Weekend @ Bartlesville

We spent the weekend with my grandparents in Bartlesville. We had a very nice time, and I think they enjoyed our stay as well - especially their great granddaughter! :)

playing in the sand with Meme & Papa and Alex

again... my camera battery was low, these pictures are from my aunt

cookout!

we took Hadlee to Kiddie Park. she rode the carousel and train, the turtles,...

and the cars. by herself!! Didn't think she'd do it.

She loved it! I think she would've ridden more, if we would have tried! :)

We took Hadlee to the zoo yesterday. Here's some pics of our little girl enjoying her day...especially the carousel! :)

love this! :)

here's proof that mommy WAS there too. :)

such a big day! :)

Our House

I have some pics of the living room and our bedroom. The rest of the house will come later. :) And my bathroom floors are "being redone" by my awesome husband. lol One's done, and the other is halfway there. So I'll wait to get the new floor in the pics. We're "all done" now, except the kitchen. Wow, it needs lots of work - maybe we can start it next week....right, baby??

Ok, I just realized that some of my pictures have vanished from my draft, and I'm in OKC. But here's THREE pics of our house. lol

Hadlee @ Random

Here's some highlights (a.k.a. "when Mommy remembered the camera" lol) from Hadlee's last few weeks. Keep in mind, she's very busy and doesn't have much time for looking at cameras!








bathtime!





















again...





we took a little trip to Oklahoma City a week ago Monday/Tuesday. Here's Daddy & Hadlee thoroughly immersed in a game of something. (Hadlee's also working on some pizza)

We spent Tuesday with Darrell, Lizzy, and their family. Hadlee and Heath seemed to hit it off. :)

maybe too good, Daddy?? ;)

enjoying the park with Daddy

We got to spend a little time with Madi and her mommy, Natalie.

story time with Meme (great-grandma)

The other night after supper, Hadlee went to her chair, and wanted up. She doesn't like to sit in it, but Timothy put her in. She pointed to the pantry, and said "Chee-tos! Chee-tos!" in a very pathetic voice. (sounded like she'd die if she didn't get them.) Of course, we were out, but, of course, Daddy couldn't stand it. So....we went to town....just for cheetos! Here she is happily enjoying her "Chee-tos" What this Daddy won't do for those brown eyes!! :)

Easter Sunday

The Saturday before Easter Sunday, our family passed out about 75 red roses with invitations to church. We bought 100 and thought they would go really quickly. But being in such a rural community, we spent hours just passing out the 75.

Timothy and J.R.















Hadlee hunting Easter eggs. Due to the rain, we had the hunt in the Sunday School rooms.





Darrin hunting eggs also






















We went to my Uncle Kent's house, and spent Easter afternoon with his family

Catchin' up...

Okay, since it's been over a month since I posted, and everybody has totally given up on me...lol...


Here's a start at catching up. I could REALLY keep you for a VERY long time, and probably bore you to sleep with everything that has happened in the last month, but I'll spare you...and me! :)




This blog is basically about Hadlee, but I am going to post some "progress" shots of our house.



hallway (before carpet...obviously!)





this is what we had to work with - since we moved all our stuff into the trailer before it was moved. so fun! :)

Hadlee's room -painted and ready for carpet

Timothy's idea for Hadlee's ceiling

her closet doors

Timothy working on our bedroom

another pic of the mess we had :)

our only source of heat before the electricity and propane were hooked up (we actually enjoyed it - especially Timothy! lol)

I've got to post a couple of Hadlee since this is "her" blog. :) Our little "artist" at work. She had just finished painting the paneling and a window in the living room, and we decided to give her a "safe spot" to work.

excuse the hair - this is what happens when you do a ponytail on a regular basis. :)

her first nap in her new room.
