Prayer request

I want to ask all my friends to keep sweet Lu in their thoughts and say a little prayer for her(and parents).  A week ago she had a UTI and now her doctor wants to follow up with a few test.  While I feel comfortable she is fine this is just to "make sure".  I really trust her doctor and so thankful she is loving and wants the best for anyone in her care. Lu is scheduled for Tuesday am-so please say a little prayer during breakfast or coffee.  Hopefully, she will be calm and comfortable while undergoing some not so fun test.  Thanks!

just so you know...

Just thought I would share this with you since most of you have little ones.

Friday Violet gave my cell phone a slam dunk in the toilet!  Needless to say I was a little upset but realized I let my guard down at the same time.  So all weekend we tried to let it "air out", still nothing.  Well, Monday morning Jason called to get me a phone and the guy was actually helpful and suggested we place the phone in a bowl of rice for about 24 hours.   Then put back together and charge for a few hours.  The rice absorbs the water and crazy enough my phone is working.  While I don't know if this will present any problems later for now I am good!  Thought that might be helpful info this summer but hope you don't need it!  

by the way Violet has lost her cell phone privileges! ha ha

Fun outside!

here are just some pics of the girls outside

Pageau visits Charlotte!

My college room-mate made a visit to Charlotte and we were lucky to see her a few times during her trip.  It has been over 10 yrs since we have been together.  We were able to also meet her husband,who is super nice! Violet really liked him!! Both girls enjoyed her little dog Zinnie.

Lazy 5 Ranch

We had a blast at the Lazy 5 Ranch this past weekend!  It is one of the "must do" if you can.  We heard about it last fall and finally picked a weekend to schedule the trip.  It was worth it.  We decided to take the wagon ride through the park instead of our vehicles.  It was a wise choice-while we were riding through a SUV got hit by a bull.  

.  

The girls and I met Lu's friend MG and her mom.  I don't know who enjoyed it more the girls or the moms!  If you come to visit we will try our best to plan this activity.  

MG, Lu and Viley

Lu has become interested in horses so she was excited when she was able to steer part of our trip.  She talked Mr.Fred's head off!  

Viley enjoyed caring the water around-she is a mess!

Ride home-two tired little ladies!

Freedom Park

Friday we enjoyed Freedom Park with Lia and her kiddos.  It is fun to have all them together and play while she and I catch up.  Although we don't see each other as much as I would like it is so wonderful to have a old friend close by!

Viley ate most of the bread!  Sorry ducks!!

Catching up...

Lu was so excited to watch Grace!And my dad is one of the coaches'-if you remember anything about him...still the same! It was fun to see him and watch Grace!

Sweet Aunt Martha found the water table for Viley and she was so fun to watch!







YES, we are in the parking garage~we had planned to go to the park after our trip.  But everyone was having too much fun so we made the best of if!  




We have had a lot going on here with the summer arriving.  A few weeks ago the girls and I made a trip to Alabama.  It was fun to spend the day with my parents on Friday.  Then that night we were able to enjoy one of Grace's games-fun to share with the girls!  McWayne on Saturday and everyone had fun!  I have lots to post to come!
