Reagan's First Vacation and More!

It has been awhile since I have written to you all. Tim had to use the camera for work and I think it is more interesting with photos than just my thoughts. This past weekend, we were able to go to Tim's parent's cabin in Pinetop. It was wonderful and on average about 75 degrees. They have a back porch that looks out onto the 5th tee box of the golf course and I spent as much time as I could out there. The last time I left Phoenix was in February to go to California. Before that, our last trip was to Pinetop and was in January. I know, I don't get out much, but it is hard to with little ones. So, thankfully, God and my husband knew I needed a vacation and off to the mountains we went. The girls did a great job on the way there. It is a little over three hours from our house to the cabin. We arrived and the picture taking began. We spent a lot of time just walking up and down the fairway. Gracie loved the grass and the cool breeze. It rained and even hailed...in August. We went to Greer for lunch one day. It was beautiful. We sat outside on the porch. It was a lot cooler than even Pinetop. We moved inside and within 15 minutes it started pouring rain and hailing! It came on so fast, I don't think we would have made it inside if we waited much longer. Overall, it was a wonderful weekend to enjoy family and the outdoors. Thank you Tim for taking us to Pinetop and thank you Ashley for staying home with the dogs. Here are some pictures of the weekend. There are more to come, but this should satisfy you for awhile. This is only the beginning! Lots of pictures. Like I said, I don't get out much so when I did the cameras were rolling. Enjoy!

AAAHHHHHH! Vacation at last!

Gracie loved going outside and not sweating to death.



I didn't know I was in this picture obviously. I thought it was just Gracie!



Gracie found a pink golf ball and was very excited about it. She carried it around and played with it for hours!



Reagan fell asleep in the chair waiting for us to pack up to go home. So sweet.

Oh Sarah, We are blessed to have a vacation home away from home. Your girls, my nieces are absolutely beautiful. They look exactly like you.(And a bit of Timmy). Thanks for sharing your photos. Looks like you had a great time in the cool weather. When you need a babysitter,c all me, Im just around the corner. I dont want to miss out on all the fun stuff with the girls... love you all

A Place to Remember

I wanted to have a place that I could remember all the things the girls do as they are growing up. They change so fast and life is just a little to busy to always make time to write it all down. I hope that one day, they will be able to read all the good times we shared and remember some of their own.
