Random Summer of 2011.....

The summer was definitely action packed & loads of fun. I am just figuring out that I know what we did, however, I don't know when we did it all. Ha Ha...I'll blame it on baby brain and sleep deprivation! I know we saw lots of family and friends & went on as many outings as I could handle. Ashlyn was able to catch the fireworks on the 4th. Sissy & Curt came to visit & we had a cook out. Ashlyn went to Bible School & really enjoyed it. She also took a class at The Little Gym, which was really fun because she got to wear her new tap shoes! We went to story time at the library, the aquarium, made play dates at the park & pool, and I managed to fit a few naps in the mix.


Anna's first visit to Great-grandma Hazel Collette's! Daddy was trying to keep up with everything & work....

Ash & Rick at the neighborhood pool.



Sleeping while everyone else enjoys the pool...two weeks old!



Aunt Glenda with Anna



Brooke, Cara, Ashlyn, and Anna hanging out. Aunt Glenda kept Ash some after Anna was born & her girls came to stay with us some, too. It was a great break for me. Brooke plays well with Ash & Cara does a great job holding Anna!



Cara, Ashlyn, and Brooke at the water park. We went with Nana & Papa to a Fire Department party. It was fun to watch Ash on the bigger slides this year!



Grayson and Lauren came to visit for the summer. We were able to spend a few days together & it worked out that we were able to take the boat out for an afternoon. It was totally fun & I realized how much I miss these guys!



The family...minus Tess and Greg. We always get together the day in between mine & Dad's birthdays.


Lauren & Anna




Ashlyn & Grayson



Grayson & Ash with one of the two huge stuffed animals that he won for her at Blackbeard's Cove.



Rick and Ash hanging out on the boat. They were talking about Ash trying the tube by herself.



Ashlyn riding behind the boat all by herself! She was awesome & kept wanting to go faster!



Rick took Ashlyn to get her first bike. She did very well & they went on neighborhood rides everyday when he came home from work.



Ashlyn and her friend, Brynlee, at the neighborhood water park.



Ashlyn, Rick, and I at a Riverdogs game. It was Military Appreciation Night. Fun times with some of Rick's coworkers & the only game we were able to see this year.
