ice cream, fishing, and sister love...

this is what happens when it's another rainy day for who knows how many days in a row... time for some ice cream and games.

someone was really enjoying her first chocolate ice cream cone.

this is a rare moment around here these days... more fighting then hugs and kisses. but so so sweet when it does happen.

my new hat...

i love my new hat!!! thank you yeeyee.

my girls...

they are growing up so fast. olivia will be going to kindergarten in september, where did the five years go? there are days i missed those baby moments with them and today is one of them. my girls... my babies.

the flowergirl that did not walk...

olivia was asked to be a flowergirl for a friend's wedding and here are the pictures that says it all.  she felt terrible about it after and i didn't have to say anything.  

beautiful girls...

lots of fun things happening, just need to find time to post.  in the meantime, here are two beautiful girls from church who wanted to sit for a photo.

"D" Day

"D" for Derek... 

Favorite picture of the Day...  friends (and cousins) for life.

that face...

i was looking at some old photos and i found this face looking back at me... i love this little face!!!  why do you have to grow up...

Back to the Park

I took the girls out to the park by myself for the first time ever... a little hectic but lots of fun.

I tried to take pictures with one hand while holding Jocelyn back with the other hand so she wouldn't get too close to the railing... kind of hard to do.  

the "warm" day

not the most sunny day but definitely the warmest we've had in a long time.  ran out to the park after jocey's nap to run around and enjoy the heat.

so silly and so serious...
warm enough to take off the shoes for a few minutes to enjoy the swing... but her (olivia) toes were definitely cold after.  

favorite picture of the day...

Jocelyn dancing to the beat in her head...
