the big 5-0

July 27, 2018

Last weekend we went down to Montgomery to celebrate a wonderful occasion – Granddaddy and Lou Lou’s 50th wedding anniversary! Robert, Ronnie, and Mary Beth planned a lovely party for them and we all had fun getting together, looking at old photos and videos, and celebrating the milestone.

Of course the cousins all loved getting to hang and help set things up beforehand…

That evening, the kids didn’t even miss us when we left – they were having too much fun at the awesome country club pool!

The party was wonderful. So many friends came to say “cheers” to the couple!

I’m so happy and honored to be a part of this family and proud to say I’ve been a part of at least some of those 50 years!

Cheers to 50!!

Cleaning out

July 23, 2018

Happy Monday! We had another good weekend of checking things off the list around home. We checked off the biggest item a few weeks ago when we did a MAJOR toy cleanout of the playroom. The kids were great about getting rid of things they don’t play with anymore…although some of the kids were more helpful than others! ha!

Robert ended up renting a van for the day because we had a few big items, like a lawnmower, to donate as well. We filled that van up!!

We took all the toys to a local daycare that could use them. I’m not sure the director really knew how much we were bringing her but hopefully all the toys found a great home. The kids were pretty proud of themselves as were Robert and I. We celebrated with ice cream of course!

The other good thing? When there’s plenty of room in the playroom that means plenty of room for…

the bounce house! Yes!

Here’s to a productive week ahead!

Campy

The key to a fun summer is staying busy with lots of free time. The boys had a few camps to keep busy…Maxwell had basketball camp earlier in the summer and then he also did soccer camp…
