Southern Mama of Two

I am pumped for a three day weekend!! I have lots of things planned from opening day of dove season, college football, peanut boil, and a wedding shower!! Today I am sharing what we have been up to lately.   Last Saturday we had a birthday at our house to celebrate Allie Brooke turning 4. We invited our close family and had a great time. I am so thankful that my girls love and accept AB as much as they do.  Sunday afternoon we rode the tractor with Walter while he was baling hay. Let me tell ya'll, Ryleigh is a natural at driving a tractor. It took her 2.5 seconds and she was baling hay on her own! Bk and I rode about 2 rounds then we let Walt and Ry handle it.   We have had some pretty weather so we have been spending the afternoons outside jumping on the trampoline.   We made homemade pizzas for supper Tuesday. Brynlee made a cheese pizza and Ryleigh made a pepperoni pizza. Walter and I made a bbq pulled pork pizza and it was sooo good.   I

Happy Friday!! I don't know about ya'll but I am SO happy it is finally the weekend. I feel like this has been the longest week e.v.e.r. We are having a birthday party for my step daughter tomorrow morning, followed by another birthday party, then a wedding shower tomorrow night. (talk about running crazy) I'm just sharing what we've been up to lately!   Brynlee started ballet last week. Look how grown up my girl is! I hope she loves dance as much as I did when I was little. Because her class is during the day my mom has to take her, which makes me a little sad. Ryleigh started baton last week, but of course she wouldn't let me take a picture #grownup.   I snapped this picture one afternoon after our walk. I just thought it was so cute because for like 2.5 seconds they weren't fighting!!   While Ryleigh was in baton last week, Brynlee played in the splash pad by the dance class. Right as we were leaving the train came by. Look at the excitem

Happy Monday! I am sure it was just Friday, where did the weekend go?? We stayed busy this weekend with 3 birthday parties, a sleep over, and helping Walt cut corn. As soon as I got off work Friday I picked the girls up and took them to birthday #1, which was a swimming party. My nephews and niece were there so the girls played with them.   Saturday morning I worked on a few shirt orders while the girls played.   After lunch we rode the combine for a little while with Walt before we headed to birthday #2.   The girls had fun at the birthday party and my nephews came home for a sleep over with us. We grilled steak and sausage for supper. After we ate we made smores, what kid doesn't like smores??   Sunday morning I cooked homemade French toast and eggs for breakfast. I snapped this picture once everyone was done because I thought it was so funny. Everyone else was done with breakfast and I had only taken one bite. Life of a mom?!  

Linking up with Erika   Happy Friday! I feel like this has been the longest week ever, so I'm very happy to see the weekend! Ryleigh and Brynlee started school this past Wednesday. Brynlee woke up with her eye swollen shut, poor baby! I ended up taking her to the doctor and she has a bad ear infection.     funny faces for the first day of school!!     love these girls so much!   The rest of the week didn't go as smooth as the first day. This morning Brynlee was in tears because she didn't want to go to school. I had to leaving her crying for me, and I cried the whole way to work!   Harvest time is in full force at West Farms. The cotton is starting to come out of the boll, and Walt is cutting corn. The girls and I met up with Walt after school to ride the combine. Walt let both of the girls drive the combine, which they thought was the coolest thing ever!     I decorated the girls food containers and w
