Talk About Tuesday!

So who ends school at the beginning of the WEEK??  Here is Sarah Rose preparing to leave for her last day at Best Beginnings.  Now she is officially a STARS, TOO!  She is sad that I will not be her teacher in my old room next year BUT...I have assured her Miss Connie and Miss Gloria are the BEST!!

Molly can't get close enough to her cousin Cayden!  She jumped right up onto the table.  HELLO...do we climb on furniture at MeMe's?  Apparently ... WE DO!
I am excited to be taking part in a blog swap with Sweetteadiaries.blogspot.com !  It is for everything summer!!  I am not sure it is summertime yet...weather doesn't seem to want to cooperate with us!  Things I plan to do today so that I feel like it is summer....

                  1. Take cover off pool

                  2. Set out furniture around said pool

                  3. Enjoy the sunshine that we have right now!!

Hope your Tuesday is good to you!

THINGS WE LOVE ABOUT MONDAYS...

Thinking back on what a fun weekend we had, for one thing!  Ty Fenton was here for a little playtime while his mommy and Grebbie were off to a funeral.  Cayden came over just to see his buddy Tyler.

After a friendly greeting... Cayden so HAPPY to see Ty... the wrestling match begun...
First Cayden had the upper hand...

then Tyler pulled a fast one and overtook Cayden...

But. being bigger does have its advantages!! Cayden WINS!

Tyler says..."Hey, you wanna go again big guy?  I will beat you at golf any day!"  They were so adorable together!  Thanks for letting me watch him Melissa!  We had so much fun!
 
Sisters, who show up at Meme's house at 6:30 am, who sit on Meme's lap and snuggle a few minutes and then fall back asleep till 8:30!!  Matching book ends!

But best thing about Mondays are... POWDERED DONUTS!!

Happy Birthday Mom!  Thinking about you...

House Work...

Dan is in the process of becoming a Homeowner!  Already a condo owner...sadly he misses out on the tax break for new home owners.  Dan found this cozy ranch that belonged to my friends' parents.  In fact, my friend Carole, grew up in this house.  Its fun that it has such history, and that we know of the family that was raised inside its doors.   It sits on over 1/2 an acre, with a open backyard, great for Kayla, Dan's dog!  Dan and Dagmara have lots of plans for making it their own... painting, taking down walls, fencing the yard to name a few!  Its fun to watch their excitement as they measure, draw and plot what they will do!  I started to help with some wallpaper removal and I hear Dag's mom is anxious to help out too!!  Somehow working at someone else's house is so much more fun, isn't it?  Now they just wait for the loan to close and then off they go...

Rainy Days and Thursdays....REVISITED!

Painting makes us HAPPY!                      Flowers make us SMILE...

Aunt Doodie brings us funny masks...

Then we look outside and see the rain has stopped...

Just waiting on the sun to shine on this Thursday morning!

Then the sun came out ...  so we went out too!!!

Meme's Gems First Concert!

Bridget and I took Sarah, Molly and Cayden to their first concert at Quaker Steak in Sheffield yesterday.  The local band Lawless started the outdoor concert.  Cayden could not sit still...he jumped and bounced, he loved hearing the music!  The girls danced and danced around!  Sarah asked if she could wear her "pretty dress" and Molly wanted to wear a "tutu"!!  Sometimes, you just have to say YES!!!

We went because we knew the second performer was JESSICA ANDREWS,  who sings a favorite song of ours... WHO I AM!  Sarah was excited to see Jessica come on the stage.  She joined right in and belted out some of her favorite lyrics from Jessica's cd!





So much fun!  We can't wait for the next big show!

Talent!

Enjoy this! Listen all the way to the end for the story behind Jon's mixing these two songs together. What little girl wouldn't want Jon for a Daddy??




Jon Schimdt at the piano... Incredible!

Practice, Practice, Practice!!

Molly working hard at figuring out how to stay upright on the trampoline!!!












Maybe tomorrow!

Pictures!

Fun with Sarah!  She is such a good sport!  Her Aunt Doodie and her Uncle Dan love to tease and mess with her.  She takes it all pretty well and even seems to enjoy it!!










                                                             Love Her!

            Happy Birthday to Meme!  Another memory...
