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.

I can take Abby shopping (even though she is slow as Christmas and thinks she has to look at everything!),I can take her to doctor appointments with me, I can even take her to church and let her sit through the service with us and she does really good, but you take her to a restaurant and this is a sample of how she acts!!!! After we ate lunch at Guadalajara, Abby and I had a pedicure, this is the second time we have done this, we did it this time last year too. She thinks she is so big, and she acted great here too. Dying eggs!!

We attend Jason's moms new church for their Easter program and then Jabbo took us all out for lunch at Logans. Abby and the Easter bunny.

Easter Party

(4/1/10/)Today was Abbys Easter party at school. The Easter bunny came to see them and they all got to sit in his/her lap, (she told me later that the Easter bunny was wearing tennis shoes AND she had hands!). She doesn't miss a thing. While they were cleaning up I hide a ton of eggs on the playground and they a fun finding them, she has the sweetest class they are all good boys and girls, there was no fighting and I even caught some of them sharing the eggs they found. We had snack foods and drinks and then they all got surprises that their classmates brought. She left their with a bucket full of sweets, and we still have Valentines candy!!!

Saturday

(3/27/10)This morning we went to help Haley celebrate her 4 year old birthday. Abby had a great time jumping, these were all the pictures I was going to get of her because she was not interested in me taking pictures. This is Abby and her friend Cameron she takes dance with. Happy birthday Haley! After we changed clothes and got lunch we went to the horse show and had a picnic. All three girls rode Apachey in the tack walk. It was a great day to fly a kite, it was so windy today so we went to the ball park next to our house and flew a kite:)
