Ava and Tucker

Ava's friend Tuck was over playing when they decided they wanted to go over to his house. I thought they were going to walk through the backyard, but realized he had brought over his powerwheels 4-wheeler and they were going to ride it home. I let them go, while I followed them in the car. Thought they were cute so I grabbed a few pics.
Surprised I was following them.

Showing off their skills.

Tucker, being a gentleman, let Ava drive for a bit.

1st day of Kindergarten

This little girl had the hardest time being patient while sisters went to school a week earlier. When her big day came she could not have been more excited.
Waiting for the schoolbus.

With neighborhood buddies.

Getting off the bus at school.

When she got off the bus after school my friend Kelly asked her how her first day went, and in usual Ava fashion, she shrugged her shoulders while letting out a big sigh and said, "it was alright, I guess I'll go back tomorrow."

First Day of School

Anna Jane, ready to start another year of school.

Lainie Grace is too.

Anna with BFF Madee

Off the bus...yes, I followed them to school, I do every year.

Apparently she's too cool for me now. At least Lainie wanted me there.

Adyn Terrance Aldridge

We have a new baby...well not really. Paul's brother and wife have a new baby, but I get to steal him away once a week while they are working. Loni was the miniest prego and I would have sworn she was only carrying a 6 pounder, but on 8.8.11 around noonish this squishy, round 8 pound 11 ouncer popped out. Isn't he the sweetest? Mommy and daddy couldn't be more proud. Congrats Terry and Loni, he is adorable.

Paul holding his new nephew for the first time.

My kids are very impressed with their new cousin.

Proud papa. (Can you tell he hasn't slept much? Nice bed head Terry. hee hee)

My Man in Action

One of Paul's co workers snagged a few pics on his phone of their latest fire @ a Jack in the Box. It's so fun getting a peek at my man in action, just wish I could see his face.

Paul in the basket.


Coming off the ladder. (He's the one on top.)

Guess they won't be selling any jumbo jacks anytime soon.
