Fourth of July Night

The evening we grilled steaks and had a wonderful dinner. The kids could hardly wait to light off fireworks. They started asking from 4:00 on. They sat and ate ice cream while they waited for the fireworks to start. The kids loved playing with the sparklers. Jack was so excited running back and forth with so much excitement. He could hardly wait for the next one.
The girls and I were prefireworks entertainment.

Fourth of July

We had wonderful Fourth of July. Jim and I got up and walked around the park then wecame back and had a pancake breakfast. We then went to the pool for barbecue and swimming. The kids had so much fun. The pool provided games and water balloon fights.

Jack's Birthday

April 13 - Jack turned 8 years old. We took him and some of his friends to see Horton Hears a Who. He is active in baseball, basketball, cub scouts and playing with his friends. He is jokester like his Uncle Dave. Jack loves to ride his bike and be just like his dad. He will start the 3rd grade on August 19. I can believe how fast he is growing. He loves to bug his sisters, a phase mom and dad wish he would out grow quickly. We love you JT (Bubba)!! The picture says it all.

Pinewood Derby

Jack participated in the PInewood Derby. His car won for the Wolf pack. So this meant that we move onto District. He was very excited to recieve a trophy.

The first weekend in April we went to Districts. Jack did not place but he said Mom it doesn't matter because I had fun. We are proud of how hard he tried.

Easter Weekend

Ready for church

They love their Webkins (Webkins are stuffed animals and you can take care of them over the internet )




Dying Easter Eggs

Look at the baskets full of Easter Eggs

The weekend started off with a Pancake Breakfast that was put on by Jack's cubscout troop. After we went to church for a Easter Egg Hunt that the youth group put on. Thanks Derek for joining us. Then that night we dyed Easter Eggs. The kids decided that each of their eggs had to be named and they had a whole story line with all 48 of their eggs. I am amazed at the things they come up with.

On Easter the kids were up early for church and very excited to see their Easter Baskets but they waited very patiently until they were all dressed and ready to go to church to see their Easter Baskets.

The New Dog

We got a new dog. His name is Willy. He only has one eye but he is the cutest little guy in the world. We got him at the Humane Society. Nobody wanted him because they thought he was wierd because of his eye. He is so sweet. We just got him groomed. He got to wear cologne!!!

He is so Cute!! And Izzy just loves him. They're so nice to each other.

our internet adventure

You know when you absolutely can't remember something? You knew a few hours ago but it isn't in your head anymore? Well my mom and I did that today. We both forgot the username and password for the blog!!! We both tried it thousands of times but couldn't get it. Then just a minute ago I went onto this program thing where you had a blog but forgot what your password and username was. We would have lost the whole thing if it weren't for me!!!
