Rodeo Days

Tonight we headed to the Fort Smith Rodeo. Our friend, JC has box seats on the front row so Abby is up close and personal with all the horses, bulls and sheep. She loved it again this year and even asked for Daddy & Mommy to get her a horse....not happening!

Much love,

Memorial Day

After such a busy weekend, we spent Memorial day lazily relaxing around the house. Abby talked us into getting her wading pool out so she could swim. Mumzie and Pop are staying with us this week so Abby asked to watch some of her favorite "moomies" aka movies with them. This evening we headed to Paula and Rod's house for a barbecue. It was the perfect Memorial day meal of ribs, potato salad and cole slaw.  Abby didn't pay much attention to anyone except Paula & Rod's dog, Bear. He's a sweet old dog that Abby played fetch with all evening.

Jessica & Austin's Wedding

This weekend we attended Jessica & Austin's wedding in Little Rock. We arrived late Friday afternoon just in time to make it to the rehearsal dinner at the country club. We we so excited to see all our family there and Abigail was particularly excited about the huge dance floor. She danced and danced the night away.

 On Saturday we got up and headed down to the pool so Abby and Sally could swim. Those girls had so much fun in the pool together. Unfortunately, daddy & mommy didn't think to bring our swimsuits so we had to watch from the deck! We headed back to the room around 2 so Abby could take a nice long nap!

Abby's nap did her (and mommy & daddy) wonders! We were all well rested by the time the wedding started. Jessica looked beautiful as Jenn's dad and Jessica's other granddad walked her down the aisle. Mommy was pretty much a puddle through most of the ceremony. It was such a special event to us and we were glad to be there.

The reception was a blast because so many family members were there that we just don't get to see that often. Abigail again had a blast dancing the night away. She danced non-stop until about 11 pm! Finally, we pulled her away from the floor and headed to the hotel for bed.

As you can see Abigail was completely worn out from the weekend's festivities! It took her two days to fully recover! Congratulations to Jessica & Austin, we love you!

Much love,
Moises & Jennifer

Shopping Time

In preparation for our niece Jessica's wedding, we took Abby shopping for dresses for the rehearsal dinner and wedding. As usual, there were no complaints from Abby when we told her we were going shopping. Since Abigail is so opinionated on what she wears we usually allow her to pick her own outfits (within reason!). She quickly chose two cute dresses and headed over to select shoes. Every time we go to buy shoes, we are always shocked at how much her feet have grown. This trip was no different as she's now moved up to the "young girls" shoe section. She was excited because it offered so many more choices! She even tried on flip flops but didn't like anything between her toes! Here she is checking out her new kicks in the mirror!

Fishing Time

One of daddy's favorite things to do is go fishing. He has always said he's going to make sure Abs knows how to fish. This weekend he decided to get a jump start on teaching her by getting her very first fishing pole. Of course, it's a Disney princess fishing pole and we haven't graduated to actual hooks just yet, but she's really doing a great job at casting. We are very impressed at how quickly she's learned. 

In addition to learning how to fish, Abby has been a sous chef for BB. She washes strawberries and helps mash potatoes for dinner. Abby thinks she's such a big girl because BB will pull up a stool for her to stand on right at the sink. Abby even tells her when to add 'jus a wittle bit, k' to the potatoes.

Much love,

Mother's Day 2014

This weekend Daddy & Abby made mommy feel like a princess. Mommy did not have to lift a finger the whole weekend to cook, clean or do laundry. Friday night Daddy made steak and potatoes, which were delicious as usual. Saturday we relaxed, watched movies and played all day. Sunday, Daddy & Abby took mommy out for a pancake breakfast and surprised mommy with a beautiful new ring and a special Abby creation! We finished out the weekend with another homemade dinner from Daddy. It was such a wonderful weekend for mommy. Being a mother & wife is so much more fulfilling than one can ever imagine. Mommy is blessed beyond words!

Much Love,
Moises & Jennifer

Lounging Around

We are settling in nicely to our house. Abby feels so comfy she can lounge and eat her "cupcake" her word for jello with cool whip!

Much Love,

Moises & Jennifer
