Commitments





Sometimes it pays off to make your kids commit to something they dont want to do... Keith and I decided to put all four of them on the neighborhood swim team this summer. They missed the first two weeks of practice and then just jumped right in, literally.... Each one of them has brought home a first place ribbon almost every week. That is the best motivation possible... They come out of their event and ask how they did. They are having so much fun... and I have had fun meeting other moms in the neighborhood as well. I thought it would be great to post some pics of our future olympians!! I am not biased am I?? Of course not : )

Its been a while

Yes, my sister is really giving me a hard time. It has been a really crazy month. The kids and I traveled to Fairfax, VA and had a great time visiting with all of our old friends that we didnt get to say goodbye to when we moved. It had been such a worldwind of a move... so we spent a world wind of a week just hanging out, having lunch, dinner, and even breakfast with some of our favorite people. We had every night schedulead with seeing someone.. It was just great.... We even got to see Mimi and Papa. I know they probably felt like they were just our place to sleep. I do have to admit that it would have been much more difficult had we not been able to stay with them. The kids got to spend one day each with them. Just to get some quality One on one time.... the kids loved it...They dont get a whole lot of one one time with very many people. On sat i drove the kids back to Atlanta, met up with Keith on the perimeter and traded cars. I then drove another 2 hours to meet my sister in Bham so we could go to the Miss Alabama Pageant. My cousin Rachel was a contestant in it. She didnt win, but she and the many other beautiful women did a really great job. Their accomplishments at such a young age are absolutely phenomenal. it was a lot of fun to go to.
Anyway summer is here and so is swim team. We have another meet this
Thursday. I will be updating my post then.
see you soon
