Summer!

Keira is enjoying summer in the neighborhood! Here is a picture of her in the pool on one of the first days of summer.

Our friends put up their new water slide on the lawn and Keira had a ball! She was climbing up the slide all by herself and kept up with the bigger kids! Great way to stay cool when it is still in the 90's at 6:30pm.




This is our friend Ethan going down the big slide and it was pretty high for these little ones!

Tulsa, Oklahoma Zoo

We took a family trip to the Tulsa, OK Zoo on Wednesday, June 16th. It was HOT!!! It topped out at 94 degrees and we just beat some nasty thunderstorms on our way home. Keira loved the zoo and seeing all of the animals. She did really well despite the heat and we will have to make it back there when Mom isn't 9 months pregnant and it isn't so hot!

Another great Holiday at the Morrissey's in New Jersey. Keira had a great second Christmas and loved being around all of the family and playing with MacKenzie and Lucy. Santa found his way to Grammy and Grandpa's a second time and brought lots of fun gifts.

Christmas at Home






We celebrated Christmas a couple days early at home in Arkansas. Santa didn't mind making the early visit for a very good little girl! She got her pink retro kitchen, a baby doll bed, a fishing pole, some veggies and food for her kitchen, as well as, some pots and pans and a sandwich making kit.

Thanksgiving 2009


What a great way to spend time with the family and on Thanksgiving, but on a farm! Uncle Jim and Auntie Bernadette's farm at "The Forks" outside of Charlotte, North Carolina. We saw beautiful horses, rode around on gators, went shooting and ate like champions! All while visiting with friends and family.

Check out my Uncles farm in NC. www.forkstables.com
