My Playful Children

These kids just keep me going. There is never a dull moment in my life!

This is Ashelyn playing peek a boo. This is her new way of playing. She randomly stops what she is doing to pull off this pose.

Trey had to put his dog int his "cage", and then try it out himself. He thought it was the coolest things ever!

Trip to Park City - August 2007

We went up to Park City and spent a night at one of the resorts. We decided that riding the gondola up the mountain sounded like fun, so we rode all the way up stayed for about half an hour and the kids were done. It was lots of fun.

The kids favorite part was the bridge that we are on. They played on it, threw stuff over it into the water beneath, and ran across it. What a fun trip! We definitely love the mountains!!!

At the Padres Game

Trey and Quin got to go to the Padres game with some of the family. Trey was so excited. He even had to get a hat. The kid is a sports fanatic like his father.

Ashelyn and I got to sit in the hotel room and order room service (with the rest of the smart girls!).

At The Beach in California This Summer

I am finally posting some summer pictures. If you can believe it or not, I didn't take any!!! But that was because our camera's batteries needed to be charged. I know, I know, just charge them. But that is hard to do when you cannot find the charger (darn packing upsets) so we went without a camera. Luckily we have family that loves us and takes pictures for us.



Here is Ashie in her frilly bottomed swimsuit! Of course we had to have the binky because that kept her from eating the sand (which did not last long)! And she had eaten licorice so her face is red (thanks to her father).

Ashie and I walking on the beach, the wind blowing in our hair, the waves crashing behind us . . . it really was a beautiful day.
Trey and Quin in the water. They were looking for sea shells and watching out for jelly fish (Awww).

July - summer of new and exciting things

Trey and Ashie decided to start a band - the flute playing band. Ashie does whatever Trey does, but I was surprised she picked up on this noisy toy so fast!

Trey with some of his friends at the last party of the season for us in Kirksville! We loved going to Thousand Hills State Park in Missouri to play in the water.

Ashie playing tired after helping mom pack up as we were preparing to leave Kirksville, MO. As you can see, she loves chapstick. She does not let go of it.
