We had a turtle crawl up to the edge of the house and lay her eggs in the dirt.  It takes 2 months for the eggs to hatch, so we will be watching for them! July 31st.

She covered them up and waddled back to the lake.  I'll bet she was feeling a lot lighter!

These geese wouldn't let us feed them

My special friend Caroline Park.  I went to her Kindergarten graduation.

She is very shy and she got up and said her part!  I was so proud of her.

The Park family, or part of them. 

We were able to see Martin in Atlanta, as he was taking a class.  We miss him and his family.

My Big boy!

We were a place of refuge for a rained out girls camp.  Brittany's girls.  They all slept upstairs above the garage.

We served Cinnamon rolls in the morning and then we caravaned them back to their camp, which was about 20 min. away from the house.  They were so tired and their stuff was wet, it was the last day of camp for them.

Nathans last day with us.  He came for a month long visit.  It was fun to have him around.  He would cook for us all the time.  He is heading back to Kentucky for Chef school.

Nathan is happy

We are better now.  Dawson loved to be thrown in the air by Nathan.  It gave me panic attacks.

Father's day!  Those are bacon roses!  It was Brittany's pintrest idea

We love our dads, it was a fun day.

We went to Kentucky for a week.  We met Lisa and Darin and our sweet little Raina.  Heather had signed  Reagan up for kindergarten reading program at the library.

Nathans first day of school...culinary school

Darin likes to eat raw peanuts.....we made it into Peanut brittle!!!!  Yum He only took one piece!

This is the out fit he wears to school, his pants are black and white plaid.  Why is it that someone who works with food wears white?????????  Not me.  I hope he has lots of homework and cooks for Heather's family or is in charge of thanksgiving!!!  We had a fun time in Kentucky.  the house was crowded but it was fun. 

I added some more pictures on a previous blog entry, check it out.  It was our visit to Kentucky.  When we got home I had a nice visit with Leann Mitchel and we had fun watching movies and playing games.  Then Aaron and Britts returned to stay the summer with us.  This is how Grandpa and Dawson go to get the mail.  It works for everyone involved!

Ta da

I like it in here!

Grandpa is sharing his food with Dawson

Our Trip to Kentucky was fun.  We were bringing Reagan the "barbie"house and we had to take out the back seat and take the door off the car to get it in.  Once it was in we couldn't see out the back window the whole trip up there.

She loves her barbie house!  It had a fuchsia roof and green floors like her room.

surpirse

the things Grandparents will do for their grand children

And what great help Grandpa had in putting the door back on!

We need 2 of these cars, they always both go for it

I'm just helping Papa work!

As you can see the house was played with right away.  It also is a pretty pony house

Their shirts say 1 of 2 and 2of 2

How cute is this double lawn chair.  We are at  Thunder over Louisville.  We hung out all day and watched airplanes and then had a wonderful firework show

It got cold but who cares when you can watch airplanes all day

They had new groups all afternoon.  No blue angles or jets like usual as Oboma grounded them!!!! of couse the one year we come.

The bidge you see in the picture, when it was night had the fireworks on them and they brought in a barge that was bigger than a football field.  It was spectacular!  it was the best display of fireworks i have ever seen.  it was just beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Help Mom is cutting off my curls!!!! People used to ask if I was a girl

I am all boy and have cute waves now!  Thanks mom

Louisville has an awesome hands on science museum.  One day a month it is free.

There was even a lot for the little ones to do

A giant bubble

At this station you could build things

This was so fun.  It had air blowing through the tubes and you could change how it went through the valves. The kids put small rags or puff balls in it and it would suck them in and blow them out one of the openings

More fun with Papa

At the light table Reagan was very creative and took the pieces, that are magnetic, and made a castle.

After this picture was taken, Hudson came and knocked it down

This is how Heather gets around these days

Hudson doesn't think this is fair, he is strapped in.  Larry and I left the kids for a while and went to the part of the museum that had the body in motion display.  it was really interesting and we have been wanting to see it. It was a great day and we love being with the children and watching them explore and learn.  Heather is so good to go and do, even though it is a lot of work.
