Frist Day of Kindergarten

Mackenzie's first day of kindergarten was on August 21. She was a little on the nervous side, but soon got over that. I had to go with her for an hour the first day. Her first full day was on the 26th. She had fun taking a lunch and being able to go all day. It made her feel all grown up.

The Kids' New Playhouse

MacKenzie begged her Dad to help her build Sophie a dog house and he got it finished yesterday. It looks kind of crappy and he still needs to shingle it, but the kids loved it. They all piled in to see what it looked like from the inside.

American Idol (Lawnmower Style)

We were working outside yesterday when we heard Deni Mae singing really loud. We turned around and found her singing into the gear-shift knob on the riding lawnmower as if it were a microphone. She sang for a long time before we decided to get the video camera. Notice the look she gives the camera at the very end of her performance. We asked her what she was signing and she said, "Hannah".

Be sure to pause the music at the bottom of our blog page before clicking "PLAY" so you can hear her singing.

Fourth of July

We all went camping over the Forth of July. We had a great time. We had so much fun that I didn't get a lot of pictures! We wish everyone could have been there!

Silver Creek Plunge

Our new family toy! We're up to our eyeballs in debt for it, but we had a blast cruising around on this bad boy! :-)

I finally found the cord to my camera, so here are a few pictures from our camping trip above Crouch. They have a hot spring and the kids had a great time swimming!

Wanting to go out!

Deni was watching us work outside Saturday when her brother decided that he wanted to see what was going on also. The pictures tell the story!

Twins are a lot of fun, but there are issues we face with these two that we didn't have to with the two girls. It is fun watching them interact with each other!

Mackenzie and Halie went to the ZOO on a field trip. We had a good time hanging out with Mackenzie's Preschool friends. She had a great time going to preschool this year. Halie is excited that she gets to go next fall.
