Party Animals

Ruby's 2nd birthday party was this weekend! We are partyin' like crazy! :) Lots and lots of fun. Jake asked me yesterday .. "whose birthday is next?" haha! I asked him what kind of party HE wants for his upcoming birthday .. he said "chocolate" LOL! I think he thought I was talking about a cake ?? Hilarious kid.

Papa, Mimi, and Shae-Shae came over Thursday night to play with Jake while I did homework. They bought Jake a little life-jacket... he's ready for the lake now :) 

So Cute...

Hello big boy and big boy UNDIES! He's been doing soooo good potty training. Still have a ways to go... but we are getting there.. faster than I thought, really. So I'm very excited! :) I despiiiiiiiiise buying diapers!

Party time.... 

Checkin' out Ruby's new wheels.... 

and taking it for a ride...

telling secrets... 

this is late at night.. the two party animals still up... Ruby's hair had us laughing... she had a good party ;) 

Night- night hugs :) 

This is my last real stressful week of homework. So glad. Next week I have a final and then I'll just have one class to focus on the rest of the summer. WHEW! I was hoping to get to drive down to my dad's camp site this week but I doubt we get to... :( Some good news though - I found out I got some grants and a scholarship (that I worked hard on) ... so I'm very excited about having the rest of my school paid for! Such a relief! Thank you Lord! :) I keep telling myself I will be so thankful to have this done and accomplished! I am really liking my Leadership classes too. Glad I switched my degree!

Random: I am super ready for the 4th of July and blackberry pies! :)~

Hope everyone has a great week!

Geez

I can't believe I left out date night and Father's Day in my last post. What kind of wife am I!? Lol I didn't even take pics on either day! :( Friday night Josh scheduled us massages and a fun night out. We tried out Fort Smith's newest joint "AJ's Oyster House" ... DELISH! Y'all gotta try it! I can't wait to go back! After dinner we went to Papa's our old time hang out :) had so much fun kicked back visiting with friends. 

So.. poor Josh on Fathers Day... I didn't let him relax... I was so busy cramming in last minute homework that was due Sunday that he was busy doing stuff around the house and tending to Jake. We left around lunch time to meet my dad at Chili's and ended up having a flat tire. Poor Josh is all I can say haha... But Jake made him some special cards and told him "happy Mother's Day dad" LOLOLOL! So hilarious. He still had Mother's Day on his mind I suppose :) 

I know I'm leaving more out!? But I can't think straight these days... Off to bed! Have a great week peeps! 

*Suuuummerrrrrrr Time*

I have not been keeping up with my blog lately because I've been SO BUSY. So over the past few weeks, I've learned a new computer system at work (STRESSFUL), started summer classes (even more STRESSFUL), and still trying to fit in some summer fun. I haven't been this stressed out in a long time... made myself sick! HA! I've calmed down a little though ;) 

So Angela and I went to see Luke Bryan on "Thunder on the Mountain" - it was a BLAST. I was a little worried from the experience I had at the Zac Brown concert - AWFUL! Buuut this way 110% better and just all around a  great time. We camped and ate and had a fun "mom's night out". 

After the concert - a little sweaty from all the dacing :) 

Got to hang out with sweet Amanda C :) 

June has been pretty awesome so far with the weather the way it is. It's rained and kept the creek flowing and it's been warm enough to play in it. So that's what we have done.... 

Sweet boy. Sweet smile

He's always got those hands on his hips :) I don't know where he gets it, ha!

This past weekend was Brock and Colten's birthday party - it was so much fun! Great job Angela ;) 

Jake watching Brock open presents..

The guys lol

How do you like Jake's pink ruffle floaties?! :)

I told Jake to send a picture to daddy - who is out of town again - and this is the face he gives him. Such a ham. 

This coming weekend is Ruby's birthday party.. we can't wait to go! Can't believe she is turning 2!!!! Time is flying! Love these kiddos!
