Kids' Sports

As you can probably see, Trajan is #30. He played quarterback in most of the games we saw, as well as Linebacker. He is a really good football player.

Rylee is really good at gymnsatics. She works really hard. At first, she couldn't jump rope. She practiced and practiced and now she can get it around 5 or 6 times! She is the best in her class at cart wheels. (This coming from a proud aunt) But, one class we saw, the teacher pulled her and 1 more girl out from cart wheels to add on to them some fancy little thing.

Dylan, almost hit by pitch! So, Dylan has some Preston baseball skills in him. He loves baseball and is really good. He also has the Preston humility because he will tell you he's good! He really has a good eye and fields the ball really well. He really likes to slide!

We're Back!!!!

Okay, just so you know, we haven't fallen off the edge of the earth. Kev had a long TDY, so me and the girls went to visit family. We had a fun trip and have now, after a week, are just about back into the groove of things. Our house is almost completely clean. (A lot of dust accumulates after almost 5 weeks!) Kev got off alert today, so I have some help with the girls and will hopefully have everything picked up and put away and clean!
So, I have already gotten phone calls about not being up on my blog (Kim, you only have like 2 posts, so get off my back!!) so, I am finally going to put some more pictures. I hope all had such a fun summer and that it didn't fly by as fast as ours did. As Bart commented my 2nd day of our trip, I didn't even get a tan. And my legs do not thank me for that. Kev says that this is the whitest that he has ever seen me. I do have to mention, that due to the humidity in this place they call a state, it was absolutely miserable to be outside to even walk from the air-conditioned store to my air-conditioned car. Luckily, my garage is attached to my house, so the horrifying experience does not have to be duplicated.
Anyway, on with the pictures. No one comes to this site to read my rantings!

The Chuck E. Cheese Club!

While the older boys were in school, we did a lot of fun things. They had so much fun on all the rides and playing the games at Chuck E. Cheese. Where is Tryce, you ask? He was so traumatized by the truck in an earlier incident, that he would not even look at the truck, let alone get in it for a picture!

This is Haley's monthly birthday picture! She is so adorable!

My cousin's baby, Mackley (I know I spelled that wrong, Sorry Melissa!) is one month older than Haley. Yes, we are very much aware that we are raising a moose!

I think the kids had the most fun riding bikes and scooters in my parent's driveway! It was quite a reality check for Avery to not be able to ride her bike every day like she did there.
