July and August Update

The problem with not blogging for a few months is the time it takes to choose what to update all of our friends and family about. I am thankful for the good memories that we have stored up of this summer. Things are really going very well. I will try to comment about a random picture here and there. I hope it doesn't seem too incomplete.

Have to show this green that used to be brown and rocky........
Thanks to mom and Bernie's hard work while we were in Mo. we now have a back lawn.


His addiction is still strong but it's cute

John's birthday was the 24th of July, just two days after Paul's. He was excited about the sling shot and four square ball he was able to buy with the Grandparent's funds. Thanks long distance grandparents!! I don't have any good pictures of Paul's B-day but we had a great day at Dollywood together. Lisa and I took the four older boys for their birthdays. I rode the roller coasters with them almost a dozen times.

Lily dressed up for a friend's fairy tale birthday party. She loved it.

And little humpty dumpty sat on his wall.....he didn't like his outfit as much as Lily and Sarah liked theirs.
