Molly turns 1!!!!

At 9:14 AM on 9/14/10 Molly Claire Flynt came to join our crazy family. I am not sure what we would do without her. She is such a great addition to our family. As crazy as it is sometimes, she actually makes our family complete. It is hard to believe that we are celebrating our last 1 year old today!!! This past year has been amazing, and we know it wouldn't have been the same without this little lady. Although, we are not sure who she looks like yet, she sure does take features from all of our kids. She is definitely gonna be her own little person. So, please join me today in celebrating Molly!!

Minutes old....I think she is still deciding if she likes us or not. Ha


The day we left...she was destined to be a razorback fan!!!


And today!!! She is rotten, but I love this rotten little girl!!!

Molly's Big Party!!!

We had a little tailgating fun this past weekend while we celebrated our sweet Molly turning 1!!! It is hard to believe that this year has flown by and we already have a little 1 year old! It was a lot of fun with our friends and family here to celebrate sweet Molly. Thanks to all of them that made this day such a blessing for us and Molly!

I made this tutu for one of the girls for them to wear on their 1st birthday, I am so glad we got to pass it down and Molly got to wear it.


We started the party outside, then it started to sprinkle so we moved it all inside and then of course it stopped...just our luck. Anyway, the Razorback cupcakes were great, and I think Molly liked her cake.


She LOVES the slide, so Papa Webb was taking her for a ride



Such a sweet girl!



I just love this picture, Nana Flynt and her dad, Grandpa Frederick



She wants it can't you tell...


LOVED it...thanks Jessica



Happy birthday sweet Molly!

"Knee deep in the water somewhere"

Don't want to overwhelm you all with pictures, but we just returned from the beach last week. What do you get with 9 kids (5 and under) and 7 adults....FUN!!! It was a great time had by all (at least I think we did). We went to Seagrove beach and stayed at a house there right on the beach and the lake, very kid friendly. And when we weren't at the beach we were riding bikes.

Carter LOVED the beach!!! This was the first time he was there (that he actually remembers anyway). And this is his birthday...he turned 5!



I just love Chris's face here...


One of my favorite pics, so adorable




These 2 loved it...


And just like 2 years ago, Chris made a giant turtle






Brady, Holt and Kennedy are definitely a crew...they would start at top and run into the ocean and laugh the whole time.


Our 2 beach babes...


Trying to build a sand castle


Bailey getting some nana loving


Girls night out...dinner at Backporch and The Help, it was so fun


These 2 are adorable.


Love this pic...



I really was at the beach...


These 2 are exactly in sync...crazy




Lake part, the kids loved playing in it








New School...

Love this picture...

The girls started a new PDO program this year, and so far they are loving it!!! This was on their first day, and I think the best part for them is they get to ride to school with daddy!!!

Our first of many....Gravette Lion

Our first little...Gravette Lion!!!! Carter started preschool today at Gravette. Since his birthday is after the cutoff he wasn't able to start kindergarten this year (probably better for me). He was accepted into the preschool program at Gravette though, which to me is/was just a hard as it will be next year in kindergarten. He will go everyday and all day, and I think he is very ready for it. He did so great, he walked right in and didn't even say bye to me. Such a big boy, and I was so not ready for him to be that independent. He said his first day was great, and I think he will really enjoy it. His teacher actually went to school with me, so it is nice that I actually know her and know what a great person she it. I can't wait to share his adventures this year with all of you.



Kennedy wanted to squat down with him...so funny. She is not going to know what to do without him here everyday.

T-Rex and Rain...

Rain could not damper our little guy from enjoying his birthday party. After weeks of no rain and temperatures over 100, we thought a pool party would be the best option for Carter. Little did we know it would come a big storm!!! But Carter still had a great time at his party we think, and even got to swim at the end...

Our friend Jessica made this cake, I thought she did a good job with a VERY particular kid that we had making the decision...


Since it was raining we moved the party into the carport at Nana Flynt's house. And this is what the kids proceeded to do, I mean they don't care that they were getting wet, it was supposed to be a pool party after all.


Our sweet 5 year old...well in a few days anyways


FINALLY....although it was a little cold

Dora the Explorer!

Dora the Explorer came to Bentonville today to the library and then tomorrow for Bentonville's First Friday on the Square. So a few of us decided to grab some lunch and then head to see Dora. I was not real sure how the girls would do with her, since they HATE mascots of any kind. I was pleasantly surprised, they would not get in the picture but they stood right next to me not screaming while I took the picture. When we arrived at the library they were on #30 and we were #99, but only a short 45 mins later we were taking our picture...I know crazy, but the kids loved it.

Jones, Ella, Cole, Carter, Dora, and Miles in front...


We thought this was all we were gonna get at first, at least you can see her hair, and that fact that the girls were there.
