Hey Mom!

The Big Jump!

My little fishy.

Mally just finished her two week swimming lesson program with Mr. Luke at Moores Mill pool. She did an excellent job and learned a lot. She is actually swimming on and off now! Her and her little friend, Katie were so cute. Their favorite part was splashing Mr. Luke and getting him all wet.....oh, and the candy they got when they finished. Yum!

I'm so proud of her....

She's my little fishy!

Fun in the Sun!

I am NOT leaving the pool yet!

We had a good little family trip to Destin for a few days. The weather was beautiful! Once I planted myself on the beach in the sun listening to the waves crash and feeling the soft sand beneath my feet not much else mattered. It was wonderful to watch the kids play and relax a bit.

Wishing you some fun in the sun, too!(:

PS Left my nice camera at home, but plan on taking some better pictures later this summer so get ready!

Claire's concert at PKWY

Claire walking in to start the show....a tad nervous...can u tell?

Not to sure about this, mommy.
Kiss from Wilson makes it all better.(:

Claire's class put on a precious program at PKWY for the end of the school year. They did a fab job! I'm really going to miss her sweet teachers...Courtney an Jill. They were the best! BTW That's Claire's sweet boyfriend, Wilson. Isn't he a doll!

Too Cute!

Thanks to Molly for letting me steal the pictures from your blog...u da best!!

Mother's Day a Day Late

Okay, so I'm a day late..... but I wanted to write about what Mother's day means to me. So here goes...

Being a mother is my WHOLE world! I love it with every ounce of my being. It completes me...feels my soul with happiness, and gets me out of bed every morning....literally!(:

I live each day for and with my children and can't imagine not having them in my life. They're my motivation and inspiration. They're my everything! One day, they'll know and understand the sacrifices I've made for them. One day, they'll understand how much they mean to me. For now, I enjoy and cherish each and every cry, yawn, sneeze, and snuggle. I hug them tight and breathe in their sweet smell.

Thank you...Kimbell, Mally, and Claire. You're my lil saviors.

I love you!

Mommy

Sweet Cousins!

Had to post this sweet picture of my super sweet, beautiful cousins and my girls. It was taken at Allie's Bridesmaid Luncheon at my Aunt Laura's house here in Auburn. Thought it turned out cute and found myself thinking about how lucky I am to be in such a tight, close family...I'm truly blessed!

There's actually nine Dyas granddaughters and one grandson....Garrett.

We missed yal!(:

A couple more shots behind the scenes of Allie's wedding...told you I took tons of pictures...what else does a proud mommy do?(:

A Love Story

Make video montages at www.OneTrueMedia.com

So...I had to post this video! It was about 5-10 minutes before the "big walk" down the aisle and Taylor Swift's Love Story song came on the DVD player. I think all the Bridesmaids were trying to calm Allie down a bit by singing and dancing...too sweet!

Take note...I was NOT singing! Just wanted to clear that up for you.(:

PS- Dont forget to pause my iPod to the left so you can get the full effect of their wonderful singing voices. LOL
Enjoy!
