Sunday Snapshot {twirling}

It was a beautiful weekend...

We spent time with family...

And friends.

We played in the pool...

went for walks...

and blew bubbles until we were dizzy!


This girl is ready for summer!
And begin...

Sunday Snapshot {the beach}

Saturday was going to be beautiful, so we packed up and headed for the beach...
The sun was bright and the air was warm...


And the waves put on quite a show...

We played in the sand...

And ran through the surf.


We built our own version of the Great Wall...


And plum tuckered ourselves out!  What a great way to spend the day!

Marvelous Monday {the water pump}

A week ago Monday, it was hot...hot, hot, hot.

So, we packed some snacks and headed for the playground

And we ran into our old friend, the water pump!

Which was just what we needed...

To cool our feet...

To chill out...

To have some fun...

And just be silly.

Ready...

Set...

Go!

Mission accomplished...

A happy, exhausted little girl!

Sunday Snapshot {the wagon}





 


 

It is days like this that make me just want to pause to catch my breath (and my camera)!
Where was she going with that big wagon?
What will she put in it when she gets there?
What's going through that little mind that only 16 months ago lived on the other side of the world?
How did I get so lucky to have this little person in my life?
Just thinking about it takes my breath away.

Sunday Snapshot {Easter Highlights}

Cadie wanted a Minnie Mouse Easter basket desperately.  

It has been all she's talked about for 4 weeks since she saw it in the store.
  
I couldn't make any promises. 

Thankfully, I found the last one!

She was so excited to find her Minnie Mouse basket on Easter Morning, filled with all her favorite things...Chocolate, stickers, stamps, jelly beans, and one snappy pair of Minnie Mouse sneakers!

She was a Happy Girl!

P.S. I'm just a Point and Shoot Camera Girl, linking up to NiHaoYall just for fun!  Enjoy!
