What Month Is It Anyway?

Where in the world has time gone? Is it really the middle of May? I'm still stuck in March and am having a hard time believing that next week is the last week of school for the year! Does that mean that my babies are a year older?...sniff...sniff!!! I lost track of time (imagine that) and forgot that bluebonnets aren't around forever, but I managed to find a small patch of bluebonnets last Monday, so at least I could snap a couple of pictures of the girls in them...



We had a fun and relaxing Mother's Day and did what I've been waiting ALL YEAR to do (not!!)...yep...I got to go to the carnival! Hannah has been eyeing the carnival across from Target forever and begging us to take her, and of course it was right up Brett's ally, so he gave in really fast!! It wasn't that bad, but it was pretty gross and I had to hide myself and the girls from the nasty carnies, squirt germ-x in every one's hands every 2 seconds, but Hannah had a ball and Alice Anne has never clinged so hard to my hip. She literally would not put her feet on the ground. She did not know what to think. Every time Hannah was on a ride, she repeated over and over in the sweetest, most terrified voice, "Hannah off now!" Hannah rode on her first actual roller coaster that I think I would have even been scared of, but she got off of it laughing. She did admit that it was really fast and pretty scary, but she still laughed...a girl after her daddy's own heart!! The carnival reminded me of going to Abilene to stay with my grandparents when I was little. Daddymoore used to always take us to the carnival and we would get wrist bands so we could ride as many rides as we wanted. We would stay until it closed and ride rides until we were literally throwing up. I told Hannah that Daddymoore would have had so much fun taking her to the carnival!
Our skeptical little girl...
Our daring little girl...
Me and My Girls!!


Weekend before last, the girls went to Waco and had a blast!!! Hannah's bag was packed and by the backdoor by 8:30 in the morning (and she "packed" Alice Anne's, too)...we weren't leaving until 4:00 that afternoon-made for a LONG day and I'm sure I heard, "when are we going to Waco" at LEAST 500 times!
