Tessa - August 2012

Oh Tessa Sue, another month has gone by already.  We've been busy with reunions and holidays, and I'm pretty excited for school to start so things can settle down!

I snapped this picture quick on our way home from the Hatch reunion this month.  You see your dirty foot propped up on Tyson's carseat.  You are such a little twerp.


And a self-potrait you took with the phone on my camera the morning of the Veater reunion in your camo hat.  Your dad bought it, and it is pretty cute.  It says, "If I'm wearing camo, my daddy dressed me."

Every night when we go in to turn off your light your dad and I get a laugh at the way you end up falling asleep.  This is how I found you one night, and yes, you are actually asleep standing up.

Just a silly, silly girl.  I wouldn't have you any other way though.

This isn't a great picture, but that's you in the black sweater with Aunt Sylvia waiting to start your race with the other 3-year-old at the Hatch reunion.  You totally smoked her, which kind of blew me away!  You had so much fun riding your new bike with Quade and Bosten and Logan.  You are such a daredevil too, riding down off the banks and flying down the campground hills with your feet out.

You with some of your goodies from teh fish pond.

You and Logan took turns trying on daddy's hard hat one night as we took him to work to say goodbye to leave on a detail - it was a little bit too big on you though!

We got our family pictures taken a few weeks ago, and we definitely got some cheesy ones from our cheesy girl, but this one is by far my favorite.

You and Logan rode your bikes in the parade for the 24th of July.  You did awesome!  You cruise on your bike like a pro, and I think you will do awesome when it is time for you to learn how to ride a bike that has pedals!

We haven't found out for sure if you are going to school this year or not, and I can't decide if I want you to go or not.  On one hand, I think you would LOVE school and would learn so much, but on the other hand I think another year with you home with me all day would be good for me!  I guess we will know by the next letter I write, so we will have to try to pack in as much fun as we can in the next few weeks either way.

We love you so much Tessa Sue!
Mom

I love that almost every one of those pictures shows your amazing personality. You are such a fun and funny girl and your momma is right when she says we wouldn't want you any other way. I definitely had so much fun taking pictures of you! Love you lots, Sweet Pea!
