Gone Fishing!

Cute little kiddos!

Being the super duper nice grandma that she is grandma Dixie took the kids shopping for fourth of July clothes. Every year Stacey and I have gotten the kids 4th pics done. I thought I would try out my pretend photographer skills and do them myself...yikes! So Hay was the biggest brat but Olivia and Chace did awesome so here are the end results.

Getting Grubby!

My Crew :)

I am so lucky to have such good buddies! Here is pics of me and Stacey hanging out with my friend Romney and his boys Mafi and Sini. They will come play music for us, they sing like angels! And watch out my Romney can dance!

What the HECK!!!!

So I will never understand people, I at one time thought I was quite a good judge of character but over and over again I am showed that people really stink! So today I go out to my car to drive to Harmony's house to watch Sophie and I realize there are pieces of my car taken apart and the doors are all closed but not shut and the glove box is open...The stinkers took all my important papers, money, and cds. Then come to find out they actually stole my grandma's car! It makes me crazy that someone took it upon themselves to go through my personal things and take them and at my own home! Like I said people stink!

My photography mad skills!

My neighbors Holly and Matt adopted a sweet little baby boy, they named him Trevor and he is such a doll I can not even stand it! Well I told her we could take some picks of Trevor so she did not have to go take him somewhere since he is only four days old. He was not liking it at all but I managed to get a few pictures that Holly liked so I was really happy!

Snake Charmer

After Olivia's party we came home and enjoyed the cool house until...dun dun dun...Hay and Chace came running in saying they had found a snake, so being the coolest parents ever Stacey and I caught it for the kids. It took them a while to warm up to him but when Haylee finally did she loved the poor little guy to death! Stace came up with the name Checkers and Haylee liked that so Checkers it was. Our neighbor is deathly afraid of snakes so we packed up Checkers and the kids and took him across the street to the parkway and decided to set him free. Haylee did the honors putting him in a soft place where he could be comfy. As we were letting him go a guy biked by and said "You got your daughter to hold him? I cant even get my son to hold one" We laughed...Thats our Haylee :)

Olivia turns one

Olivia Turns One!!!

Olivia turning one was amazing! We had a Birthday BBQ and invited the friends and family. It started out kinda hecktick the park we orginally planned on having the party at was all filled up with other parties so we had to have a last minute change of parks, but we found one right down the park way. It was hot as hell I felt like I was melting! But it was so much fun :) Olivia had a blast and loved all of the attention! The second Olivia turned one she knew she was a big girl and started doing like five knew things and finally said MOMMY! So I was excited to be able to say to everyone at the party that she said mom, esp after the little stinkers first word was dada...how fair is that? My favorite part of her party was watching her dig into her cake...lol...then feed it to Stacey and Haylee. It was a really great day!

Hay's Preschool Graduation

My baby girl graduated tonight! I have so many mixed emotions part of me was so happy that she is independent, beautiful, and bright; and the other part of me just kept feeling like my baby was growing up too fast and I would blink and I will be sitting at her high school graduation. I was so proud of her!

We were very excited that so many of the family came to support her! grandpa Wade, grandma Georgia, grandpa George, grandma Dixie, Melody, Harmony, Sophie, Mikey, Stacey, Chace, mommy, and Daddy.

Some of the highlights of the night were...

1. Watching Hay recieve her diploma.

2. Her telling the audience she wanted to be a princess when she grows up.

3. Hearing that the boys in her class wanted to be cops, fire fighters, dentists, and doctors and Haylee loves the little boy who is gonna grow up and be a hedge hog...lol!

4. Mason bringing Haylee flowers.

5. Watching her cry during the slide show of the fun times (she is emotional like her mom)

6. Justin picking on my sisters.

7. Harms expression when Justin was holding Sophie :)

8. Watching Hay sign and sing "I can sing a rainbow" her favorite song she learned at preschool.

So all in one weekend my Hay graduates and my lil Ollie turns one...I know I should be thrilled but they are growing up too fast!

Sophie

As most of you know my sister Harmony and her husband Paul had a sweet little girl this year. I have had the opportunity to get to watch her for my sister, it has been a blast! She has such a sweet little voice and is our little singer. Today however she has turned into our little yeller :) see Olivia is the yeller in the family (I think she likes to hear her own voice, plus with Hay around you have to yell to get heard) anyways Sophapotamus has been learning from Olivia and Haylee and copies what they do...lol...I guess its payback for teaching Haylee how to spit and pick her nose!

Neener neener Aunt Hanny :p

Anything guys can do girls can do better!

BBQ TIME!!!

Us girls decided that bbq sounded sooooo good so we borrowed a charcoal grill from the neighbor and grilled up some food. We all laughed because usually we would have had the stinky men do it but we def did a better job then the men! It was pretty tasty and we looked mighty good looking while doing it :)

Family Picture 2007

So everyone keeps asking were the pictures of me are???? Well if you know anything about me at all you know I hate pictures of myself! I can always find something wrong or I think I should have worn my hair different, I will pick the pic apart ha ha ha. So here is our family picture we had taken for our Christmas card last Christmas...I need to go have a updated one taken since I chopped off my hair dyed it and lost 30 more pounds :) but I guess this will have to do until then.

At least the girlies look super cute!

Precious Baby
