A little bit of Summer and School 09

This was the Perfect spot to wait for Jaylen while he was at Cub Scout Camp this year....Yes the girls stayed nice and cool....You'll see!

Just can't wait to test the water (By the way this is at the Park by St.Mary's College)

Lovin the sprays of waterJust a little bit wet don't ya think?????
Time to dry off on the train......Choooooo Choooooooooooo!

This was our little group swimming and "trying" to tan at the lake on our girl's retreat!! soooo Refreshing........Tireing......Envigorating.......Exhausting........Crazy Fun!!!!

Tiana turned 3 Yesssirreeee!

The kids had opened the door to go out side to ride bikes and found this on our door...Tiana was soooo thrilled (she still won't let us take her hearts off the door)

The missionaries suprised her with this wonderful door of love on her Birthday!!!

Gotta love these Wonderful Missionaries!

Her sisters were just as excited as she was! (this is what happens to kids when momma wont do their hair)



Tiana got to pick out what she wanted for dinner, and then decided to help me make it She just loves to cook.

Land of the Giants...Eureka!

Daniel had to do some work in Eureka. McDonalds was paying for the whole family to go, As long as we shopped 9 different stores along the way......That meant ordering the Angus meal, and taste testing it for accuracy. All 8 of us would take a bite and tell what we thought...lol by Sandwich # 6 we didn't want to see another one! By the time we got to the Hotel we didn't want to see another Sequoia tree, Redwood or yet Another Angus Burger!!! So here's a little of what we did get to do outside of the Angus overload!

This was a little bit of a tight squeez but hey we did it!
