An afternoon at our house

Snack time. Gavin gets in the chair all by himself now. Well, let me add that this boy is very coordinated. He climbs up and down stairs, climbs the ladder on the swing-set. Swing on his belly by himself... He climbs on TOP of the tables, you name it LOL! I told him to say cheese, and this is his cheesy smile :) How sweet he is. Princess Sandy & Clint was just chillin with his gameboy :)

Sandy's Dollhouse people

How sweet is this? Sandy ADORES her little people, dollhouse people, go girls, polly pockets, well you get the idea. On this day she begged for me to take a picture of her little guys that he lined all up. Notice the mom of the family has 1 arm :) Thanks to Rusty the dog :)

And this is what Sandy & Gavin did

Summer is coming to an end; although it really doesn't feel like it. Gavin is getting more and more into everything. I am sad that Clint is back in school, yet at the same time hoping I can get into a more structured routine. I hope to be able to get back into ebay and get back into full swing on the bow making.

This was a rainy, dreary day. Sandy was thrilled to be able to put on her new raincoat and boots and play in the rain. And, well, Gavin wasn't gonna miss out on that either :) They had fun and as you can see adore the newest addition Blue

Beach in Biloxi

We decided to take an impromptu trip to the coast the weekend of July 4th. The fishing rodeo was going on and we decided to go check that out. We ended up viewing the fish and getting out of there pretty quick cause it was so hot and the kids were bored.

Next stop... the beach. The kids thoroughly enjoyed this! Gavin LOVED it.... Sand, water... he was in hog heaven! We did the typical things, ya know... burying each other in the sand... jumping the waves... etc etc.

We decided to stay the night and were able to get a room at the Sea Bee Base in GulfPort. It was really nice. Had a kitchenette and all. I think it was like $24 bucks for the night so that was awesome!

I loved the cheap prices at the BX too! We had to stock up on some toothbrushes, etc since this was so unplanned... Just killed me to have to pay for toothbrushes, deoderants, etc. since I have been getting them for free with my CVS deals.... Oh well, I did find cool pink camo and desert camo designs for the kids... Gotta love that!

The kids were pooped by the end of the day and quickly crashed in the room after we ate.... The next morning Daddy got some McD's Pancakes... which are our favorites!!! yummmmmmmmy. Sandy did not want her picture taken :)

Sandy has a ponytail :) Well, barely! Isn't she pretty!
