Here are some random photos of the

girls on the 4th of July!

I didn't get any with the boys since they we running a muck with their cousins all weekend.

July 4th

Caroline at her 1st parade ever!
Anna is totally decked out in the 4th of July spirit and is waiting for the candy at the parade!

Ella is just happy to be here.

Mathew is waiting for the candy and was getting impatient because everyone else had already gotten at least 2 pieces already.

Grant tried to avoid the camera all weekend. But in our household that is impossible.

Later that night we all went to go watch the fireworks down by the river. Once we got there all the kids piled in Uncle Troy's truck and watched to show.

Between the parade, BBQ with all the family and wonderful fireworks. We had a fabulous 4th of July!!!

Fishing

Mathew crawdad fishing on the river edge.

Forrest is fishing off the bridge into the Little Colorado.

Ella is showing us what she used for bait....A little bacon and a rock to weigh it all down with.

Grant loved crawdad fishing...he planned on eating what we caught. But it was hard to make a meal out of 5 crawdads.

Changes.....

Don't worry nothing drastic is happening in my life....I just gave my blog a face-lift! I really like the new look! Give me the feed back!!!! Who likes it？

Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to the best daddy and husband ever! I love you so much and am so thankful for you! Thank you for choosing me to be your wife and the mother of your children!

Love you Babe!!!

Genius!

Here is Caroline's entertainment during the day!

The geniuses that live in our backyard....sometimes sneak out of there coop! What do they do for entertainment. They stand on the back porch and look into my living room. It is quite funny to watch...Those stupid turkeys will sit and watch us for at least a good 20 minutes. It is crazy that they are even interested in us! Especially with the bigger one...I can now say that we have a peeping Tom!

June 17, 2009

Well it has been crazy around here for a while.....The first part of June was swimming lessons for 3 of the kiddos. Mathew, Grant and Forrest went to 3 days of cub scout day camp. So I was with the girls that whole time. I was so tired by the end. Then, the second week of June was Grant getting ready for Scout camp. He left on the 13th and is coming back on the 20th. Here are some picks of the last month. Hope, it helps get everyone updated.....

Grant ready to leave for Scout Camp!

The seriousness of the camp is on his mind!

Anna is practicing the swimming in the front yard! She is dedicated to the lessons!

Mathew earned his Bobcat for cub scouts.

I will have more to post later on after Grant gets home....He took 2 disposable camera w/ him. So I am sure that it will have lots of pictures!
