Swimming Lessons!

The boys finished up swimming lessons last week. This was Kade's third year of lessons with Miss Whitney, and he is a swimming machine. He loves the water. We call him our water bug. He did so great, and we are so proud of him. This was Brady's first year of swimming lessons with Miss Megan. I wasn't so sure how he would do since he is so headstrong, but he truly surprised us by listening to his teacher and doing everything she told him. He did very well. This was Whitney and Megan's last year to teach swimming lessons. We are going to miss them.

4th of July!

WOW! We had a great 4th of July weekend. We started the 4th off at the Round Top parade. We went with Aunt Lolo, Uncle Joe, Aunt Stacy, Uncle Trey, and cousins Jenna, Leah and Baby Luke. The kids all had a blast. Their favorite part was all the candy that was thrown out. After the parade, we headed out to the Green Door. Dane's family had a lunch out there. The kids were exhausted after lunch so we headed home for a nap. Later that evening we had the family over for burgers, chips and dips, and some good old watermelon. When it cooled down a little outside, we were off to Independence for some street dancing and fireworks. The boys loved the fireworks and Kade really enjoyed some dancing. What a great family outing!

My First Blog

Well, I have joined the wonderful world of blogging. I figured this is the closest I am ever going to get to scrapbooking anything for my kids. I want them to have something besides just photo albums to remember their childhood when they get older. Plus, it is a great way to keep friends and family updated on what's going on in our crazy world. I hope everyone enjoys. Kade and Brady are the center of our lives. Kade is a sensitive four year old who just wants to please you. He wants you to be proud of him. Brady, on the other hand, is just the opposite. He is going to do whatever he wants to whether you like it or not. He is my silly clown. Both boys love being outside playing baseball and fishing. Imagine that!
