BFF's Super Neat Kids

A fun Saturday night hanging out with my very best friend Christy's kids. They were super cute and had me cracking up all night!
Beautiful Zoe
Cutie Brandon
Tired kids finally sitting still after a fun filled day.

A Super Fun Grandpa

who will sit and play with his grandchildren in their bedrooms
who will have nerf gun fights until someone is shot in the eye
who will wrestle with them until there is tears
who always brings over a super good lunch
who lives only a couple hours away that we do not see enough
Miss you Dad and Elizabeth!!

To Move or Not to Move?

That was the question of Summer 2010????
First it was Arkansas then Texas and now Wisconsin.
It seems that we are headed to Wisconsin when our house sells.
but it did involve some sight seeing of the different towns that we were thinking about moving to. Way too much McDonalds!
Bread Stick Wars at Olive Garden.
checking out the store.
Fun at the hotel.
and of course swimming!
now just hoping to be together as a family soon.

A Baseball Swim Party Gone Bad

Not too much time in the water....
before the clouds rolled in....
followed by lots and lots of rain....
followed by many wet baseball players at Pizza Hut.

20/20 Vision

Brylee has a brother who wears glasses all the time and another brother who sometimes wears glasses and a MiMi who sent her glasses so she could be like her brothers.
Brylee goes through phases where she insists that she can only see if she wears her glasses.
And this was one of those days!

A Stolen Kiss and a Purple House

Meet the boy that has promised to buy Brylee a purple house.
He goes by the name Flutter Nutter.
One condition from Flutter Nutter...it required a kiss.
One kiss
After begging and pleading... Brylee would not agree so he went in and planted a big kiss right on her cheek.
And now he must buy her a purple house.
The end.

My Brave Boy

Jake had an accident on his scooter one year ago. You can remember it here. Somehow that tooth held on for a year and then it got infected....
He walked into the dentist brave thinking of only one thing. A Wii game. And of course the gas helped. But not one tear!

Slurping spaghetti though his new hole.
and finally time to play his new game. He has requested several times if you could have more teeth pulled so he could have a new Will game.
