PLAY TIME AND WORK TIME

Dylann and Marshall

Boy, It has been an extremely hot "welcome to the summer" weekend.  Temperatures in the 90's and we have not even hit the month of June .  Dylann and Marshall were so glad to be playing in their sprinkler on Saturday.  What a nice way to cool off.  I have a feeling that they will be spending a lot of time enjoying this along with their kiddy pool.  Who knows, with temperatures like this they may just find me cooling of in the sprinkler on these very hot days of summer.

Erin and Tom

These two participated and completed their first half marathon on Sunday morning in Alexandria, VA.  They really wanted to run this race and finish under 2 hours.  They did with a time of 1 hour 58 minutes. 

Great job!!!

I'm so glad that the race was early on Sunday morning .  I'm sure that is something that is always planned as early in the AM as possible when it is a cool as it can be.   Matt was in a golf tournament on Saturday and their tee time was 1:00 PM.  They were lucky to be done before the thunder storms  hit the course, but they did have to deal with the heat.

PICTURE TIME

 Just a few pictures of the kids that were on my camera card.

These two pictures are of Sydney looking like she is ready for Spring in this bright pink dress.

Pappy and Marshall

When Marshall is tired he often spends time sitting on Pappy's lap while they watch TV before his nap time.  One of the cutest stories Pappy told me is that while they are sitting there Marshall will  often turn around and  tell Pappy he loves him.  Ron said he tells him that a number of times during the day.  Cute!!! 

 I may have to get him to sit on my lap so I hear that a few times a day too.

 Dylann - Sweet little Dee.
 I'm not sure what she was up to in the first picture, but she's  is finally looking at me in the second picture.  She is not like Tayler and Sydney.  They are really into posing for pictures.  Not Dee.  She is so busy doing things, that she does not really like to stop just so I can take her picture unless she is playing princess.  Then that is all about taking pictures..

 This week has been spirit week at Tayler's school.  The children dressed for the  beach one day, wore green and white on a  day  and today was crazy sock day.  Although Sydney has not gone to elementary  school yet, she is dressed in her crazy socks too.

SYDENY'S GRADUATION

As luck would have my camera batteries died just as Sydney's graduation was to begin.  I did get a few pictures at home and just before the service was to begin.  Hopefully her Mommy will be able to send me a few of her pictures that she took.

 Always Silly Syd.

Big sister - Tayler

Love this picture of our three beautiful girls.

Mommy has her eyes shut, but I love this pic of Tayler.

Tayler is happy to see her sister graduate.



WHO'S IN THE TREE

 If you look closely you will see a beautiful little girl in this tree.

Sydney and Tayler both love this little tree in their backyard since they both are able to climb it.  I do have two pictures of Tayler in the tree too, but they are on my cell phone and I have not  figure out how to send them to my email.  Hopefully I will figure it out soon and I will add them to this post.

Sydney hanging out in the tree.

FARM DAY AT SYNDEY'S SCHOOL

 Tayler tries her hand at milking a cow as Mommy and Sydney watch.

 Cameron, Tayler and Makenzie standing in front of a real cow. 

 Tom also tried milking the cow too.

Sydney seems to be loving her ride on the horse as Mommy walks along with her.

Little Miss Tayler takes her ride on the pony.

KIDS HAVING FUN

 Spring has sprung and the kids are enjoying it.  Here are a few pictures that Ryann took over the weekend,

It is hard to believe but the weather has been so nice and warn that Dylann  and Marshall are in their pool already.

Tayler and Sydney told me that they have been swimming in their pool too.

 Ryann told the kids when she was done with work on Saturday they would go outside and play in their kiddy pool.  Dylann was set.   She was ready by 8:30 in the morning.  Mommy still had 7 dogs to groom before they could swim.

 Marshall loves to swing.

 More pool time.

Marshall was a great help to his Mommy and Daddy.

He transported flowers to them in his little tractor and wagon.

THE RODEO

Marshall and  Dylann recently enjoyed an evening at the rodeo.  They looked little cowboys and an adorable little cowgirl.  The did participate in one  events where they rode on their stick horses.  They could also ride on a sheep, which is pretty much like riding the bucking bronco only on a smaller versions.  Needless to say neither were interested in that.  Can't say that I blame then. 

Marshall was so serious as he watched and held on to Daddy's hand.

A wave hello from Dylann

Marshall in the cow stall.  He's a good looking cowboy.

Hanging out together.

Another year, Another rodeo.
