Saturday, our special friend ~ Whitney Sue (Whooty) ~ turned 6!
She had a swimming party and the kids had a BLAST!
(Whooty, Jax, MD, Sidney Clair) ~ Southern for sure...lots of double names! ;)
A couple of older girls were there and introduced our children to the fine art of "chicken fighting"Notice Mary Dalton is NOT in this picture ~ nope, not my girl ~ wayyyyy to rough for her!
As soon as the party was over, we drove to the coast. Dalton had a bow fishing trip planned and with our summer QUICKLY disappearing, I wanted to be sure I got to go down at least once!
Dalton's mother is an AMAZING decorator! Seriously, this house looks like it should be in Southern Accents or Veranda! The colors are beautiful and she can put things together in a way I would NEVER think of doing! I told her she needs to come "re-do" my house! ha!
This is mine and Dalton's room ~ I hated to get in the bed...it was so pretty!!!
She took the laundry room and turned it into a bunk room for Mary Dalton & Jackson!
They LOVE their little nook at the top! We store their clothes and toys in the baskets. She even squeezed in a potty and a sink in the closet ~ she is good! :)
The opposite wall ~ Love the pics of them! :)
On the coffee table is the NEVER ending game of Monopoly we played! The kids were REALLY good! It's such good math practice that I did not mind playing, but I did "add" to the rules after 4 hours (over 3 days) of playing...if the rent was $2 (yes, some rent was $2!!!) ~ you add a zero...this helped us MOVE some money a weeee bit quicker!!!
Mary Dalton won!!! She was SOOO proud!
The other "fun" was the new tub! It has a "bubble maker" button like no other! It also has lights which = HOURS of entertainment!!!
You can't really tell, but I took this picture of MDD looking down at her...I have NEVER seen that many bubbles!!!!
We had a great time even if it was a quick trip, but I was glad to be home to see Dalton! We have a pretty low key week ~ I am doing some tutoring and also am going to start working on my lesson plans for my second session of summer school. I have this week and next week and then it's back to school pretty much full time for me! Can't believe the summer is flying by!!!
