Mississppi Adventure

Today we went to the Mississippi River to play. I was a little nervous, but we ended up having a great day. We had so much fun we even plan on going camping next weekend. Here are some pics of the day. As you can see the kids had a blast and did not want to leave.

Update: i just added a couple of pics from this morning

I was just going to give a little update of how MB is doing at school. She is absolutely loving every second of it, she says now that it is even more fun than being at home. I would take offense to that but I know that this is all new and exciting to her and as long as she is happy I am happy. I will post some pics of her soon. This was soooooo hard for me but it is gradually getting easier. I will say though, do not take one second for granted with your children, the time goes by way too quick. If I could have change any of the time at home with Mary-Beth, I would have sat in the floor with them to play just a little more. Before I knew it, the time was gone and now she will spend the next 12 years of her life with the majority of the day in school. I have to now depend on the teachers to be a good role model for her. I know that Will and I will also be but 8 Hours of each day is now with them. At least I know this first year she has a great one.

MARY-BETH'S FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL

I cannot believe that this day is here. I have been a basket case all morning. I am doing good about not letting her see it though. Will and I were on our way back from taking her to school, her asked me if I was going to make it through the day. I really don't know what I am going to do here without her. Luckily I am watching Landry for a few hours today. Maybe this will help some.

Here is Daddy telling her by.
Here is Mrs. Harvey telling the class what to do. As you can see I stayed a long time this morning. Ya'll may need to call and make sure I don't find any other reasons to go back to the school today. I think she may need an extra change of clothes, just in case?????

Gretta's 5th Birthday

Gretta turned five, I cannot believe it. The kids are all growing up soooooo fast. She had a real girly party. Everyone had alot of fun.
They enjoyed ice cream float and yummy cake. Gretta was very precise about how she wanted Kathy to make her cake. It turned out beautiful!!!! Lane loved the little umbrellas in the floats. He is always such the comedian.
All the kids dived into the pool to cool off after playing so hard at the party.

Open House

I cannot believe that we had open house for Mary-Beth. It was a great turn out their. I think it is really going to be a GREAT school.

Here is Mary-Beth in front of her classroom door and with her teacher, Mrs. Harvey.

This is the principal, Mickey Ginn. She is very enthusiastic.
Cameron modeled the school uniform.
Here is my sweet baby girl sitting in her chair that she will be in everyday.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY aunt Tracy!!!! We love you!!!!

Summer Fun Ending and 3-D Movie

I can not believe we only have one more week before Mary-Beth starts Kindergarten. Time has flown by this summer.

Hannah Montana 3-D came on tonight and of course Mary-Beth had to watch it. We went to Walmart after going to the Water Park to pick up the 3-D glasses. Even though we saw the Hannah Montana concert at the theater when it came out, Mary-Beth was excited to see it again.

Will even joined in and put on his glassed to see it.
