NEW TOY!!!!!!


I completely forgot my best news! The day the Pickens left (Sat), Kevin suprised me with a new Bernina Quilting, sewing machine!!!!!! I haven't stopped sewing since!

Sad news, Kevin killed our tadpoles, lol! He added more water because it was dirty, and they died instantly. Oh well, guess we will try again next year

We have babies!!!!!!




When my parents were here, we were getting into the pool and we saw frog eggs. We get them all the time because of our forrest we get tree frogs every night. Well, Kevin decided to take the eggs and see if he could hatch them. I can't believe it, but at first the eggs opened up and they looked like little worms, and couple days later they started to move, and then I looked at them today and they are real live tappoles, with eyes and everything. I think our experiment is working. We'll see if we can keep them alive.

Pickens Family next






Well, Mom and dad pickens came with Shad and Jess. Boy, we never sat down. We first went to six flags. I didn't go becasue my back gave out on me a couple days before. Stupid pinched nerve. Well then we played by the pool, ate lots of food, and then we went to Branson for a couple days. Half of us saw Broadway and the other have saw Yakaov. Broadway was the biggest joke I've ever seen, it was horrible. The dancers weren't together, the main singers were horrible, and the main guy sounded like an Elvis impersinator! So we left half way through. We then went to Chilis to eat and then saw the Chinese Acrobats. Now that was amazing! We all had a blast, and Morgan and Rylan couldn't take their eyes off the stage.!

I forgot that Mom and Dad showed up on time for the 4th. We went out to our friends house in the country and shot off fireworks. Very loud fireworks!

All in all it's been so much fun having all the family come to visit. We didn't have to travel this year and it was great!


We then took grandma and grandpa to Caveman Resturant. This was their first time going. This old couple bought this cave and they blew out some more of it and put a restaraunt in there. It is so fun, they are only open in the summer due to no heating inside the cave. It just unique. It was a fun week with my parents.

Most of the time we just visited because the kids were in summer school, so it was fun to chat

Go carts at Branson




We then had the little one do go carts, then Kevin and the older kids did the bigger go carts. I didn't get pictures of the older ones, they were going to fast. lol Rylan was so excited he actually squeeled like a girl the 1st time he went around.

FAMILY, FAMILY, FAMILY!



Oh my goodness, where do I begin??? We have had family galore, and it's been fabulous. My parents came out the 17th of July for a week. We had so much fun, we went to Branson and saw Noah, the musical. I highly recommend it. The staging and props were out of this world.
