You're gonna miss this....

you're gonna want this back.....

Oh how I love this.

Really I do.

I love watching them grow and mature. I love treating them more like adults.

(We are at the capitol in Jefferson City. Very neat interactive center)

BUT...I sure do miss this!
Sometimes I want this back.
Look how sweet they are!
I mean...this picture just catapults me into the past about 3 years.
I would love to have cherished this a little more.

The Fourth...

The Fourth was very quiet for us. We got lots of invites to so many places that we ended up staying home until that evening and spending a quiet night at mom's with the Route C people:) That morning we headed to church. It was Xavier's first time. The kids were all decked out in red, white, and blue! That afternoon, we hung out at home and went to buy fireworks. Colby was so excited. Here are a few pictures of the day...out of order of course.

Miss Natalee chillin' in the grass.

Colby and Rhett shooting off bottle rockets and such.
Emma wanted to hold Xavier.
My cute kids!
This picture would be great except my eyes are all squinty. My Aunt Marcia took this picture and said a curse word in church. She was so shocked I thought she was going to pass out.
The four grandkids. How sweet:)

Miss Emma and Mr. Trenton

Have a relationship like no other...

He can listen to her for hours....

She can almost sense when he needs a hug from her....

Another sweet thing...

The Sweetest Things...

Is this not one of the sweetest things you have ever laid eyes on??:)

Love you guys!

Remember this?

Remember when I bought Natalee and Emma matching dresses?

I can't wait to see Xavier and Colby in this!
