Kindergarten Picnic

Today brother and mommy had some rare but special time together.

All of the Kindergarten families were invited to a local park for a fun time to meet and play.

Of course he found a ball field!!

Super proud of this little guy! I can hardly believe he is no long a preschooler!

I just know God has big things in store for this awesome boy!!

On the way to pick the girls up from camp, I offered him a choice of lunch...I was not too suprised at his choice...maybe disappointed but not surprised!!!!

Hope Reins

Big sis requested to attend horse camp at Hope Reins again this summer and we were glad to support such an amazing organization. She had another awesome experience!

This summer she was assigned one horse to work with all week. Here she is with Esther.

The grounds are just beautiful. God definitely had a plan for this piece of land!
Daddy took her each morning and stuck around on the last day to snap a few shots.

She really enjoyed the chores...picking up poop, cleaning watering cans, gardening...she did happily did each one. Now to have that transfer!!!

One the last day she got to ride each horse...two bare back!

She really enjoyed the interaction with the teen volunteers as well. I was impressed with the number of youth there volunteering their summer in the heat to work with children!

How cool is this? It was made with her footprint...can you see it?

Simply amazing how God can make such beautiful animals!!

Troy has left the house...

Back in December brother decided he didn't want his hair cut so that he could look one of his favorite NFL football players...Troy Polamalu!

Well this style is does not meet the dress code for kindergarten so we had to give it a trim. Actually he asked for it to be way short again and mommy decided to step in and only go half way. I actually really like it just like this!! The wave shows but not too much. He is such a big boy!

Incase the last post made you feel for him...this new Pirate shirt was a treat from Granddaddy while we were at the mall yesterday!!!!

Day Out

Today we went to the mall with Granny and Granddaddy...it appears I haven't been taking them out enough because they had so much FUN!!!

Lil sis enjoyed the "happy cake" hat and continued to sing Happy Birthday to herself!

Well brother was not as impressed with Justice as big sis was!

In the photo booth...saved $5 by having my camera handy.

This is a big reason I haven't switched to a bigger camera!

Big sis posing with a Smurf...doing her best to look sweet and get one...thankfully this was Granny not Grandma and the Smurf is happily in the store!! :)
