Soccer time!!

Well we have had a two week break and now it is soccer time!!!

Just a few things...

We celebrated Kris' birthday this week.  Mom cooked his favorite meal which included ribs,  fresh corn, fried okra, fried potatoes and brownies.  As usual, it was delicious!  Me-Me & Tom took us out to Red Lobster to celebrate, that is always his pick for his Bday, as for me I HATE sea food!  But I struggle through it for his birthday.

Kaylee went to Shelbyville soccer camp this past week.  She had a blast, of course she said she didn't learn anything new but, "We got some good practice in!"  I guess "GOOD" practice cost $90.00 these days!!  Oh well.....

If you ordered something from my 31 party, I have it in!  If I haven't already got it to you, I will be in touch with you in the next few days.  THANKS to everyone who came or made an online purchase, I think Jennifer P. will agree that I had a great party!  And I am soooo happy with my merchandise, I already have another list of things picked out from the new catalogue!  This stuff makes great gifts!  If you would like to learn more about 31 visit Jennifer here. 

Congrats to our good friend Ginger M.  Not only is she a great friend but she taught Kaylee for two years at Barnyard Kids.  Anyway she tied the knot this afternoon in a beautiful ceremony.  It was so sweet, her two adult daughters (one is Kaylee's teacher for the summer program at Barnyard this year) gave her away as this is her second marriage.  We love you Mrs. Ginger!! 

Vacation Bible School 2008

VBS was great as usual, Kaylee really enjoyed herself!  Check out her new hair do...she had six inches cut off last week!

Dr. visit

Kara Brooke went to see Dr. Bradley today for her 2 month check up, she is now 12 lbs. 8oz. and get this....she is 24 1/4 in. long!!  That is a little more than 3 in. in 2 months!  Dr. Bradley said, "KB is going to be one tall chick!"  She also got three shots today and man I thought I was going to scream and cry right along with her.  She checked out great on everything else so we don't go back until she is 4 mo. old.  

Swim meet

The swim meet at Swanee went great, Kaylee got 3rd out of 29 in the freestyle competition and 5th out of 27 in the backstroke.  Needless to say we are very proud of her!

She did it...

Kaylee finally got first place in the backstroke competition Monday night!  Bless her little heart, she didn't even realize that she had won until she come over to me and man when she found out was was soooo excited...(just ask Sue-Sue, I think she called her like 20 times)  We travel to Swanee Saturday for the championship meet and that is it for swim meets this year.

Here is the Shark foursome!

Gracie Beth, Kaylee, Kayden, Taylor

Good Luck at championship girls!!!

Since we don't have a pool at our house....we have to settle for a slip & slide!

Kara Brooke is now sleeping in HER bed and she is sleeping about 6 hours...I call that all night!

Kara Brooke's first trip to the Avenue in the 'Boro...

Good times at the ball park

Adams Lawn Service came in second place this year...WAY TO GO!!!

Since so many of you have asked who made KB's beautiful birth announcements, I wanted to give a HUGE shout out to my friend M over at peekaboo-greetings. She did a fabulous job and all of the proceeds that she makes goes toward the adoption of the their little girl from China, is that not awesome? Also she can design or redesign your blog which she will be doing for me in Sept. so go ahead and check out her site for all of your greeting and blog needs! Thanks again M for a job well done!
