Have A Safe And Happy Fourth...

My six words for today are these: MiMi is celebrating the fourth here!

It's time to take a few days off and celebrate...

No matter where you and your family are...

No matter how you choose to celebrate...

I hope you have a safe and happy fourth!

God Bless America...

Let freedom ring!

Two Men And A Little Lady...

I love this photograph of Madison holding hands with her daddy,and her "E-pa". I snapped it while I was actually walking behind them during our recent trip to Fernandina Beach, Fla.

Madison has all the men in her life wrapped around her fingers--and I think she knows it! As for her mother and me...we're the "party poopers" who make her follow the rules!

It's a tough job--being a "party pooper"--a" keeper of the rules"-- but somebody's gotta' do it...I've been a "party pooper" all my life...if you don't believe it, just ask my children! LOL

Yikes! There's A Snake In These Boots...

No, there really isn't a snake in those boots, but Cade sure does love these yellow rain boots!

I thought he was the most precious sight, the day he walked in wearing them--and it wasn't even raining!

He may have a little trouble walking in those black canvas hightops, but he has no trouble running in these yellow rain boots!

I say, bring on the rain! I'll be Cade could have a stomping good time in a few large mud puddles...

Basketball Anyone???

" Well, daddy, I'll give it my best shot, but I'm not sure how good I can play ball in these new shoes..."
