Goings on

Happy happy times!

OK- I feel like I can brag on my blog~ we do craft time every day-- I was helping Emmy with hers and gave Ellie her balloon and sheet of stickers and told her to get started-- Emmy was not even halfway through and Elles says- "mom, look~ I'm done!" this was what her result was-- she is AMAZING!!!! no help- 2 yrs old~ and the perfect face.

cuddling in the morning- one of my favorite things ;) Poor Elles always tries to join us- but just can't wake up

Emmy LOVES circus peanuts and picks them as a treat in honor of Emmy Papa-- they were his favorite.

I think it's time for a haircut ;)


She tried to sneak one more peanut in bed-- this was the morning result- ha! she thought it was hilarious.-- underneath~ We went up to Atlanta to Rebecca Winters' wedding reception-- it was one of the best nights we've had in a while-- the kids had a sitter- and Jason and I got to enjoy fun friends and adult conversation and atmosphere- It was fabulous to be everyone and retouch base with my favorite Annie Girl

Family evening walks and lots of fun



We have REALLY lucked out this summer-- there have been a few hot days-- but mostly-- it's been perfect.

I got to skype happy birthday with my Grandma-- it was fabulous and lasted 5 minutes...then I looked down...it's so hard to get those darn marshmellows.

Ems dressed herself-- the leg warmers on her arms were mosquito protection- I love her.


callan has entered the fun "destroyer/i think I'm playing with you" phase-- it proves to be a little annoying to the girls as they create.





this was a pic taken before 7 in the morning--- he had already destroyed an entire room
*beneath- nature walks-- the best of times.

Wild man!!!

This one is also a climber...

climber boy

He always puts a "boy slant" on playing with the girls' toys.





my little helper.

LOVES playing with his sisters-- and if it can be a wild game-- he is over the moon!
*toes are involved in pretty much every meal.

I love summer

This is what summers look like at our house ;)


tree climbing in our princess wear

popsicle eating

and even more pool time

sometimes my lap is more fun than the pool.

fun times in the Chattahoochee river! nightly swim ;)

I love this little spot.
