I was going through some of our older pictures and found some of my dear friends and family! WOW how much has changed!! I can't believe our hair use to look like that and how my parents look is what I am at now! They are my age in these pictures! It is so hard to believe.
These are 2 of my dearest friends from High School, Carolyn and Sandra. We were inseperatable in school and even out of school it was worse, we did everything together! We are still very close, only by phone and email, Carolyn is in Florida and Sandra is in San Antonio last I heard, it's been awhile since we have talked. But the memories we shared and will continue to share are priceless! I miss those carefree days when all we had to worry about was getting money for gas to go crusing! LOL It's funny there is a song by Pink and she talks about "if someone would have said 3 years from now, you'd be long gone I would punch them in the mouth" that's how we thought and luckily we are able to stay in touch and build more memories!

Summer Fun!
Boy has it been an eventful couple of weeks! My Aunt had her grandkids for a week and the cousins went wild!! It was so much fun! We went swimming at BLORA which is a place on post that is part of Belton Lake, (we went there to see the Christmas lights and it took us 4 hours to get through) but I didn't know that it's all free for us in the military. They have paddle boats and a water slide and an area sectioned off for swimming. I was impressed. They had a car wash for little kids who were not tall enough for the slide, it was neat. But onto the water slide, Devon and Breeann went about 10 times and then finally Sfrona wanted to go. Well I was hoping she wasn't tall enough but who am I kidding! LOL She was determined to do it, so we CLIMB a million steps to get there and she is so happy and I find out I can't go down the slide with her, so I'm panicking! She still wants to go, so the lifeguard blew his whistle to let the other lifeguard know a small child is coming down. Well Sfrona gets halfway down and he tells me to go ahead and go, I said not until I see my baby safely on the side of the pool, and of course everyone is laughing! Finally I see her and I go down, when I get out of the pool she says I want to go again mama! OH MY GOSH! We headed for the million staircase and up we went. This time she knows what is going to happen and she starts to say no mama and the line is so long, so I tell her to get up and we'll go back down the stairs and swim, then she started yelling louder NO Mama I want to slide, she really couldn't make up her mind, she ended up going down and when I got to the bottom I was praying please let her say she was done, because I did not want to go up those stairs again! She was done and we went back swimming, the next day my legs hurt so bad! LOL
Then we went to a carnival a few days later and we had a fairly good time, we were not there 10 mins and my Aunt steps off the curb and breaks a bone in her ankle! She had just gotten a new job and knew they were going to fire her, but they didn't, they let her work and we are so thankful for that! Here are some pics of both events!

July 4th
I hope everyone had a great July 4th! We sure did our family came up from Houston and we had a wonderful time swimming and visiting. We didn't set off fireworks this year at home because it is so dry and after New Year's Eve when the field caught on fire, we decided it was best just to go into town to watch them! Sfrona sat in everyone's lap and held her hand over her ears the whole time. I swear that child has over sensitive hearing! We had a good time.
Darran is doing good, we are about halfway through school and counting each day till he comes home. Reagan is good also, her teeth are healing fine and then it's on to braces.
The last pic of Sfrona is her in a Hannah Montana wig. We had a b-day party for Breann and she got a wig and Sfrona had it on! Darran said we should dye her hair blonde because it really brings out her blue eyes in the photo. I thought it was so funny to see her with it on! LOL

Updates
I am so glad June is over! It has been a crazy month! Reagan has had 2 teeth pulled and had surgery on her ear to remove a plug, and next is cleaning teeth and then braces! hard to believe she is already needing braces. She is doing good and pulled through the surgery fine, I will be glad when she grows out of all these ear problems.
Sfrona is soooo ready for school, that is ALL I hear about. I am not sure I am ready for her to go to school but she so wants to go. She really thinks it's cool because that is where sissy and daddy are all the time it seems. Sometimes I wish she was still a baby and then other times I am so excited for her to be starting this new era in her life. It is so much fun to watch her learn new things, the other day I taught her how to play what we called slaps where you hold both your hands on top of someone else's and then you try to slap their hands, it is the most hilarious thing to see her try to get the concept of it but she tries her best. I also showed her the thing where you show someone they have something on their shirt and then you flick their nose, that is even more hilarious, she gets so excited that i am going to flick her nose she starts laughing before I even do it! LOL
Last but not least here is a picture my uncle had made for my mom, it's an older picture of Sfrona but I thought it was so neat, it is all done in pencil except the bows and earring are done in paint. I loved it!

Party Hardy!
Wow it has been so long since I posted, I am so sorry, we have been busy busy! Well we got Reagan out of school and she passed to the 7th grade! I can't believe it has gone by so fast! It seems like yesterday she was a little girl and now she is going on 13! Time flies!
Darran got to come home for Memorial Day and so we had Sfrona's b-day party. It turned out great! They all had a good time. Darran's trip was to short it always is. We were just glad he could come!
Not a whole lot else has been going on we are just swimming and trying to stay cool, it is already hitting 100 plus degrees and it is horrible! We can't do anything outside until 8:00 pm and then it is still 85 degrees! Guess summer is here and it's still not summer yet! LOL
I will try to do better at posting in the future!

Band Concert
Reagan had a band concert this weekend and let me tell you they sound a whole lot better at the end of the school year then they did at the beginning! LOL Although they only played 2 songs this time, I was bummed that they didn't play more. But she did good and we are so proud of her for sticking with it and learning it, don't know if she'll pick it up again next year I hope so.
Sfrona is beginning to talk a lot better on the phone, it seems like that's the only way to talk to daddy anymore LOL but her new thing this week is when she is saying good-bye to him she says the I Love you daddy and don't let the bed bugs bite!! Where she got that I have no idea, I don't ever remember saying that to her because I was always afraid she wouldn't get in the bed if there were bugs. She had to have seen it on TV or someone said it to her, it is so funny to hear her say that. Her other favorite thing to sing is a song from a commercial that has a puppy singing " No more bugs on me (repeat) some of you mugs may have bugs but there ain't no bugs on me" the ad is for fleas to get rid of them, I usually mute the commercials but she will tell me to turn that on mama!! LOL

What the Future Holds
Wow, it has been some time since I have last blogged! Sorry about that things have been going non stop since Darran went to school.
We had Reagan this weekend and boy did Sfrona love having her. I hardly ever see Sfrona when Reagan is here because she is always near her sister. It is really weird since Sfrona is always near me when Reagan isn't here and I find myself lost sometimes when they are together playing. It makes me realize that my baby is growing up way to fast and doesn't need to be near me all the time. I can't believe she is going to be 4 years old in June!! I am so thankful for the time I get to spend with both of the girls because I know to soon they will be starting their lives away from us, Reagan for instance this weekend we had a conversation about college and she told me that she wants to be a Pediatrician. I told her it was alot of schooling and she said she didn't care. This isn't the first time either that she told me she wanted to be a pediatrician. So I hope and pray she will keep on this path and look forward to what the future may hold. It would be great to have 2 doctor's in the family, cuz I just have a feeling Sfrona will want to be a Vet. Me and Reagan went through Sfrona's toy box today and I bet she has 50 horses in her toys, that's not counting all the other type of animals that she has, that would be to many to count! LOL So one baby doctor and one animal doctor, I bet we could live with that, of course no matter what they decide to do with their lives we will be behind them 100% all the way!!!
