Tubin' on the TN River

The girls and I got to go play in the river for a few hours the other day. They're such big girls that they actually rode the tube by themselves.

Water Park

This week I've had 3 training days for school. So today we decided to take the girls to the water park right around the corner from us. Taylor was loving the slides. She even rode several of the big slides. This park has a very cool kid area. All the slides are body slides and have slide outs at the end, instead of a pool. So the water is never deeper than maybe 18 in. Cameron was a bit more apprehensive at first. She picked one little slide and just rode it over and over. One of our friends from lifegroup was there and the girls had fun playing with him. Eventually Cameron went down a couple other slides b/c Brayden did them. So I didn't take my camera (sorry), but here's a couple of pics of the park. We really had a blast!!!

Summer Fun

We went to the zoo yesterday. Unfortunately we got half way there and I realized I had forgotten the camera. Ugh!! I was frustrated with myself. We had a lot of fun and the girls really loved seeing all the animals. Then last night we found out that 7/11 was giving away free slurpee's b/c it was their 80th birthday. So the girls got to each enjoy their 1st slurpee's.


Today we went over to a friends neighborhood pool and swam. The girls really love swimming and of course so do I. Here's are a pic from swimming.

Braids & Home Depot

I braided the girls hair last night for lifegroup. It was the first time I was able to get both of them to sit long enough for me to braid it and amazingly the first time that neither one of them pulled them out at church. They even slept in them last night and woke up with pretty wavy hair.


We found out the other day that once a month The Home Depot has a kids workshop. They get to build something, and today they even had other fun things like a bounce house, face paint, and snacks. They had a lot of fun.

Happy 4th of July

We had a big day for the 4th. We went to a parade in the morning and got to see lots of cool things like fire trucks, old cars, and a mini horse. They had bounce houses and little games for the girls. We all had fun. Then we came home had baths, took naps, and cleaned the house. We had 4 other families from our lifegroup come over to our house for a cookout. The girls had fun playing with their friends. We went to Bedford to see the fireworks. We got a few pics of the girls with their friends Grayson and Brayden.

Splash Park

My online playgroup had a meetup today at a splash park. It was pretty cool, the water sprays out of the ground and other gadgets. It was free too, my favorite part.





Can the rain please stop????? It has come a downpour everyday for like the last 2 or 3 months. Our yard has been doing OK, but the past 2 days when the rain comes it isn't soaking down into the ground. So our backyard is becoming a little pond. We're ready for the rain to calm down a little. I guess at least it's not 104 degrees everyday like it was last summer, and most summers in Texas.
