Caylea's Eleventh

Wow!  Eleven I can hardly believe I have been a mom that long!  I guess my big girl won't let me forget!  She had a great birthday slumber party with her closest friends.  They had a blast and it was really a lot of fun!  These are some really good friends!  I find myself thankful for my kids friends all the time!  

Rae made the beautiful delicious cupcakes! 

Hope and Hiedi brought Caylea the coolest gift she loves it and sleeps with it every night! 

Gosh I may just be biased but my girl is beautiful! 

I love all of these precious girls!

Hope and Hiedi did the girls nails and the girls just absolutely loved that!

The girls got the hamster ball to roll under their bridges!  Also I think Tiger is under there :)

A few games!

Then to get their dolls and watch a movie!

Time to do hair ;)  They even did mine!  No pictures of that though.

Letting the hamster roll between them ha! ha!

Anthony made them french toast for breakfast!  Delicious!

It didn't stop there we also had a family party the next day at the church! 

Caylea is so blessed I hope that she always remembers how much she is loved and how many people love her precious heart!!

He! He! I got her the trick candles lol I loved it!

I think it's easy to say that Caylea had a fantastic birthday!  Somehow she also ended up with two new pets. . .hamsters. . .I guess they aren't the worst!

Visiting Louisiana

At the beginning of July we visited Louisiana for several days!  It was so great to see our friends!  You know you have a true friend when you move away and maybe you don't talk at often as maybe you could but when you are with those friends it is like no time has passed at all!  I love our Lousiana friends!  I am so thankful they were our family when we were away from our family in Oklahoma!

Caden on Ethan's shoulders at the pool!  We had a fun Monday morning at the pool with Marcie and Aiden and Kelly and Ethan! 

Then in the afternoon Jenny and Aubrey brought us lunch which was delicious Newk's! Oh how I love Newk's maybe there will be one in Oklahoma sometime! 

It isn't only the adults these kids play and talk like they were never apart!

We took this picture Sunday night after church! Love does not even explain how I feel about these ladies!

Marcie looks great she has lost (well I don't know for sure) but weight. . .I seemed to have found some since we moved here.  I hope by the time we go back I will be feeling as great as she looks!  I have started walking the last few nights . . .I already eat pretty healthy! I am thinking I need to give up diet Soda. . .that should be fun!

Shawna, Marcie, Kelly and Me! 

After church we went to dinner with a group from church it was so great to visit for a few more hours!  I am never ready to leave when it's time but we eventually made our way out of the restaurant! 

Jenny and the girl! Love this lady!  

These two little friends are so cute! Carolina went home with Jenny and Aubrey and stayed the night! I was so happy that she could do this! What great memories for her!

Jenny text me and said when they were on their way home Carolina looked at Aubrey and moved her hair out of her face and said You haven't changed a bit since I last saw you. . .and Aubrey said but I do have more freckles.  How cute and sweet is that?  I love this little friendship!

VBS Day 1

I think day 1 of VBS was a complete success.  It looked like everyone had a great time!  Just thought I would share a few pictures of my children that I took.  Amazingly I do not get near as many pictures of my kiddos as I use to.  I am hoping this year I will focus and get the pictures for the slide show for church and get some great one's of my babies enjoying VBS also.  This is Caylea's last year! Next year she will be helping!

Sara is helping me with pictures this year!  I am so thankful and she took this one!  I love it!!

Spending the 4th being Thankful
