Sprinklers!

This boy loves a good sprinkler run!!

Oh What Do You Do In The Summer Time?

Catching frogs is a favorite past time at our house. They always beg to keep them but somehow they mysteriously disappear. Brayden's explanation "he can jump really high so he must have jumped out of the bucket," yeah, we will go with that explanation!

I love Potatoes

Preston thought this was so cool he wanted to keep it forever! I wonder how much I could have gotten for it on ebay?!

Sleeping On The Job

Brayden fell asleep late in the afternoon so I brought him into the kitchen to help me make dinner, with hopes that it would wake him up. It didn't work!

Shot

Brayden got his 4 year shots today. He was pretty tough and they were surprised at how quiet he was getting them but he's feeling the effects tonight. He told me "the not doctor (referring to the nurse) made it hurt bad, I can not do that again." Poor little thing is hobbling around whispering to himself "boy these shots really hurt" and "dang this hurts bad"

Climbing The Walls

There is a reason I call him monkey!

Another year older

This year my birthday celebrations were pretty low key because this cute guy was still recovering from his tonsillectomy. Ashley set up a birthday get together at Peachwave Yogurt. As you can see Preston was okay with the idea.

I think Andrew was wearing as much yogurt as he ate!

Ashley, Emory & Oliver

Dessert was followed by lunch at Pei Wei with Janna and her boys

Preston taught Mason various uses for chopsticks

And was also the official photographer!

Alecia gave me a beautiful necklace and bracelet, and the mailbox was full of birthday cards. My sweet visiting teachers, Megan and Mary Jane brought me more beautiful flowers. I could get use to having fresh cut flowers on my table!

The night was topped off by my sneaky husband and sister. TThey surprised me with a little get away. Cherie stayed with the kids and Trent and I went to dinner and got to spend a night away in this luxury mobile! It came complete with chocolate covered strawberries, propel and peanut m&m's. They know me so well!

My Favorite Piece Of Art Work

Driveway art by Preston Smith! I think it looks just like me!

What happens in the dark

He must have been exhausted to not have even been able to remove his finger from his nose before falling asleep!
