Football season is here again

It is hard to believe it is that time again, but as you can see, we are ready for kickoff.

Fun at the new water park

Gramsby was in town, and the girls and I were tired of being inside with all the rain. The pool water is a frigid 75 degrees, so we decided to try out the new water park everyone has been raving about. It is worthy of the praise it is getting. Farrow Kate loved it as much or more than Emma Claire. They were completely entertained and I didn't have to worry about Farrow Kate backing into the pool as she loves to do. I would HIGHLY recommend it.

Entertainment in Belden, MS

This is what Jim does to entertain the girls when I need some time. He is very good at it and they love it.

More Summer Fun

Emma Cliare got a bike and learned how to ride (with training wheels)
Farrow Kate celebrated her first birthday with a family swim party.
The girls and I went to the beach with my family.

Farrow Kate wasn't crazy about the sand.

Summer Memories

I thought I would start with some things we have done this summer and then we can pick up from there.

Jim and I went camping, hiking, canoeing. Lots of fun (no kids this time).

Built a swimming pool which Emma Claire tried out first in the nuede.

Got some ducks. Had some heartache with that but now have three healthy adult ones.

Went camping with Judith (Jim's sister) and Bill and their girls

Emma Claire took swim lessons with Mrs. Hayley. She worked "miracles" and now she is swimming like a fish.
