Summer Fun & Cousins

Dear Addilyn,  Thank goodness for swimming pools and slip n slides!  Boy have you enjoyed yours!

This summer has been extremely hot!!  We've tried to keep cool in the water.

Samuel doing a little slip n slidin

I LOVE this pic of Seth and Samuel.  They are handsome little fellas.

Here are you and Alli

You and Anna-Kaye.  This was at Anna-Kaye's State softball tournament.

Samuel eating a watermelon that Daddy grew.  It was huge!! And good!

And lastly you playing with a ball.  You've really gotten good and throwing and catching balls.  Momma is so proud.  Can't wait to see you on the field!!

We are all so ready for Fall.  It has been like 100 degrees since May- with no rain either!

Love you, Momma

                
                                                                
                                                             

Working in the Garden

Dear Addilyn,  Daddy and Momma planted a garden this year.  You were a BIG helper!  Can't wait to have fresh veggies to go along with our fresh eggs! We are sooo becoming the Ingall's family!

There MIGHT be some dirt in that hair!!!

(we have since realized most of our stuff isn't growing-so looks like we may have to start over-ha!

Daddy planted you some blueberries and strawberries. Hopefully those will come up next year.  We'll see...

Love you, Momma

Outside in the Rain

Dear Addilyn, Here's some cute pics of you playing outside in the rain one evening. 

Aunt Kimmy got you these rain boots and you were trying them out.

Lotta good they did but oh well

Here you are trying to eat rocks

And lastly my beautiful Bradford Pear tree

It stunk something awful but was pretty to look at.

Love you, Momma

Playing Outside

Dear Addilyn, You LOVE to play outside!!  If it's hot we strip you down.

If it's cold we bundle you up.

If the weather is perfect we go to the park.

Here you are riding the lawn mower with Daddy.

Taking a break on the steps.

Swinging

And this is one of your favorite things to do...playing in the mud!!

Those boots washed right up.  ha!

Love you, Momma

Snow!

Dear Addilyn, this is you at 15 months.  At first you cried when you fell down but after momma wised up and put gloves on your hands you loved it!

We vistied Papa and Mamaw's.  You had on so many clothes you could hardly walk.

Harley had a blast! He's so cute. 

This was your very 1st snow in 2010 when you were 3 months old.

Love you,

Momma
