~Playing With the Dogs~

This is Map (inside joke). 

This is Map,

Map likes his hat,

When dog got his hat,

He was a very angry cat.

(OK, not really a cat, but it rhymed)

This is Orea attacking Map.

Oreo chasing Child.

Good, Oreo, good dog!

BAD DOG!  No, it really didn't hurt that bad. . .

Remember when I said Map was an angry cat when the dog got his hat?

Picture proof. 

Oreo took Map's hat & ran all around the yard.

Twirls trying to retrieve hat. . .

Not sure where the hat is, but Oreo & Map are wrestling. . .

There's the hat!  Child holding the hat away from Oreo, while Map is on the ground.

Child keeping the hat away from Oreo.

Eventually the hat was returned, however when we returned to my house, a half an hour game of keep-away began.  It consisted of keeping Map's hat & shoe away from him.  He was a very good sport about it & we all ran around.  I have a feeling that 4 against 1 isn't very fair, but no one really seemed to mind.

~Yes, We All Hang Out~

Well, since my mom & sibs left Ohio on the 2nd of May,  I have been spending time with the neighbors across the street.  Even though I can be crazy at times (haha) we all still hang out!

Me & Twirls. . .

Hanging out in the sun (while ND is supposed to get 6-8 inches of snow. HAHAHA!)

Smiles from Twirls & me. . .

Me & Awesome-Dude!

After playing some basketball with Awesome-Dude & Twirls, we . . .

. . .caught butterflies!  *ok, not really - there weren't any around, but it was fun jumping*! lol

. . .Twirls spun Awesome-Dude on the swing. . .

AAAAHHHH!!!!

Hanging out a few days before - without our swimsuits. . .

Me & Twirls

Twirls & Awesome-Dude wanna say hi to all my family!

~A Cousin-Filled Weekend~

Well, Mom & the sibs left Pickerington on Friday & we all (Mom & the sibs, Gma & Gpa Jackson, & me) went up to Dayton to spend some time with our cousins.  I spent alot of time with the youngest of the bunch (twins) 'Little Man' & 'Princess'.

Me & Princess

Me & Little Man.  I love his red hair!

Princess wanted to put my necklace on & take a picture. I couldn't get her to take that sucker out of her mouth!  =P

He's so cute!  =)

We went to my oldest younger cousin's soccer game. . .

Then we all stayed the night. 

Me, Princess, & Gma Jackson

Upstairs was Spider Man hanging from a vent. . .

Spider Man to the rescue!!! =D

I asked Princess to 'smile big' & this is what I got!  Too cute!

That's a smile!

She just loves smiling in different ways! lol!

We had a great time spending time with our cousins. There are four of them in that bunch, I spent all my time with the two youngests (twins) Little Man & Princess.

~Friends Hanging Out~

Mrs. Miller (and Mr. Miller) graciously opened their home to several kids last night.  Since Zack, Kenzie, and I weren't going to be around for the next teen/tween night that our co-op was having, Mrs. Miller told us to make a guest list of who we would like to see and spend the night (the littler kids have a sleep over) with.  We made our guest list, and Mrs. Miller distributed the invitations.  Most everyone was able to make it.  I had a great time spending time with everyone!

Holly and I...

Cynthia and I...

Lindy was so gracious to take this picture, and it is apparentally what an 8 year old sees when they look at Cynthia and me.  Yes, Cynthia is short (and we all tease her lovingly about it) and I am kinda tall...  I should have squatted for this picture. lol

Alyssa and I...

We thought this picture looked cool!

Jenna and I...

Spazzing out.  lol

Cynthia and Alyssa... 

Don't they look lovely? lol!

Katie...

Kyle and I...

Poor Kyle wanted to be taller than me when we came back for a visit.  He's only like an inch and a half/two inches shorter than me.  I think he said he's 5' 6".  He'll catch up.  He's also a year and a half or so younger than me. 

"DAB DON'T RUB!" 

It's a long story, but for us who know it, it's HILARIOUS!

We had an awesome time seeing everyone and spending time with them!

=)

~Co-op Awesome-ness!~

We got to go to our previous co-op (Learning Tree) and got to spend time with friends!  We went to the showcase at 7 o'clock and afterwards, most of us girls went outside to get away from all the people!  It was really hot in the building, and we wanted to hang out...

You looking at us?

Most of us girls.  About 4 or 5 aren't in the picture...

Then I had a Tana Take-Over.  She took my camera to take some pictures.......

Great pictures, Tana!  lol...

We all had fun hanging out...

Luv ya guys!
