Well we are gettin there - whew! I'm at least to July. I helped Sydnie & TJ make some fun shirts for the 4th of July (of course I had to make me one too). Here are the before pictures -

And here is the after picture! Don't these cousins look like they are having fun! I will post our 4th of July on a different day - I'm ready for bed!

One of the highlights of 3rd grade that I just have to share with you, is Syd's play. They were in groups of 4 and had to right a play, make any backdrops, props, or costumes, and then perform it in front of the class. Syd's group did a spoof on The Boy Who Cried Wolf. It was called The Cat Who Cried Mouse. I was laughing so hard, I almost fell out of my chair. Her teacher filmed it, so as soon as I get a copy, I will upload it so you can all see. Sydnie played the mindless servant and the narator. Great job Syd!

Okay, so I still haven't got caught up. We took a little road trip for Memorial Day to visit my Grandma. We had a blast! We visited lots of family in my Grandma's back yard, which is beautiful and fun!


We also visited my Grandpa's grave and saw where my Uncle Tommy is buried and where my Great Uncle Brownie is buried (Dad used to tell us the most amazing stories about him).


We got to visit a zoo - look at these scary looking creatures we found! A rare Sydnie, Rian, TJ, and Gavin! We were so lucky to catch them when they were not sleeping!


We also went to a hand's on museum - you'll have to ask Sydnie what she's doing here. We had a lot of fun!

We have had a most enjoyable, but busy, summer. To start off, we got to help watch Aunt Kimmie's kids for a couple of weeks while her and Uncle Bret went job hunting. We had so much fun! These pictures were taken at some parks we took them to. Kim amazes me - I can barely handle 1 kid and she has 3 under the age of 5! What an amazing woman!
