He wore this at the 1996 Olympics. Apparently, it was the thing to have?




Jumping for the 4th of July!



On your mark, get set, oh wait, I see more kids coming....




I may be little but I sure am proud to be free! Free to eat popsicles and wear shades!!!

Taylor Malone is READY!

Mini-Dev



So, this is Olivia! She is one special little girl who has already been through so much in her first 6 months of life. She had open heart surgery when she was 2 months and is doing great now. She is my precious friend, Devin's little girl and she came in for a short visit over the weekend. She looks exactly like Devin....blue eyes, big smile, and all. Caroline sobbed when she left!!

Jackson is her older brother and equally as adorable. He and Caroline were wide open ALL weekend. You will see his pics below. Thanks for making the trip Olivia!!!

On Saturday, my precious friends Devin and Pat, came in town with their children Jackson and Olivia and we spent half the day at the Botanicals. It is beautifully done and just a great place for children and adults to explore. Caroline and Jackson LOVED it. Besides the heat, it was a FUN day!
