A Good Day

I am a big believer in a little work and a little play. The two go hand in hand. I am a go getter, thats for sure. Always have been. I basically don't sit down throughout the day, I go, go, go. If there isn't something to be done, I will find something. Now don't get me wrong, I find plenty of time to stop and smell the roses....I just like to pencil it into my planner first. Haha. Every week I have certain things I wish to get accomplished, however I also know that my kids are only young once and so I always make sure to balance my work with play. However the play is always that much sweeter cause I know my work is done. If that makes sense. Well, yesterday was all about the play.....



Well, I guess a little work for Ash cause she had to give my orphan boys haircuts. They were looking pretty ridiculous, especially Linc...don't know how much higher that little mohawk of his was going to go.


Cars thought he would practice his coloring skills on Elle belle. She sat perfectly still...the little weirdos.




Ah, this girl, she cracks me up. The minute she sees my camera she flops herself over to me and we start taking pictures. I did this one time with her a few months ago, and she has never forgot it. We love to take silly pictures together, don't we sweet girl. Love my little nieces, pretty sure I am destined for all boys and I am just fine with that. However, sure am glad I get to soak up the deliciousness of Elle and Katelynn. Love them.


After haircuts, Jen and the kids met up with me and Ash for a little water party. That started with this...


Cafe Rio..yep, I will always include pictures of food, especially when I have entitle the post "good day". Cause lets face it, good days include good food. And least for me they do. Oh yeah, and giant cokes from Maverick with 3 squirts of vanilla. Yesiree, me and the sisters are coke-ahholics.


Oh yeah, and some cupcakes...I am a sucker for cupcakes. I had to share with Carson and I was not happy about it.

Onto the swimming...



Baby Drake, just chilling in all his cuteness. Don't you just want to kiss him up. Ooh, I tell ya, I have just got a thing for that baby. I love him.






And then the other two monsters...soaking up that sun.

All kinds of fun was had.

We love water days.




Oops, there goes that Elle Belle again. What can I say the camera loves me and my best girl.

Two little beauties thats for sure, haha.

Such a fun day! Elle is such a doll baby. Swimming is the best, makes it really feel like summer! Glad you and your sissy's had such a great day together. Did you make those cupcakes? They look perfect!

I do love the new background, so perfect and summery!

It was a perfect day, though any day involving Cafe Rio and cupcakes can't help but be perfect. Love the pictures of you and Elle Bell, two little beauties that's for sure!
