Yesterday was Jackson's last day of school and the temperatures were a sure sign of what summer will be like in Oklahoma. Hot and sticky! We celebrated the last day of school with 50 cent corn dogs from Sonic (that Jackson didn't eat). A nap was not happening when there was a water hose and sunshine waiting outside. Jackson officially kicked off summer with mud puddles, popsicles and a much-needed haircut! Can I just say how happy I am that it's summer? Hair cuts are a breeze when I can Continue Reading

Happy Birthday Daddy!
Today we celebrate the best Hubby and Daddy we could ask for!
