A is 8

Her birthday fell on a Sunday this year. That meant no swimming at the Pulley's like every other birthday she has had. Chris made her chocolate strawberries. YUM!
We went to Corbetts Glen for a walk and had a lovely time

Dinner Time

How are we serving dinner to 10 kids?
Let me introduce you to....
Lunch Lady Liseanne.

After we went to the Hill Cumorah we took the kids to The Chill and Grill. If you haven't been there GO! We can't wait until grandma and grandpa get here so we can take them and they can treat us to more! :)
I can't get enough of this kid. None of us can.
We tried to take a picture of the girls and boys. The boys weren't as easy as the girls.

Isn't this so cute!
I love pageant because I always get to see Jody. I LOVE her!
These two have become best friends
it is so fun to watch them all play together and build stronger relationships
The pathway up the Hill Cumorah was closed so we had to take the back path. FUN!
It was HOT and by the time we got down the hill we couldn't get enough water.


The Sacred Grove
Joseph Smith Farm
my baby

Hopefully before they leave we will be successful in getting a good picture of all of them together.
The time is going too fast. We LOVE having them here.

Finally!

I have been wanting to take my kids tubing down a river since they were born. Ok maybe not really, but close.
I grew up tubing down rivers and have so many great memories.
A guy from Chris' work told him about this river, so we couldn't wait to give it a try. Those little specks are my kids. :)
They LOVED it! They kept asking when we could do it again and who we should invite.





Am said it was the best Saturday ever! I am happy one of their ipods was in the car so I could get a few pictures. We can't wait to go back. Who wants to join us?
