More Summer Fun

So I may just make my goal to post once a week and anything over that is great. These are just some random summer fun pictures. We have been spending time with family enjoying the little bit of summer we have left. Fall is right around the corner! 

My girls have a really good Daddy. He lets them do fun girly stuff and he joins in! I love it. 

This one right here....... I tell ya she is something else. This was her outfit of choice the other day and I jut love it. Those are Lily's new soccer shin guards/socks. Which by the way she starts in a couple of weeks and Nathan and I got asked to be coaches. Should be pretty fun. I really hope she likes it. 

These pictures of Lily are from my Mom's house. She had picked her up one day while Avery was napping and took her back to her house. This is what they did with their quality time. I sorta love it. Lily always wants to put my makeup on but I'm usually not up for the mess but Nana can spoil her. 

That last picture just cracks me up. How beautiful. : ) 

State Fair 2013

So I feel like a broken record every time I blog. I have been a total slacker this summer. But we have been having a good time and that's what counts right? Nathan randomly had a Monday off of school so we took advantage and took the girls to the WV State Fair. 

With all the rain and weird weather we have been having this summer i figured our trip would be cut short from rain, but it was a beautiful day and actually pretty hot. 

Daddy and the girls rode a couple rides which included the Ferris and Lily called it. It was the first they saw when we drove into the fair grounds and all they talked about until we finally got over to the carnival part. 

The girls absolutely loved the ferris wheel and I wasn't a bit worried that one of them would go toppling out of the car (sarcasm). 

We broke out the double stroller which we haven't used forever, but I really didn't want to end up carrying a kid all over the fair. They were pretty good about staying in too. I think they were hot and tired. 

The girls loved the tractor area and all the animals that were on display. I think my favorite was the bunnies. There were some pretty cute ones. We gorged ourselves on fair food. I had ribbon fries and a chicken philly sandwich and the girls had pizza before we headed out. 

And we picked up one of these to go as well. The best cinnamon roll I have ever eaten, and it was huge! Lily and I shared this for two days. It was heavenly. I don't even care how much sugar and fat was in this thing. It was so delicious. I would eat another one right now. 

Ave was out in the car before we left the parking lot. They had such a blast and I'm glad the weather held out for us!

Insta Friday

This week has been pretty lazy. I'm really not sure what is up with the weather this summer but it's not normal for August. So we have been stuck inside for a lot of this week and haven't gotten too much. You can follow along with us on Instagram @jennypowellfell.

I had some time with just one child this week. I think we went to the store and it is so different with just one child at the grocery store. 

I got this super cute seahorse dress at Target a while back. I love the nautical feel of it. 

We played dress up. 

and went on a family hike. I was rainy when we started and we didn't get very far, but the girls still had fun. 

We are still working on this. We have gone backwards a little bit. She is so stubborn and if she doesn't want to do something she will let you know about it. Hopefully it will just click for her soon. 

Lil took about 50 selfies and videos with my phone the other day. Do your kids do that? I had to delete a ton of pics just like this. 

We did some cuddling on the couch on a rainy morning. 

and got new spin brushes. It made me a little sad that Lily want the more tween toothbrush with stickers to decorate it and Avery picked out Spongebob. My four year old is growing up. 

The rain knocked down these pretty flowers growing on a bush in the yard. We couldn't just let them lay there. 

We have been really working on our bed time routine because we have a girl that likes to get up a bunch after being put to bed. So we have started earlier and have spent more time reading stories. This night was on the front porch. 

I absolutely love that I caught this picture on our walk the other night. I just randomly turned around and snapped the pic. I didn't even realize I had caught such an epic pose until later that night. This catches Ave's current personality perfectly. I love it. Rosie, Rosie, pick your nosey.............

 What have you guys been up too this week?
