Smores

Chris had to work in the yard this afternoon. We joined him and made S'mores for our snack.
Maddie roasting her marshmellow.
Ty did not want to roast his.

Chris even took Ty for a ride on the lawn mower. He was in heaven!

Princess Party

The mall hosted a Princess Party. I took Maddie and Ella and we met Aunt Lala and Emma there.

Swim Lessons Week 2

The second week of swim lessons went even better than the first. Maddie remembered everything she learned the first time and then did some new things too. Maddie is part fish because she does NOT want to get out of the water at the end. She even got to stay in while Ty had his lessons, but that still wasn't long enough!



This week Ty went right to Miss Ashley and worked hard for her. She made him try lots of things and he did his best.

Where's Ty and Miss Ashley?
There they are!!




Ma's Week

Ma came last week to babysit Ty and Maddie. Lynda was in San Antonio watching Alyssa play basketball.
Ty and Maddie love when Ma visits. She takes them to breakfast every morning!
Then they always do cool projects!
This time Ma made them each a pillow...Ty got Spiderman and Maddie got princesses!

Haylie

Haylie was on spring break from OU and stopped by for a visit. She missed Maddie and Ty and needed to see them!




I heard the visit went great according to Ma. Chris and I were at school when she came.
We miss you too Haylie!!

Swim Lessons

Ty and Maddie started swim lessons at Rosecrans.
Daddy had to get in with Ty but Maddie went right to Miss Ashley.
It took some time for Ty to warm up to the idea that he couldn't do whatever he wanted to do in the pool.
