Lexi the Princess turned 4

We were so happy to be invited to Lexi's birthday party. All the girls wore their princess dresses and had so much fun.

Here is the girl of the day. Happy Birthday Lexi.

LL decided that she would like to lick the cupcakes.

BBQ, Lunch and having to say good-bye's

Since we are among many other 3rd year law students leaving this summer there have been many get together to say good-bye. It's sad but we all know we are ready to be out of school (well, our husbands I guess are the one's in school).
I couldn't resist, MaryBeth looked so cute holding Luke.
Bye guys!

Now why didn't anyone tell me my hair looked like that, YUCK!

Thanks for a fun lunch ladies

Snakes?

Yuck, snakes are not my favorite. But we finally found out what has been digging holes in our back yard. Right before I mowed the lawn the other day I went and picked up sticks and branches out of the yard, and I thought it was a stick until I got closer and realized it was a snake skin. McKenna was so confused about why they would leave their skin on the ground and not want it back. Kids can be so cute.

Unanswered Questions

Thanks to Kelli P. I just remembered that I had asked if anyone knew what these two pictures were. Well, here are the answers. And for any of you Idahoans you should have known the yellow one. Okay maybe not because I had never heard of it either and I'm pretty much from there. This one is an old horse drawn manure spreader. They actually used it a few years ago after the fair in town. I know that was probably gross info.
And this is a horse drawn potato digger/farmer I'm not sure of the correct term for it.

Catching Up Part 2

The other day we took a family walk through W&M's main campus. It was fun seeing things that I didn't even know were there. You'd think after 3 years you'd at least know about stuff around town. Enjoy! And click here for more pictures.
The girls have loved finding all the flower gardens in town.

a new bridge in the middle of campus, that has some legend on campus about if you are a freshman and walk over it you will get married that year, or something like that.

A Far Off Land!

No we didn't go to a far off land, I just feel like in my blog land that I have been in a far off land. I am now trying to play catch up. So I hope you enjoy and like usual click here to see more.

Singing Star

When I went home I copied some pictures the my mom took at Disney World and along with it this funny video of LL sining in the car.

Balloons

So I always wondered what happened to balloons when you let them go in the air and watch them float away. Or in our case more times then not, watch the girls cry because the balloon escaped. Well, here is the answer they land in some random farmers field in Eastern Washington State and just sit there for about 5 years before anyone sees them or throws them away. Or in our case by the creek next to my dad's field.

A 5 day trip with out the kids?

Yes that is what happened. I didn't drop off the face of the earth like some may have though. I made a quick trip home for my Uncle Bud's funeral and since it was a quick trip I didn't take the girls. It was a great trip and I honestly didn't know how to act with out my girls with me. Enjoy the pictures and click here to see more pictures.

What a great welcome home it was when my dad called and said that we had to got get some cows in. They had gotten out through some broken fence. And yes I was chasing the cows back in with my camera in hand. Why not!

Here is Sage riding the tractor. She served as my baby substitute since mine stayed home in VA.

Go Sage Go!

Isn't it funny what you find when you visit home. I found my old Pink Schwinn bike, and I think it has been there since the last time I rode in like in Jr. High. Don't look too close you can see the spider webs.

Sage helping dad get the fence fixed. Oh and happy 30th old man!

Grandma don't hide!

Sage loved having Kyle throw her into the air.
Okay now here's the test can anyone tell me what this is? I went to a tractor museum that just opened in my home town while I was home.

Questions number two, what is this one?

Mom you are such a good sport. Thanks!

A walk in CW

Today was a perfect day for a walk in CW. The girls are at a fun age for this. No stroller just fun playing with flowers and rocks and dirt. For more pictures click here.
