Maria

Maria loves horses... these are two of her favorite foals at the barn... Ariel and Penny.

She was the first one ever to sit on this 5 month old foal! How exciting!

ANGEL! I love her curls, they are ringlets! Her hair hangs down to the middle of her back, but you would never know because it shrinks up with all the ringlets!



Big Girl - Maria grew up fast in order to keep up with her siblings! She was very dependent at an early age and quickly had to do everything by herself! She is even starting kindergarten this year, although she is only 4. She is very shy until you get her to warm up to you. Then she can talk your ear off! I love how when I take her on our tag a long bike that she sits behind me and talks the whole ride! She stayed at my dad's once and when he returned her, he mentioned how she jabbers a lot! She will fill you in on every detail of her life! Too cute! Here are some snap shots of her at dinner and cleaning up. Teach them young to take care of themselves, it is much easier on the mom and teaches them responsibility!

Favorite place to be... the barn (well maybe Dairy Queen would be her answer!).
Favorite food... corn on the cob
Favorite color... hot pink
Favorite TV show... Phineas and Ferb
Favorite Barbie movie... Thumbelina
Favorite music... Rascal Flatts

Update!

Sorry it has been so long since I posted... busy getting school back in session!

I will at least post some pictures to tie you over until I get a few minutes to start writing again! I do have a lot of great things happening with Uppercase Living... so stay tune!

Of course we have been busy riding Bubba.... soon I will post pictures of our new horse we will be leasing!!

These photos were taken at my cousin's little girl's birthday party. Check out their flowers in their hair! TOO CUTE!

Maria, Shazia, Olivia and birthday girl... McKenna! The party was at the cutest candy store in Dublin! They had shelves filled with glass canisters containing every type of candy you can imagine. They had a lot of older candy too, which brought back a lot of memories!

Loved the curtains at the candy shop! I am thinking of duplicating them in my girls room! Someday!!!!

This is Anna. Her and her sisters played "runway model" one day. Alex spent a lot of time designing all their outfits (out of our dress up box) then they showed them off to Curt and I. We had to rate them and vote for our favorite! I believe Anna's lace dress was made from a table cloth! Alex took the pictures so that is why they are blurry. Anna still looks gorgeous even when she is a "blur"!
