Y'all look at this picture. This child is a hot mess. He has chalk, dirt, chocolate, and popsicle all over him. But look at that smile! I got this shirt at the start of summer and it has been permanently stained. There is a soda stain on the back as well. Messy is happy!
My bestie had her first baby at 37 and isn't her baby girl just gorgeous! Her name is Phoebe and the name matches her wild personality. They are such amazing parents and Phoebe has them wrapped around her sweet little finger.
Here are a couple of photos from 4th of July. I wanted to get a photo of him before he got all dirty but as soon as he got outside he rolled around in the dirt. I just wish this child would learn how to swing himself. Pushing is getting old.
These two cousins have spent every single day together this summer. There are huge fights but also some sweet moments. Here is one of these. They sat together in this wagon and shared a root beer.
Y'all bless this child's soul. We shot a few fireworks in the backyard. Basically my sister's husband shot them off and we sat in the bed of the truck and watched. We did let the kids do a sparkler. My kid put the hot end to his lip. He never cried. He just said "I hurt my lip". This is it the next day. It is looking better each day. He learned a life lesson so I guess it all worked out.
This weekend we are doing a family vacation to Hot Springs with my sister's family. We are renting a house close to a nice lake. We have plans to visit a museum, a water park, a go cart park, an amusement park, and also do some boating. It will be lots of chaos and mess so basically the kiddos will have the best time and all the adults will be needing a vacation after the vacation.
