Love our cousins!

We ALWAYS love when Jenny, Jack and Anna come to visit. (Missed ya Kevin!)  Anna and Peyton seem to really enjoy each others company and play so well together now.  (It wasn't always so pleasant.  Their strong personalities and play preferences clashed.  Anna thought they should be playing fairies and butterflies and Peyton wanted to hunt animals and bad guys. lol)    We hope to have more visits this summer.  

Wounded Warriors Parade 2012

This is our 3rd year attending the parade. One of our favorite events of the summer! 

Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!

In celebration of Dr. Seuss' Birthday, Peyton's Little School requested that the students dress "Seussical."  Much like everything else. I forgot until sometime after 8pm Wednesday night that Thursday was THE day!  I scrambled and after a trip to Walmart, some glue, felt, etc. I came up with a costume. 

Let me introduce you to...THING 1!  

and his "zany' friends at Little School

Thing 1 and Thing 2
You ask, "Who is that?"
They're a Seussical pair
From the Cat in the Hat

They come out of a box,
Thing 1 and Thing 2.
They do not say much,
Just "How do you do?"

They make mischief & mayhem
with "bumps, jumps, and kicks"
They like to fly kites
and do lots of bad tricks.

They destroy the whole house
while running about
as the fish in the dish yells
"You must get them out!"

Till at last, mom is seen
at the end of the day.
And the Cat packs them up
and takes them away.

-Dr. Seuss

Sunday Cuties

Yum Yum!

Whether it's breakfast, lunch or dinner, it's always a messy time here at the McCarrell house. Spaghetti night is especially messy but always fun and super cute to photograph! 

Happy Birthday Gus!

My Brothers son, August Rex aka Gus, turned 2 today!  We went to their house in El Campo for pizza and cake.  The boys had lots of fun playing with their cousins.  I only got pics of Gus but he is the Birthday Boy right? 

Haaaaappy Birthdaaaaaay toooooo Youuuuuuu!

Yum... blue icing!

Tub Time

When I get the time, I enjoy actually using my camera...especially shooting fun pics of the boys. I have found that it's very relaxing to "play" with my editing program so when I get the chance for a few "me" minutes I do just that. I think these are really sweet pictures of Cooper, Greyson & Bode.

GREYSON REID

BODE FRANK

Bathed, dressed and watching tv.

UPDATE..I plan to frame and hang these tub pics in the boys bathroom so I had to try to get a better shot of Greyson and also one of Peyton.
