Mommy's Little Helper ...

This particular day she was "helping" with the toilet paper ... :)

and here with the bowls ...

and she loves to help me water the flowers ...

And loves to help daddy with the water sprinkler ... She always ends up in just her diaper because she is soaked ...

She can climb just about anywhere ... She keeps Mommy on her toes ....

Playing With Owen At The Park

Thanks For The Help Nena !

I just wanted to say thanks to Nena ! She came and stayed with us for the weekend and was a big help. Mommy had a garage sale and couldn't of done it without her help ! It was such a fast and busy weekend Mommy didn't get any pictures ! Nena I apologize for that ! You will just have to come back again soon so I can take some !

Putting A Smile On Grandma's Face

Ellie and Owen had a good time playing in the pool at Nena and PawPaw's ! And I think Grandma Summers had just as much watching them !

Ellie was waving and blowing kisses to Grandma through the window ...

I think this picture is funny ... Ellie is actually trying to lay her head back in the water ... she has been working on this for a while ...

Ellie loves to spray everybody with the water hose ...This particular afternoon poor Owen was her target ...

Thanks for filling up the pool PawPaw ...

Clifton Carnival

The kids loved the big slide ... Ellie ... of course being the little dare devil she is ... had no fear ... only cried when daddy took to long to get his feet in the sack .... haha

Thanks for helping us with the kids Miss Mattie ! It was great seeing you !!

Daddy and Ellie on the carousel ...

This is a picture of Tate and Emmy waving to Ellie as she was going around and around on the carousel ...

Clifton Rodeo !

Ellie first Rodeo !! We all had a great time !

First I want to say Happy Fathers Day to all the dads ! And I want to say that I am so thankful for the dad that Todd is to Ellie ... I think Ellie's favorite time of day is when her daddy walks in the front door after work ... she squeals and runs to him in excitement ! I am so grateful for the relationship they have ! We love you !

I also want to say how grateful Ellie and I are to have my daddy ... (aka) Boots ... I was born blessed to have this man as my daddy ! And now my daughter is part of that same blessing ! It is true ... Once a daddy's girl ... Always a daddy's girl .... and proud of it ! I love you daddy !!

Clifton Livestock Show

Ellie had a great time seeing all the animals ... lambs, goats, steers, heifers, chickens, and pigs ...

Shelby Crockett got her goat out so the kids could pet it ... poor little goat was named "fajita" ... haha ... Thank you Shelby !

Two Silly Girls In Swings ...
