Friday

Friday was the end of the year party at Abby's school. They thought of everything, they had water play, games, inflatables, snow cones and then hot dogs for lunch. Abby, Breanna and Ella enjoying their snow cones. They love to jump! When we got home Abby was ready to try riding her bike again. She finally got it!!! But she has not mastered turning yet. I had to snap a couple of pictures of Abby and Tabor and this is what I got! Later we went to watch Madison play ball, it was her last game of the season and she did so good! Abby had a blast running around with Carlee, and Tabor.

Trying to ride without training wheels.

This was Thursday afternoon, Abby was trying so hard to ride her bike without training wheels. Tabor and Carlee started riding their bikes and Abby said she wanted to learn too. She was so determined but we finally told her "we have to go in it is pitch dark out here". You can tell Tabor was right there by her side, coaching her how to ride. She has clets on because she and her daddy were hitting softballs in the yard. You just never know about this girl a few weeks ago she didn't care anything about hitting a ball.

Happy Mothers Day

On Mothers Day we went back to the river because my parents were down there and so were Jasons so we took their gifts to them. It was cool outside so when we took a boat ride we didn't go far but Abby drove the whole way back we told her left or right and she really did drive all the way back! She is growing up quick. Happy Go Lucky Girl!! This is my plate that Abby made with her hand print and she gave me a flower pot with her finger prints made into bumble bees and butterflies. So cute!! I love it.

Saturday at the river.

We went to the river for a small family get together because my moms cousin was coming in from California for a few days. The weather was great and we all had a great time. The day before Jason and I were down there cutting grass and Abby kept saying she wanted to fish but we were busy and it was getting dark, so the next day on our way back down there we went to Wal-Mart to buy her a fishing pole. Jason said I'm not going to pass this up, if my little girl says she wants to fish, that's what we are going to do! We also stopped to get crickets, and I could not believe that she did not freak out, I just knew that when she saw them, it was going to end Jason's hopes, but she was okay, she even teased Carlee and Madison with them, putting the bucket in their face. You just never know about this girl. Everybody sitting around and eating and enjoying the day. This is Abby and my Uncle Jack, he loves fishing and he was all about helping Abby get her fishing pole ready for the water. Proud Moment! The walk down to the water, to see how long this fishing trip was going to last. And it last for about 2 hours, after we were on the pier for about 20 minutes most everybody went for a boat ride, even Carlee and Madison but Abby did not want to go she wanted to keep fishing. She did so good! She would even pet the fish, notice it is with one finger. She was not going to get it off the hook or throw it back in or bait the hook but who could blame her when your daddy will do it for you!! Carlee and Madison decided to see what was so fun about fishing so they joined in when they got back and they did really good too. These girls LOVE flip-flops. At the end of they day. (Yes Abby had to changed clothes just because at some point during the day.) Bronson is getting to be such a big boy. He got a big boy hair cut and is trying to crawl. He is such a cutie.

Marker.

(5-5-10)"I was trying to put the lid back on the marker!" (REALLY?????)

Rainy day.

Another rainy day. Abby and Tabor pretend to be at the beach. That would be nice wouldn't it?

Last day of cheernastics.

(4-29-10)Abby's last day of cheernastics with Mrs. Stacy. She has learned so much and has gotten really good with her motions. It is so cute when they get done with a cheer and she is "showing spirit"! Mrs. Stacy helping Abby with her backhand spring. Way to go Abby!

This was Abbys Halloween costume when she was 2 and she has been playing in it all week. She gets stuck on something for a few days and will wear it over and over. Anyway I took these pictures of Abby through the window because when she went outside to tell Tabor bye she didn't come right back in so I looked through the window and she was in the front yard dancing, the wind was blowing and you could tell she was in her own little world! It was such a sweet moment I even had Jason get the video camera out. She was waving to the birds that flew over and she would close her eyes and let the wind blow her dress and her hair with her arms stretched out and she would smile. Keep in mind she is outside all by herself, not knowing anybody was watching. So Sweet!! Later we were invited to Andrews 5th birthday party!!! What a fun party, there were 3 small pools, a trampoline, slip and slide and a swing set. All the kids were playing their hearts out. After hotdogs, cake and homemade icecream I finally talked Abby in to leaving, she had a great time. The birthday boy! Abby and Sarah were so cute swinging together, Sara is such a mess, she was dancing and playing just as hard as the big kids!

(4/23/10)This is what I am dealing with DAILY, this child of mine likes STUFF and she has LOTS of it!!! This is just a very SMALL sample but it was at 6:00 in the morning, as soon as she was awake and I got her dressed, I just had to take a picture because I'm sure one day I will not remember how much she liked purses full of stuff. Mckenzie is here!! She was born on 4/22/10, and she is beautiful with a head full of dark hair. Congratulations Leslie and Anthony. After work I rushed home to get Abby and we went to a pottery party her teacher invited us to. Abby and Tabor were playing when I got home so Tabor went with us. I was going to get something with both of their hand prints but didn't and now I really wish I would have.

(4/22/10)Just because. :)

Happy Birthday Mom

(4/19/10)We were suppose to go out to eat with my mom and dad and both of my brothers and their families Sunday night, but we were not able to make it so Monday on her birthday we took BBQ and had supper with them. And Abby gave GranJan her gift. Hope you had a wonderful Birthday!!

Saturday

(4/17/10)Saturday was so beautiful so we worked on the pool and in the yard all day, and Abby and Tabor played all day. They found something sweet to eat and they played house in the top of the swing set, I can remember those days like it was yesterday, such a girl thing. They changed clothes at least 3 times so I finally took a picture because they were prissing around in their high heels and they can really walk good in them too.

(4/14/10)This is the face I get when I tell her to smile. I know I have a lot of pictures of her in her jeep but she is always in this Jeep. She was changing the channel on the radio and then she stopped to pick me a bucket full of flowers!! Notice we are still outside past dark, it's just too much fun to come inside and take a bath. Oh yeah, thanks Pops for the whistle! Just what we needed!!

(4/12/10)Burger King.

This is a typical afternoon around our house now that we are having great weather!!

Happy Easter.

(4/4/10)The Easter Bunny came to see Abby!! Abby Tabor and Rhett in the yard after church. Jason, Allison and Abby. Abby and I played with her things and put together a puzzle while we waited on everyone to show up to Tannehill after church. Carlee, Madison, Abby and Bronson. Three girls and a baby boy. Abby and baby Maggie. We have started a tradition of going to Tannehill on Easter to have lunch, Jason family comes and Tammys. Easter always falls close to somebodies birthday, so we had a cake for my mom, Granny Jo, Jason and Justin. HAPPY BIRTHDAY! The girls and their power wheels. Abby even picked up a boy from somewhere! Abby took Maggie for a spin too, and she loved it! They are going to be such good friends growing up. We hid 90 eggs and these girls were on a mission, they didn't say a word they were hunting! We had fun seeing the Easter bunny and hunting eggs but we know the real reason we celebrate Easter, that Jesus is alive! We are all so blessed, every last one of us.
