Choosing our Battles

If she wants to wear a winter coat in 90 degree weather the go right ahead. Don't forget the matching hat!

When I was a Baby

Connor's homework assignment was to pick out one picture of her as a baby and bring it back to school to share. Did it surprise me that she wanted to take six? Not at all.

Soccer 2012

Connor starts soccer this fall and her Grandma and Grandpa jumped at the chance to buy her her first soccer ball and a new soccer outfit.


I'm not too sure what Oscar thinks. We usually buy soccer balls for him.

We Just LOVE Birthday Parties!

Especially when they are at the pool!  Kayla's birthday was at the pool this weekend and we were super exited to go.  What was even better was that there were three girls from Connor's and Kayla's class at school!  Connor hasn't been to school all summer so she loved "catching up" and playing with Madison, June and Maurecio. It looks as if she will enjoy going back to school next week.  We'll see!

Madison, June and Connor:

Cake might be the only reason we come to birthday parties...

Rylie, Kayla's sister, sitting with the big girls:

Yes, this is the birthday girl.  This is what she did pretty much the whole time we were there!  Laura called later to say that Kayla had 103 degree fever so this explains it.  Thankful Connor didn't get sick!

Happy Birthday, Kayla!

Food Truck Tuesdays

Every Tuesday Smyrna holds a community festival where about 10 food trucks and a local band come to Taylor/ Brawner park. The playground is huge, food is delicious and friends make it so special.

Just a normal Tuesday in Smyrna!

Summertime with My Cousins

This summer, Kerri, Mom and I were able to do a lot with the kids. Dad was also able to meet us on a couple of occasions as well which always makes everything more fun!

Because I am uploading from my IPad, it doesn't allow me to organize my photos (or maybe I just haven't learned yet) so they are probably going to be in random order... another reason I do not like the Blogger ap. Anyway, we were able to take the kids to Fernbank, the YMCA pool, the fountains at Centennial Park and also the Children's Museum. Enjoy the pictures, in random order, of course!
