Adventures in Babysitting

Zachary had a great time helping me babysit my good friends little girls.. Rebeccah, Thalia, and Isabella (not pictured because she napped most the time. We played in the water, ate blueberry muffins, and watched a movie. Zachary had the most fun playing ball with Becca and pretending to be a puppy while they played house.
Sweet..Sweet..Becca


No more paparazzi mom..I am trying to eat my muffin



What a beautiful picture of our friend Thalia


Thalia, Becca, and Chris are having fun in the pool

Our Trip to St. Louis Visiting Friends

During our trip to St. Louis, we visited lots of friends we had not seen in nearly a year. I got to visit Julie and eat her amazing fruit cake. Her daughter (who used to babysit Zach) came over with her little girl Kiley. Kiley and Chris got along great. We stayed the night with my friend Lori and Zach was very excited to see his friends Matthew and Nathan. Her daughter Hannah and Chris played like they were the best of friends. Hannah would give Chris a hug every time he cried. They went swimming and played at the park for hours. Lastly, Zach got to see his other friend Eric. Those two combined love to play baseball more than any two kids I know. They pretend they are different MLB players and are experts on their stances. We had a great time and cannot wait until next summer to do it again.
Christopher loves cheeks and inched his way closer to Kiley in order to hug her.

Another Great Trip to Deanna Rose


Gotta Love the turtles!!!

We took another trip to Deanna Rose and had a great time. This time we went with my cousins Darlena and Tammy, and their children. We enjoyed feeding the goats, riding horses, and just spending time together.

Zach had a blast bottle feeding the baby goats... he kept begging me for more quarters

Zach enjoyed his time in the saddle

Chandler..aka..Bing..loved his time in the saddle also
