A gift from a friend and went to the bay again!

I received a notice yesterday that something was at the mail for me...when I got there, a large box was waiting for me...I'm thinking, what the heck I didn't order anything! When I saw the name 'Donna' I knew that she had sent me something amazing again! This woman does such beautiful altered work! But when I took this fabulous creation out of the box I was flabbergasted! Thi doll is amazing...the attention to detail was outstanding! WOW! Thank you Donna! She has a place of reverence on my hutch, displayed for all to see!





My niece Alicia came down and spent the day with us the other day! We took off to the Bay for a few hours and the boys so enjoyed having their cousin around! She is so beautiful and such a sweet girl!

Here is Cody, just enjoying himself!

Mitchells Bay

My mom and I took my boys out to Mitchells Bay for a few hours of fun!!! Its a great place to let the kids swim because it is VERY shallow for LONG time. They have a great park there with a splash pad and LOTS of great outdoor play equipment!

here are some photos I took that day!











Hope you all have a fabulous day!

Pool Party!

Happy Birthday Honey!

Saturday night we went a beautiful wedding of Jon's cousin Sarah and her now hubby Peter. She was a gorgeous bride and he was the very handsome groom. Congratulations guys! We wish you many years of happiness!

It was also my hubby's b-day so on Sunday we went to his sisters and brother in laws for a BBQ and some pool time. I got some fun shots of the kids enjoying the pool

here is Cody...he says he looks like the creature from the black lagoon lol!



Cody has NO fear of water! He loves to cannonball! Anyways I got a couple of great shots of him jumping in!



Tyler on the other hand likes to laze around and float by the edge!


That is of course unless his daddy is giving out piggy back rides! Then he will venture to the deep end! Jon is the only one that can get Tyler away from the edge!




Of course Cody wanted a ride too!


Every time I went to take a photo of my handsome hubby he would drop back under the water...this is the best I could get! You can see the little devilish smile! he is so bad! gotta love him though!

Have a fabulous night everyone!
