"I just wanna DANCE"

Hope just wants to dance like her big sisters. After Hannah and Hadley got on their dance outfits, Hope started whining and went and got her tutu out. So I went ahead and changed her into her cute little outfit. She has on Hannah's very first pair of tap shoes. They are too big but she wears them everywhere.

Hope-22 months today!

Wow, only 2 more months until you turn 2!! What a big girl!! We're going to throw you the cutest little tutu party ever. Get it?? Tutu, as in 2-2!! Hot pink and zebra of course! We thank God everyday that he brought you into our family. We love you Hope!!!

I just got the proof for our store ad for the Norman Living Magazine, October Issue. Hope is of course our little model. Could she be any cuter? Funny thing is, she was crying most of the photo shoot for these pictures. I will have to put the other ad up from last month. It has all of the girls in it.

Off to the game....

Well Hadley and her daddy are off to the OSU game. All that ORANGE! Yuck! Can you tell my husband and I differ on our team preference. BOOMER SOONER BABY!! He is just praying that he'll get one of the girls to his side- OSU that is. Hey I'm a Cowboy fan..... as long as they are'nt playing against OU!! Hope they have a good time. She may last through the first half. GO Cowboys.

Little Miss Tigettes

Hannah & Hadley got to perform with the Broken Arrow Tigettes tonight at the high school football game. They attended the annual Tigette Pom Clinic this week. They had so much fun. We enjoyed getting to see them do a cute little dance before the game started. Hope wanted to be a part of it too so I dressed her up in her Tigers cheerleader outfit. She looked soooo cute. And of course she cheered her big sisters on with her own set of pom poms.

Bishop Kelly Football partner with Mended Little Hearts

Hope finally meets Gavin!

Hope with "Austin" her BK Buddy


Last night we joined our Mended Little Hearts of Tulsa group at the first Bishop Kelly football game. Mended Little Hearts and the Bishop Kelly football team have partnered together to bring awareness of Congenital Heart Disease to the community. Hope along with all the other heart kids each walked out on the field at half time with a player. Each childs name and age were announced as they walked on the field. I was so proud to have Hope be a part of this. She is the toughest little person I know... along side all of the other precious children she walked with. What an experience as well for the players. Their coaches as well as families must be so proud of them. MLH will continue to work with the BK football team through out the year. What a great group of young men. We look forward to it.

Labor Day Weekend

This is how I spent my holiday weekend.... changing the store around. We had to rearrange everything to get Halloween and Fall/Thanksgiving merchandise out. Although it was a lot of work, I enjoyed setting/arranging/decorating everything at our store-I miss it greatly. And of course spending some quality time with my mom- love you mom!!:) I keep telling mom we need to open "The Tulip Tree #2" here in BA. Maybe sometime in the future..... I will also put our store website on my links once we have it all updated.

While I was working at the store Scott took Hannah and Hadley to Lake Murray. My brother and his family were down there with all the kids for the holiday weekend. They all had a great time swimming, boating, and grilling out. They also celebrated my nieces' birthday- Happy Birthday Gracie!!

Hope got to spend the day with her Papa. She had a great time, I think he probably enjoyed it even more than she did. Wow!! Papa even had to change a couple poopy diapers..... now that's love!!

Hope everyone had a great Labor Day weekend.:)
