Mommy Madness - out numbered by kids!


Lacy, Glady's and I joked about having a nice relaxing afternoon with our 6 kids combined... is there such thing as relaxing with 6 kids, splashing, jumping, throwing and catching kids... in the pool It really was fun hanging out with Lacy. We got to watch girlie movies, eat yummy food, and try to get our kids to take naps. Our best night was when ALL the kids went down at the same time. LOL. Gladys came over one night and we just chatted and watch sense and sensibility.... What neat woman they are and they are so fun to talk to, we laughed alot . Lacy had fun things to do, we went to the park, walked to see shops, we did crafts, played monster trucks and celebrated Joseph's birthday. What a fun 4 days. THANKS LACY IT WAS A FUN MEMORY.

Marco Island Beach trip with Lacy- What a blast!!!

The City Park - the kids had so much fun playing in the water and making the ball float in the fountain.

















Hunter loved to play in the fort playground, running thru the maze. Check out the outfit... Hunter picked it out... He was just not matching that day. :)



















This was the view from the condo... OH MY GOSH IT WAS BEAUTIFUL. We were on the 15th floor so we could see so many different angles and the sunset was beautiful. It was heaven to wake up each morning and see the beautiful ocean, calm and crisp. We even got to see a couple lighting storms. I love to see storms over the ocean.














Lacy is such an amazing mom with patience and joy for her calling as a mother of these 2 beautiful children. You can just see from her face that she is such a proud mom. I loved our chats and girl time... it was fun to spend time with them.




















Some fun beach time with Hunter.... mommy and Hunter went looking for shells one evening. There was a nice breeze and I felt so calm and peaceful and was greatful for this time with my son.




Hunter loved to play in the pool much better than the ocean, the salt water seemed to bother him. He did enjoy making his boat float in the ocean.





















Crazy kids having fun... Emily came down for the day with Jocelyn she fit right in with all the kids. They had a great time playing.... Oh nice finger in the nose Hunter... LOL :) Glady's and her family where also there. Glady's and Joe (mom and Dad) where both there, Hunter called them granny and papa, he just made them part of the family. Hunter and I had such a great time spending time with the Lowry's. They are an amazing family.















The boys playing football on the beach...

Mudding Madness!!

Hunter loves to ride his 4-wheeler around the yard, but today I caught him.... breaking loose and doing some mud boggin in the dirt road in front of our house. This was so amusing to me to see my little guy out in the MUD in his NICE polo shirt, underwear, NO SHOES AND NO SHORTS.... helloooo. What are the neighbors gonna think. Mom came to the rescue to pull him out. He was big trouble for going in the road but he sure did have a fun time playing in the mud.














Hunter's creative side



I heard Hunter in the office one afternoon just talking away and I peeked my head in and this is what I found... he had decorated his firetruck with all his stickers. It was so cute to see how creative he was. Hunter loves to color and show mommy and daddy his accomplished project.

My Young Woman Girls Sleep Over

The girls came over to learn how to make "Heidi Russell's famous sausage stars" and pie on Wednesday night. The sausage stars were a HIT! By the end of the night we had a slumber party planned for the next night. So all the girls came back over on Thursday for a girls sleepover, fun filled night of fireworks, movies and riding the 4-wheeler... slow of course. We watched movies and ate, ate ,ate,.... Ashlea Gooch and I crashed at 1 and the girls where just putting in another movie... ahh to be young and full of energy. It was a fun night.
