SMBC Branson/Trip

I would really liked to have added text to my slideshow but it took 40 forevers just to get the pics so maybe later I will try to add some text...we had a great time and can't wait to go back.

Saddle Ridge Ranch VBS

We had vbs in the month of June...Avery attended 3 before it was over...FBC...MOBC and then SMBC...She enjoyed it and all her freinds and teachers.

Lil SIssy

The newest addition to the Pennington place..is Lil Sissy..Pop's new mountain cur pup..You see who's baby she is...and she is a good lil mother...too funny..she can put this puppy in her lil doll bassinet and it will go to sleep...just like she knows what she is in there for.

Cricut Mermaid

Avery and I broke out the Cricut the other day and made some paper dolls...they were too cute! Just need more time to do this stuff

~Pool Time~

Rylie Shay is on her way ( Spelling ? )

A couple of weeks ago we celebrated the upcoming birth of Lil Miss Rylie Shay..which will be Della's 3rd grandbaby..(had to throw that in)...lol...And I also found out that night that Tammy is soon to be a grandmother too...

We had a great time being together and

Mommy & Daddy got lots of goodies for their precious baby girl...

Zach - Daddy to be

Kaitlynn - Mommy to be

Her corsage

Summer stuff!

Hot, Dirty & I am quite sure Stinky....Craig had to cut down another one of our trees that lightning had struck some time back...so we were just hanging out watching...in the heat!!! Yuck!

She was mocking Louie here

Here she is hiding under the boat trailer..out of the sun.

Not sure..just looks like a monkey face or something.

Had to been cause here she is acting like a lil monkey

Friends Till the End

Tried to move this pic down with the rest and it would not work...This is my dear friend Kim and her sister Joni...so enjoyed getting to spend time with them all.

A couple of weeks ago, I got the joy of spending some time with one of my dearest friends...We don't get to see each other that often..but when we do the time is priceless to me...I so look forward to her visit each year...I know it is important to keep those relationships that remind of us of who we are and where we came from and where we are going together in this crazy thing called life.

This is Jim, her nephew, he and his boys were there too, Avery was the only girl out of 5..you know she felt like the little princess...but she ran and romped just like the others...and plus she got a lil crush on Warren...she told me later that she thought he was super cute..LOL!

This is Avery giving Warren a neck massage


These are Jim's boys...they have grown so much since the last time I saw them..

Kim and I...you know you're getting old when you can say that you have been freinds with someone for over 30 years...wow..where does the time go.

Kim and part of her precious family...

Warren, Kim, Jeff & Parker

I love you Kimberley!!! Thank you for being a forever friend!!!
