July 4th Celebration.....

Since our husbands left us to go BBQ a pig we had to fend for ourselves on the July 4th holiday!! We ended up calling up Mama Dee and Daddy Bob and asking if we could tag along to watch fireworks with them.




Playing around and wasting time while we waited for it to get dark!!!



Little man was so good waiting for the fireworks to start!!!



Daddy Bob on grandbaby duty.....watching for airplanes and then fireworks!!!


Mama Dee doing grandbaby duty also!!!! Doesn't look like she minds much....but I could be wrong!!!


Waiting patiently for the fireworks to start....HAHA....Not!!! This was the split second they were sitting still!!!


Me and my babies!!!!


Watching the fireworks!!!! We had a great time...thanks for letting us tag along!!!

A small act of "Pay it forward"....

As I was unloading my buggy of groceries and kids at Wal-mart today, a woman came up to me. She said that she makes it a point to everyday do something nice for a stranger. She asked if she could take my buggy back inside for me since she said it seemed I had my hands full. Now mind you, I have done this before, but usually when I needed the buggy anyway. Which was not the case because this was one of those huge buggies with the attachment on the front for kids to sit in. NO ONE in their right mind would push these unless they had too. By "had too" I mean screaming kids saying "NOOOOOOO MOMMY, I WANT THAT BUGGY". You then give in because it's just not worth the fight. This lady took my buggy from the back of Wal-mart parking lot all the way to the front, put it in line, and then got her own buggy. Even Austin was impressed. He kept saying "wow mommy, that lady sure was nice". I told him that yes she was very nice. He then preceded to say "I think I will make her my girl, but I just don't know how old she is"!! LOL. What this had to do with the situation, only he knows. Anyway just thought I would post this because it really made me think about what she said about helping strangers. And even though it was a simple act it really did help me out a great deal!!! What a great thing to aspire to do everyday. Maybe I'll give it a try!!!

Camping....

We went camping this past weekend for the first time. We had an awesome time. When we got there the kids could not wait to jump in the water, clothes and all!!! Our campsite was great, right on the water. We had our own little private swimming hole, where we stayed almost the whole weekend. The first night there was a crazy thunderstorm with monsoon type rain and bad lightning. We hunkered down in our tent that, remarkably, did not leak. The kids were not phased at all. Abby fell asleep in the middle of it and Austin thought it was really cool. We cooked smores over our campfire, which Austin loved. Abby just loved to eat them. We had a blast and can't wait to go again!!!!!!
