A Camping We will go

The weather has been so great this past few days that we decided to take the kids camping. This is the first time that we really camped and stayed the night in the tent and roughed it as you could call it. Mattison and Maddox really enjoyed staying outside and roasting marsh mellows. If you haven't ever visited daisy state park its really nice place to go, they have a program ever 2 hours are so for you to go and do. We took part in the scavenger hunt and did boys against girls, so it was me and mattison against Daddy, Maddox and Maddon. I knew i had some what of an advantage because maddox is slow as Christmas when he has to walk anywhere, and of course me and mattison won! She was thrilled that we were the winners. The also had a program about snakes of Arkansas and it was really informational for the kids to learn what snakes are bad and which ones aren't and some really neat facts about snakes that i didn't even know. But all and all we had a really great time and cant wait to go camping again. I think it really was nice to actually spend time with each other without any distractions like t.v.s, phones or computers. So here are a few pics from the weekend hope you enjoy. They have a really nice park to play at and of course the kids loved that and so did daddy he got to play as well. Maddox and Mattison didnt stop long enough for me to take many pictures of them. Is this not the cuttest smile you ever seen. Maddon loved sliding







The kids all got part of the watermelon and maddon went to town on it, he loved watermelon. Mattison and Maddox just thought it was wonderful we let them do whatever they wanted to do and they didnt have to take naps. which is the best deal for mattison she hates naps. Maddon loved sliding and me and brandon took turns taking him downt he slide. Well the point of the picture is the one below where brandon slides completely off the slide. He didnt think it would go that fast. I could not stop laughing it was really funny.

Maddon's First Steps

Maddon started taking a some steps a few weeks ago and I have been trying to find my battery charger for my video camera and cant find it. So we managed to get a little bit with the cell phone recorder its not he best quality so you will have to excuse it. Maddon is getting so big and i cant believe that he will be 1 in a few weeks. It feels like yesterday that this time last year we were sitting in Little Rock on bed rest just hoping he waited a few more weeks to be born. Now are little tyke is walking.

The Day in Texarkana

Last Saturday we went to Texarkana to spend the day for Mothers Day. It was nasty outside and of course it was storming. Haley came over and played for a while and we got to visit with my mom which we rarely get to do. We had a great time and glad we got to visit. Here are a few pictures from the day although there is none of my mom because she had smartlipo done and looks like she got a her butt whipped, So we will have to get pictures with memaw later. :

I had to catch Haley playing with the Barbies for Black Male!LOL..she thinks that she is too old


My Haley is almost as big as me..She is always at my house i feel like she is my 2nd daughter. We love for her to come visit.


Maddon Surrounded by Barbies but still picks up the Car. Brandon is so proud that he is all BOY he loves tractors, cars and anything he can push. He will drive the cars and make the Vroom Vroom sounds its so funny. Maddox on the other hand fights his sister for the Barbies and crys "She took my barbie" drives daddy crazy!

Rainy Day's

The tittle of the blog says it all, it has done nothing but RAIN! Its always nice for a few rainy days for the excuse to stay in and do nothing. I did get caught up on some laundry and a few other things that needed to be done. Im ready for the sunshine, on these rainy days i did snap a few pictures of the kiddos. Maddon has this thing when you take a picture of him he shows all his teeth and makes a funny face.

This is his picture face
