Lazy weekend...

Frank is out of town with his seniors at the beach...suffering for Christ!! He called last night when they got there, and he was telling me all about how awesome their condo is. He's residing in the "Mother-In-Law" apartment portion of the house. I hope he enjoys getting to sleep past 6am. He works really hard, so I'm glad that he is on this trip (Even though it is, technically, work, since it's just seniors, it should be relaxing). The boys and I are having a lazy laid back weekend. Last night we went to Chickfila and to the park. Today we've just been lounging around the house. I've been cleaning while Caden has played and Grayson just sits there...poor guy!! He really wants to get in on the action! Here's a picture of Caden with his puppies. I think he's getting his 2 year molars...he's been quite attached to the puppies the last couple of days!! He's so funny!! He's talking more and more everyday. His favorite work right now is "OK." It is his answer to almost everything. He is definitely our child in that he loves his nap. As he was finishing his lunch a little bit ago, he looked at me and said, "Night, Night??" I said, "Are you ready for a nap?" He answered, "Ok!!" So sweet!!

And then there is "Graybaby" as we often call him. Bless his sweet little laid back heart! I couldn't ask for an easier baby. Just keep him fed and dry, and he's a happy camper. Don't get me wrong, he does have his fussy moments, but he normally just wants to eat or cuddle, and I can handle both of those!!

And what do I do when I'm bored...take pictures in the mirror of course!! Isn't that what you do?? I had the camera out because my cute new strap came in the mail. You girls out there with SLRs need to get one of these cute straps. You can see a bit of it in this picture...

Here's a better picture of the strap. It came from Susie's Country Garden. She has some really cute stuff. And she has AWESOME taste in fabric (Amy Butler, Joel Dewberry...need I say more!!).

So, I'm trying to do some work with my pictures, so I downloaded the trial version of Photoshop. I'm totally LOST!! It has made me feel totally unintelligent. If you use Photoshop, please share some things that were helpful for you to figure things out!!!

School Time Fun...

Well, the end of another school year is fast approaching. And let me say just one more time...I LOVE MY JOB!!! Here are 3 of the reasons I love what I do...These girls are the best!

Here's the 5th grade choir getting ready to sing the Nat'l Anthem at the Braves game.

He's been asking to get into my cabinet all year...on field day, I let him. He stayed there for an hour. He LOVED it! So funny!

The food table for my Mother's Day Breakfast...

You be the judge...

So people keep asking me if the boys look alike. I don't think so! I think that Grayson has much more "Frank-like" features...he even has the single dimple! So here are some pics for you to compare. The first is Grayson, the second is Caden. You be the judge!!
