Wiseman Family Endless Summer Nights

We tried to start something this summer but it didn't really take off! It's "Wiseman Family Endless Summer Nights" and was to be each Thursday night where we would invite some friends over and hang out in the evening at our neighborhood pool. I thought of this because we never swim at night and I thought it would be fun to take advantage of the ability to swim at night and also invite friends over to hang out with. We planned to do it every Thursday night but since our first night on June 13 we have not done it again! Mainly because we were gone or it was the 4th of July or it was raining, but we are hopeful to finish the summer with a few more Wiseman Family Endless Summer Nights! 

The one night we did it we invited our friends over who we've known since before the girls were born. They have an 8th and 5th grader and our girls have always gotten along together so well and really enjoy hanging out. Ross and I get along very well with their parents, so it was a great time together! We had dinner together and then lounged around in the pool. It was a fun night!

50s Girl Waterer!

Molly is so much fun! She's going to be in 4th grade and as much as she wants to act older, she still wants to act younger! One day she put on the poodle skirt my Gramma Ward made for Stephanie and me when we were little and played around in it for a while. I needed her to water the flowers, so naturally she watered the flowers in her skirt! (She's not a fan of me taking pictures of her.)

Father's Day 2024

We had a nice Father's Day this year. My parents took us to dinner at a steak restaurant they really like in Harrison, AR, on Saturday and on Sunday we went to church and hung out at home. Nothing too eventful, but it was a nice time together!

Graduation Celebration!

Lucy graduated from elementary school in May so I had to make a little celebration for her! I used some old graduation decorations I'd gotten from my Mom when the girls graduated from preschool and made a nice little place setting for her. I used Molly's manequin she got for Christmas and put my graduate school graduation robe on it with a picture of Lucy. I think Lucy was surprised to see it and deep down I think she really liked and appreciated it! It was fun to put together and I felt like it was totally something my mom would have put together for me when I was little!

Mother's Day 2024

I had a nice Mother's Day this year! We went to church and the girls were nice to dress a little nicer for church and take pictures with me, which I love! Ross made a good breakfast after church and then my parents came over for dinner that night. It was a good day!

Rocky Mountain National Park

We went on vacation last month to Colorado and had a great time! We drove out Saturday and stayed in Colorado Springs for two nights and then drove to Granby and stayed there for three nights. We went to Garden of the Gods, the Royal Gorge, Pike's Peak, Rocky Mountain National Park, Georgetown for a train ride, and Estes Park. We all really loved the scenery! Colorado is so pretty and the weather was perfect each day! The altitude bothered us a little, especially at the top of Pike's Peak (14,000ft!) but we survived. Here are some pics from our drives through Rocky Mountain National Park.
