~1st Day Of School~

First Day Of School was on August 10th, Taylor's Birthday. The kids was ready to go back to school. Taylor is in 5th grade this year, Ms.Evans is her homeroom teacher. It breaks my heart to know this is her last year in Elementary school. This year is a little different for Kassie and Hayden. They are repeating 1st grade(and they hate it and let me know all the time they wanted to go to 2nd with there friends). I wanted to try something different this year and have them put in the same room and so far it seems to be working out great:) Mrs.Cates is such a wonderful teacher, Kassie and Hayden just love her.

Taylor's 10th Birthday!

Once again this year we celebrated Taylor's Birthday at the Rockwood Pool. We always have such a good time and what kid doesn't like to swim. I can't believe that my little girl is 10, they grow up way to fast. To my sweet little girl who means the world to me, Happy Birthday and I love you!

What are BFF for, to smash a cupcake in your face for you birthday! Got to love your best friends:)

Cades Cove

We went to Cade's Cove back in August with my sister and her family and my Dad. We all had a really good time, especially the kids. I drove Aubrey's truck so when we got their everyone just piled in the back. It's be a long time since I have been there and I had forgot how long it took to drive through. After driving for several hours we went to the picnic area and cooked out. I enjoy spending time with my family and can't wait to do it again.

Fourth of July

We had so much fun the weekend of the fourth. We had a cookout at Robbie and Kim's with lots of family and friends. Everyone seemed to have had a good time, we played volleyball, ping pong, horse shoes and flag football. The kids had a blast, this year we rented a 15' water slide, even the adults had fun on it. This year we decided to stay the night at Robbie and Kim's, so we set up a tent for the kids to sleep in and the adults was sleeping inside. After we watched the fireworks it started poring down rain, so needless to say everyone stayed inside. On Sunday we got up and cleaned, cleaned, cleaned and then took down the water slide about the time it started raining again. It was definitely a fun weekend and we can't wait till next year. Thanks Robbie and Kim for having us, we always have so much fun:)
