Noelle went to Ananya’s 4th birthday party this weekend at Chelsea’s Tearoom and Boutique.  We’ll post pics of the party soon!

One more good-bye kiss…

As most of you know, Noelle is a chatter box.  Last night, we were over at Jon and Heather’s and Heather taught her how to say “happy.”  She said it over and over.  It was really cute!  Jon taught her how to sign “Beautiful girl.”  It was so sweet to see her so engaged with Jon.  They are still painting this week, but Heather is moving in this weekend.  We can’t wait for them to be our neighbors!!!  Thanks for the tutorials guys!

Drew and Noelle had so much fun getting messy creating their first masterpiece together.

When the Eberts were here last month we made an apron for Poppa Doc for Father’s Day. 

Peek-a-boo – Drew is such a cute little flirt!

Our little Picasso!

Noelle’s directing Drew for their next pose.

I love how they are both so interested in each other.

Noelle holding Drew’s hand.

Our finished product.  Poppa Doc doesn’t want to wear it because it is too special.  Can you tell whose feet and hands are whose?  Crazy considering Drew is 7 months younger than Noelle!

Noelle proofreading her card for Dad!

“My dad is the best!”

Here ya go, “My”ke!  I LOVE YOU DADDY!!!

Noelle LOVES the water! 

Fishy Bekah swims up to say hello!

Noelle decided to pop a squat – she was splashing and having the time of her life – we love watching her in the water.

Go for it – get it Elley…

Mrs. Sharon and Noelle were trying on sunglasses while Mike, Bekah, Toria, and Mo were having a synchronized swimming contest (I wish we had gotten that on video).  Mike and Bekah’s “metamorphosis of a butterfly” takes home the prize in my book – you guys were really creative!

Noelle’s got the sunglasses thing down – well, almost…

Thanks for such a great night guys!  We had so much fun and the wraps (note: all the lettuce in the wraps was from the Prince garden) were a huge hit with the Ponds!!!

Thanks Ashley and Shawn for coming over for dinner – I love my gumball machine – you guys are the best!

Thank you Phil and Stephanie for giving your time and energy to us while you were in Ft. Worth this weekend.  We loved your company, your fellowship, your mentorship, your rhythm of spirituality.  You are a breath of fresh air in our lives, and we are grateful to know such heavenly people.

Noelle loved having the Shepherds stay with us last weekend.  She begged Phil to let her be his date to the wedding they were attending and even stole the misses purse.  Our girl has an infatuation with purses!
