Our Garden







I didn't think it would happen this year after having a baby and all. Wil really isn't into the garden so it is my thing. We are much later than before but it looks like we'll have something to eat from it someday! I really pushed myself this week with all the running to come home and plant the plants that were crying for the dirt! Here is a picture so we can look back and see what this wimpy looking garden produced.

5 weeks old!


Elianna will be 5 weeks old tomorrow! She is a very good baby and goes with the flow very well! She is on a great schedule and has slept through the night since day 1! She gets a little fussy in the evening around dinner just like Kailey did. She goes right to sleep when I lay her in her crib at about 8:30. Here is her picture at Sports Camp. We met a guy there who knew Hebrew and wrote her name in Hebrew for us... pretty cool!

KAILEY'S DANCE RECITAL







This year marks Kailey's third year in dance with Moschetta's. This year she chose Acro- AKA tumbling. Her recital was last Friday. Grandma and Aunt Jodee came to share in the fun as usual! Next year it looks like she'll be able to do ballet! It is what she has always wanted!

Summer Fun Begins!

Ben with his buddies today Austin and Paul. They were all born within a few weeks of each other!

Nathan with his coach, Cory at Sports camp


Kailey with her coach, Tatem and friend at Sports Camp.



The kids got to ride the horses when we went to check out the Shekinah Horse ranch camp for Morgan. Ben absolutely loved it!




The kids in front of the nice cabins! Check out the Air Conditioner in the window. Each cabin has a flushing toilet too! Not really roughing it here!



LIFE IS GOOD! See the drool! We play hard, we laugh hard, we sleep and drool!

Well, after today we are all pretty tired! Morgan is currently attending camp at the Shekinah Horse Ranch in Charleroi. We can't wait to see him tomorrow at his closing banquet. While he's been gone Nathan and Kailey attended Sports Camp in Washington through the Life Point church. Ben, Elianna, and I spent some great times with friends, grandma, and shopping.

Fredericktown Memorial Day Parade

Nathan was in the parade with his Cub Scout Pack 1515

Idlewild!!!!!!!!!

Elianna's first amusement park ride!

Ben's favorite ride!

Storybook forest is still a must! Sorry Morgan! Kailey likes to dress as Snow White when she visits.


Every Memorial day weekend we visit Idlewild. Why? well, Military families are FREE!!! so even though Elianna was only 8 days old.....We carried on the tradition!

Last soccer weekend!




Morgan, Nathan, and Kailey had their last soccer games.
I only made it to Kailey's. The girls went to our friends dance recital while the boys went to Nate's game and Morgan was with his dad for his last game. Kailey had her soccer party Saturday night. All those boys and she manages to score the most goals!
