Father's Day

Yes I realize that Father's Day was a few weeks ago but it's always better late than never.  The night before Father's Day we took the kids to decorate Grandpa Pugmire's door.  They love to do this because we have to be super quiet so that Grandpa doesn't know we are there.  On Sunday morning, Grandpa woke up to this on his door.  When we saw him later that day he told us that it totally made his day.  I love that my kids love to do stuff like this for other people and that they get to see how happy it makes others.  We also had a good time spending time with all the wonderful Father's in our lives; Dad, Nate, and Dan!!!!! Thanks for being the awesome examples that you are!!! We love you!!!

Nature Camp-Traevn

Tonaquint Nature Camp- Wiggly Worm, June 15th-19th

Traevn loved Tonaquint Nature Camp last year so much that he literally begged to be in it again this summer.   He has so much fun there and learns things everyday that he is so excited to tell us about.  This year his tribe the Dragon Warriors won the tribal challenge and so they got a plaque for it, he was so excited!!!  Also, they took a field trip one day and went fishing, which he loved!!!  I am glad that he enjoys going to Nature Camp and he already can't wait until next year.  Brekken is doing his Nature Camp this week so stay tuned for his pics. 

Swimming

There is nothing that can quite cool you off in 100+ degree weather like taking a good swim.  We are fortunate to have a pool about a block away from us at Grandma and Grandpa Graff's house to use at any time.  It sure makes the hot, hot weather worth it!!! The kids are all little fish and love to be in the water!!! Nate and I love it because after a couple of hours or more it tires the kids out (not many things do:)) 

Happy Birthday Grandpa Abbott!!! 

Happy 4th of July!!!

Little Heartbreaker

Brynlei loves to get her hair straightened but when she does it always makes her look so much older.  I seriously can't believe my little girl is growing up so fast.  I wish time would just slow down for all my kids.  The boys are so sweet and always tell her that she looks so beautiful when she gets her hair done like this.  We are for sure gonna be in trouble with this little girl when she finally does grow up (that is if any of her brothers let her date:))  Watch out boys!!!

Funny Brynn

Karter went to play neighborhood night games the other night and left his pajamas out for when he got back.  Brynlei found them and put them on and came in the front room giggling.  She thought it was so funny, she said she was being Karter.  She loves her brothers so much!!!  This little girl keeps us laughing.  She has this crazy laugh that she does and it is seriously hilarious.  (I will have to record it sometime.)   Oh yeah if you can't tell, I am still behind about two months on some other posts.  Stay tuned.
