When Mom's away....and Memorial Day





Fishing with Boots


Making gluten-free cupcakes











Water balloon fight with Pap


I found her the perfect purse at a gas
station- it has Dora on it!!



































Mandy and Will fought over how to pronounce
these orangutans!! Thanks to Diego, Will was right!











This past weekend, I went to Memphis with Marcie and Mom wedding dress shopping for Marcie's fast approaching wedding in October! We had so much fun - it was fun for us to actually get to visit and talk without the little people around! Rhyne was in charge of keeping all three kids BY HIMSELF!! This is the first time he has had this responsibility for more than 5 hours!! He had to be in charge for 48 hours!! Thankfully, we have an Aunt Mandy who is always willing to help out! She came on Saturday to take the kids to the zoo so Rhyne could have a breather! She documented the zoo trip with pics (and wrote down some details). Rhyne brought the kids to me on Sunday so we could spend Memorial Day with my Dad's family. It was a busy weekend, but fun and full of memories! By the way, Marcie found the PERFECT dress!!
Mandy's commentary about the zoo:
*rhyne had his doubts but i proved him wrong!!!
things worth mentioning:
*one should not leave a stroller on a downward slope! thankfully the kids weren't in it and i am pretty speedy!
*one should not ask a child in public where other people can hear you... "hey, who is the boss: me or you?" if you do not want to be humbled! will loudly said "ME!" all the parents got a good laugh at my expense!
*we were all strutting along and all of a sudden this sprinkler came out of no where and we got soaked...those maintenance men could not stop laughing. we were soaked and screaming and laughing!
*i got us a free ride on the carousel...i like to think it is because i am so hot and young-looking but the guy probably just felt sorry for me!
*totally hot dad commented on how i had my hands full and i said that is such an understatement and then he said well you look like a fun mom. and i was like oh no...i'm not their mother...i'm the aunt!
*it is possible to put 3 kids in a 2-kid stroller....ap and will in the real seats and then ben propped up on the front...and yes, i drove it way too fast! i was like...okay, if y'all fall off it is not my fault...hang on! they just kept screaming faster, faster!
*there aren't really any bathrooms that work at the jackson zoo.
*i should have paid closer attention to rhyne on how to collapse the stroller. thankfully it fit in the back of the exploder without collapsing it! (rhyne didn't want me to take his truck...i was like "you trust me with your three children but not your truck!"
*i will say this....i cannot imagine being YOU! you are a wonderful mother. those kids are so blessed to have you!

thanks to both you and rhyne for trusting me with your children. i am so blessed!!! (we love aunt Mandy too)
