Darren and I are helping Phil and Lola take care of the Eastman cemetery...we have a squirrel problem. This is Lola getting ready to take care of the problems! I love this picture with Kennedy and her grandma in deep conversation. We are so blessed to have such an awesome families that we are close to.

It may seem very hard to believe...but yesterday I may have lost my temper over something very small and may have overreacted a bit. Kennedy got the brunt end of it and was grounded for the day, no friends, no TV, no music no nothing except talking and being with me all day. After I grounded her I wanted so bad to take it back but I knew I had to stick to my guns, once I said it had to be followed through. We had a great day together for a while, read, colored, played and then I wanted to be done with the grounding and it was only noon...I wanted to somewhat redeem myself today (since yesterday was not really all her fault, wrong place wrong time) so I took her and Hayden to the new playground in Randolph, bought them lunch and ice cream at Gators, babysay 3 dolls and a stuffed dog and let them play for 3 hours. The simple things brought such laughter and fun. I am so glad today was great and yesterday was over.


We decorated my neices bikes and also Kennedy's for the 4th of July parade in Woodruff. It was such a simple thing but they had so much fun!
