Myrtle Beach

We went to Myrtle Beach to see my friend from Ohio. For those who don't know, we met online and this was the first time we were meeting. Riley and Maren are 3 days apart and then Reagan and Will are 3 months apart. We were so excited to meet and so excited for Riley and Maren to meet because are like the same kid. It took a little while for them to warm up to each other, but once they did, they had a blast. It was sad to leave knowing we wouldn't see them again for a long time.

We met at Broadway At The Beach and the kids had so much fun on the carousel, train, and planes. Then we went to the beach and swimming in the pools. The kids just had so much fun playing together.

The Zoo

We went to the zoo with Dylan and Harlie. Poor Riley had a fever that day and wasn't herself... what is up with my poor baby getting sick on days we are doing fun things? But we had fun anyway. We rode the carousel (twice) for Dylan and Harlie, rode the train, and Harlie got to ride a horse (she looks serious, but she was having fun).

Mother's Day

We went out to the Battery for our Mother's Day picnic. My sister, the girls, and my parents also went with us this year. Jason did so good planning it all out and getting all the food together. My dad was supposed to help, but he really didn't do much:)

It was a really nice picnic... weather was great and the girls had a blast while we (the moms) just sat and relaxed.... well, my mom and I did, but my sister had to chase Harlie around so she wouldn't attack other kids, LOL.

The girls had a blast running around chasing squirrels, climbing the tree, playing in the fountain, looking at the water, and playing with the cannons.

Tapley's Graduation

We made a trip up to Clemson to see Tapley graduate. Riley was so excited to "see her graduate" even though I'm pretty sure she doesn't really understand what that means. We had a very busy 2 days up there with the girls staying up really really late and up early in the mornings. They loved staying in a hotel, especially being across the hall from Nonnie and Gumpy so they could run between the 2 rooms. They loved playing at the lake with Margot, Tapley, Melissa, and Candy, and they loved swimming.

They were really good the hour before the ceremony. Then it started and got quiet and they weren't as good so we had to go outside to wait and wait and wait until it was time to watch Tapley walk across the stage.

Then we got home and Dylan and Harlie were waiting for us. They all ran right to each other and were so excited to be reunited!

Spiked

I've been trying to post this for a long time now, but of course my computer just won't be nice to me!

One day Reagan's hair was a little out of control and I was thinking about how my mom tells me that I "just need to use a little product" and it will be fine. So knowing we were off to take a bath I decided to try some product to see what happend. Well........ didn't work out!!! No amount of product would have helped this child. So then I decided to spike it up and to be honest I liked that much better and it fits her personality. I think I am going to start using "product" to help it stand up more :)
