Tara's Rambling Place

Like so many people say, if you don't write things down, you'll forget them. I have some journaling I've done for both of the girls, but I have been less than consistant with entries. Here's my place to make notes, remember funny things, and be myself!

Long time, no post

Well, we really haven't done all that much since I posted last.....even though it's been forever. We did take a short day trip to Hot Springs, and all but this first picture are from that day.






We didn't have much of a July 4th because Jeremy was out of town, but the girls at least posed for a quick shot in their red, white & blue outfits!








A cute shot of Maddie getting a piggyback ride from her favorite guy :0)







We took the girls on one of those duck-boat tours of Lake Hamilton. They both loved it and Mommy & Daddy enjoyed the first day of weather that didn't consist of temperatures over 100! It was a nice day, especially once we got out onto the water.









Getting these two girls to stand still, smile, no thumbs in mouth, no hair being twirled.........THAT's a big job!






Nothing much to report, but I knew if I didn't post that some of my family might drag me to the computer by my heels!

Papaw's Day

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAPAW!


Week at Mom's


Jeremy was scheduled to work out of town all this week, so the girls and I decided to head to Mom's. He's actually getting to fill in for an account manager who's on vacation, so he's definitely getting some hands-on training!

I worked in the office on Monday and Tuesday and plan to be there again tomorrow. The girls have spent time with all of their grandparents this week and are spoiled R-O-T-T-E-N!!!

Riley & Maddie got to spend a couple of days with their cousins from Benton this week. Holly, Riley, Jamie & Maddie had a great time! I'm sure their Papaw and Nana are exhausted, though!

After Maddie and I went to bed the other night, Riley helped Memaw ice a cake......and looks like she helped herself to licking the beaters!

Weekend update

We had a good restful weekend here in Sherwood! We've been in the pool every day and it just wears us out, but Jeremy & I can definitely use the exercise and a little sun is good for us all!




On Saturday, I got out to find a church to attend on Sunday morning. It appears there's only one Church of Christ in Sherwood. The Sylvan Hills Church of Christ is only about 5 minutes away from our apartment and really seemed alot like our home church, the Valley View Church of Christ. It was about the same size, averaging around 460 people between their early and regular service. Next Sunday, we'll try to go to the early service. Most of the people at the 2nd service were older and we felt a little out of place.

After we got home, Jeremy & I were talking about what we thought about the church. He said to me, "Tara, you're not going to find a 'Christina' at every church." That made me a little sad :(
***Potty training update***
Maddie's been out of a diaper (except for naps and nighttime) since Friday and has only had 2 peepee accidents!!!


A couple of pics from the weekend! The girls love playing on our balcony/patio.
