Ainslie Rose...

Goofing around before leaving for soccer practice!

Fun Day at the Farm!

We took the girls to Deanna Rose Children's Farmstead on Saturday afternoon to walk around and enjoy the "cooler" weather!  ;)

WONDER WOMAN!

Take a picture of me flying like Wonder Woman, Mom!  ~Ainslie, Age 6

1st Practice w/09 Academy Rush Girls!!

Ainslie went through Rush competitive soccer camp and tryouts at the beginning of the summer.  She was asked to be a part of the 2009 Academy Rush Girls team and she accepted!  We have been waiting all summer long to start practice and her 1st practice was on Tuesday evening.  She loved every minute of it!

 You can't see with her backpack on, but she chose #99 for her jersey bc it was the highest number available!  ;)

Summer Nights...

We have been spending a lot of time on our new patio this summer.  It's such a cozy spot to relax!

Emilie Irene

Kindergarten Meet & Greet!

Emilie was invited to a Kindergarten Meet & Greet at Wolf Creek Elementary playground last night.  Several families participated and Emilie was able to meet some new friends and classmates!  It was a super fun night!

Checking out the playground she will play on this coming school year!

 Emme & Ava hand in hand.  Glad that Em will have her BFF starting school with her!

 The local fire department stopped by to cool the kiddos off on a HOT summer night!

So fun!!

Guest Spot: Mom's Birthday Party!

I turned 36 this week and we had all of our family and friends over on Saturday night to celebrate!  It was a great night!

Ready for Kindergarten!

Grammie bought Emilie her "big girl" backpack and matching lunchbox, just like she did for Ainslie when she was going into Kindergarten.  It came in the mail this week and Em loves wearing it around the house!  I can't believe that my baby is headed off to Kindergarten in just a few short weeks!

Gymnastics Thursday...

Emilie is continuing her gymnastics class through the month of July and she is still loving it.  She has become much more flexible and can even do a cartwheel!

Our New Patio...

Our new patio is really coming along.  I snapped a few pics as I decorated for the 4th outside!

 Our new furniture came in on Friday afternoon!

 All that is left to do is wrap the beams in stone and then our patio will be done!

Fourth of July!!

We started the morning with our neighborhood parade.  We got to ride on Melanie and Ava's golf cart!

 Em, Ava, and Ains ready to go!

 After the parade, we packed up and headed to my parents house for family time, swimming and BBQ!

 After dinner, we drove back to Spring Hill and shot off a TON of fireworks with our family and friends!!
