Some things never change

I consider myself a really blessed girl! I have a great husband, great family and great FRIENDS. Most of my really close friends I've known since elementary school. I made a few really great friends in college, a few in high school, but most of them started back in elementary school and have just stuck around all these years.

I feel it is a rare to have stayed in touch with so many of my friends, but I know they are one of a kind type of people so I try not to let them get out of my sight, or at least out of my cell phone range.

I got together with a few of my really good friends today. When we get together it is easy to see just how different we are. We all have kids, live in different parts of the nation and have aged! But when we get to talking, I realize that some things never change.

I really just thought this picture was so cute. I think the added help didn't make leading the horse any easier, but it made for an adorable picture.

Lucy's first time on a horse. She did great!

Lincoln Priddis, up from a nap and on a horse. Not sure he was fully awake yet.

And of course my sweet nephew Brock who just LOVES riding the horse

Ketcher wasn't too sure about the horse; but when the horse left with other people on it he didn't like that either. He did end up getting on the horse but again wasn't too sure about it.

We can't forget about this handsome little guy. Garret's first time on a horse too.

Saffire, Amy and I have been friends since Elementary school, it was an off and on thing. But by middle school we were inseparable. Ashley Harris was always right there with us but sadly we couldn't quite convince her to come from Arkansas.....hopefully next time.

(the boys crack me up in this picture....I swear they are all happy fellas)

Group picture, minus the Bailey girls who, sadly, had to leave early.

Even with babies in the mix, some things never change.

3 Men and a Little Lady

There are 3 males in my life; Ace, Garret and.......Sully. Sully and I really haven't spent much time together the past few months. A quick hi here and there was really most of our time spent together. Garret and I basically went into hibernation this past winter. But now that the weather is warming up we are all getting reacquainted.

The 3 fellas and I went on a walk to Road Side Park. Sully loves this park! We took him quite a bit last summer. He really loves this place because there is a big water hole where he can jump in and out to his hearts content. We throw sticks in the water and he always brings back a stick, but just sometimes he brings back the same stick.

Garret and Sully really don't pay too much attention to each other. But today Garret was completely fascinated with our crazy dog. And when Sully bounced by the stroller he would lick the tiny feet hanging out. Im excited to see the relationship these two have in the future. Hopefully Sully will be out of his tackling stage by the time Garret starts walking.

It really was a great day for 3 men and a little lady.

Bringing back sticks

This was not the stick we threw but this stick was much cooler

My sweet bald husband who should be wearing a hat

The smart ones that did wear hats

All tuckered out after watching Sully being Sully
