Tea anyone?

We had Naomi with us this past week. I decided to

have a few of the ladies over for a last minute tea party.

8 of us: Sharon, Naomi, Myrna, Ann, Judy, Ella,

Alice and myself. A good time.

Ella & Alice.

While Naomi was with us she liked to come with me

to drop off & pick up the kids from the bus / school.

Each day we would pick Braden up at 11:30 and then we would come

home and have lunch on the deck (beautiful weather last week!)

This day after lunch Naomi decided to have her nap in the lounge

chair on the deck. Braden was playing in his little fort and also

fell fast asleep on the deck - pretty cute!

Braden's Birthday!!!

The Birthday Boy!

(It's all about dirt Bikes.)

Singing "Happy Birthday"

Shelby really enjoyed her cake - mmm.. yum!





Time for presents.

Uncle Nate & Auntie Katie found him this cool shirt -

Now I'm trying to get him to take it off long enough to wash it.

Monday we did his birthday party at school -

that was a lot of fun. I got to stay & help out for

the day because the teacher's aid was out.

Daddy!

Kevin has been in Atlanta for the past 2 weeks

helping Darryl on a job - we missed him like crazy!

Here we are at the airport Mon. night -

a bit late for a school night but they were so excited.

We were able to watch Kev's plane fly in and land so

the kids thought that was pretty neat. Then they

ran downstairs to.......

watch for Daddy to come around the corner.

This picture is fuzzy but anyway they almost ran right

thru security to get to him.

Yahoo Daddy's home!!!!!!

Fun Times!

The kids & I met Janice & the kids at Chuck E Cheese.

They had so much fun!!!!

(All the kids bowling - Bre, Bella, David, Braden & Kate.)

A horse ride for David.

Braden had so much fun on the flying games -

he was burning thru tokens pretty fast!

The roller coaster was a hit - Bella & Bre.

Hold On! Bella, Kate, David, & Bre going for a ride.

This video is a bit long but anyway they were having a blast!!

A Bike Ride

After the girls got off the bus Shelley & I took

the kids to the Nashua Rail Trial for a bike ride - Good time!

Braden & Ava waiting again for Ellie & Breanna, they had

to keep stopping to fix Ellie's peddle that kept coming loose.

(I didn't get a picture off Ellie & Bre fixing the bike)

And we're off again.

A fun afternoon at the bike trail!

School Days!

Braden has been anxiously waiting for this day.

He has asked everyday for the past 2 weeks when his school starts.

Well here we are Sept. 8th - 1st day of Kindergarten!!!!!

Breanna wanted to miss the bus today so she could

bring Braden to his first day. He has the same kindergarten

teacher as she had - Breanna really likes her.

A bit sad for Mom.

Kindergarten here we come!!!!

Braden, Brody & Paxton.

Braden, Cali, Breanna, & Lilly

So much fun!
