July thus far...

How is it July already?  Seriously?  Dom's birthday is in 2 months!! STOP STRESSING ME OUT!  HAHA!
As per usual...I had a mini party for the boys for the 4th.  Seriously, Party City loves when I walk in the door.  I never spend much but I buy the most tacky and obnoxious decorations and the kids love it....and I save it for next year!  


 Vince's favorite - cinnamon rolls with icing and Dom's favorite - fruit!  Done and Done.


 Love crazy selfies.
 I am so smitten with this kid its ridiculous.
 We went to Lewis Ginter Saturday morning.  The boys liked the hula hoops, Vince is actually really good at it.

 But the water area was where the action was...they had a blast!







 "Look Mom, it looks like I'm peeing" - and about 5 moms stared at me and said "Boys will be boys"...


We worked up an appetite so we tried out the new Bojangles for the first time! YUMMO!
 We hit up Kangaroo Jac's this morning and it wore Dom out!  He took a 3 hr nap!

 Lastly, we met Eli and Sara at the park for some fun this afternoon!  What a busy weekend!
 These 2 were so cute chasing the big boys around.  I'm so sad they won't be in daycare together anymore but that's ok, we'll still hang out all the time!
And that's it folks, all caught up on the last 2 months around here!  Hopefully I'll be back before another 2 months passes!

Ooops, more June!

My nephew, Matt is now a Deputy Sheriff in Chesterfield!  I went to his graduation last weekend! So proud!

 My other crazy nephew, Nathan!
 And the other crazy one, Michael!
 At Derrick's wedding (one of my interns) with some CVS or ex-CVS girls.
 Godfreys with some girlfriends! SO MUCH FUN!
 Comparing chests...Trudy wins.

 One of the queens!



June recap

These are probably out of order...my bad.  The important thing is there are lots of pics of some super cute boys!

I took the boys to Maymont one weekend...it was HOT, we were all cranky...the end.  I did get one decent pic of the 2 of them.  Those brown eyes...yikes!  
 Vince wanted a turn taking pics with my big camera.  They were mostly of the ground, some animals, some trees, a car...but he did get one of me and Dom!
 And just one of Dom!

 Oh my goodness, this cracked me up.  Dom is awesome on the potty now and one day I walked in the living room (where his portable potty is) and saw this.  I had to quickly and quietly go find my phone to take a picture!  SO FUNNY!
 Love this boy to the moon and back.
 And this one too!
 So one day, the boys were hiding from me in the bathroom. I could hear them giggling, just waiting for the right time to come out and scare me....boy did I surprise them!  This is what they found when they came out!  Mama Hulk.  They laughed so darn hard.
 How is my baby officially a first grader?  I threw them a mini breakfast party on the morning of the last day of school.  Have I mentioned that I love throwing them parties?
 Summer fun baskets!
 Last day of Kindergarten!

 First day and last day....not a huge difference, a little taller, a little wiser!
My BFF Ola came into town for a wedding....we got to hang out one night!  We had so much fun!
 Happy Father's Day to my awesome dad!  Love you dad!
 Using those new water guns on each other.
 Attempting to be a yes mom....got ice cream before dinner one night.


 We had a Vince/Mom day now that school is out.  We did putt putt, go Karts, bumper boats, and the arcade!  Whew, that was fun!



 This pic was BEFORE bumper boats....I had no idea how wet I'd get on those things.  The hair didn't look nearly this good afterwards!
Oh, and we shopped for a dress and jewelry for me to wear to a wedding....what a good helper!
 That smile....slays me.
 A trip to the park and feeding/stalking the ducks.
 Talk about sweet...Vince reading to Dom before bed.  Love them!
