Independence Day 2012!

           July 4th started out with the excitement of matching outfits & flags for the girls!


                                        Another hot day....spent the morning at Aunt Julie's pool.
                                             Lindsey says, "I ready! Swim me mommy!"

     Hailey has transitioned from fearing the water to Miss Independent with the float....

          And has now conquered her greatest fear of going under!  We are so proud of her!

                                         And as for Lindsey....well, she's fearLESS!


                                   Later, we headed to Chris' parents for dinner and fireworks



which turned into...going home instead of fighting a crowd, not knowing if Lindsey would enjoy the fireworks.  Plus, the fireworks did not start until 9:30...on a week night. 
So glad we decided to go home and semi-enjoy the multi-family firework display in our neighborhood, since my hair almost got pulled out!  Poor Lindsey did not like the sound of them, but enjoyed the pretty colors.  After sitting at the end of our driveway for 20mins...we ventured indoors to watch the fireworks display in the T.V. and enjoy all the patriotic music...




 And I love that both of my girls are unable to sit still the minute they hear music...they're both natural dancers!

Hailey's 6th Birthday 'Gymnastics' Party!

A little bit of sunshine and new endeavors

The weather is warmer and the girls love our backyard paradise. I'm so grateful the both enjoy imagination play, hand-me-down swing sets and space to roam. Hailey has been enjoying her gymnastic class, tricks at home and trying to give me gray hairs....                                                     These girls love their trampoline!                                      Some of their made up games...surprise tag from the great down under...                    Always time for a picture while sitting and playing on the trampoline.                                        They got the biggest kick out of the static ele...

Finalized! ~ Hailey's Ballerina Bedroom Redo

I am totally singing the  HALLELUJAH CHORUS !  After months of contemplating Hailey's bedroom redo and realizing after I started that this was harder than expected with tons of DIY projects...it's DONE!!   Well, at least for now.  Possible that I will continue with cosmetic procedures later, but for now...here it is... Just a walk down memory lane... even though it's totally embarrassing with overflow of clutter in which I strongly dislike... Oh my...look at the bedskirt, lol!  Felt a tad bit sorry for Lindsey who thought she belonged with her favorite stuffed animals in the hammock.... But anyway, after painting her walls pink and hand painting sillhouettes of ballerinas...it was on!  I have been so greatful that God placed the perfect people in my path to finish Hailey's room with one of the Dance mom's, Jenna Pratt who exchanged a ballerina comforter set plus pillows and curtains for a video baby monitor...absolutely perfect! ...
