Heather, Seth, Linsey, Kelsey, Landon, Maddox and I went to my aunt Claudia's to swim today. We all had a great time! The water was SO warm!! Thanks for letting us use your pool Claudia!!

The kids have been dying to go to Heather's house to swim in Linsey's pool. It finally worked out for us to go today, and they all had a blast! Thanks Heather!!
We were able to go to Merrillville Wednesday evening to spend the night at the Radisson. My mom had a conference there, so the kids and I went up to stay with her. It was so much fun! The hotel is so nice, and the kids had a blast! Why do we go spend a fortune in Florida when the kids have as much fun at a simple hotel in Indiana??
The pool had a waterfall in it, which was pretty cool. The kids liked swimming under it!
Enjoying the hot tub. It was more like bathwater, which was good for us because of Maddox.
Having a snack after swimming.
Gameroom!!!
Doughnuts for breakfast in the morning:-)
This is once we got home. They were exhausted!!So, after years of begging, we finally gave in and got the kids some cats.....Alvin, Simon, and Theodore :-) Definitely OUTSIDE cats, but the kids love them! They are constantly outside playing with them. I've even caught them pushing them in the swing and sliding them down the slide! I'm not a cat person, but I'll admit, these are kind of cute.
Kelsey finally got her back walk-over!!! She has been practicing and practicing and practicing!! She finally got it a couple of days ago but she hasn't been consistant. Now, she can pretty much do it every time. She moved up to the next class in gymnastics and last night was her first night. She LOVED it! They do so much more in that class than what she has been doing in her other class. We were both excited to see that Courtney Gutwein (Jeremy and Becky's daughter) is in her class as well, so she has a cousin with her!! (Even though they didn't know they were cousins!) She is very excited about her back walk-overs and will probably show you the next time she sees you!!
This is Maddox's new thing. He loves to push the kids on these ride-on toys! I have to admit, I think he must be pretty strong to be able to do this! If he sees one of the kids sitting on these, he runs to them! It's very cute:-)
Kelsey had her first actual t-ball game last week. Those kids are so cute! Kelsey did pretty good, and I'm already seeing an improvement in her. She really loves it!!
I was doing laundry one day when I hear Landon screaming at the top of his lungs, so of course I think he's like dying or something - but no - he had climbed up into his bedroom window and couldn't get down!! Good idea? I think not!!
So, this is a little old, but I haven't posted in a while! Maddox went for his first ride in the tractor a week or two ago. He loved it! He only lasted about 1 round before he was wanting to get down and mess with stuff, but he had fun! He gets really excited when we take Lance food or something and he sees the tractor, so I think he was excited to actually get to get out of the car and go in the tractor.
