Rainy Day

We had a lot of rain yesterday and the neighborhood kids just loved it. I don't know who got out the kayak but it was pretty funny. Jacee actually swam in the water. I hope it was sanitary. Before they noticed the lake out in the circle Nathan and Brooklyn were in the back yard playing in the puddle that had formed there.

Nathan's Flag Football

Nathan has potential to be a good athlete but he just has to be in the mood. His first game he was not in the mood. He didn't even break a sweat, I think he ran the fastest when it was time for the treats. But during yesterday's game he had a burst of energy and pulled three flags! I really was proud of him. Jacee was bored so he climbed a tree and couldn't get out, but a friend of ours finally helped him down. At least I couldn't hear him complaining from up there. Oh yeah they did win their game last night.

Zebra Horse

I think I am about to plug another product but this little zebra horse has been so worth the money. She will just be wandering around hop on the zebra and bounce around 100 mph. She bounces and spins and laughs then gets off, turns the switch to off and then moves on.

Cool Dudes

Just took this picture because they all happened to be wearing the same shirts. By the way these shirts are only about $4.50 at Walmart. Maybe that is why everyone has one. Pretty cute for Walmart though.

And obviously I don't have a whole lot to blog so this is all you get.

Labor Day

We spent the night in Mesquite Nevada for our big Labor day weekend. We

had fun swimming in their gorgeous pool. In fact Marco and I weren't sure if we were going to swim but it was so stinking hot that we hopped right in. We ate at the buffet and that is one of the boys favorite things to do because they can pick whatever they want to eat. Then we watched a movie in our room. It was nice to get away if only for a night.

Just Because...

I can't help it, I take way to many pictures of Brooklyn. But she does something every day that I don't want to forget. I don't want to forget her little pigtails or her squishy little face or even how she insists on being naked.

First Day of 6th Grade and 2nd Grade

The first day of school. Nathan treated today just like any other day, no worries for him. His teacher Mrs. Lett seems very nice and Nathan has reported to me that she is the best teacher he has ever had. We will see if he feels the same next week. His best buddy Christian has been gone for a month in Samoa, and is finally home again. We found out they are in the same class, so he is pretty excited about that.

Jacee would only let me take one picture because of course that is embarrassing. Him and his friend Kirk walked to the bus stop this morning at 6:40 a.m. Wow that is early for me! He said he had a good day he was only mad about the amount of time they had to eat lunch. They had little Caesar's pizza and watermelon for one of the choices but he said by the time he waited in line and sat down the bell rang so he had to shove it in his mouth. I guess he will have to learn to be quick. He only likes one teacher so far, but I met all of them and they all seem really great so far. I am sure he will be fine, I'm just a little nervous for him. He has 6 periods with classrooms all over the school and he has to pack his backpack all day, no lockers.
