Summer Activites

We have had so much rain this summer, we had to find some things to do inside. Gianna did a bead heart that you melt with the iron. 

 We made slime with what we had in the house, but it didn't work at all! It was sticking to our hands and not like slime at all. 
Hudson picked out silly string and they lured Josh outside to spray him 


 One Sunday after church, we rode out to the camp to check on their feeders and cameras. 
 They had some beautiful butterflies on the steps






 We picked blackberries 

 They were eating them as they picked, so we didn't have many to bring home.

Hudson set up this course for Gianna to practice riding her back

Josh and Mario took the kids to chuck e cheese one Sunday afternoon 

Josh showed me how to cut grass for the first time. It was quite an ordeal! I was crooked and all over the place. It is harder than it looks, so I'll just let him keep on doing it for now. 



We went to the splash park one day with friends

We took the kids to Cabela's on a Saturday and they had a bow game for the kids to play


Saw a movie and went to the mall 





It felt like summer went by fast. It doesn't seem like we did a lot. They hung out with their cousins a good bit, had play dates and sleepovers. I think we had good quality time with them.

She did a great job! The ballet and pointe dances were so powerful and beautiful this year! I always get teary when I watch and this year was no different.  I volunteered on Sunday for the last showcase I was with a class next to Jules and got to watch some of her dances from back stage.  Gianna and Jules were both in this showcase, so my parents came to watch on Sunday A long weekend for the big girls, but they love doing it

He got a 98 on the driving portion.  We celebrated Josh's 45th birthday at his parent's house. His mom made lasagna.  The beans were an inside joke  I made him Granny Lois' lemon pound cake  We went to lunch for Jamie and Leilynn's birthdays at Building 5 I gave Jamie a kitchen towel with Granny's pound cake recipe. She loves that cake and I have been wanting to make it for her. She loved it and cried. 

February 2025

The girls had dress rehearsal for dance. I went on the Thursday class on the 6th. We got to see a preview of the dances.  Hudson had his first driving session on February 10th. He has to do 8 hours of driving with 2 hours being at night. I waited in the parking lot until he left. We did pretty good waiting while he was gone, but we kept checking Life 360. He said it was fine, I thought he was a little nervous. Afterward, he said it was no big deal. I guess we shouldn't be surprised, since he has been driving off road vehicles since he was young.  We spent Valentine's Day at home and made pizzas.  My birthday was on a Friday and I had work. Josh surprised me with an orchid for my desk.  I had lunch with some of my family at Albashas. Dillon was in town for something else and was able to come to lunch.  We celebrated our 19th anniversary by going to The little Big Cup in Arnaudville.  The food was really good. I had the crab cake and eggplant stack and Josh h...
