Burning daylight to 1st grade

just another brush pile to burn in Mimi's yard.  

Noah has been begging to start school again and well we ordered his supplies and got started.  

Day one of 1st grade is all smiles.

And we had an audience to cheer him on in his studies.

Then for recess.  

while this one woke up from nap 

And Aunt Ali came over.

The play set is finally finished.

Sunday's at the Snowden house

It usually goes like this.  We swing and wait for lunch to be ready.  And is usually is shortly.

Then after our belly's are full of okra and squash and such we like to sun.  

My little copy cat. 

Giving Sissy love.

And we played a little croquet too.

Daddy's weekend away /we headed to the country

I love mornings when they all want to come pile in the bed with Momma.  

Drew was away with Disciple now 7th grade boys and well we were at home.  

Then we met up with Grana and Babu and headed to the country.

Picked out some tomaters. 

Gazed the ole famous Chunky River.

And checked on the fruit trees and the blueberry bushes.

At our sandwiches in the back of the pick up and headed through the basin.

It was a great day for me and I just felt at home.

I loved showing the kids where I grew up coming when I was little.

And the Pond that my Papaw built.

We looked for Deer tracks and found some.

Then we got right down to some cane pole fishing.

My little cricket holder.

My sweet girl and her first time fishing. 

Babu teaching Noah how to put the cricket on. 

Luke was the first to catch a fish and he sure was not humble about it.  He was yelling to everyone.  And rightly so.

Proud smile.

Babu on Anna duty.

Momma's first fish of the day.

Luke caught a bass.

holding Babu's catch.

Typical to do errands

Everyday in the life of us.......we do things like go to the dentist.  But I am so blessed everyday to BE with my children.  The see them through each day and to hear all their little concerns.  

After we got home Noah received his Kindergarten diploma.  

And we get to spend much needed time with family and getting to know them.  

We run to the library.  

And we bring new books home for Daddy to read to us.
