First Day of School!

Back to Nativity!  Today was our first day back after summer break.  I was a little nervous, but really glad that I had Mrs. Supplee again.  She makes going to school much easier!  Mom says that when I'm nervous, I act silly like Daddy does.  This is probably why she couldn't get a good picture of me all morning!

Happy 3rd Birthday, Meekin!

This was the last picture of Meekin as a 2 year old! 

As soon as he woke up, he was ready to go and wanted to open 'surprises'!

First up was an I Spy puzzle and a big cheese face! 

Next was a very soft t shirt and you know it had to be put on immediately! 

'Despicable Me' was next and he was pretty excited.  He had to wait until later in the day to open more, but he loved every minute! 

His request on how to spend his big day?  Bass Pro!  Kicking back on the camouflage couch! 

And taking a fake nap! 

Of course, there were test drives on every ATV and boat! 

 We had kabobs for dinner...

 followed by chocolate cake!!

 I think his wish is that he could have a birthday every day!

A Rockin' Party

Our friend Kora had a rock star birthday party over the weekend and we had a really good time!  We played at the park before the party started, which we loved!

I was trying to see if I could spot Pluto...

I have great balance! 

This is my monkey pose! 

Meeks! 

Not to be shown up by me, he was trying to see Pluto too! 

Ms. Becky from Music with Mar was there so we sang and danced! 

Cutie patooty boys! 

Mommy's friends Hadley and Vanessa 

Meeks got his rock star image going! 

ooh...and then the black teeth from the cookie frosting! 

Pitts Family Reunion 2011

After being in Branson, we headed for Wheatland and 5 days of camping with the family.  We love running wild around the campground and being in the lake!

 We even got Aunt Carol, Aunt Allison and Alan on the big tube! 

 Talk about running wild...Meekin even snatched Twizzlers for breakfast one morning!



To Branson with the Barkers

The first week of August, we headed to Branson with the Barkers for a couple of days for a big time!  We visited Silver Dollar City and White Water and were pooped out by the time we left!

Meekin and Preston loved the flooded mine!

 Shel and Preston hop, hop, hopped on the frogs!

I don't think Shel expected quite that much bouncing!

 Preston, Shel and Jo

Daddy, Tim, Meekin and I were on this!  It was Meekin's first time riding and I think he liked it!

 It was over 100 degrees each day we were there!  Here's Hot Stuff Jo on the butterflies. 

 Preston, Meekin and I on the ladybugs.

 Tim and the kids at Geyser Gulch.

 Poor baby Meekin was very tired.  He got in the stroller shortly after this and took a nap.

 Preston had a blast in the ball pit at Geyser Gulch.

 The Barkers loved watching the blacksmith.

 Meanwhile, back at the hotel...Meekin buried me in on the couch after some time at White Water.

We spent the evening at SDC again.  What a cute bunch we are!

 A train ride!

 Uh oh!  We're being robbed!

 We entered Grandfathers Mansion to see the upside down room.

 Check out the crooked floors as we exited!

 Preston and Meekin checked out the sample coffin.

 A hot, sweaty couple of boys!

 Jo and I...She's my best good friend!

MMMMM....  Funnel cake time! 

 Stuff it in!

 Time for a few more rides!  A nice little girl let Meekin ride with him so he wouldn't have to wait until the next round.

What a whopping good time!
