Hello again.

Whew, it's been awhile. Unfortunately this is what our life has felt like lately. Too much travel and too many unwanted emotions.

So speaking of emotions, here is a nice little compilation of the many faces of Meri. It's tough being two, just look.

One more....

I keep coming back to this one. Yes, I know her eyes are closed but can't you just feel her joy? Doesn't it make you want to be four again and out playing in the water with your best doggie at the height of summer?

Slip and slide

We bought the girls a slip and slide. Very cool.... the shark mouth opens and closes. dnuh dnuh dnuh.............(that's my jaws music) Evie really wasn't too interested in the spraying part. At least the horses got to enjoy the boat at the end of the slide.However, Lella LOVED it. I was a little concerned she was going to break something but she was fine. She slid down, ran back up and tried to eat the spray.

Were was Meri? In her neigh of course!
This is it for awhile. The girls and I are headed up to IL for a quick trip.

Flowers!

Camping

We took the girls camping this weekend. After talking about it countless times and never having it happen, we just did it spur of the moment. We mainly went to see Uncle Wes and Aunt Ali but regardless of the reason we're sooo glad we went. They had a blast and it was so nice to get away and just relax and enjoy them. The favorite part of the trip? Flashlights of course! But all the leaves and rocks made for good toys too, Evie made "cookies" and Meri "washed" the rocks. Good times!

Meredith's turn

Remember this? (click on it)
What can I say? There is obviously something about feet in this family.

For Uncle Wes

Okay, so it's just old school pacman but it's a start right? It's official, the corruption has started. This is Evie's first time to play a video game, I'm guessing leapster is not far behind.
