Cowboys & Cowgirls

I love summer with my kids. Sure, they can bicker as brother & sister sometimes, but overall I just love them being at home and when we get our family days together! Today, Drew was set on dressing as a cowboy, in his Wrangler jeans, even though we are in record breaking heat right now, with 100-110 degree temps. As soon as he put his giddup on, this Mama's heart melted.




Kenzie loved the idea and went to pick out her outfit, and we headed outside for some pics on the fence! Daddy set some modeling music for the mood. But we all decided it was HOT, and headed back inside after we got a few snapshots.

Whew! I'm FINALLY Back!

Wow... the past few months have just gotten completely away from me. SO MUCH to catch up on! The biggest change, and the biggest reason I have been away for so long is... we are having another baby! This pregnancy has thrown me for quite a loop, and I am just getting back to feeling somewhat like 'me' again. So, it's gonna take me a little while to catch back up, but I am determined and ready to get back on track.

Let's go back to right where I left off, in Feburary. (Wow, it really has been too long.) :(
We made a trip up to IL to visit with family and friend's after the holidays.

Bowling, dinner with friends, meeting Hannah, and 'Christmas' with family at Jupiter's 2. I believe the saying goes 'A good time was had by all' :)

Happy Valentine's Day

The kids have been really excited about Valentine's Day this year. So much so, that they were both up at 5:30 running thru the house to find us and give us a hug and valentine's they had drawn and colored for us. :) Drew had his school party yesterday, and Kenzie's today.






The teachers gifts are pencils I cut in half and made into 'coasters'. Topped with our homemade apple butter.






Mrs. Hicks asked me to bring in snacks for the kids today, so I made 'heart-healthy' snacks. Chocolate chip granola bites and cut apples. Kenzie said everyone loved them and one friend even told her I was the bestest cook ever! Score!!! - Healthy and Yummy and Pleasing to the kids!




Let's all be sure to share our love today and everyday! :)
