Comings and goings of the McPhersons

We have been busy over the last few weeks! We've traveled to Richmond to visit family, went to a cowgirl themed party (a huge hit with our older two!), visited a "cow farm" to buy meat, picked strawberries, and played outside as much as possible!

Since all my pictures are random and from our many travels so I decided to throw in an interesting questionnaire I gave to the girls to liven up the post! The answers were quite hilarious at times and show a little bit of their personalities:)

About Mommy:
1. What is something mommy always says to you?
                      Alley: I love you
                      Kendall: No touching
     (hahaha, you know see what stage we are in!! oh the joys!)
