Blueberry Morning

Although it appears Bracken is eating raw meat

it's actually blueberries and they were

quite delicious! Our little vampire...

A New Cousin...

Surprise! Grammie Carla and PaPa Kenny
got a new dog (had you fooled, didn't I?)
We welcome Mickey to the family.

He is super furry and super cute.

Reagan and Mickey became fast friends.

Bracken was bored by him because he

didn't want to play trucks.

 I think we wore him out...

Refrigerator Gallery

We have been hard at work in the arts and crafts

department lately... Reagan's drawings now come

with quite imaginative narration.

This is Reagan and her cat.

 Reagan walking her cat.

(note her hand and the leash off to the right)

 A lion and a dinosaur head.

The lion is wearing a band aid.

(it has not been confirmed if the dino attacked him)

 Reagan dancing with lots of sparkles and hearts!

(the girl loves drawing sparkles and hearts)

  A heart birthday cake complete with candles.

(which is fitting because we have recently started

talking about her upcoming birthday...

and she has very specific ideas about her cake)

 A lovely tropical fish from school and HER NAME!

(I love the way she does her "R"

and refuse to correct it)

 Almost coloring inside the lines...

 ARIEL!

(of course, did I even have to tell you?)

 Reagan dancing.

(she does a lot of self portraits)

 Happy Reagan.

(I think that is mommy in the corner

and I am honored to be included in her art!)

A Goofy Gal and Mullet Removal.

 Sometimes Reagan will offer a sweet smile

when I get my camera out... but for the most part

the faces I capture look like this:

 The best way to give a 1 year old a haircut?

Give him spaghetti for dinner and let him watch

Mickey Mouse Clubhouse while you do it.

 Cleaned up the back and took out that weird

baby comb over on the crown of his head...

much better (and no tears)!

A Visit with the Muellers

Here are a few shots that I wasn't able to upload last week

from our visit to Nashville, TN to see the Muellers!

Grammie gets some stories in before bed...

 Calvin, Carly and Reagan "Touch a Truck"

at an event in the park (on a very hot day!).

 Fun sprinkler time!!

 Goofy (and wet) cousins Reagan and Carly.

 Showing off her new ladybug suit!!

 Who knows what Drew and Bracken are looking at... ?

 Bracken enjoying the swing (he's the serious type).

We had a blast and can't wait to

see you all again soon!

A Twilight Dance

It was an especially bright sunset and

I caught Reagan twirling and

playing with her shadow...

 

 

 

 

 

Popsicles in the Sun

A hot summer afternoon calls for a sweet cold treat!

They give each other "cheers" :)

He usually finishes it in 3 bites. 

 This is what David would look like with blonde hair:

 If she's gonna be outside we're gonna put her to work!

A sweet pose on her swing...
and all of a sudden she has aged 5 years?!?
