The Rain

I took these pictures the day before "the rain" came. The kids had a blast splashing in the water. Please look at Perrin "drinking " the gross rain water. Perrin reminds me everyday how different boys are girls are!

School

Well, Mary Paxton started school yesterday. She is going to St. James and LOVES it! Her teacher is Ms. Shannon and they have done neat stuff ! She is going in the morning until 11:30. Everyone at school is so nice and the kids are wonderful. It is great because i get to spend one on one with each of the kids. I will post pics later.

Weekend

I went to Stem's big sale yesterday and found these Tervis dragonfly tumblers for 50% off! I just LOVE them! They are wonderful!

For everyone that has been to my house, our playroom is always a mess. Kate introduced me to these great shelves and storage bins! It makes such a difference in the playroom. I picked 3 colors. The pink is for Mary Paxton's toys, blue is for Perrin's toys and the green is for toys they share. It is working out so far.

We have had a busy weekend so far. Yesterday we had a pool party and Mary Paxton enjoyed swimming. This is Will's busy season with harvest, so we have not seen him much. Last night I had Bunco. The food was great and i had a wonderful time playing and catching up with everyone. Although i NEVER win, i always have a great time. Oh- and Becky made the best dessert i have ever eaten! It was white chocolate blueberry bread pudding with whiskey sauce! Delicious....

Hope everyone has a safe and relaxing Labor Day!

Mary Paxton's birthday!

Mary Paxton's Pastel

An older lady that comes to Greenville created Mary Paxton's pastel. It is an early christmas present from Will's parents. We are so thrilled and thought she did a wonderful job! Now, the hard part will be picking out the matte and frame. Mary Paxton's dress was a dress my grandmother made me when i was little!

making cupcakes (and eating them too!)
