Do You Think He Enjoyed His Sweet Corn??

Where Does The Time Go??

Kelsey had her first day of Kindergarten today!! She was very excited! She looked so cute with her new clothes and new backpack! I can't believe that she is old enough to be in Kindergarten..... Time goes by too quickly! I'm very anxious for her to get home so I can hear all about her first day!

Just a Few More Days!

Well, we registered Kelsey for Kindergarten this week! She only has 6 more days until she starts! She is very excited about it. She got Mrs. Dewitt for a teacher. I never had her, but I hear she is really good. I'm glad one of us is excited for this!!!

Bunnies

Lucky (our dog) found some baby bunnies yesterday, and Lance was nice enough to save them from her! He brought them home, and they are currently in a box in our garage. Lance and the kids are having a lot of fun feeding them and taking care of them. They are definitely cute!! I didn't get the best picture of them - it's kind of blurry! There are 4 of them - Roger, Sam, Kelly, and Dinosaur. Kelsey named them - lol!

Spirit of Monticello

Today the Twin Lakes gymnastics team performed at the Spirit of Monticello. They asked Kelsey's class to join them, but it wasn't required, and of course Kelsey wanted to do it. It was only Kelsey and one other little girl from her class, and Kelsey was by far the youngest. She did SO good, and it was so much fun to watch her. It was really cute! They technically cancelled the show because the rainwater on the ground would have soaked up into the mats, but the girls that were there still wanted to do it, so they performed in the grass. Thank you to everyone who came to watch her!!

Back walkovers

Kelsey is on the end - doesn't she look cold?

Handstands

After the gymnastics performance, we let the kids jump in the moon bounce. Maddox LOVED it!

Actually, they all 3 had a blast, along with their cousin Rhyan!!!

Let's Go Racing!

We went to Shadyhill Speedway in Medaryville this past weekend. The kids were SO excited to watch Lynn (a friend of Lance's) race his new car. They also had their fireworks there this weekend since they were rained out the week before. Their fireworks show was awesome! It was a great night, and we all had a lot of fun!

Cotton Candy!!!
Waving to Lynn as he drove by!!

Kelsey and Landon thought it was so cool to get their picture taken with Lynn:-)

Fireworks

Kelsey crashed at the end of the night! She was able to watch Lynn race, and then she fell asleep!

Busy Busy Busy

So, the past couple of weeks have been pretty busy for us! I was going to make just one post of everything, but it would have been SOOOOO long, so I decided to break it up. So, here are several posts of our last few weeks! Enjoy!

Kelsey's Last T-Ball Game

Kelsey had her last t-ball game a couple of weeks ago. She had SO much fun in t-ball this year. I'm glad that she wanted to be in it! Thanks to everyone who came to her games!

She got a trophy - she was pretty excited about that!

Here is most of her team

Huddle up

Great job Patio!

Fishing With Daddy

The kids have been begging Lance to take them fishing, and we finally found time to do it! They didn't catch anything, but they had a lot of fun! I ended up taking Maddox home because it was almost impossible to keep up with him! I don't know if you've ever been to Uncle Gordon's pond, but it's definitely not baby-proof! It was fun while it lasted!

4th of July

Since it rained all day, we decided to buy a few of our own fireworks and watch them at home. My mom and dad came to watch them too. It was fun, and the kids liked it!

Sparklers

Maddox wasn't too sure about the fireworks, but that could have been because he was super tired!

Do you think they're having fun??

I HATE this picture of me, but it's a cute one of Maddox!

Go Cubs Go!!

One of my friends from high school invited me to go to a Cubs game with her and a couple of other friends this past week. It was SO much fun!! Thank you Maggie, for asking me to go with you! A BIG thanks to my aunt Debbie, mom, and Lance for watching the kids! I couldn't have gone if it weren't for you!

We ate dinner at Harry Caray's Tavern. The food was very good. The sign says welcome back because one of the Cubs players was returning from the DL.

When I got home, the kids were like, "Mom - did you sing the Cubs song?!?" It was cute!

Future Nascar Drivers :-)

We went to see Lynn's new race car the other night, and the kids LOVED it! They had so much fun "driving" it. Good luck tomorrow night, Lynn!
