August Memories

Here are just a few shots from August...I can't believe it is over already. Time is flying by! Jacob has really become interested in our hibiscus (sp?) plant. He loves to look at the blooms.

Here's a shot of the kids playing. They love to get in the bed and pretend to be sleeping, at least that's what Jacob likes to do, and little Maggie just follows him around and does what he does. : )

We took a trip to Alabama recently for my dad's birthday. Maggie was quite the Grandaddy's girl. I think he read Llama Llama Red Pajama about 20 times (and so did aunt Lauren).

Mom and Maggie on the front porch...

Here's my Granny Murphree (dad's mom) with the kids.

Maggie's first banjo lesson.

Grandaddy with all the grandkids on his birthday.

Here's a shot of the family (almost all of us) getting ready to chomp on some coconut cake.

The kids are also enjoying our large bathtub. They put their toys in there and play and play!

Kitchen transformation

These pictures show the before and after of our recent kitchen improvements. The most recent home improvement involved tiling the backsplash in the kitchen this past weekend. What a difference it made in the look and feel of the kitchen. I should brag on Brent more often...he is becoming quite the home improver.

New Fence!

The improvements we're making to our house continue, but the biggest so far on the exterior of the house was our new fence. I've posted some pictures below...

Following are some random shots of the kids...eating breakfast this morning.

Here's Maggie wearing her goggles in the bathtub.

Sticker time!!

A few random shots from our recent trip to the lake with Chris, Amy and Wesley...
