Summer fun...

I have to admit I am VERY ready for Fall! The heat and I have not gotten along very well this summer. Has it been that much hotter? Or is it me? Okay, you don't have to answer that. But as summer comes to an end, I thought I would share with you some pictures of summer fun around Honey and Bud's house! Our sweet little boys so enjoy the backyard! Between the sandbox, playing ball, the wading pool (which by the way has quickly become to small!) and popsicles...life is good! We are so blessed! We love time with these three little guys! They are so sweet, full of energy and keep us in stitches with their funny words, expressions and antics! As much fun as it has been, we are ready for cooler weather and the arrival of our 4th grandchild! David and Ashley's baby is due in about 2 1/2 weeks!!! YAHOO!!!! Emma Grace Snow...we are so ready to meet you! The other day when the boys were here, we were talking to them about Emma. Here are some of their thoughts:
How much do you think Emma will weigh?
Clay- as much as Will (wow...Will is 18 months old and a big boy, so we hope this prediction is off a bit!)
How long do you think Emma will be?
Owen-37 inches!
What will Emma's middle name be?
Owen- "Her name will be Emma Austin Snow. (Austin is Owen's middle name of course!)
What should David and Ashley do with Emma?
Owen- Just rock and love her!
Who will Emma look like?
Owen- Aunt Allie (Ashley)
Clay-David's Daddy!
What will you do with Emma?
Clay- Teach her to crawl
Owen-Teach her to walk and read her the book "Joe Cinders" (Owen's very favorite book!
I am pretty sure some of these predictions are off but one thing is for sure, Emma will be loved by these three little guys and they are excited! We cannot wait to add a girl to our wonderful little boy mix! We are so excited. Zach and Meg opened our world up when they blessed us with grandkids...and we can't wait to love on David and Ashley's as well! I have thought a lot about my Mom lately. She was a wonderful Nanny to her grandkids...3 boys and 1 girl! Now, it is our turn to enjoy the same...3 boys and 1 girl! We are very excited!! Okay, now on to some pictures!

all 4 of those grandkids are blessed beyond measure! i was just thinking of your sweet mom recently too. while going through a tub of things from my parents' house, i came across many, many encouraging notes she wrote to me when i was in middle school. such a special woman! you are carrying on her legacy for sure. i know she would be so proud of you as a grandma.
