Headed to Martha's Vineyard!

We are headed up to Boston tomorrow to visit Ken's grandparents (actually in New Hampshire). We'll then head to Martha's Vineyard to see Uncle Casey and Papa Kim...should be a great time!

We can't wait for Lobster Rolls!!!

Watermelon Popsicles

Here is a quick, easy, and fun activity to do with your kids (or make these for yourself)!

A great little snack or treat on a warm afternoon!

Watermelon Popsicles :

2 Cups Watermelon

1 Cup Apple Juice

Pour both into a blender, mix, pour into popsicle molds, freeze, and enjoy!

These are so EASY & fun - my daughter just loved helping me make them (and she also loved posing for the "yummmm" picture after tasting a sample directly from the pitcher b/f pouring & freezing them).

For more fun tips, to Works For Me Wednesday over at Rocks in My Dryer.

HAVE FUN!

Quote of the Day

I came across this today....and I love it. A perfect reminder of why we are all here!

"To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!"-Emerson

Cowboy Boots

It has been a while since I wrote anything! Things have been busy around here. We've been trying to stay out of the 100+ degree Texas weather - and stay cool! We made a quick trip down to Austin last week to visit Sarah and see her new house. What an adorable house! I loved it so much...every detail. We spent the day hopping around Austin to lots of fun spots - and Campbell & Charlie loved spending the day with their honorary Auntie Sarah. We even went to Toy Joy where Sarah let Campbell (her Goddaughter) pick out something. She picked a Hello Kitty purse with lip gloss - surprise, surprise! We took Charlie to S.Congress and bought him some Red cowboy boots. An instant favorite of the little guy!

Here are a few pictures of Campbell & Charlie in their cowboy boots (notice the animals on the table in the background - Campbell set this photo shoot backdrop up). They LOVE their boots. They also picked up these cowboy hats at the Mesquite Rodeo a few weeks ago with John & George. Seems to be a theme around here! Yeeeehawww!

And the winner is....

Congratulations, Molly!
