Summer Fun!

Is summer FINALLY here? After many, many days of rain, we got some beautiful weather. It went from 60-90 degrees overnight. We decided that it was time to get the Slip-N-Slide out and the kids had a BLAST!!My little gang. Aren't they cute?

Creativity


Kids are so creative. Their minds are always going. The other morning, I found Branon laying on the living room floor with 2 of his Hot Wheels cars. I said, "Branon are you getting warm in the sun?" He said, "No, look what I did to my cars." As I got a closer look I realized what he had done. He had taken the tops off of his cars and had given them new wheels. Look closely and you will see.....yes, the wheels are FROOT LOOPS!! Funny kid!

Batter up!!

Brey had a little excitement in his life last night. His baseball team had their first tournament game. As Brey stepped up to the plate in the 4th inning, he got into position, waited for the pitch, swung at the ball, and hit a HOMERUN!! The crowd went wild!! His team won 10-5. After the game, the umpire gave Brey the "game ball."
He was a little EXCITED!!

Time Flies!

Bentlee Rae. Born April 7, 2008.
Wow! how time flies! Our baby isn't a baby anymore. She's a walking, talking, dancing 14 month old. She has brought soooo much joy to our family! We love our little "Boo-Boo."

Lemonade anyone?

The boys REALLY wanted to sell lemonade the other day. I think they expected it to be a REAL money maker. Brey wasn't interested in helping until Bridger came running into the house with their first profit. They managed to stay outside for about 30 minutes before they got bored out of their little minds. Our road isn't exactly busy so they were pretty lucky to have made $5.

Powell Memories

My little fishermen.
"Captain Kip" and his lady...aren't we HOTTIES!!

While on the houseboat, Bridger celebrated his 7th birthday. Happy Birthday Bridgee!!


"Bentlee in a bucket." This is the only way we could contain her!!

Lake Powell









We just returned from a 10 day family vacation to BEAUTIFUL Lake Powell. It was a lovely 95 degrees everyday!! We enjoyed swimming, fishing, boating, tubing, relaxing, exploring, and of course...eating!! We created some wonderful family memories and are already looking forward to going back next summer!!
