Spencer's 10th birthday... Danielle and Megan's dog is turning 10 and they wanted Anne, Allison, and Rudy to help celebrate his birthday! It was Rudy's first birthday party and he was on his best behavior! :) All the kids got a big kick out of it and everyone had a good time!

Rudy and the birthday boy!

Allison loves swimming at Megan's house because they still have a diving board! Those are hard to come by now!

Jumping in!

Two pretty brown eyed girls!

They even had a cake!

One word describes this picture T-R-O-U-B-L-E!

The gift opening got a little crazy. Rudy just couldn't stay in his seat! :)

Happy Father's Day... Granddaddy Keith came over tonight to celebrate Father's Day. We grilled out and then they played outside with Granddaddy. The girls just love when he comes over! They love when he rides their scooters and they make him play all sorts of silly games. He never says no! :)

Troy and his girls!

And to Bumpa, Happy Father's Day! I'm sorry we weren't together today but I hope you had a great day! Thanks for being such a great dad and putting up with me all these years!

Yes, his shirt really says "One Wild and Crazy Guy"! Hey, it was the 80's, the decade of iron on t-shirts.

Happy Birthday Shalane... The girls celebrated Shalane's birthday Sunday! We started off the night with the movie Knocked Up and laughed until we cried! We all thought it was hysterical! Then we headed over for dinner at The Cheesecake Factory. It was the perfect night out... fun movie, good food, and great friends! I hope you had a wonderful birthday Shalane!

Bop's Birthday... Brooke turned 2 last week and everyone had a great time at her party on Saturday! Lots of swimming and fun with friends! Happy Birthday Bop!

Party Friends!

Allison always has to be the clown.

Yummy Cake!

I think she likes it!

Smiley Girlie!

First trip to the beach... The girls have been dying to get to the beach and we were finally able to go yesterday. It is one of their favorite things to do in the summer!


Just another cute shot of my girl!

The Old Florida Museum... Anne's Brownie troop took a trip down to the Old Florida Museum last week and the girls had a great time! They learned a lot of neat facts about Florida history and got to try out some fun old games and chores!

Candle making! They each got to take a candle home too.

A weekend at Gammer and Bumpa's house... We had a good time at Gammer and Bumpa's house over Memorial Day weekend. The girls basically went from their jammies, to their swimsuits, and back to jammies. They got lots of pool time on this trip!

Searching for Bumpa's Octopus

As you can see by their faces, they weren't quite sure whether to believe Bumpa about the octopus or not!
