Let's Go Shopping!

The other day we ran into Kohl's and Little Miss Ellie discovered the jewelry department!

She was in heaven...

Feeling Crafty

I have been feeling very Martha Stewarty lately...I am not really sure what has gotton into me...

Maybe all this HOT weather is making me CRAZY!

Here are a few of my projects I have done lately!

My 5 dollar cork board...

Add a little paint and stencil and...

Tada!!!

My "Redone" magnetic board!

Ellie's handprints...finally!

And last...My watermelon door hanger!

Yay for Coupons!

I have started/ restarted "trying" to coupon again...

I went to CVS the other day and got all this.....

for JUST 25 dollars!!!

I was SO excited!!!

Spent 25.60....saved 37.98...YAY!!

Splash Pad at the Zoo

We have been going to the Zoo early in the morning becasue it has been SO hot to go any other time and Ellie-Bellie loves it!

Well this trip to the Zoo we went and she played in the Splash Pad and she had SO much FUN!

She ran around like a CRAZY person for over a hour...just chasing the water!

Crazy!

We are just CRAZY about this sweet little girl....

She is so sweet and so, so funny.

Her sweet little smile just melts my heart.

We love you Ellie-Bellie

Birthday Party

Saturday we went to celebrate Miss Karlee's very first birthday!

Ellie had a fun time running around like a crazy child.

Something about a big, open room makes her extra rambunctious.......

Well that and the fact that there was a "sweet" table and it was the very first thing Ellie hit up when she walked in the door :)

Here she is after eating a handful of M&M's...

Ellie and her cousin Jenna had a grand time playing with the pool balls

Then Ellie decided to get in Karlee's toys and show her how to use them...

But Karlee did not want lessons on how to use her swing...haha!

So she tried to get Ellie out!

Happy Birthday sweet Karleee!

We all scream for Ice Cream!

I know I have mentioned before how much Miss Ellie loves Ice Cream.

So she was just tickled the other day when we went to Cold Stone and she got her very own spoon!

She loved every single bite!

Sweet Girl!

My sweet little angel....

We love you SO very much!

What's the Problem?

The other day I walked into the bathroom ready to give Ellie a bath and I fould this.

She had climbed in ALL by herself and was sitting in the water with all her clothes and shoes on reading a book.

When I said " Ellie what have you done?!?"

She looked up at me like " What's the problem mom?"

VBS

Last week Ellie went to her first VBS!

Even though there was not alot for her to do...she had a blast!

She loved the program and dancing with all the big kids!

I can't wait till she is old enough to go the whole week!

Zoo Visit

Last week we went to the zoo for a little while in the morning.

I have been wanting to take Ellie because she has really been loving animals lately but it has been so HOT around here lately. So we got up and got there right when they opened and it was really nice! I don't think we have been since Ellie has really started walking good...so she has so much fun exploring!

Here she is on the train.

She was very serious and focused on what was going on around her...

Watching the monkeys...

These were one of her favs!

She loved that she could get off the trail and dig in the dirt with her fingers!

Chasing the bobcat...

Worn out from walking ALL over the zoo!

Beach Fun!

We spent a long week at Navarre Beach with my Mom's side of the family...there were 25 people in all! It was crazy but it was lots of fun!

We had fun playing in the crystal clear water and watching fish and dolphins...

Celebrating Birthdays....

Celebrating the 4th and watching the firworks "POP!"....

And spending lot and lots of time with DADDY!

We LOVE this trip every single year....

I know little Miss Ellie had so much fun playing with all her cousins.

We had 6 children under the age of 5...talk about CRAZY!

It it such a fun time to be able to spend time and visit with our family that we love so much.

It is so fun to get together with everbody and have absolutely nothing you HAVE to do for a whole entire week! We were so sad when the week finally ended and we all had to pack up and head home. We are already looking foward to next year~!

Happy 4 th on the 6 th!
