Saying Goodbye...to our wonderful neighbors

We got to give Mrs. Betty one more hug!!( With tears)She is precious! Betty and Mr. Dan would have done anything for us, they loved the girls and always had time for visits and hugs...the girls liked their candy dish!!!
The girls said goodbye to their pink room and our home one more time!

Lauren and Julie met me to give me one more hug or so we thought!!!

Our PRECIOUS neighbors who we totally loved just moved here as we were moving away. We wish we had longer together but we so enjoyed the time we had!
And sweet Kylee, the girls just adore her and I think will always miss her!!!


Dinner with Uncle Tim and Kelli


or should I say Boomer and Allie!! The girls had a blast with their wonderful dogs who just got married as well! Wes and I loved seeing their new home and only wish we had more time with them. Thanks you guys for a wonderful dinner and great visit!

A Place to Stay


Chrys and Mike were kind enough to offer us a place to stay b/c Abbey and Wes are allergic to cats (my sister has a new kitty)! We were thankful to have a bed and turns out it was good timing b/c Chrys got put on bedrest. So we were able to help out a little while we were in town!
Chrys and I were not very good at taking pics all week but we got some good visit time in the morning! Friday, Michele and her cuties came over to help Chrys, so we got to give them hugs before heading out of town to see the in laws! Michele made us some YUMMY bread to take with us!! Thanks Michele!!!The girls had so much fun with Oliver all week. Every morning his first words were ABBEY.... MIA!!!

The Butterfly

We went to Dallas and our first stop was hanging out with the cousins! We were thankful for the sunshine!!!

Nothing like jumping in the pool for the 50th time!!!!!!!!!!!
The Wash-N-Machine....Steph and I had to demonstrate this to the girls first ... of course!!! Do you guys remember this??? These are Mia's feet as she is flipping over Kennah!!They were so proud they finally figured it out!
By far my favorite memory was Aunt Steph pulling out the old swim team championship....the Butterfly...wish I had a pic for ya!

Must be Hereditary

Today it is rainy so I decided to bring some happiness to the cloudy room by baking some brownies! About 15 minutes into cooking them in the oven, Abbey begins sniffing!! What is that smell mommy? What smell? I smell chocolate!!!!! I love that my girls have got a thing for chocolate!!!!

Mia did the same thing around Abbey's age. One night while tucking her in to bed, I kissed her she was like I smell ..chocolate and ...peanut butter. There is just absolutely no fooling or sneaking around these noses!!

Drip Drops...

Sunday at church we were taking the Lord's Supper. Abbey asked why I was drinking it again and I shared. She asked why I was not happy because Jesus died on the cross for my sins? I said I was and asked what made her think I was not happy... she replied with " sometimes their are drip drops" (while she ran her finger down my cheek)!!!
