These are for you Gammer... Anne gave me strict instructions about the pictures she wanted you to see from this weekend! So here they are!


Here she is doing her ballerina jump into the pool. Her perfect handstand! She gets her toes pointed just right.

Allison. She didn't include this one. I'm just throwing it in here.

On her bike tonight. She has totally mastered it now. We don't even have to be near her anymore. She can do her sharp turns in the street, brake, and get herself started on either foot. She was so proud of herself tonight. She kept saying "Man, I really got the hang of this now!" and "Man, I feel so good on this bike!". It was so cute. She told me to go in the house and get the camera so she could show you!

Allison haulin' butt down the sidewalk. She is going to give me a heart attack on that dang scooter.

Playing at Holly and Bop's house... The girls had a great time playing with Holly and Bop today! They played outside on the bikes, scooters, and swing for hours!

This one is a little blurry but I kept it because Anne looks SO GROWN UP to me here.

Enjoying a popsicle. It was hot out there!

They all loved the rope swing!

But I think Bop liked it the best! She had the best time on that thing.

Hey! Where did my teeth go?

Trip to Atlanta... The girls and I made a quick trip up to Atlanta this weekend. We had a nice time visiting with Uncle Larry, Aunt Mary, Shorty, Jenny, and Ella! The cousins packed a lot of fun into two days! They had fun coloring eggs and lots of playing outside. It was great to see everyone!

I swear. That kid.

Two future Nascar racers. They were nuts on this thing!

Off they go! Full speed down the hill and around the corner!

SCOOTER CRAZY! Sam fell in love with that darn scooter!

Anne lost a tooth at dinner on Saturday night! Look at that mouth!

Spring Season is under way... The Red Hots are off to a great start so far this season! They have won all 3 of their games and are playing so well! It's amazing to see how far they have come since the fall. Anne is doing really well and is having so much fun. We are so lucky to have found such a great team! GO RED HOTS!

Home improvements suck... I want my house back! Everything is out of place and covered in dust. Troy has been working hard to get the Pergo floors done. Hopefully just a few more days.

We had the tile done in the kitchen last week. I really like it! We got the piano room finished and put back together on Monday night.

Troy got most of the hallway done the past 2 nights.

And now it's on to the living room! What a mess!

My Drama Queen... Anne got in really really big trouble last night. She was sent to her room around 5:30 and was told she was staying there the rest of the night. That has never happened before. I think she thought I was kidding at first. She sat in there all cocky for the first 15 minutes or so. Then she started to realize she wasn't coming out. Then the begging and pleading started. Shortly after that she started sending letters out to me via Allison.


Here is the first one. She must have been super ticked because it's addressed to Amy instead of Mommy.
I am not supposed to live here.

Plans to run away.

I love the way she slipped in that Allison made up the plan at the end.

I didn't say a word about the first letter. So since being a brat and threatening to run away didn't work, she switched to suck up mode.

Since that one didn't work on me either, she moved on to writing to Daddy. The letters didn't work on him either so she gave up all together and just cried about how sucky her life is. I think just maybe she will finally start listening to us.
