Hat Day

Sarah Beth studied the letter Hh in Kindergarten last week and they had “hat day” on Friday.  They were to make or create a hat to wear.  We had so much fun working on this project together.  Originally she wanted a hat with feathers but I sent my assistant out in Jackson looking and she came back with these cute flowers instead.  SB wanted her hat to be purple and gold (St. Al colors).  I thought the hat turned out very cute!!

Weekend Wrap Up

We have had a great weekend.  We have spent the entire weekend with family and we have enjoyed every minute of it!  Friday night we went to El Sombrero with Nana, Papaw, Kori and Brandon.  Afterwards, everyone came back to our house and the kids played and played!

Saturday the girls took a trip to Jackson.  Our first stop was lunch at Jason’s Deli.  It was delicious.  Then we went to Sam’s and one of my favorite stores…School Aids!  We headed back to Vicksburg and went to the Wooten’s house to celebrate Aunt Bettye’s birthday.  Sarah Beth and Mary Makenna had a blast looking for toads and frogs!  We enjoyed spending time with the Kelly family!

Today we went to Mass and enjoyed lunch at MeMe and Pops house.  After lunch I mentioned that we should have a family game day (what else to do on a rainy day!).  Syd and I taught everyone how to play Phase 10.  We had a great time!

Happy Birthday MeMe!

Saturday night we helped MeMe celebrate her birthday by having BBQ and cake!  Her cake was Boston Crème (yellow cake with chocolate icing).  It was very yummy!!  Pop even played “Happy Birthday” on his cello and SB helped MeMe blow out her candles.  Thanks for letting us help you celebrate MeMe!  We love you!

Good Friends and Good Times

We enjoyed a short but fun visit with The Hull’s this summer.  Shelby and Hayden are growing up so fast.  Shelby is now in high school and little Hayden is in Pre-school.  Wow how time flies!  The Holifield’s joined us that night too…Meredith is such a sweetie and she and Sophie play so well together!

Here are all of our kids minus Andrew (he was already asleep).

Sophie’s 1st Haircut

Sophie’s locks finally got long enough that she needed a trim!  It only took almost 3 years…ha!  She was very excited for her first trim and did a great job sitting in Mrs. Cindy’s chair.

Sarah Beth got her hair trimmed also.  Mrs. Cindy always puts make-up on the girls after she cuts their hair….such royal treatment!

1st Day of Kindergarten!

Sarah Beth started Kindergarten this year.  I still can’t believe that she is old enough to be in school!  I told her that she will always be my BABY!  She said that was okay.  She is loving Kindergarten and doing great.  She loves her teacher, Mrs. Phillips and everyone else at St. Francis.  Time needs to slow down!
