So I guess one of my favorite things about summer is grillin' out in the backyard with the family and just watching the kids run around and play and have fun without a care in the world. Yep, I would say that it really can't get much better than that :)
Makena wanted to take a picture of me and Carl. She cracks
me up so much because she loves to see us hug and be
"loving" with each other. I guess it makes her feel safe or something :)
Look at those yummy chicken legs!
This picture is for Carlie. Well, Carlie really took this picture.
Ever since she was little she always loved to look at the butter
before "messing" it up! This girl loves butter too....maybe even
more than Paula Deen!
We also cooked country style ribs. These were a little more
fatty than I wanted, but once you got past all of that, they were
delish!!
All of these pictures are also from Saturday :) Today we got up only to realize that we overslept!! That is not good on a Sunday morning around here. We don't ever set the alarm for Sunday mornings because we always just get up. But last night wasn't just any ordinary night. Nobody in this house slept...NOBODY! We got NO sleep until the wee hours of the morning. So at 8:30 we got up and had to skip our normal big Sunday breakfast and just had muffins :) We did manage to make it to church on time thanks to the fact that I had our clothes already out. I think I should do that every week!
Poor Makena is still not feeling the best and neither is Trey although he doesn't show it as much. We didn't go swimming today, we just hung out at the house.
Makena is already making lists for everybody of what she wants for her birthday, and the countdown has begun: 10 days from today and the princess will be 9! I remember very well the 4th of July that I was pregnant with her. I was SO ready to have her because it was SO hot and I was miserable but she was perfectly content where she was out and I was induced a mere 4 days before my due date. She has been attached to her Momma ever since :)
I know, I keep getting sidetracked...I think it's from the lack of sleep. Well, that and I'm watching Hope Floats and trying to think and type at the same time! Not going to good for me, so I think it's time to say "Good Night"!
