It's my party...

To celebrate Mere's 6th Birthday, she and friends partied it up at Jump'n Apes in Cleburne!
What a great place for a party!  So much to do!
 Mere and her friends, Benjamin and Allen!
Jamie and the Birthday Girl!
 Buddies: Cheyanne, Allen, Colt and Cason!
 Caroline...that smile says fun!
 Cheyanne taking advantage of all the great inflatables!
 Andrew..."Cheese!"
Luke enjoying the yummy cupcakes!
 I think I fooled a few into thinking that there was really ice cream in there!
Mere got a lot of great presents....


Even Callier had a good time!
His best friend Ella was there! (They were born the same day...shhh! don't tell him she's older!)
Mom...this doesn't taste like cake!
But look at all the pretty lights!

And Rylie makes 7!

Meet our newest four-legged, furry friend, Riley!

We adopted him from Fuzzy Friends Rescue in Waco on Friday!  Not only will he be a wonderful family dog and playmate to Meredith, Callier, Hank and Abbey (the other four-legged friends), but he will be trained to become a therapy dog to use in the library with me!
 Playing tug-o-war with Abbey.
Three way tug-o-war!
For right now, he's getting used to his new forever home...and his new friends!
I think he'd agree if I said, "Life around the Mackey house is not at all 'ruff!'"
