Daddy and his buddy

Jamie took Jace for a "stroll" on the 4 wheeler....I wasn't here so I don't know how much strolling they did. Jace really did love it and this is one of his favorite things to do, despite the look on his face. I think he's just trying to figure it all out so he can drive himself!

First Day of School 2015

So proud of these kids ~ all smiles before going to a brand new school, not knowing a soul. Thankfully they know their bus driver - Mr. Ronnie aka Freedo aka Papa's best friend. So thankful he'll be their driver, knowing how long they are on that bus everyday. I'm pretty sure Ronnie thinks it's pretty neat to see Richard's grandkids get on his bus. They also all ride together. Jasmine's school (9th through 12th) is at the top of the hill and the rest of the kids go to the school at the bottom of the hill (not our hill, the school hill) where it's Pre-K through 8th.

Jasmine (9th grade), Jacob (6th grade), Jenna (4th grade) and Jaylynn (1st grade)

My baby's first day of college...

Wait a second, that simply canNOT be. He had to have skipped a few grades because I can't have a freshman in college. Jordan, being the good son he is, sent me this picture on his first day of school because I'm the mom and I want the picture. Plus I gave him life so these are the things I get in return.

I'm pretty proud of this dude. He's going to do amazing things. But because I don't like to admit he's 18, an adult and like a really real person, here's a pic of how I pretend he still is...because it's all my heart can handle.

Just because

Does this really need any other explanation than just because?

Ugh, those teeth. Jasmine and I are obsessed with them. And the eyelashes. I mean, seriously.
