Fun things about the weekend...celebrating liberty

Our greatest joy is being together...can't think of a better way to celebrate life & liberty :) Our fun things looked a lil' like this...

Milestones (sigh)



A lil' Candyland (the new boards are quite fancy schmancy)

Photobucket

"what's a girl gotta do for some veggies around here" (aka, miss won't eat any fruits - if it ain't orange/green, she don't want it)

Photobucket

Puppy Love (usually against said Puppy's will)

Photobucket

"Following the Leader, the Leader, the Leader" (for now anyways-ha)

Photobucket

Coloring...lots of coloring (colored approx 27 pictures this weekend)

Photobucket

some time out on the porch, enjoying "out on the porch" (thanks Apes - still enjoyin' this when I can)

Photobucket

flower recovery (post vacation & sweltering heat trauma)

Photobucket

Deddy's loving arms (sigh)

Photobucket

more coloring - I told ya, it was a lot :)

early morning Playdough fun w. Deddy while the girls slept in

wearing my "I'm so proud - couldn't be happier these are my kids" face A LOT this weekend

Photobucket

hugs (sigh)

...and if you really want a glimpse into how we spend our time, here's some lil' peeks from the floor view vantage we're usually at. Watchin' these babies enjoy each other has become the butter to our bread :)





**disclaimer** no babies (esp. sweet ones named Ella) were injured in the making of these films...crying at end was strictly for entertainment purposes :)


follows right to the sentiment we try and be constantly mindful of ~ "relish each day as you live it"...

life's too sweet not too :)

Have a blessed week!

  1. I love this blog and the sentiments within~ John and Ella could not be sweeter~ I hope that Ella's first phrase won't be "Stop Ella, stop'.......oh, John you are going to wear yourself out saying that....might want to build your tower two blocks wide.....leaning a lil' each time....oops..there it goes again....Ella seemed impressed though! So much love and so many wonderful blessings~ thank you for sharing the love~ Mama
