Brooke is growing up!

Brooke does not want to miss out on any of the fun, nor is she afraid to try to keep up. She loved the horses, but decided to eat the apples herself instead of feeding them to the horses. Once she saw the other kids loving the tree swing she new she had to give it a try. So much for the baby swing on the porch!

Our North Carolina Trip

We went for a nice walk from Grandma Charlotte's house for some yummy ice cream!

After many hours and a lot of hard work of putting up a fence,

everyone enjoyed the new found privacy of Charlotte's Yard.

The girls had a great time staying cool in the pool on our trip.

We finally quit dressing them and left them in their swimsuits.

Everytime we turned around they were wet again no matter what they were wearing!

We had rocking Birthday party for Grandma Charlotte and Alistair. The cousins had a hard time letting Alistair enjoy his presents. They all wanted to show him how to play with them properly.

Camping in Missouri

We had a great time camping with some of our wonderful friends. We had high hopes of many adventures over the summer, but this was it. With the kids finally asleep (after 10pm), the party finally began. It didn't take long for the park ranger to make his way to our campsite. We were having such a good time, in the end he had a hard time leaving.

Fun at the Purina Farm

The kids raced and raced around the room on these fun little tractors.

Brooke was a natural!

Go Cardinals!!!

It was a very warm and muggy day, and we were dreading the idea of sitting through a whole game. But the kids did great and had a fun time. Being in the park was very entertaining, and the cardinals won!
