More camping

These are a few pictures of the kids at the beach! They LOVED the beach! We are planning another trip to go down there again. The top picture is our tents at night! We put lights on them for nightlights! Thanks for looking! We did see a snake on the campsite. I will put that picture up when I get it from Katie's camera.

Back from camping!

We had a really great time camping!! We went fishing, boating, and making great food!! There was a park close to our campsite that I took the kids to and they had fun, then when we went boating we stopped the boat and let the kids swim! Noah was doing flips off the boat into the water!! And Dad was the only one up on skis! I will add more pictures soon!

Isabella's First Birthday!

Today is the big number One birthday for our little Isabella. Since we already celebrated her Birthday on Saturday we have just been taking it easy here today. We went down to the park to swing and blow some bubbles and just have a good time in the sun! Tomorrow we leave for our big camping trip!! 2 days in the great outdoors (We will see how great the outdoors really are!!hahaha)

The Girls Birthday Party!

We had a great time on Saturday. We celebrated both Moriah's 4th birthday and Isabella's 1st Birthday. A friend from Church made their cakes and they were wonderful looking. I made supper for the whole family which included salad, garlic bread, corn on the cob, and homemade cheese filled pasta shells. They were wonderful!!!

The Boy's playing Hairdo with Bella

They thought that this was sooooooo funny!! I was talking to Cynthia on the phone and heard this load laughing coming from the bathroom and had to check it out! And this is what I found a baby with a mohawk!! I had to take her to the kitchen where my camera was and take some pictures!! how funny!

Why did the turtle cross the road?

I think to get to the other side!! hahaha!! I was leaving Amie's house the other day heading to bloomington, and I saw this in the middle of the road. Of course we called all of the kids out of the house to see it!

Moriah turns 4

Monday the 16th was Moriah's birthday so she got to pick out what she wanted for breakfast, and lunch on a new princess plate and placemat. Also she wanted to play the pretty, pretty princess game. That was a lot of fun since the boys played with us!! They screamed when I got the camera out, but I still got to sneak in a few pics!! Moriah won the game! And don't you just love the way Moriah is eatting her cupcake? She licked all the icing off! Sorry pictures didn'y upload in order!

Wow what a storm

I had to take a couple of pictures because I thought the sky was so neat looking!

Zack's first time to camp

Zack had a blast at Little Galilee. He did the Outpost camp for one night. They slept in teepees, had a campfire, went swimming, and had sooooo much fun. Zack and Noah were great buddies!

Today at the Splashpark in Bloomington

We had a great time today at the splashpark. We met up with one of Moriah's friends from church (Emma) And they ran through the water sprayers, and on the slides and had a picnic lunch. My sister Katie and her little boy Taylor came along with us too! I can home a little burnt. (stupid mamma that blocks the kids but not herself!!)

Look at me I'm standing!!

This is my baby Bella. She figured out how to stand on her own! And of course The kids think this is great and want her to copy them too! I am sure she will be walking soon.

My New Decals

Isn't this the cutest thing you have ever seen? I got these as a gift for my birthday in May and just got around to putting them on my van!! (good thing though with us just buying a new van.) Thanks for looking. Have a great day.

PS If you haven't seen Deja Vu with Denzel Washington; rent it!! it was great.

Isaiah brought all of his puppies to the living room to watch cartoons this morning. He loves his puppies. Have a great hot summer day.

The 4th of July!

We had a great 4th. We went over to mom's house for a cookout and then went to Bloomington to see Mike's mom and the fireworks at Fairview Park. The kids loved the fireworks! I hope everyone else had a great 4th of July!!

White Car SOLD

All Monday morning I worked on cleaning and detailing Mike's car so we could sell it. I finally had it clean and washed so I pulled it in front on the house, typed up signs aroung 1:30 or so and put it in the car. 3:30 I got a call the guy came over to look it over and it was sold at 6:00!! WOW! That was so amazing let me say that again, but backwards this time WOW!! (hahaha) Anyway I can't believe that I sold a car so quickly. I did have it priced to sell and I didn't have to mark my price down!! Anyway everyone have a wonderful day!!
