Becky came out to visit us for a few days while working on her house, and she brought he little girl Addyson with her. Mayson was in heaven!
As you can see by Asher steri-strips, he had a run of bad luck. The one on his right eye came from dance class. He tripped and fell and hit the radiator. I hauled him down to Larry and one of the plastics guys stuck it back together for us. Later that week, we come home from church and somehow in the process of all the kids going up the stairs from the side door, he fell and hit the other side on on one of the steps. Needless to say, I felt like a real dummy having to haul my kid to he ER and ask them to fix the other side of his face for me this time, so instead Larry ran down and got a kit and came home and stuck it back together himself. I have to say, now that everything is off of them, Larry's is the better looking of the two. Good having a doctor in house!
Here's Rhyan and Asher hanging out... checking things out with the binoculars.
So, we went to Lake Farm Park and this sheep took a liking to Rhyan. If she even moved he would run to follow her in his pen. She thought it was funny so she was running back and forth along his fence, and he was running with her. It got better when she climbed up on the fence to look and him, and he obviously decided it was time to take the relationship to the next level. The first time he jumped up he startled her and she fell off the fence. No, of course I wasn't laughing, why would you even think that. After the initial shock of the sheep getting up close and personal, she thought it was great so she kept climbing up, and he kept jumping up to meet her. It was pretty cute to watch.
Here are the kids in the wagon at Lake Farm Park. We have such a fun time there!
Hanging with Dora and Boots at the Children's Museum.
This is what I found one day as I walked into Mayson's room. Apparently she forgot to get rid of the evidence! Oh... we are so in trouble in a few years.
And here are two of our cute guys showing off their stuff at the bowling alley. Not sure their bowling skills are up to par... nothing but a little eye candy for us ladies!!
Mayson knew forever ago she wanted to be the Wicked Witch of the West, and we've had the costume since she used it for her birthday party. I think she looked pretty good. She got all ready for school the day they did their character parade and was so excited until we got to school. At that point she was feeling a little self conscious about being green and that people were going to be looking at her. Yeah, I know, Mayson not wanting attention?? After a little coaxing I convinced her that really, that was the point and that everyone would love it, which of course they did. She looked great.
Asher got some galoshes from Grandma Ursi when she was out here the end of June that he wears everywhere. Even showed up to church in them one day because he put them on himself and one of the kids helped him get in the car so I didn't realize it til we got there. He looks really cute in them though and he loves them. So, when I saw the fireman costume at Costco this year I knew he had to have it. I matched his boots perfect and he loved it. I think I found the costume the beginning of September, and as soon as he saw it he told everyone he saw everywhere we went, "I firefighter for how-ween!" he was so dang cute. He still wears it around the house, to preschool, you know... where you would typically wear a firefighter suit.
Rhyan had known the butterfly was in our bin of old costumes and knew for a while that she wanted to wear it, so hers was pretty easy. We thought she was pretty cute too!
Kaleb decided he wanted to be a ninja, again. I think he likes being a ninja because he feels tough and gets fancy swords with his costume to play with! Rhyan had known the butterfly was in our bin of old costumes and knew for a while that she wanted to wear it, so hers was pretty easy.
