Pre-School Graduation Songs

Pre-School Graduation

Yesterday was Stephanie's pre-school graduation. This school year seemed to fly for me. Stephanie had a lot of fun this year and I'm very glad that we got her in the program at the school. This will help her out a lot with Kindergarten in the fall.

water fun weekend

This past weekend it was nice but not down right hot so I really did not want to fill the pool because it would have been cold water and they would not have used it for long any ways. So I had recently purchased a bunch of water guns. We filled a big bin that i had bought for pop for one of our party's. They had fun with the water guns for a while but being that they were small they had to fill them a lot. So the next thing I see Tyler went and found his larger water gun and the girls found pop bottles.

Busy Week

With this being the last full week of school its been really busy. Not only for the kids doing all of the end of the year activities but mom's keeping busy also. Wednesday i got to go to the Rochester zoo with Stephanie. Until Tyler took this trip last year I did not even know that Rochester had a zoo but it was a nice little zoo. By time you walked to the other end and back for pre-schoolers it was the perfect size.

Flower Girl

We went to a wedding this past Saturday. It was an out door wedding and was very nice. Well Stephanie plays with both of the flower girls. Abby her cousin and Taylor her new step cousin. Well Stephanie keep getting up set because she wanted to do every thing the other two girls were doing. She did get in a picture or two. Well on the way home she asked why she could not be in all the pictures. So I told her she wasn't one of the flower girls this time. So her response was priceless," I'm a flower girl I have flowers on my dress." I love it.

Church

The girls love going to church on Sunday. This past year was the first year of Sunday school for the kids. Our section of church is considered the rowdy section all of the little kids sit in our section and the older people have gotten use to us now. The girls have gotten so comfortable there that they are now even getting up and singing with the band sound foundation that plays from time to time for us.

Thursday

Last night the girls went and got there bangs cut. Aunt Heidi takes care of the family hair needs. The girls love going to get there hair cut it takes a whole 5 minutes for both of them. I don't know how I ended up with girls that like dresses and make up and all of that girly stuff. Once I had a say i was having nothing to do with dresses. This weekend were attending Brynn and Dales Wedding and Stephanie is so excited she loves to get dressed up.

Our Dog

Tweeter is a little Jack Russell and he loves to chase the rabbits our neighbors are so kind to let run all over the neighbor hood. We try to keep him under control but a terrier is a terrier. So last night, Ashley knowing how to open the screen door. Will for no reason just Let Tweeter out and come and say,"Tweet out"? And then for an hour mention how she let him go and wants to know were he went until he either comes back or the neighbor will bring him home. We got a call last night about another puppy. We have been contemplating on getting another dog. It seemed when we had Kahne Tweeter did not run off he had some one to play with. So the weekend of July 26th we will get to go and pick up our new puppy. Another Jack Russell who is a distant relative to Tweeter. I'm excited we have not told the kids yet or we will hear for the next six weeks, when can we go get the puppy?

This is the start

Well here goes I'm going to try to keep an up to date blog on what were up to in our fun and hectic world. I can't say that I'll post every day but I will try. The kids are changing ever day and reaching new accomplishments every day. Baby Kaylee last night for example has decided she wanted to walk all over the living room so running will be the next step. With so many friends and family who live so far away. My hope is to be able to share with you our amazing little ones and our lives together.
