WISHING IT WAS SUMMER....MEMORIES FROM 2008.


So as the new year comes in January..... also comes the dread of knowing that we still have alot of winter to go. All the stores are starting to put out their spring lines and I wander around thinking, summer will not come soon enough!


So to get rid of the winter blues I thought I would share a little of last years summer fun with everyone!!

One of our favorite pastimes (especially Dad's when Mom is at work!) is to visit the duckpond. The girls have shared many stale loaves of bread with the noisY, but oh so cute, ducks.

This particular picture has Hali and my sisters two kids in it. Steph and Trav had gone to a Dallas Cowboys game and I babysat for the weekend. Can I say "CHAOS"! I was "Mom" for the weekend to FIVE kids all under the age of 9... and the last two are only six weeks apart!! This was definately good birth control!! OK.... so they actually were suprisingly good. They all got along well it is just a lot more work getting 4 girls and a boy ready versus two girls!!!

SO HER IS A BLAST FROM THE PAST OF SUMMER 2008!

OUR FAVORITE THINGS THAT WE DID IN THE SUMMER OF 2008:


NUMBER 1 WAS GOING TO THE POOL WITH OUR COUSINS!


NUMBER 2 EATING ICE CREAM! (BY THE POOL OF COURSE!!!)

NUMBER 3 SELLING LEMONADE WITH OUR SISTER!


NUMBER 4 GOING CAMPING WITH OUR FAMILY!



NUMBER 5 HAVING PICNICS AT THE PARK WITH KYLEE!


NUMBER 6 GOING TO THE ZOO!


AND ......HALI's FAVORITE THING OF THE SUMMER WAS SEEING SPONGE BOB IN LAS VEGAS!
I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL SPRING!!!!
