Being hooded (or knighted as I call it) by Drs. Redmon and Gentry.


We snuck away during the ceremony and took a few pictures in the stairwell.

A Raisin Snack





Could eating raisins get any cuter?

Hold me during the scary parts...

When the movie gets a little scary (ie. the space scene in Toy Story 2 or monkey part in Toy Story 3), Josie likes to be hide her eyes and hold tight to the one she loves.

Swimming Lessons

We had swimming lessons over the past two weeks. I am so impressed with how much each girl improved in just 2 weeks of lessons. We loved them, but they did make our evenings a little late. I think we'll try to do the morning lessons the next go around.


Look Mom, I can go under. By the end of the week, she loved to show me this little 'trick'. I was impressed too given she didn't even want to put her chin in the water on the first day.


Josie using the kickboard and loving it.


At the end of the lesson, Josie got to go down the slide. She didn't really love it, but she really didn't hate it. She actually went twice. I was proud.


Aw the sweet moments of swimming lessons. Snacks for all.


Another sweet moment of swimming lessons - getting to take the class with your cousin and best friend.


Evelyn swimming to get that duck...scoops, scoops.


Can you tell Evelyn's favorite part of class? Jumping off the side of the pool to me was her daily highlight.


At the end of the last day, Evelyn got to go down the slide too and WOW, it was love at first slide. I think she actually went twice as well even though their class was really only supposed to go once.


Big smiles for Daddy (from both of us)!

Dresses for Three

My friend Lisa inspired me to sew these dresses for my little angels. We got the pattern from Made by Rae. I love all three girls matching. And I love the fact that they like to match. I'm sure someday soon they'll refuse to wear matching outfits. Until then though, if I can make it happen...it will.

Meeting Baby Kaitlyn

After 6 long months, we finally got to meet our sweet cousin Kaitlyn. Aren't these two cute together? I can see them growing up to be close cousin friends.

Fishing with Grandpapa

The girls got to go fishing with their Grandpapa this past weekend. With the drought, they are trying to clean out the tanks. They had a lot of fun especially after they found their boots in the car. Before the boots, I think there was a lot of whining from these city gals about the grass and stickers. I love these pictures...what a memory!
