Day #59

There they go! This is my parent's vehicle driving off with my girls until next Saturday. Yes I said next Saturday, that is a total of 9 days! I'm pretty sure thats the longest they have been from home before. On one hand I'm thankful for the freedom but on the other I'm sad too. I know we'll miss each other but I also know they will have a blast hanging with the grandparents.
They will helping my mom with a garage sale this weekend, then my dad will be keeping them next week while mom works, then they'll be going to Dallas next weekend for one of my cousin's wedding receptions.
I think its very cool that my parents want to spend that time with my kids. I never had grandparents like that & was sometimes jealous of my friends who talked about how fun theirs were to spend time with. I hope my girls realize how blessed they are. I also hope as they grow older they will remember these times & look back & smile.
Thanks mom & dad for being the kind of granparents every kid deserves! Love yall!

Day #58

With school starting soon it is time for some new school clothes shopping! Makaylie, Taygan & momo did a little shopping today at Stage. The girls got to pick out 2 new outfits, which are incredibly cute of course!! They did a little modeling for us tonight while trying to decide which outfit is the ONE for the first day of school! Makaylie chose the green outfit & I don't think Taygan has decided yet, knowing her she will change her mind several times before now & then.

Day #57

These are some of my favorite people in the world!!! And yes I do work with them lol!
When you think about the amount of time you spend at work, especially if you work full time, you realize how important the people are that you spend your days with. I truly have gained some of my closest friends through my various places of work. When you don't have a good rapport with your coworkers it sure makes your days longer & harder. I feel very blessed to have a great relationship with everyone I work with & consider them more than just coworkers, I consider them great friends. Thanks to all of you for being such amazing people to know!!

Day #56

Aren't our sunflowers purty??

Day #55

Chey's mom (or momo as we call her) came to stay with us a few days today. Chey is going to Tulsa for a few days to the coaches clinic & we needed someone to stay with the girls while he is away. Makaylie & Taygan love their momo and the feeling is mutual. After having 3 boys & a grandson, momo was ready to have some girls to play with.

Day #54

We had our first Am-Po coed softball tourney to raise money for our baseball program. It was a blazing hot day, but we all survived & made a pretty good chunk of money for our program. We had 8 teams enter & also had a home run derby, which Chey won lol!! With the help of a couple of the baseball moms, me & the girls ran the concession stand. Without the support & helpfulness of this wonderful community, our program would not be as great as it is. We have been at schools before where there isn't and its so much more work & headache for us. We are hoping to make this an annual event since it went so well.

Day #53

At lunch today I did some shopping!!! My parents gave me $$$$ for my birthday & it was almost burning a hole in my pocket since I hadn't got to use it yet! There is the awesome little gift shop in Chickasha called TT's floral & gifts. They have everything from home decor to jewerly to baby clothes. It was the first time I had been in there & I could have very well bought one of everything!! Instead I used part of my gift & bought this cute purse & hat! Thank you mom & dad! You guys are the BEST!!!
