Memorial Day Weekend & McNabb Family Reunion.....

The Thursday before Memorial Day weekend, was our last day of school, YAY. It was so nice to have my summer break start with a 3 day weekend for Matt! As part of our weekend, we took the girls down to visit Grandpa and Grandma at their 'farm'...here are some pics from that very fun afternoon....

Here are the girls meeting Jellybean...the new baby minature that thinks she is a dog....she follows Gale around everywhere! It's so cute. THe girls kept calling her a dog....she's actually SMALLER than both of our dogs...so funny, and cute!
Grandma and Grandpa had a baby pool....super exciting! Also, super exciting was that their cousin's Amelia and Jonah were visiting....later on Aunt Cathy, Uncle Roy, Bryar, and Luke came to visit too!




After visiting with Grandpa and Grandma, we stopped by Nana and Papa's house on the way home for some home made ice cream and to see some of Nana's cousins that were visiting for the weekend....here are some super cute pics of the girls playing around in their backyard.

The following weekend, was the McNabb family reunion....and my birthday.....so, we have a TON of pics...they are however out of order...these first ones are after we got home from the reunion and had taken our naps...thus the different outfits. We had pizza and ice cream on the back patio to celebrate Mommy's birthday!
Here's Miss Olivia...

Jumpin' on the couch....something we're NOT supposed to be doing. :(
MIss Sydney.....she loves these little individual bubble makers...thank god we found these so that I didn't have to be THE bubble machine all summer long!

Little Miss Sydney....had a GREAT TIME at the reunion...ran around, ate a ton, played it up, and as always was a MAJOR flirt!

Playing with her new bed for her 'baby'. Too bad I spend half my time trying to keep HER out of it! :)
Ever present in our lives these days...Woody, not to be outdone by Buzz, Jessie, and Bullseye!

May Fun....

May was a busy busy month for us! It seems like it was a slow month (probably b/c it was the last month of school, but then the next thing I knew I was officially off from school)! YAY! Summer Break/re-charge is good for all...teachers AND students! :)


For my first day off of summer break, the girls had their last day of day care with Ms. Georgine. SO, I was off to do some Mommy stuff....shopping was definately on the agenda. It was nice to just have a me day! Because it was also the Friday of Memorial Day weekend, Matt got off of work at 3, so he came home and we both went and picked up the girls for their last day of daycare. When we got home, Matt said, "Let's wash the cars!" It was hot and the girls would probably enjoy it so we were all game.

Here are the girls playing around in their new swimsuits from Grandma Carol and GrandDude. Sadly, the suits are already too small...odd b/c all of their other 18 month swimsuits fit just fine...it must just be that manufacturer. :( Makes me mad, like my parents wasted their money on them, and I hate that. :(

Miss Sydney having her afternoon snack before washing cars....
Olivia.....
When the girls FIRST got outside, they were a little apprehensive of the hose, but they soon warmed up to how fun washing cars is! THey share this in common with their GrandDude who LOVES to wash cars! :)
I'm pretty sure the rest of these pictures are self-explanatory! :) Enjoy.....





Olivia wanted to go across the street to see Mr. Jim and Ms. Donna's flowies...so we safely crossed the street and went to visit! :)
Oh oh oh...this water is fun Mama!



Sydney LOVED the bucket of water...thankfully it was too heavy for her! :)
All wrapped up and nowhere to go....apparently we were shivering!
Sydney hamming it up for the camera!
Olivia and her baby. We've been working on how to take care of babies for several reasons...one they love their baby dolls, two there is a baby at daycare, and three my best friend (whom I'm expecting to probably spend a lot of day time with this summer) is due with her baby any day....(Baby Rachel arrived on 6/7 @ 2:5 pm), and I want to make sure they know how to act around and treat babies.


Playing on our new table and chairs that I got at a garage sale down the street. Best $7 I've spent yet! :)
On Tues, 5.26. A friend of mine from my Multiple's Chat site buried her baby boy, JW who was 20 months old. In Honor of JW, everyone wore blue that day and blue bubbles and took pics of their little one to support Tiffany and her family. Here is a picture of the girls in their blue for JW.
On Saturday, May 23rd, the girls went to Cameron and Collin Davis' 2nd birthday party...they had a lot of fun playing with people THEIR size, and exploring all the new toys that Cameron and Collin and their older brother Brandon have!




Olivia giving me the look as I am taking her picture with Collin!
Olivia playing with the boy's kitchen...notice all the tape...that's to keep them from CLIMBING!

Hope All is Well,
