VBS Family Night June 14

Harper playing Just Dance, she LOVES the game!
Inside bounce houses, because it had rained earlier in the day.
Cookies for dinner, her favorite.
Nothing for dinner, his favorite.
Dancing to Go Fish!



love them...

Summer, week three.

Well...behind on posting photos and updating blog. We can blame Pinterest for that, it is my new obsession. One I really need to take a break from b/c nap time has turned into pinning time instead of cleaning time and I think Keith has noticed....eek...

Today we went to the pool and played with neighbor friends. Tomorrow maybe Deanna Rose...but mostly we need to lay low this week and get caught up on stuff (we shall see if that happens). Davis has soccer camp next week and then we leave 7/2 for WA.

Keith was sick for Father's Day so that was kind of a bummer. Still not great today, but he went to work. Guess he is better than Sunday?

We took the boys to Fork and Screen to see Mr. Popper's Penguins on Friday and then Sat night we went to Bocce Basement with friends. It was a blast. Need to go again. I think the cocktails in the car on the way made it even better.

Summer: Week Two

This week Davis has chess camp in the morning and VBS in the afternoon. Today that was followed by a pool party. I don't know if it wore them out, but it did me. How the boys found so much time to argue between 4 and 6 I don't know but I was considering taping them to a tree out front...or something to shut them up. Fingers crossed they don't do it again tomorrow or I might give it a try.

This week's VBS has 1200 kids in it an 500 volunteers this year, now that is one big VBS!

I did learn a lesson today. Between the two events this morning I took my kids and a few others out to lunch all by myself. Never. Ever. EVER again. What was I thinking. Why did I think I could swing it alone...you big family people, I am in awe.

1st Grade Pool Party!

Is that Harper in the middle of the pool? Where are her parents?

Deep thoughts.

Sleepy princess.



Yum, Cake Pop!
Hmm...cake pop?
Tonight Mrs. Haught's first grade class met at our subdivision pool. It was a great time, and we hope to do it again before school starts!

On the road again...

Gma and Gpas can wear you out.
Must sleep.

Or force your eyes to stay open so you can see the end of GForce.

More fun at Gma & Gpas

The pink scooter...always a good time...

Watering dirt, always important.
Stacking your blue corvettes. Equally important.

I wonder what pickers would say about writing on a licence plate...hope it's not sharpie...

Ah Farah...isn't it a throw back...and isn't it sweet that Harper points at it and says "mommy". Love that girl.
More pink scooter.
Ready for a breast cancer awareness parade or a gay pride ride?

He loves to ride out in the open, but not at home...the "big crash of 2010" still has him afraid to ride here. Hope we move past it soon.

And apparently she chases anyone on a bike.

This time she got on it.

Look, a rock. See something new everyday...

The Zoo...no animals were harmed this visit.

Davis pushing Harper.
Davis finding his inner monkey.
My three monkeys

Braylen, Davis, Harper, Carson and Addilyn

Biting? Is this a problem most 7.5 year olds have?

I wonder if she remembers the Giraffe trauma...

Harper pushes Davis.
She pushed him much too far...
Hungry?

I need to put Keith's flip video clip of the monster roar we got.



No roars here. Keith thinks our kids are most like meerkats. I don't know what to make of that...they are a lot like him....

Harper and Grandma
Davis and Dad

Mine. Mine. Mine.


Round one of snow cone done. Round two was much messier.
Ah, field of goose poop. Let's run and chase them...
Grandpa didn't feel very well.

The turtle.
Is that Oogway?
The peacock was very friendly. I told the boys to be careful that there was no cure for peacock bites. They bought it for sure...now, do they even bite..hmm..

Beatles?
Give me your best Flamingo!
Not sure what bird that is..
