The kids enjoyed one last swim earlier this month. I did not even put a toe in - it was way too cold for me.
I love that they still have sleepovers! I believe this was the night that Ben kicked Sophie practically off the bed. Come to think of it, this may have been the last time they had one... maybe she'll forget about it soon. ;)
Y'all know I have to post some of my feathered babies! The rooster has had some run-ins with me and Rod, so we'll see how long he stays around.
Sophie had a stay-and-play afternoon at her school and they did face painting.
Here's Ben with morning hair and all! He told me his teacher just had a birthday and he wanted to make her a card. I thought it was cute to see him put a lot of time and effort into it. He LOVES his teachers and can't wait to go to school every day. Sophie is the same. I'm really thankful for that. I had wonderful teachers growing up, but wasn't ever too psyched about going to school like they are!
Mumford & Sons concert (in a parking lot-weird) in New Orleans. I'm a little excited! It was a great night & really nice to get away with Rod, if just for a few hours.
We love Shaggy's in Biloxi and went there one Sunday afternoon. Yummy food, pretty view.
That's my girl! Football day at her school.
This lovely sight awaited me when I went out to open the chicken coop. I of course freaked out and called everyone I could think of to see if it was anything poisonous, then I whacked at it a few times with a very dull hoe and probably succeeded in only giving the thing a headache. Ahhh, the fun things you encounter when raising chickens.
Sophie & her friend/neighbor/classmate do homework together sometimes. They get out the white board, pointer, the whole 9 yards and I just hope that enthusiasm carries over into high school.
