Toothless Grin

Brylee had a tooth so loose that you wanted to reach in her mouth and grab it.  It dangled there for a couple of weeks.

 Finally it fell out all on it's own while eating breakfast with her most adorable friend. But she refused let any one see she had lost her two front teeth.

On a side note how stinking adorable are these two.  Bells is Brylee's wanna be little sister.  They even dress alike.

She still won't open her mouth so I can see her adorable toothless grin.

I snuck a picture when she wasn't thinking about her missing teeth.  You see when you think you are 16 it is not cool to walk around with missing teeth.

Finally I got the picture during a fun game of hangman.

Love my toothless girl and her amazing smile!

Sweaty Bretty

Yesterday was Brett's last summer basketball workout at the Y.

He did plyometric basketball excercises.

I would sweat just watching him.  I need a workout like that.

They worked the boys hard.

But they always had something fun at the end.  Dodgeball was a favorite.

He was one Sweaty Bretty at the end of his workouts.

Obstacle Course fun! 

Loggers Game

Baseball season has come to an end.

 Jake's baseball team was invited to a Loggers game.

A great way to end the season.

He is watching in awe of the players warming up.

Dreaming of what it would be like to play on the big field.

"#88 Jacob Cavanaugh" was announced, he ran with pride listening to the applause and gave his high fives.

Standing proud with his team.

Then he was able to follow the big guys out onto the field.  He took his hat off, put it over his heart and stood for the national anthem.

I am very proud of my ball player...

and so are they!

He found his old dirty ball he brought with and timidly asked the ball players for their autographs.

He is optimistic that someday he will be the owner of a famous autograph.

Someday Jake,  you will be the one giving autographs.....

Dream big buddy!  Dream big!

Slurping Spaghetti

Another lost tooth.  Right smack in the front of her smile.

It left the perfect spot to slurp spaghetti through.

J showing off his slurping skills.

Brett ate too fast to get a slurping picture.

Cheers to another lost tooth!

Matthew Loves Katie

There was a wedding today.

This little girl's uncle got married.

Which meant Brylee and I whipped up some flower girl hair.

and done!

This gorgeous flower girl was not as thrilled.

Done with only a few tears shed.

Love these sisters!

Gorgeous girls!

Due to the fact Brylee wants to be sisters with Abby and Anna she is eager to some day marry their handsome brother.

The finger helps especially when you lose your mama.

The groom and his mom.

A job well done by this flower girl.

Congrats Matt and Katie!

They found the brides shoes and marveled over them.

Straight up Mountain Dew.

Straight up Pepsi.

Thank you Matt and Katie for letting us share your special day.

Here's to many years to come!
