Summertime, Summertime!

Its been a great (but hot!) Summer here in Texas. We have been spending a lot of free time with family. The kids have enjoyed playing with their cousins. We were introduced to our newest nephew Camden (on Brian's side) recently which was great(picture of the kids with the little blondie baby).
Maddie just finished a cheerleading camp complete with a Pep Rally and all. She loved it! She also is taking swimming lessons and has learned to swim this summer. We are so proud of her. She starts Kindergarten September 1st (can't believe it). Her and Noelle are getting along great- she is a very sweet big sister and we imagine she will be a wonderful mommy herself one day.
Noelle is learning like crazy, she gets into everything, is taking her diaper off, and is oh so much fun! She has a really sweet personality and is very affectionate, she loves to hug and kiss. We won't talk about her temper, but I will tell you we are very scared! =) She mimics everything we say and do and follows Maddie around everywhere! She just moved from an infant class at her daycare to the "Toddler Club" where she will start having different classes (music, art, phonics, math), she will sleep on a mat, and sit at a table for lunch/snacks. Fun times.

July 4th 2006




Thank you Lord for this country, for our freedom, the protections we have, and all the blessings. Please bring revival to this land. Maddie and her cousin Jase had a great time at the Red, White, and Blue festival at Grammy and Poppy's church.


This 4th of July has a richer meaning this year since it is Noelle's first 4th of July. Thank you Lord that you sent our sweet daughter Noelle to us, who is now a citizen of this great country. We took both girls to see some fireworks at the Southlake Town Center and they had a great time. Noelle was pointing and saying, "WOW". It was too cute! We love our sweet girls so much!
