so busy!

I am in trial and have been for the last couple weeks. I know I'm pretty behind in my blogging. I've got a lot of pictures from Flag Fest weekend that I need to get published and some overnight visits with Isabelle. However, they are orderding transcripts during the trial and I'm behind on other transcripts. Needless to say, I don't have much time at night to work on fun stuff! I'm only taking a few minutes tonight because volleyball got rained out and I wasn't anticipating having any time at all. My 15 mintues are about up though. Otherwise, all is well, and those of you who are waiting for the pictures I mentioned, I'll post them on Shutterfly and try to get some posted here soon!

crafts with Bode

Here are a couple pictures I snapped when we watched Bode a couple Sundays ago. It wasn't very nice outside, so we stayed inside to do some crafts. They had a blast!

first movie

A couple weeks ago I took Becky to her first movie (UP) while Al was working at the Speakeasy. Not the best movie, but all in all we had fun. Becky did get scared and didn't want to go in to the movie, so I had to carry her and the pop and the popcorn. Once we got seated though, she was fine. About 20 minutes before the end of the movie, Becky said to me, "I want to go home and see my dad." In my book, that means that movie wasn't all that great! They did show a preview for The Princess and the Frog to come out this fall. I think that might be a little more up Becky's alley! She was pretty excited about that one and the New Ice Age movie. Yeah! I love movies in movie theaters!

Ready to go in to see the movie!

fun weekend

Our weekend started out with a little fishing. Al caught two fish in the first ten minutes! Then....we got nothing! Oh well. We had fun anyway!

Becky has the swimming thing all figured out!

picnic at the park

And the weekend ended at the park. The weather was so nice, up until the rain Sunday night, and we enjoyed being outside. We're ready for summer!

Murphy kids

Bill and Kim were in town a couple weekends ago, and we got to spend some time with them. I managed to get them to be still long enough to snap a couple pics of Becky, Reagan, and Owen.
