Six Flags

This past summer my friend Danielle and I took the kids to Six Flags.  It was great because the kids could ride together and we didn't have to

 Sydney and Caitlin!

 Austin is mapping out our schedule!

 Now the girls are figuring it all out.

 The first ride, they said it is fun but kind of lame!

 B's favorite, The Great American.

 This is the first one they did.  I was afraid because of the loops but they all loved it!

1.  Austin and Braden.

 The last ride, only the girls did it.  Freaked me out!

 There they go

 Log ride

Happy Birthday C!

C decided to have her bday party at American Girl.  She brought her 3 closest friends there for shopping and lunch.  I have to say the food was actually very tasty!  Below is C and her friend from school Sydney.  They were in class together and immediately had a bond.  Sydney's brother was in B's class and they got to be good friends!

C being her silly self! 

C with her friends and their AG dolls waiting for their appetizers.

 Laine and Zoe, C's friends from Willow Creek.

Enjoying some fruit kabobs,

They just got their AG treats and are ready to go.

Last Game

B played his last ball game.  His team was first place in the regular season but lost during the play offs.  B had a blast this season.  It was fun to see him improve as the season went on.

 

 He got very good in his batting, almost always making good contact with the ball.

As crazy as baseball is, I can say I actually miss being at the field and watching the boys play.  Until next season!

First Communion

 

We were so proud of our little girl this past May when she did her First Communion!  She did all the classes and worked very hard so this day could come.  She was our little angel!

 We got pictures done but have not picked them up yet.

 Nana, Poppy, and Caitlin



C's gymnastics

In March Caitlin decided she wanted to do gymnastics.  I found a place by school that she could join.  She loved it.  When we would get there at 4:00, the younger kids would be finishing.  There was a little girl named Lainie that was in B's class that would get so excited to see him when we arrived.  I had Lainie's brother last year in my class.  Even though the pictures do not show it, he would run up and give her a big hug, she was half his size!

 

 C doing her routine on the beam.  Even though she was not in gymnastics long, she picked up quickly!

 She insisted on doing a karate wheel for her dismount off the beam, no one else did!

 Her floor routine, she did awesome!

She is so flexible!

Super Proud of her!!
