My Girl!

The kids went out this morning and watered my flowers for me. It turned out to be a very muddy chore, so we came in, took baths, and this is what Cailey picked out to wear for the day. As I was drying her hair, she was putting on lip gloss and she was all for getting her picture made. That's a rare moment, so I HAD to take her up on it! She did great!

Ice Cold Lemonade!!!

Canton loves to make money! He agreed to not watch TV for 7 days for $20. He always begs me to have a lemonade stand, so today I gave in. It helped that it was the hottest day in 2 years too. I should have done it earlier in the day, but when he asked me again after dinner I finally gave in. So we went out for about 45 minutes and he made $4.50! He's already asking when we can do it again- I'm thinking for sure at our garage sale next weekend!!

Who wouldn't want to buy lemonade from these cute kiddos???


I think Callon drank more than we sold, but that's the fun of having your own stand!

It's Time!

It's time for our next step! We, in no way, dislike our house! However, we need more space and we would like to live closer to our church building and our church family! So, our ADORABLE home needs a new owner. If you, or someone you know may be interested, please let them know and I would be happy to answer any questions! Please spread the word and please pray for us!


A perfect starter home

If Only....

I read Christi's blog the other day and I started feeling guilty. I try to use everyday opportunity's all the time to teach my kids. But, when I read her blog and saw that she has her boys do worksheets everyday to keep their minds active, I thought there was no excuse for me not doing that too. My kids love to "do school work". I have tons of resources- worksheets, workbooks, flashcards, etc. We have had a lot of fun this summer, but now, along with the fun, we are going to use our brains some, too. The good thing is, my kids loved it and that was fun for them too! Thanks Christy for the encouragement!!
Proctor kids: welcome to our new daily routine!!!





After we worked our brains, we worked our bodies. We have a Get Fit video for kids.




Then we had a healthy snack- apples and gatorade!!
ok, now its play time!!!!
