lately on instagram

these two tag teamed me with illness for a few weeks.
nothing major, just needed some tlc and a few trips to the doctor.

this boy does not nap.
three time in one week was his way of healing that not so little body.

saturday night trip to lowe's followed with some car building.

first time facing forward.

pretty fabric all cut and ready to sew.

between a trip to the doctor and needing to do 50 other things,
i spray painted a tray white.
it did help organize my sewing/laundry room,
which was on the list.

she loves books and climbing.

and can now get into the markers.

right after mopping!

loving on her sleeping brother.

we have cousins here from tennessee,
and have enjoyed playing on the lake with them.

some of that pretty fabric all sewed up.

new flag for the fence.

papa g with his girls.

the boys at cosmic bowling.

us mama's did a little bowling of our own.

a think we have a future road rager!

mud run

sometimes i don't know what i get myself into.
and this time i dragged my friends into it with me.
thanks for joining me samantha and eric!!

tatum kinda has a 'ha, mama is doing that?' look!

have i ever mentioned my fear of heights?

this obstacle certainly tested that fear....
i think you can see it in my face.




eric encouraged us the whole way.
leading us to the finish line with a superman slide.


and samthana learned a vauable lesson:
you need to have your soles attached while running through sugar sand!

i have no doubt that she worked twice as hard getting through it with her built in shovels.

it was so much fun.
can't wait to do it again.
any takers?!?!

my dear sweet cousin graduated from high school last weekend.
she asked if i could take some senior portraits.
we had so much fun the first go round,
we headed out to a field for another!

she's beautiful both inside and out.
kelsie, you've made our family proud!

but i think she rocks it!
