isn't she the sweetest ever?

I already know I've got three of the sweetest daughters on the planet, as I'm sure I share with you regularly, but I have a cute story to back it up and I want to share it too.

Tonight at dinner Emory was being extremely complementary of the meal; every single bite she took lead her to saying something else really kind. Here are a few examples:
Mmmmm...Mommy, this is delicious!
How did you make this chicken Mommy...it is so good!
This is the best dinner I've ever had!
Oh wow, I didn't know spinach could taste so good.
Ooooh, I really like this rice, how did you know to make it?
Mommy, I think this might be the best meal ever!

You know...all the usual comments from my cooking ;)

So when I asked her why she was being so extremely sweet tonight her response was PRECIOUS! She said, "Well, I just had all that juice at gymnastics and it's so sweet with a lot of sugar, so that's what's making me so sweet. Now I'm drinking milk to make me healthy."

I love my girls!

Welcome to Panther City

In case you don't know the history of Fort Worth, it was nicknamed "Panther City" back in the day because, as the story goes, it was such a dead town you could see a panther roaming the streets downtown in the middle of the day. Well it's not exactly that dead these days, but we did find some interesting wildlife roaming our street this afternoon.

Yep, that's a buzzard, eating a squirrel...CRAZY! It was just around 1 o'clock this afternoon when Greg snapped this. Just after taking it a car drove down the street and the buzzard didn't flinch at all. NUTS!

btw...another bit of information about FW, my alma matter (Paschal HS) was the first HS in FW and it's mascot is the Panther b/c of this story and the nickname that came from it...PANTHER CITY.

A few random moments...

We have had a few great random photo opps around here today and I wanted to share.

A little sass from the Princess on a Monday morning.

SUPER EMORY!

These were actually taken last night. Addison decided she needed to try Emory's boots on...

We have such adorable girls! Yes, I know...I'm biased...but I still think it's true! Thanks for admiring them too:)
