Summer Fun At Granny's House

We just back from a wonderful week with our family in Fayetteville. Everyone just picked up where we left off the last time we were together and we spent every last minute we could enjoying summer activities. We could have stayed longer but we really missed Jeffrey. I'll let the pictures tell our story:






Mom had a great idea of getting a slip-n-slide for the huge hill on the side of her house! It was so much fun and yes I know this from personal experience (and so does Tony)!


I love these pictures of Maddie playing underneath a Weeping Willow tree. She would just run around and let the branches tickle her and laugh from the bottom of her belly.





Time for an ice cream break....I love how Maddie just fits right in with her older cousins.



One night we were running around catching fireflies and we stumbled upon this huge bullfrog. Tyler just had to keep him b/c he wanted to bring him home to show his Daddy. Thankfully I was able to talk him into letting him go after a day.


The boys made Abbie do all of the frog handling (yes we know frogs carry diseases but what could we do)? Notice the boys faces... they seem to say, "better you than me"! We all have a feeling Abbie will be doing a lot of the dirty work over the next few years.



I love those sweet puckered lips!




Granny bought the kids a snow cone machine and we ate about a billion snowcones! Maddie liked hers the best without the flavor, just plain ole' shaved ice was all she wanted. I need to get me one of those things.



"Happy Birthday to Granny" (but this is your last year to be 29)!

This picture is hilarious to probably only Tyler's parents and grandparents b/c we both know how he likes to take everything and I mean everything with him when he leaves. Well, here he is pushing Granny's piano out the front door!
