Skateboards & Mohawks

my boys used to be so clean cut and proper, well now they want mohawks and to ride skateboards........ i think we've created monsters. (cute monsters though)

reece worked on this mohawk the other night after his bath and then insisted i take pictures of him......

both of the boys have wanted to have long(er) hair, like all the boys are wearing these days

(oh the peer pressure in kindergarten and 3rd grade)

of course we would never allow them to have very long hair but we have let them keep it a little longer...

enjoy the pictures!!

AJ & Reece

I don't have a whole lot to post this week. I am trying REALLY hard to sit down on Sunday evenings and recap the week. I actually pulled my camera out at 8:30pm Sunday night just to snap a few shots of my crazy cute boys.....

Lets see, AJ had to turn in his 4H projects Saturday morning. We ran up to the 4H building this evening to see what he got on his projects. His electricity project wasn't judged yet but he got 1st on his Sports poster. This is his first year in regular 4H so it was the first time he got judged on his projects.

Besides 4H we have just been enjoying the summer. We've done some swimming, some Holiday World, some bike riding, and a lot of sleeping in!!!!!! I love summer because I love to sleep in and so do my boys! We don't go to bed until around 11-12 so we usually sleep until about 8-9. Very nice!!

Yesterday me and Jake went to Louisville with Stacy and Stephanie McClure to eat at Joe's Crab Shack. I got a burger. Jake and Stacy got some huge nasty looking lobster. They liked them though. We had a really great time!!

AJ is going to Holiday World with a friend tomorrow. So Reece and I will probably find a pool to swim in!! (if it is warm enough!!) Have a great week!!

4th of July

The kids had such a great time this year with fireworks. We had our cousins visiting from Avon, my parents, and my sister and her family over for dinner on the 2nd of July.


After dinner my cousin Mark and BIL Trent went and bought fireworks for the kids to do (and the big kids) We had a few fireworks and sparklers.....

AJ doing sparklers . . . .

We had planned a trip to Holiday World for the 4th but since the weather was so rainy we decided to go on the 5th instead. We really wanted to watch the fireworks at Holiday World because they are usually very good. Oh well, we watched the park's from Stacy and Stephanie's so it worked out.

Jumping On the Blog Wagon

Ok, here goes...... i just started posting pictures and stuff to a shutterfly acct but just wasn't quite happy with it. I love it for making photo books etc but otherwise it was a little confusing for me! So I am jumping on the blog wagon and will do my best to post pictures and document the lives of my boys! My have they grown...... AJ is 9 and Reece is 6. I don't seem to take as many pictures as I used to when they were babies but am REALLY trying to get better at it! I know they are still young but when they were babies they changed every day and did so many "firsts" that I just had to capture on camera. I'm not saying that they are boring now, actually quite the opposite! So this is my attempt at blogging and keeping these precious memories better documented.
