In Search of the Lost Sea

          Well if you haven't figured it out, this family has been on the road for the past few days. Leaving home base we spent two nights and three days on the road, enjoying being a little family of tourists. We "found" the Lost Sea, made fish faces at the Tennessee Aquarium, and swam until our hands and feet were all shriveled up in Birmingham. Next stop Louisiana!

Trip to the Library

      

Since I finally got my driver's license, I took the girls to get library cards. We had a great time looking through the stacks and finding several books to bring home. They have been enjoying tennis camp this week, and in two weeks, we will be back home!!!!! 

Last Splash

Final meet today. She improved her freestyle time to 29.53, but she was pretty tired after all four races. Love this pic of the family. Notice that baby girl thought she was going to a rodeo and wore her cowgirl hat. Big girl is trying to eat her candy as fast as she can, and Little Man is drinking coffee! Now that's what I call a fun Saturday morning. Half of the family will be off to the swim banquet later today and the other half will be taking an afternoon nap. I am hoping I will be in the nap group! Have a great weekend!

31.63

     Her freestyle time. She

 won her heat in her first "real" meet. It was also the first time she was off the block without going feet first. But she is like her mama; if it is a competition, then game on!

  Yesterday we spent a quiet fourth grilling and watching fireworks from our backyard. With the downturn in the economy, our town decided not to have fireworks. Sure I was a little disappointed, but then again I did not have to pack up 3 kids, hike a mile from a parking lot, and wait about three hours for a fireworks show. The girls caught fireflies in jammies and bare feet while hubby and I laughed at the two of them from the porch. It was wonderful. Hope all of you have a great weekend!

"We are SO going back!"

       The girls have confirmed that our day yesterday at the amusement park has been one of the best days ever. They have already started diligently completing school work and chores f so we can go back later this month. Even little man, now down to only one prescription, had a great time. Small crowd, great rides, food, frozen lemonade, and a whole lot of fun. I can't wait to go back and introduce the kids to funnel cakes!!!!! 

Birthday shout out!

Happy Birthday Clayboy!  Hope you had a GREAT day.  The girls send hugs and kisses and can't wait to see you soon.

Rally Tigers!

The rally paint is on. The girls are convinced this will help the Tigers tonight. I really hope so. Geaux Tigers!
