Kids and water, just have to go together (and so do baths when mud is involved)

My girls were "down for the count" with coughs and snot for about 10 days. One day I treated the to a special lunch, in the basement, with a movie. It seemed to do the trick, within a week they were better.

Happy Birthday Kirk!

We love you Tons!

The Last "Hurrah" of Summer

yes, we managed to keep the pool up one extra week, i was so convinced we'd have at least 1 more warm day. We had 2. Here my girls are enjoying some time with dear friend Caroline, on their last real fun, pool, summery day.
Caroline, Julia and Kelly, stinkin me, stinkin camera, stinkin auto-focus. Time for a new camera?

Great smile Julia!! Now that's your dazzling smile.

The new "Porch Swing" I sold some things on Craiglist and bought this great addition to our yard from there too.

Happy Labor Day!Electricity!!!! ok, maybe just a lot of static!
Kelly got up the courage and slid all by herself down this slide. We are so proud of you!
