Over the Past Week

Finally updating the blog again. Here are some pictures over past week.

Last Friday night we went to Ashlyn's school carnival. She had lots of fun playing games and seeing her friends. Ronnie and I were disappointed we didn't win the 47 in. flat screen TV in the raffle.

Bean bag toss


She did really good with this. I thought it looked hard.


Breckyn wanted out of her stroller.


We went to the zoo on Saturday, a spontaneous thing after we learned Ashlyn's game was cancelled.


















On Sunday the girls played outside in the water. Breckyn didn't like Ashlyn spraying her with hose that much.





My mom took some pictures when she was here a week ago. She came to watch Ashlyn's softball game.








We were experimenting with the sunflower umbrella.

Last Weekend

On Saturday we had another t-ball game and Ashlyn played really well. She hit a ball all the way to the fence! We were so proud of her :) On Sunday we celebrated Mother's Day by eating lunch with my mom and then relaxing at home. We accomplished one thing that day...shaving Lola. We wanted her hair to be short so she wouldn't shed so much. Ronnie and I both worked on that when we got back from Joplin. I really enjoyed the day by spending time with my mom, husband and girls!

First hit.


Breckyn hung out in my chair most of the game.


Coach getting Ashlyn ready to hit the second time.


This was her big hit!


Running to first base. Notice the man in the background looking towards the outfield? She whacked it out there!


Luckily, Breckyn cooperated for me most of the game.


Good game, good game. Slapping hands with other team.


Ashlyn after game was over, probably excited to get her snack and drink.


Bought some clippers to shave our pug, Lola.



Ashlyn in her swimming suit; she was washing my car.



Look at all of that hair!

Warm Spring Days

Here's some pictures of the girls over this past week. It's been a pretty good week except for Breckyn and I being sick, but we are finally getting over whatever we had. Since the weather's been nice, we've been spending lots of time outside on the deck. The deck seems to be a safe place for Breckyn to walk around (we have a baby gate blocking the stairs) since our yard is mostly sloped.

I came home from work the other day and found the girls dancing to music while Breckyn was wearing Ashlyn's vest and wearing daddy's sunglasses. Interesting combo and as you can see, Breckyn put the glasses on herself.



Breckyn enjoys playing with Ashlyn's kitchen set she's outgrown.




Breckyn's first popsicle. We gave it to her outside and let her have at it!




Popsicle face.



Ashlyn and her fuzzy worm. She loves finding those things crawling all over our deck.


Breckyn's first bite of her popsicle. She spit it out on the deck.


Daddy teaching Ashlyn how to shoot her pellet gun she got from Grandpa Steve and Mimi. Ashlyn doesn't use it much now, however daddy enjoys aiming at squirrels that try to eat our bird seed.
