Church Carnival

We went to the church carnival on Sunday with our friends the Wyman's. It had an international theme with games to play, food to eat, and plenty of entertainment. Really it was quite enjoyable and reasonably priced.

Keara won a cake at the cake walk and was very excited. She is lucky when it comes to cake walks because this is not just the first time she has won before.

Kailei enjoyed the jumping castles and slides.

We had a nice time and the kids came home pooped and ready for a nap.

Grammy and Poppy Are Home!

Yeah! Grammy and Poppy finally made it back home after five week vacation. We missed them very much and are glad to have them back.

MWCC Annual Picnic

Well, Saturday we had the annual MWCC picnic (not that we don't picnic together all the time) but this was the "official" one. We went to a nearby park in Parker. It was nice until dinner time when about a million mosquitoes showed up and began to eat everyone alive. Who knew?! Despite the cloud of mosquito repellent we still had a good time. The kids are just too darn cute and we love our MWCC family.

We Have Butterflies!

Well, the butterflies were born on Saturday. We were very excited to have them around even for a short time. My fear is that they won't live long once we set them free due to the cold but I also don't want them to lay any eggs either so they are flying free as I write this.

Kailei loved the whole process of growing butterflies. Perhaps we have a scientist on our hands?

Goodbye Uncle Curtis

Zeb's brother Curtis left town today. He is moving to Richmond, Virginia and while we will love the opportunity to visit him, we sure are going to miss him around here. Goodbye Uncle Curtis. We love you!

Growing Butterflies

Kailei received a great birthday gift this year that is allowing her to watch caterpillars turn into butterfly's. She is absolutely loving this. We watched the tiny caterpillars grow big and fat and now they are in their chrysalis stage. She talks about them all the time and we are enjoying her excitement. Anybody know what butterflies eat? :)

Labor Day

Still trying to squeeze in some relaxation, I took the kids to the pool this morning and met Britt and the girls there. It was probably the most crowded I've ever seen the pool but enjoyable nonetheless.

At the last minute, I decided to call the Wyman's and Lawrence's for a spur-of-the-moment bbq which was great. Nothing fancy but the food and company were great.

All in all, we had a FANTASTIC labor day weekend.

Now, back to reality. :)
