Something To Make You Laugh.......

These pictures just make me laugh, and smile the biggest smile!!! When I took some pictures of the kids in their tye-die they did, I took a good 50 or more and out of those I got the one that they were all looking. When going through them I found this group of shots. Just look and Kaden and Jocelyn........
What silly kids!!! I'm so glad that my kids have each other! Even though they fight, and don't get along all the time, they will still have each other. They make each other laugh, and smile. They love each other so much, and I'm sure couldn't imagine life with out each other. We love their goofy personalities, and love that they love each other!!!
And here's one just for fun!! Poor Benny Boy. :)

Swim Lessons

The kids did swim lessons again this year. They all had a lot of fun, and did really good. They all passed their levels, with the exception of Cole, who wouldn't even put his head under the water, in fact, it was hard enough to get him in 3 feet of water. Being at the pool everyday for a month, they really tanned up!! Next year Kennedy and Kaden will be able to do the Jr. lifeguard classes, and they can't wait!!

Tie Dye Fun

I wanted to do some fun inexpensive things this summer, and one thing on the list was to tie dye our own shirts. Wal-Mart has a kit for $15 that will do up to 16 shirts, or other projects. The kids had so much fun doing it!!!! It was time consuming but way worth it. It took me a good 2 hours to rinse the dye out of 5 shirts!!! Since the kit was big enough we invited Crystal and the kids to come do it with us. Cole, Staisha, and Boston were done doing theirs by the time I got the camera so I didn't get any pics of them. We can't wait to do it again!!

Four!!!!!

Cole turned 4 on July 7th, and he couldn't have been more excited!!!!
Cole,
Mom and Dad can't believe that you are already four. You've grown up so much lately. You love to follow your big brother and sisters around and do whatever they are doing. Every time I comb your hair you ask me for a mohawk, and your very cautious about getting it messed up. You always are trying to take care of Benson, talking to him, and if you could you'd carry him around the house. Your such a great big brother!!! We love you so much, and can't wait to see you grow up.
Love, Mom and Dad.
