Doing

On one of the hottest days this summer, I had gone to help out at Mom's.  I think I might have been cutting grass but who knows what that day's chore might have been.  At any rate, before I left, I went to the house to check in and see what she was doing.  And there she was...

Yes, she was painting sealer on the concrete driveway and carport.  On one of the hottest days of summer.  My seventy-six-year-old mother.

I asked her if she wanted me to finish it up for her and she paused, panting, and said, "No.  I've done this much all by myself, I'm going to finish it."

And she dipped her paint roller in the sealer and began rolling again.

And me, what did I do?

I just stepped back and said, "You go, girl!"

Happy Birthday!

We love you lots!

Happy Birthday, Luci!

Happy second birthday!

Glad you are Tremendous Two!

First Day of School

Today is the first full day of school for Lillie and Lydia.  Bridgette instructed them to stand beside the tree to get the traditional first day of school photo before leaving home.  We got an adorable photo texted to us with first day of school emblazoned across the middle.  Then, we got the photo below showing what was just outside that first picture... 

Somebody else joined them for the photo shoot!

Happy Birthday, Levi!

Happy Second Birthday, Levi!

Glad you are Terrific Two!

Workin' it...

On a hot day, our cheeks seem to get a little red and the stray hairs tend to become unruly curls...

Yet, when the camera points in her direction...

She knows how to turn on the charm and share that cuteness factor...

Ah, little Luci, you are a stinkin' mess!

Happy Birthday, Lillie!

We hope your days are filled with fun times and sweet memories!

Happy entry into the double digits!
