"I wand wide!"


One of the best statements of the weekend was "I wand Wide!"  Reid walked right up to Pierce while he had stopped for 2.5 seconds in his gator and said that!  It was the best!  He had to do it on his OWN and when he wanted too!  It was great!
We got to celebrate John and Dana!
Pierce made a new friend and had a blast with her!
We swam quite and bit and I froze quite a bit!
We played in the dirt! 
We had quite a few Popsicles!  
Momma and I went to the Prince reunion!  
We were outside A LOT!  
Enjoy! 


 They smelled so good! And Reid had to test them out too!  :) 


 Snoozing! 


Hard at "work" in their dirt pile! :) 

 

 Nona caught a tiny frog! Reid tried to blow him out of her hand and Pierce held him just a minute!  :) 






 Harvest!
 So, Pierce was riding his gator so late that it was dark.  Papa tried and succeeded on rigging a flash light to the front!  only Papa's right?  ;) 
Saturday morning, Momma and I were lucky enough to spend the morning with Dana, her wedding planner and her Maid of Honor going over how the day would run at the church!  It is the church that Brian and I married in. I grew up with some of my very best friends in that church!  I even found Ellen and I's hidey hole!  I said I would have to get the boys picture in there!  :)  I love that church and being there that morning was so peaceful and fun!  



We came home and swam, or SOME of us skinny dipped!  ;) 
HA!!! 

 Helping Nona snap beans!  :) 



John and Dana had a shower (7/26/2014) at Garrett and Erin's house!  Mrs Vicky (Garrett's Mom) and Erin through the party! Garrett and John have been friends since elementary school!  They have a little girl Eliza that you will see with Pierce soon!  All week prior to the weekend, Pierce would say "We have party for Uncle John!?"  :)  It was a beautiful night!  The food was to die for!  The kids had a great time! We got to visit and enjoy the peace of the country! The time passed to quickly for me!

 Eating with Bo and Tia! 
 Sweet!
 John's friend Brad and his wife Meredith 

Funny/NUTS statement of the night:  I walked up to Brad and said "HI!  I'm Stacy, John's Brother!"  Not only did he look at me funny but he looked like he was thinking "WHO IS THIS CRACK JOB HERE AT THIS PARTY AND HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW HER!?"  :)  Then I instantly said "Nope, I am his sister, yep, I am his sister!"  ha!!
Then when he introduced me to his wife, I was instantly like "I KNOW YOU!"  Finally through story telling of where we lived and what we did, I worked with her at the hospital in ~2006!  I do remember her at the hospital the minute she told me where she worked!  :) Small world!  

 ICING! 
 John and Jerry! 
Partners in Crime!
Mrs. Melinda and Momma! 
 Best picture of the night!  :) 

Yep, they are pretty adorable!  :) 
 After "Uncle John's Party" Do you think he had fun? 
When we got in the truck that night he said "Look at my dirty toes!"  hahaha!  He had run in the grass barefoot so long that they had turned green!  
HOLD ON REID!  :)

 Reid held on like this the WHOLE time! Holding on for DEAR LIFE!  :)  
 At first Pierce went really slow for Reid then, it was ALL over and they were full speed ahead!! 
 Look at Reid's look!  HA!
 Pierce:  "Can we go fast now?"


 Look at the wind in Reid's hair! 
 Reid cleaning the windshield!  

 Just another #poseypatrol picture! 
 They played in the dirt some more! 
 Watched tadpoles!
 MORE riding!  
Helped "haul" things to the basement!

Hippity Hoppity!

Pierce and I discovered a TEENY TINY frog this morning!  (7/20/14).  He was literally no bigger than a dime!  He was adorable! 

 This picture isn't great but he was looking right at me and made me think he was saying "what the crap is that in my face?"  :) 
 I caught him JUMPING!  LOVE THIS!

 Then Reid was interested and Pierce was the sweetest big brother and was pointing and showing him!  :)

Dinner with 13 pretty ladies and 1 gentleman! :)

We love to have outings for ANY reason to get together!

WARNING!
8 legged animal in photo!!!
:)
So, Meet Rosie Za Za!
One morning we realized we had a Garden Spider or as Reid says "Spidey!" that had "nested" on our deck!  Nona happened to be here and told Pierce all about Uncle John and his "Rosie's" that came back every year at our house!  Uncle John would feed her and enjoy watching her eat!  Unlike Momma here, that wanted to run for the hills!  AND I STILL DO!  It took all I had to get her picture and it took a lot more for me to pick out which picture to show on the blog!  ha!  
So, when Pierce heard about Uncle John's Rosie he decided to name ours Rosie Za Za!  
We check on her every night and see what she has done!  
I MIGHT put updated pictures but it depends on how my skin is crawling that day!  
:)
