We went to Lousiania Lagniappe one night and it was so much fun... and so good!
And totally renovated since the last time I had been there.

















Big Richie, Little Richie and Amy











































Beau and Tal playing 'stinky feet' at Lousiania Lagniappe. One of Beau's favorite games.... Phewww.... Weeee.... he thinks it is hilarious!

Goodbye to The Trotters!
Soooo sad to see them go. They will be moving to Fairhope, Alabama on Thursday.
They have known for 2 years and the time has finally come for them to leave.
You will be missed!!!
























McLean, Lisa and Patten Trotter


















Mary Bratton with Mary McLean "May May" Trotter


























Me and Lisa

























Beau running up to Tal when he got there! This boy LOVES his daddy! And Daddy LOVES his boy!

Colin Hutchinson's little boy Warren is Beau's age and he was there and from behind I could hardly tell them apart.
They were both all over the place!

I wanted to post some of the pages from Mary Bratton's ALL ABOUT ME book that she got today
Some of the answers surprised me and some blessed me beyond words.

























Tal recorded the Jetson's one time a few months ago and she loved it.. that is what she meant by The JET.
She NEVER eats spaghetti... she hates the sauce. I wish I knew that she liked to help me clean my room!

Last Day in Ms. Jennifer's Class!

This is Mary Bratton's class when I walked in to tell them that we were about to go outside.


























This is a picture of them when i told them that there was a snowcone machine waiting for them.
Thank you Stacy Seago!!!! She was TOTALLY responsible for providing the machine for the kids!
Notice that Will Bailey ( big blonde boy) isn't even in this picture anymore... he was out the door! so funny!

Here is Beth Powell crushing up the ice starting to make the snowcones.
Stacy went WAY out of her way to rent this snowcone machine for our classes. Isn't that sooooo sweet! She said don't even worry about donations or everyone chipping in to pay for it. She and David just did it to be sweet! The Seagos are precious people!!!!!!!


















Mary Grace getting a little drink of water. I swear... i think this child couldn't be any cuter and then look at this!


























Beau and Mary Grace had fun playing on the big kids playground at school

Here is Mary Bratton and her friends enjoying their snowcones.
they said they made cupholders with the rocks!





















Beau came to join Mary Bratton and her friends


















Check out Beau's white and grey seersucker shorts that are RED with red syrup all down his legs.

















Megan, Mary Bratton and Anna Claire.
I will be so sad that these 2 sweet girls will not be in her class next year! Mary Bratton made some really sweet friends this year in K4.

Today is Mary Bratton's last day of k4 at Pinelake Christian School.
I wanted to take picture of her last day of school to compare it with her first day and see how much she has grown this year. She definitley looks more confident on her last day.

Mary Bratton had her first lemonad sale on Saturday.
She was so nervous Friday night that she wanted to practice.
She had pink lemonade and sugar free kool-aid. Tal thought we were breaking all codes of lemonade stands by having sugar free kool-aid but it was a big seller :) She made $9.00

She said that with her money that she wants to help the whales. She said that they sometimes get hit by boats and sometimes can't find their mommies. She must be watching the Discovery Channel with Tal.

We had a fun girls night out! We went to eat at Osaka and then went to see the cutest movie EVER.
We saw Made of Honor. You have to go see it... it was adorable. We were the only people in the whole theater so we got to cut up and laugh as much as we wanted. so much fun!





















Me and Christie Abercrombie

Another Dog Show

Mary Bratton held another dog show today. All new tricks!
She was in the back for a while with Delta and she told me that when i heard the horn that the show was starting.
Beau and I went in the back and got ready for the show.


















Dog through the hula hoop trick.


















Dog walk around the chair trick.
After this trick she made an annoucement ( with her High School Musical microphone)
She said that anyone that came to the show with babies could take them in the den so that they could watch TV.



















Dog under the umbrella trick.

He did it! I got my kiss!
To most mommy's ... this isn't a big deal -
but to me this makes me happier than anything!!!!!!

















Today i was standing in line at a store and I looked down and Mary Bratton was standing there with puckered lips wanting to give me a kiss ( my sweet girl always does that - so precious) I bent down and gave her a kiss and out of nowhere... Beau leans over and gives me a kiss on the lips. I was standing there in front of two strangers at Material Girls saying "he's never done that.... oh my gosh, Mary Bratton did you see that." The people could have cared less.... they had no idea what a milestone it was! I called Tal as soon as I got in the car to tell him.
When we get home... I was trying to get him to do it again to show Tal.
This makes me so happy!!!! Thank you Beau for my sweet kisses! It means SO much to me!
