A New Friend!!

We had a very special visit today from some wonderful friends!!
Abigail got to meet Baby Eli, and she is SO in love with him!!
Thanks, Mrs. Becky and Mr. Todd for coming to visit us!! Come back soon!!

Abigail wasn't really sure about Daddy holding Baby Eli...

She didn't seem to mind when Momma held him, though...

Sweet sugar for a sweet new friend!!

Muzzle-Loading Time!!

After much research and preparation, we decided to try out the ol' 50 cal. this evening!
I was a little nervous, especially since neither Justin nor I had ever shot a muzzle-loader before!!
Abigail was not nervous at all--just excited!
I can see we're gonna be investing in one of those pink cap guns pretty soon...


She got to sit on Daddy's truck while we set everything up!
My beautiful little redneck princess!!

Justin went first in case of explosion or the severing of limbs or something.
Thankfully, we all still have all of our parts!!

It's so loud, Momma!!

Momma's turn!
It didn't kick nearly as bad as I thought, but that smoke'll choke ya!!

Not too bad for our first time! Guess we'll just have to practice some more!!!

Sweet Saturdays...

Today was another one of those days when Daddy had to work and it was just us girls!
Though we really miss him a lot when he's working, we do enjoy our girl time, you know!!

Miss Priss is cheesin' it up, helping Momma get organized!!

After our nap, we had a birthday party to attend!
Abigail is ready to go!!

I can't believe she actually wore the hat--I can never get her to wear anything on her head!!

Happy Birthday to Levi!!

Hot Birthday!

Well, today may well be the hottest day of the year, and NO, it's not because of all the candles on my cake!!
It was a wonderful birthday and I think I'll do it again tomorrow!!
We went to Alexandria and did a little shopping--hunting camo is on clearance at Academy--Yay!! Then we ate and shopped a little more and then took the scenic drive home!
Nothing exciting, but a fun day with my little family!

Yeah, I know. Good thing I married a fireman...

Helping Momma blow out all those candles!
I think Daddy threw some extra ones on there!

Yum!!

VBS 2010

Here she is on Day One--ready to go!!
