Memorial Day

We had a great Memorial Day weekend. Seth got off early Friday and we spent Friday through Monday swimming. We had lots of fun and are actually sick of the sun...which does not happen in my little family of four very often. We spent the entire 3 days getting in lots of great family time, eating yummy food, and swimming. Here are some pictures of our weekend. Somehow I got NONE of Papaw, Mimi, or me. I hate when I do that, but I am SOOOOOOO not into picture taking these day! Maybe when our lives settle down a bit, then I will try harder!!

Don't fall out of your chair in disbelief. This is Jules actually falling asleep on Aunt Summer. We didn't force a nap since she was right in the middle of all the fun...so she ended up just crashing on Monday. Three days of swimming will do that to even the strongest-willed 2 year old!


BEAUTIFUL lashes and lips!!!




Monday night movie night. After all that partying, it sure does feel nice to take a bath, get on clean jammies, and snuggle up to watch a movie in the AC!!!!!

A Day at the Ballpark

Seth and I finally took the girls to see their very first Rangers game at The Ballpark in Arlington. It was hot and after a long day of school...so I wasn't quite sure how things wold work out. Well, the girls had a blast! We were up pretty high, so the wind was blowing and keeping us cool. It also wasn't very crowded, so the girls just got to run around, dance, eat, and have a ball! Jillian was yelling for the Rangers and everyone kept turning around and looking at the cutest little Ranger fan that ever lived! I took her out once to go to the bathroom and while we were in there she said she wanted to go back and watch The Razorbacks play some more! That's our girl...she knows our teams!!! Here are some pictures of the girls at their first live sporting event!

I am a huge Cowboys fan, but can you believe this was my first time to see Jerry's World in person??? It is the most beautiful stadium EVER!!!

Toddlers and Tiaras

Jillian just had her dance pictures last week, and the studio wanted the girls to wear mascara, blush, and lipstick. Now I get that this is a dance thing and I am fine with that. What I don't get are these crazy moms out there forcing their little girls into this nonsense all the time! Jillian was miserable and by the time class was over, her mascara had smeared everywhere and she looked like the morning-after crack wh*re! :) But, anyway...here are the pictures of Jillian with makeup at her dress rehearsal.


Are her lashes not ridiculous in mascara????





such a little poser!


She is so happy and proud of her outfit here!



Jillian and Ms. Lane, her teacher


Jillian and Violet




Aren't they some cute bunnies????
This better be the only time Jillian is a bunny...if you know what I mean.
