Kaya's recital pictures

Kaya had so much fun at her dance recital! She had worked so hard in class every Tuesday for a hour and the recital was what she was looking forward to. She got to get all dressed up in her costume and her hair and make-up done. This was a little girls dream, a princess for a day!!

Slip-n-Slide

It has been so hot outside we needed to find something to cool us off at home!! The kids had so much fun playing with the slip-n-slid! By the time we got done the thing exploded! It was well worth the 7 dollars we spent on it!!

Pictures of our Saturday at Adventureland!!

We decided to take the kids to Adventureland yesterday and they had a blast!! We now realize how small Adventureland is now that we have been to Disney World! They rode all the rides and had fun at the circus. I also handed the camera to Mike so I could actually have some pictures of me in their scrapbooks! This is not a scrapbook page, just something I did messing around with my editing program. Enjoy!!!

Kaya's Preschool class

Kaya is done with Preschool for the year. This was pictures of her the last day of school. She got her memory book and then it was off to the zoo. Clayton and Kaya are both done with school and now it is on to some light summer school work.

Living History Farms Easter Celebration

We had such a great Saturday morning at the Living History Farms Easter Celebration. All the kids had a BLAST!! The kids got to do lots of different activities. Sack races, hunt for eggs, hat races, got to ride on a trailer pulled by draft horses, saw many different animals, picutres with the Easter Bunny and got to spend lots of time with their cousins were just some of the things we did. We went with Danny, Annette, Ellie, and Audrey Dove and Katie, Nathan, and Adam Hauf, and Grandma Diane. The weather was Beautiful and Kaya even got her checks and the part in her hair burned. Then for dinner we had a Bon Fire at Grandma Diane's house and sat around the warm fire and got to relax while the kids ran and played in the yard!!! What a day!!
