OK, I'm extremely disgusted with myself. I guess I've been pretty busy as to not have enough time to blog about what's keeping us so busy!
I am going to flood you with pictures and hope that you don't get overwhelmed!
Here is Brian and me at the Blue Man Group in Tyler, TX. This was my Christmas gift, and it was AWESOME!! I highly recommend it--it was soooo much fun!
The girls and I went to see "The Lorax" in the theater. A real treat for all of us, because we rarely get to go to the theater!
Near the end of school, and I went to visit Haley (4th grade) for her awards ceremony.
Sadie my soccer player. This is her friend Reagan, they were both on the same team.
These next few pictures are of when we went to Branson, MO back in March. What a BLAST!! The girls loved it.
We went to lots of shows and even played a little minature golf. Oh,
and even though it was March, the girls found a large hot tub at our
timeshare, but it was in the low 80's that day--beautiful!
We took a ride on the train in Branson. Just a quick little trip, but quite an experience!! we loved looking out the windows as we rode.
This was the Hughes Family show--"IT". So fantastic!! And everyone in it was related.
Haley got pulled out of the audience and got to go on the stage for this show, "Buckets and Boards" it was lots of fun. She asked one of the 2 guys who do the show for a picture as well.
The blurry red thing in Lydia's hand is a drumstick. I was doing stuff in the kitchen, and turned around to find a drum solo going on. She actually was scary good.
A trip to our local zoo, just had to throw this one in because of the shear size of that fish. Yes, that's a local alligator fish or something or 'ruther. It's just BIG!
Caitlyn at swim lessons, I didn't realize this was a video when I stuck it on the blog. Hopefully it works for y'all.
Notice the picture of the sly raccoon behind her. I think she took this
picture by herself, but she reminds me of that raccoon--sly.
We got to participate in an Easter Egg Hunt at Brian's work. The girls had a blast! And there were sooo many eggs, it was unbelievable! Just check out their stash down a couple of pictures.
Caitlyn's little dance class.
My clever two girls. I came in to find these stools stacked like this. Caitlyn and Lydia were actually climbing in and out of Lydia's crib using these.
Sadie at school with her friend Reagan (again). They are so stinkin photogenic--I couldn't help but put this cute picture in.
It was Mother's Day and Meghan wanted to make brownies for me. She did a wonderful job!!
These next few pictures were just too cute to not put in, so bear with me.
The end of the year field day, and Sadie and LaTrelle were doing the 3-legged race, they did pretty well too!
At the girls piano recital, and of course Lydia finds the water.
Haley and Meghan both did UIL this year through school. Meghan did Social Studies and Chess, and I Haley did chess as well. They both received awards for this.
CHEESEBALL!!
Caitlyn and RJ's birthday. Both on the same day, so we celebrated together. RJ looks sad, but he's just being a goofball.
This was how we spent just about every day of summer break! Caitlyn actually learned to swim and go under water here, Sadie reinforced what she'd already learned, as well as Meghan and Haley, and Lydia, well Lydia was a maniac!! She loved every minute of being in the pool!!!
Meghan and Haley attended a 2-day tennis camp.
We went to the zoo on member appreciation day, and we got to feed the birds, Haley loved getting the birds onto her stick, and passing them to others--always the helpful girl.
OK, well this isn't anywhere near all of my pictures, but I need a break, and figured this was enough for now.
