First Dance Recital

Darby Kate had her first dance recital! My parents kept Maggie and Turner after Memorial Day weekend so I could come back and work and then come back the next weekend and watch Darby Kate. I would not have missed it for anything. I was so very proud of her --- she was not shy at all. She got on stage and danced her heart out. I wonder where she got it from???? Maggie and Turner did great watching them. It was good that Darby was on stage first because it was so hot in that auditorium! After her dance we went to Trevor's and ate pizza. Great job Darby Kate!!! We were so proud of you!

Maggie would love to be a ballerina!

Best friends!

Darby was showing me her dance moves. and Maggie was doing them also.

The chase is on! Jorgia is such a little mother to Nurner (as she calls him). Love that little girl!

Pizza for dinner.

Memorial Day

Memorial Day weekend we were in Hot Springs at Babe and Poppy's Lake house. Every year we have a group of friends over to watch the fireworks and eat dinner together. I guess its a new tradition. This year since Trevor and Jodi sold their Lake House they stayed with us there in the Loft. It was so fun to be together and I really enjoyed getting to spend lots of time with my nieces. I got lots of time with Darby and Jorgia and truly enjoyed it. Jorgia has started calling Turner "Nurner". It is just precious. We went out on the lake and I got to tube with the Maggie and Darby. Then we went swimming and both girls held on to me for about 1 hour in the water while Trevor chased us around the boat being the "monster". It was lots of fun! We saw the fireworks and the Ramsey and Jennings crew came to watch and have dinner too. It is always great fun we we get together. I guess its like old times - we always got together and played when we were little. Monday we got the kiddos dressed alike and tried to take pictures. We really did get some great ones. It was a great weekend. Turner helping Babe get ready for company.

My Little Slugger

I signed Maggie up for T-Ball this year just to try it out and see if she liked it. Her friend Jackson was going to be on the same team so we thought it would be fun. It was 3 weeks of practice and 2 weeks of games. They would go through different stations to practice hitting, catching, throwing, and running the bases. Well --- after the 2nd week she said "I don't want to go back". I think it was because it was just practice and not playing. I told her that we started it and so we had to finish it this year but we didn't have to play again. So we did. Learning how to throw the ball.

This picture pretty much sums it up. Not a real big fan of T-ball this year.
