Sister is 3 years old!!!

Well, Riley Kate turned 3 and had about 3 birthday parties with family and we are still going to have 1 more for her friends--can we say Princess?? She is so funny-she really thinks her birthday is not just on July 14, but the whole month of July!! I love this little wild woman more than anything!! God gave us Riley Kate to keep us on our toes, and boy, she does just that!! She has developed such an outgoing, friendly personality--she will be such the little social butterfly!! She walks in every room like she owns it--no matter who is in there or what is going on!! I absolutely cannot imagine life without this precious little girl!! We love her so!!

Weekend at the Beau

Shade, Julie, Jason and I all took a long weekend getaway to the Beau Rivage!! We had so much fun!! It was some much needed R & R!! I am already ready to go back-haha!!

We have been doing so many activities this summer and loving every minute of it!! Grayton and Riley Kate love to play with their sweet little friends, and we have really had so much fun with them this summer!!

We have really had so much fun this summer in our pool! We spend every afternoon swimming together!! Grayton has turned into such a little fish-he swims so well and Riley Kate is not far behind!!

Double Decker Festival

Jason and I ran the Double Decker 10K, but almost missed it!! It's a 7:30 am start time which is relatively early compared to most other races, and to make it to Oxford with children prepared for a festival weekend, well let's just say it's a feat to pull off. We literally parked the car 2 minutes before start time!! But thanks to Aunt Ali, who had our packets waiting for us, we handed off the kids and sprinted to the starting line! That is cutting it a little too close for me!!Jason learned a valuable lesson too, just because your chip is "on your body" doesn't mean it will get scanned at the start and finish. He stashed his in his short's key pocket because of the rush we were in and ran the race, turns out, no "official" time was recorded. So, to all you race runners out there, take time to tie your chip to your shoe laces. We had a fun race but training in the Delta doesn't exactly prepare you for the Oxford hills.

Once again, our #1 fans are always there to cheer us on!! I do have to take a moment to dote on my son who ran his first ever race!! Grayton ran the 1 mile fun run and did very well!! He ran the whole race without stopping!! Uh-oh, before long he'll be outrunning us!!
