Flashback Friday!!

With Independence Day just around the corner, I thought I would post a couple of pictures from a past Fourth of July...7-4-07.

We lived in Jenks at the time and the Price cousins came for a little visit. Some things never change...it is still a near impossibility to get everyone (or anyone) to look at the camera! {This picture proves to me that Cash looks similar to Tytus...in fact he is pretty much the same size now that Tytus is in the picture, except a little BIGGER! The clothes T. has on are already too small for C....but anyway!}

I was just thinking earlier today about how a couple of summer's ago I had a baby on each hip, then I found this picture! I remember that weekend...Beau had just turned three months old and life was beginning to get a tiny bit easier. I knew if I could make it to the Fourth of July, then I WOULD SURVIVE having two babies just over a year apart in age. I think I had even gotten my hair colored that day...that's how I tend to celebrate a turning point in my life...a new season in life always warrants a new hair-do in my book!

Anyway...HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY! This weekend we plan to celebrate our freedom with friends at the lake. What an amazing freedom we do have...Freedom to live as we please, to raise a family as we please, to wear our hair as we please (that's important!), and to worship as we please! THANK GOD FOR THE INDEPENDENCE WE HAVE IN OUR COUNTRY AND THROUGH CHRIST!

Flashback Friday!!

In the spirit of summertime fun, I am posting a picture from Tytus' first summer. Parker and Paxton came to visit and teach baby T-man how to splash in the pool!! He's still a little wobbly at this point and wet behind the ears at swimming (pun intended)!!!

Eubanks Cousins!

It's that time of year again...HAY SEASON! Eubanks Equipment is sending out fliers for their upcoming Open House, so we got the kids together for a little photo shoot at the dealership. The boys adore their cousins (and so do Brock and I), and the girls are such a big help. I think they did the business proud! Anyone need a baler or mower?!?!

Zoo Trip!

We decided to take our annual zoo trip during Spring Break this year. Mother insisted that we all wear the same color (and of course she chose Orange) partly for fun, but mostly because we had SIX kiddos seven years old and under! Kandy and I were not eager to go along with this for fear of looking like the "dorky family wearing matching tie-dyed shirts at Disneyland" (her words, not mine). But we complied with Mom's request and were quickly thanking her when we arrived at the zoo to find that half of Oklahoma was there as well! We had a great time...all the kids represented our family and our Cowboys very well!!

We made quite an impression and were the inspiration of numerous "Go Pokes" and "Alright Cowboys"!

The Eubanks Boys

Pax and T-Man

The bears did not disappoint, in fact, all of the animals were out enjoying the day!

I love this picture

Priscilla may have been more concerned with pushing Cash than looking at the animals, but she had a good time doing it!



SNACK TIME!

This chimpanzee (or is it an orangutan? I don't know the difference) was hilarious...he definitely put on the show of the day.

Beau was being a bear...scratching his back on a tree

After filling his tummy, this is how Cash enjoyed the last part of his first trip to the zoo!
