HOT July

The first few weeks of July have been scorching hot here and we have had little to no rain - it looks like the pastures are burnt to a crisp. It is depressing but we just continue to pray for rain and hope for the best.

On a lighter note, last week was the annual Oman Family Vacation. Yes, we survived the heat and our trip to Lake Kingsland was fabulous! Georgia had so much fun swimming and it was fun to spend time with the family. Jessica took these pictures since I never once got my camera out...

Here we are with the majority of the family! The Oman Grandkids - All 10 of them - but not for long! Baby Page will be here in November!
I have a few pictures from the past few weeks.

Georgia just loves her baths so here is a sweet shot from bathtime:

We did get her 9 month photos taken in June. Here she is just before we were leaving to head up there. She finally did smile for the photo shoot this time and I can't wait to get the pictures in.

The weekend we went up to Sam's baptism I did get a few pictures of Georgia with Grandma & Papaw. Grandma had an angel that played "Jesus loves the little children". It is a beautiful angel and has wings that light up with the music. Georgia loved it and kept wanting to touch it. The funniest thing was that instead of trying to grab it and be rough with it she would delicately try to touch it. It's like she knew to be gentle. Every time the music would play she would slowly rock to the music. It was so sweet and it is the first time I've seen any reaction to music. Here's the video from it - watch carefully to see her rock.

Our 4th of July was rather quiet. We were trying to all recover from the Belt Buckle Bonanza. Even I was tired and didn't really do anything but try to keep up with Georgia! It was very hot and the guys were pretty tired after it was over. We ate BBQ with Jacob's parents and grandparents and then went to the TCCA Heifer Banquet that night. We went to the banquet on behalf of Dana to receive an award for Charlie. He was one of four recipients of the "Champions Forever" award. This award was given to current or former TJLA members who passed away this past year. We were honored to be there for Dana.

Georgia came to the banquet with Jacob and I. She wore her stars and stripes for the 4th and was definitely in the mood to let everyone know she was there.
