The Popular Post :)


I noticed a few people who have blogs that I follow, have a 'Bubble Blowing' picture...add me to the list. It must have been a common thought over the weekend because I know I was thinking that my bubble blowing pictures of Halie would be cute on my blog!

Halie LOVES blowing bubbles. Daddy brought some home for her one day, and it's a funny and heartwarming sight, to see a big, tall man, blowing bubbles with his own wand, with his little girl. Of course I get barked at when I try to take pictures of him partaking in the event. He wouldn't want anyone to know that he has a heart for crying out loud!

The Play House!

Halie has been asking for something to play with outside for awhile now. Since we can't find a swing set that is up to my husband's (quality) standards, we opted to build a sturdy playhouse that will be fun for both of our girls.

Ryan and his dad started it a couple weeks ago, and it's really coming along nicely. It's all framed in. We're going to build some wooden, shudder like windows and a two-part door. We haven't decided yet on regular tar roofing or metal. My husband likes to build things that last 'forever' so he is really putting some thought into this...not like the girls care. It will be here for grand-kids some day I suppose.

We've moved Halie's kitchen, bikes and balls out there and we plan on spending a lot of time playing 'house' this summer. There's a nice, covered porch that I can sit on with a book while the girls make me 'lunch' and bring me 'lemonade'. Next year, Ryan's going to weld some poles together for a nice swing set. Things are coming along nicely.

The Girls

We did family pictures this past weekend, but none of the family turned out. We'll have to redo those next weekend, but here is one of the girls and I. I love my Girls.
