Warmin up

August 11, 2015

First, happy birthday to Granddaddy Brown today! We hope it’s a GREAT day full of all good things!!! We love you!

Second, Soccer season is about to begin so gotta start warming up and getting ready for the games! Unfortunately, when it’s about 100 degrees at 4:00 in the afternoon, it doesn’t take long to “warm up” at all! Still, we all walked down to the field on Sunday to get a few kicks in…

Maxwell gets to have “Coach Dad” for another year and he did great getting back into it. He also kept complaining that if he didn’t get any water he was “going to die”. It was hot.

Spencer is actually a good little player too. Unfortunately, he’s going to have to wait another year to play. Maxwell’s games this year will be from 2:00 to 3:15 and Spencer’s games would be from 4:00 to 5:00. There’s just no way we can spend 3 hours every Sunday on the field. So, baby brother will have to hold off but that’s ok.

Samantha enjoyed it all from the hot stroller. Fun times. She better get used to it though! There’s going to be lots of weekends at the ball field in her future!

After they were all done with soccer, we headed over to the playground to sweat it out a bit more.

Cousin love

August 6, 2015

What a treat we had on Tuesday! My cousin, Amy, stopped through Birmingham on the way to the beach with her husband, Birc, and two cute kiddos, Savannah and Walker. Amy is the daughter of Daddo’s brother, John. She lives in Little Rock and it was so great to have her in my town!

The kids got along great – Savannah will be 4 in December and Walker will be 2 in September so they fit right in with the boys. They played upstairs, ran around outside, ate some dinner and hung on the couch…

I think Savannah was a big fan of Maxwell! 🙂

Maxwell didn’t mind one single bit!!

I’m so glad all these sweet kids got to meet each other. I only wish we could get everyone together more often!

Second, not surprisingly, Susan has been creating a FANTASTIC summer for the kids. Every day is an adventure with Mrs. Susan! There have been visits to feed the ducks…

Trips to Bass Pro (where Spencer’s favorite thing was the fish mailbox! ha!)…

An outing to Alabama Theater to see Cinderella (the old animated version!)…

Visits to the park of course…

And as a VERY special treat, Maxwell got to go see the stage version of Mary Poppins at Red Mountain Theater. He loved it. Actually he said it was “absolutely great!”

I think his favorite part was Bert tap dancing to Chim Chimney, Chim Chimney, Chim Chim Che-ree! And he did ask me why he never gets to have a spoonful of sugar with his medicine! ha!

We love summer!

You lose some

July 29, 2015

Two weeks or so ago, the boys were dressed for church and Samantha actually woke up from her nap a little early so I decided to throw a cute dress on her and try for some pictures of the 3. Try being the operative word there. The boys were actually pretty willing participants but Baby Mantha just wasn’t having it.

Her brothers were smiling from ear to ear but she wasn’t happy at all.

Major grumpus.

I tried moving them to a different spot to see if that would help…

But she still just wasn’t feeling it…

Oh well, you win some, you lose some!

At least her outfit was cute!  😉
