Finally- on the Lake!

We have had record rain around here. The lake is over 16 feet above normal levels. But on June 30th- we finally got to take our boat out, the first time all summer! With all the rain, our lake has been too high to put in. But finally it was our day! Sunshine, swimming, wake boarding, friends and smooth water. 

Summer Volleyball

Both my girls are playing Summer Volleyball. Afton did a 6 week program through Integrity, her team ended up winning the entire tournament. They were the Middle School Summer League Champs!

Back to Cinnamon Shores- in 2019

It's been a few years since the girls went on a beach trip. They have been on the lake a ton, but not to an actual beach. So we planned a trip to our favorite Texas beach! We got on the road right after VBS ended on Thursday and drove down to Port Aransas. Took the ferry to the beautiful Cinnamon Shore. Afton brought her friend McCall. We were all excited to spend a few days relaxing on the Texas coast! 

Kicking Off Summer 2019

Greetings from the magestic Mountasia! A friendly round of putt-putt lead to a lot of laughs. Afton provided most of today’s comic relief. Think we’re almost ready to join the pro tour.

Memorial Day 2019 and Last Day of School

Memorial Day fun with friends - we hosted a family swim party! 

Fourth of July - Parade and fun!

Fourth of July 2019 ! Started the day at our neighborhood parade. Such a cute patriotic tradition with family & friends. Then we swam, grilled out, and put on our little fireworks show at home. Grateful for a fun day in the greatest country! 

Wrapping up school & Stay-Cation at Gaylord with Family

Best day of the year- Field Day!  Maisy enjoyed a day of fun in the sun. And Afton did too (but no pics of that part because #middleschool ). I did get a photo through the grate on the balcony of her getting the Wolf Award for Language Arts. Go Conner Girls! 

May Showers 2019

May showers brought... a cabbage that Maisy loves (and so does IHOP) . 

Mother's Day 2019

My girls made me feel so loved on Mother's Day Weekend. We started with "Muffins with Moms" at HES.

Spring Flowers, Fashion, and School Adventures

Maisy and some of her WCKids friends got together for Humanity Missions - they planted flowers in front of Founders Chapel after church one Sunday. Maisy has really enjoyed going to Sunday School and helping with mission projects once a month after church this year. Love to see her spreading joy by beautifying our church. 

Easter 2019

We kicked off the Easter weekend with volunteering for NCL. Even though Maisy is not an official "NCL Ticktocker" until 6th grade- she is always happy to come along. We had a super fun day at The Delaney Vineyards Easter Egg Hunt. Afton and I worked the popcorn booth for over four hours and met so many nice people from the Colleyville Lions Club. Maisy was thrilled to find her friend Lucy was there too! (And in the end we almost adopted a rescue dog named ‘Jon Snow’.) Thankful for this beautiful day with my girls.
