Parades, fairs and rodeos, oh my!

Yep! It's that time of year again and I LOVE it! I don't have much to say other than we had a great time! I'm sure you'll be able to tell by all the pictures...

{If you want to look at the pictures bigger, just click on them}

Parade

Ethan, Kennedi and Dylan

Brayden, boy what a trooper...this is after two messy diapers and counting...

{Yes, he was a sick boy!}

This is my boyfriend

{Jk, he was just smokin' hot! Which is why I didn't get a picture of his face, I was too busy staring!}

Fair

{We had the time of our lives!}

Sorry, I had the wrong settings on my camera and forgot to tell my sister to change them.

{They're sure still cute pictures though!}

Oh Bugaboo...If you're asking if he was asleep in this picture, I don't know. I was laughing so hard! It was a semi-hot day but not too bad really. I actually think he's just REALLY enjoying his lemonade!

This is the ONE good picture I got at the rodeo. All the others didn't turn out, sorry!

{Thanks KIDDOS for such a fun weekend!!}

Mamma said there'll be days like this...

We all have bad days. I admit it, I have them more than not. {See post below} But, I'm so grateful for the good days I do have. During those bad times I always tell myself things could be worse.

You MUST check out this girl, NieNie's (Stephanie) blog. WOW! What an inspiration she is to me and many others. Her and her husband were in a private plane crash one year ago where they both survived. The majority of her body was burned and has had to go through a lot to recover. Sadly, she'll never fully recover. Everytime I think about her story I seriously cry.

NieNie...if by some miraculous chance you read this post, I hope you know that you are seriously AMAZING!
{I sure do look up to you}

In the mean time, I want everyone else to know that it's people like NieNie that keep my spirits high and gives me that can-do attitude. Can we all try to be more positive like her?

In my opinion...

I ran into this book and thought about buying it. I decided against it, but now I'm having second thoughts.

I SERIOUSLY hate dating.

Where have all the good men gone lately? There is a weak selection of good, available men out there! I’ll say it again: THERE IS A WEAK SELECTION.

I'm really not asking for much when it comes to dating, why does it have to be so difficult?

Photo Shoot

I decided to take my kids to the park yesterday to try and shoot some pictures of them. Ha, funny! A LOT easier said than done. Kennedi didn't want to cooperate at all and all Brayden wanted to do was crawl all over the grass and pick up the garbage. I managed to get a few decent ones, nothing professional I know, but they'll do for now.

Wondering where a picture of the two of them together is? Keep wondering, it was IMPOSSIBLE!!!
