more!

Cameron was zoom zoomin' on the go cart track!

Randy helps buckle Ann Marie in the swings, She rode them 4 times! She rode everything almost...the child has NO FEAR! The boys would NEVER do these things at this age!

Hey cutie pie! You gettin' ready to slide?

Here I go Momma!

Ann Marie loves to pour water out of her watering can, and then get her daddy to fill it right back up!

Our BEACH Vacation!

We spent EIGHT nights in Orange Beach, AL recently on our summer vacation! We had a great time and the kids were SOOO good! They enjoyed lots of digging in the sand, swimming in the pool, walking along the shore finding shells and catching jellyfish, and just playing with their cousins, who were also there! We ate some great seafood, went to the waterpark, and even took the kids on a dolphin sightseeing cruise. Of course, we were anxious to see Helena after being gone for so long! Vacations are great, but you still ALWAYS love coming home!

Here are some pics from our trip!

Randy & Ann Marie in the ocean. I love this pic of the two of them holding hands!

Ann Marie's 2nd Birthday!

Ann Marie celebrated her 2nd birthday on July 18th. We had a party here at the house and kids were running everywhere! It was mostly her little "girlfriends" and family. She got lots of goodies and had so much fun! It was just yesterday that she turned one...wasn't it? Where does the time go? Here are some pics from her party!

"Dare me to dig in this cake?"

Fingers full of ICING!

YUMMY! Good cake huh Ann Marie!

Ann Marie and I opening one of her many presents. She would start it and make me finish it!

Sweet Ann Marie!

She is in her wagon and ready for somebody to pull her around! She kept saying, "Come on Momma, come on". She qwas being such a sweet angel! Can you believe she will be turning "2" on the 18th of this month? I can't. She is so loved by her 2 big brothers and it is just precious to watch them with her. What a special blessing from above this little angel is to us!

My latest artwork!

I painted this for one of my friends who recently had a baby girl. I thought it turned out really good considering I'm a beginner! It was fun to do!

Summer Livin!

Well, Lesley has convinced me to start a blog, and it really is easy! Here's a little of what we've been up to so far this summer.

The boys have been playing t-ball and baseball and just finished this past week. We enjoyed it very much but are glad it's over! It's very busy and hectic when you have 2 playing, and even they were getting burned out. Tucker made All-Stars and we played in a district tournament this weekend in Forrest City. They won one game and lost two, so we won't be advancing to state tournaments. They are now looking forward to lots of swimming and takin' it easy for the rest of the summer!

Ann Marie does a good job at keeping up with her 2 brothers! She is little miss SASSY PANTS and is so funny! She has such a good personality and never stops talking. I absolutely love this age! She has worn a cast for the past 3 weeks because she fell off the slide and cracked her elbow. She gets it off in the morning THANK GOD! That thing is funky and her arm will be getting a good scrubbing as soon as we get home!

Randy is busy working. They are cutting wheat, and pretty soon will start watering cotton. Besides working all the time and coaching Tucker's baseball team, that's about all he's been up to. I am loving being back at work 2 1/2 days a week at the Pillow Clinic. On my off days I enjoy working in my yard or going to the pool.

So, that's it for now! That's what we have been up to. I will post again soon.
