Birthday “Re-do”

Katie definitely felt her birthday was the best ever with her Daddy coming home. But she’s still only 5 so I wanted her to have her afternoon at Chuck E. Cheese that’s she’s been wanting and to get to pick dinner. So Yaya came to get her to pick Lilli up in car line (something so fun about Yaya’s car!) and I met them there after school. 

They loved playing with her and racking up as many tickets as they could for all the prizes. :) We picked up Johnny’s pizza and went home to eat with Daddy who had all of the new birthday toys from Yaya and Capn ready to be played with. 

(Which was especially sweet considering how this medicine makes him feel and I was fully prepared to walk in to this project) 
I think she was happy with this 2nd birthday too. 

And on a different note... I’m going to miss Lilli’s teacher so much. I definitely have mixed emotions that there are only 15 more school days. I got pictures from their field trip to Art Expo today. (No parents allowed this time) I’ve never had a teacher make such an effort to send pictures and keep me updated on how she’s doing. (And I’ve had some good ones) But I’ve definitely been spoiled by Mrs. Nugent



She had a great time today!

I think someone may be a little spoiled....

  So Lilli has been sick the last two days with a croup cough.  She's had fever and the cough has been nasty so Mom has been making her stay in.  I think she is getting a little stir crazy and decided what she wanted to do instead.  It started when I told her we were going to see Yaya for lunch tomorrow.  Yaya is being so sweet and going to entertain her for a bit while I get my hair cut and then we'll grab some lunch.  I know someone that will be excited to get out of the house but especially to see her Yaya!

Summertime!

Yesterday was Bossier’s last day of school, but we’ve been in summer mode since they got done LEAP testing a couple of weeks ago. It’s honestly so dumb that they had 10 days of school after testing because they did NOTHING. There was a whole lot of movie watching and playing on computers. On top of the fact that grades were due over a week ago, so it’s not like there was much they could have done. We stayed out on school nights, had pool days and skipped half days to hang with Pops, or friends or just to bake.  Katie had her awards and field day last Wednesday. She ended the year with Straight A’s and a member of National Honor Society. It was so fun to watch her compete in field day events and get to meet some more of her school friends too I checked Katie, Madison and Britney out of school when it was over, and they spent the afternoon in the pool and then we all (with Koy and Lil) went to Josie’s Tball game that night. It was the second one we’d been to in a week and I swear it’s th

For Christmas last year, Pops and Honey gave his 3 daughters and 4 granddaughters a weekend at a “dude ranch” for a gift. We picked the weekend because it was Anna and Piper’s spring break and it’s harder for Anna to miss school as a Junior than the other 3. The weather couldn’t have been anymore perfect and the timing worked out perfectly for us to celebrate Allie’s 40th birthday on the 4th too. They came in Thursday and Matt grilled steaks for her actual bday. I didn’t get one picture that night but it was a nice evening. The next morning, we got up and drove to El Dorado to the ranch. It was the “rancher’s experience” and we got in 3 rides, plus the kids got to help care for all the animals Dad has his own cabin and all 7 girls were in a bunk room together. After we were settled, we went to catch the horses in a field to take them to the stable to be saddled  The wranglers were very patient considering there were 8 of us and none knew how to help very much. But there was lots of tim
