Last quick Chickasha vacation with daddy

We decided to take a quick vacation in Chickasha in a hotel with a nice pool (Best Western).  Dayona loves to swim (of course she likes to jump off the edge and have us catch her), but she actually liked the hot tub the best. Jason has been working alot in Cox City, so much so that when we went to Jennifer's open house, she told another little girl while playing barbies that "thats the father he's working so he stays at the hotel.  Here of some pics of our girl!

Almost time for back to school

Jason has been working six ten hour days, and the heat has been the theme of our summer.  We've had over a month of over 100 degree temps.  Today, we visited Geary school.  Then Day went to see her Nana Smallwood.  She locked herself in the bathroom and painted her own toenails. She did a good job!  We also went and looked at a house today with Nana.  I think it made Dayona nervous about Nana's current house.  She asked who was going to move Nana's house and then later at Nana's house Day went and wrote a "J" on the door for Nana's room and she wrote her name on the Door to Nana and Papa's bedroom, because that's her room.

She painted them all by herself!!!

Dance pics

We didn't get a recital but we got some cute pictures.  This girl is too smart.  Today I heard her yell "momma get your butt in here" from the other room.  I walked up to her and said "what did you say?"  She said " I said mommy your pretty!  I'm in trouble!  She went to the library today and listened to a book.  I was so happy about how much she participated.  What a girl!

Freddies's Fourth of July Bash 2011

This years bash was awesome.  He had a new arena, pavilion, and two fishing ponds.  Dayona got two bites and caught two fish immediately!  We rode horses, went swimming, went fishing, went shopping, sang Karaoke and even saw  Willy Nelsons tour bus.  This has been the best year yet!

Late night swimming at Freddies house.

She LOVED playing with the boys.

The men singing Lucille.

All of the kids were SOOOO good!

Trip to Shawnee

Yesterday we took a trip to see a cousin play in a band.  His name is Thurman Hester.  He is the son of Lola who was a half sister to my grandpa Fred Coats.  I was impressed at the dancing and outfits the older people wore.  They were all so fashionable.  The band was wonderful as well.  I sang two songs "I Fall to Pieces" and "Amazing Grace" with them.  It went seamlessly and I had never rehearsed with them.  I hope I act like this when I'm older someday.  Dayona and I danced.  She also danced with her nana.  We even line danced.  Later Dayona told me that she had wanted to sing.  She has also recently told my mom she wished she was eight so she could go to high school!  Fun trip with fun girls!
