Busy...busy...busy

We have had a busy couple of weeks since school let out.

Sam turned five this past week...complete with Slip-N-Slides.

Jack lost his other top front tooth...all he wants for summer is his 2 front teeth.

Molly got on the potty training wagon...thank God for small favors.

And of course...Fathers Day! Mark and his buddy Keith got on a tractor and doubled our lawn! We have enough room for stadium lights and bleechers now. Bring on the nieghborhood ball games. But of course, we found time for bonfires and s'mores. Mark is back to work 6 days a week and my store is starting to get busy. As always, summer is going to go fast!

Random pictures from the last month

Laura and I at the Papa Lou's pizza eating contest.

~FUNNY STORY~

PAST:Laura's mom and my mom are cousins and they grew up on the same road in Saginaw. PRESENT: Laura lives in my subdivision and teaches at Jack (and now Sam's) school. Talk about small world. I had never met the girl. Such a shame...she's great!

I see bonfires and wine in our future!

And, YES, I chopped my hair.

Sam, Molly, and Kailyn...can you say "hams"?

Molly and Marley just relaxing

I believe the song goes "Jack and Kailyn sitting in a tree..."
She calls him her "Boyfriend"
His response "Oh brother"

Sisters...it's a beautiful thing

Matt, Mark and I at the Habitat for Humanity auction

Matt's first volunteer experience.

His exact words were

"Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me."

Jack on Mark's tree stand in our back yard...yes, in our backyard.

Molly...sassy pants. That says it all.

The girl does like to accessorize!

Well, I haven't kept up great but there is us in a nutshell. I'll have more pics of t-ball and Sam's birthday hopefully in the next week or so...I hope!

You might be a redneck if...

...Your son answers to Fred Bear.

...Your son uses the Little Tikes playhouse as a deer blind.

...Your son remarkably resembles Ted Nugent Jr.

Future Class of 2021

Today Sammy hit a major milestone...he completed preschool and never has to go back. Thank goodness. This guy has been ready for Kindergarten for a year now. So, it's off to Kid's Camp for the summer and then to Kindergarten in the fall. Scary to think ahead to 2021 though. If he's 2021, that'd make Molly 2024. Eek!

Megan's 3rd Birthday

We hosted Megan's 3rd Birthday party tonight. It was a gorgeous night and a good time was had by all.

Who missed their daddy?

Just one more picture. The kids missed their dad this week. Can you tell?

Prom

Matt has his prom tonight. I thought I would share a few pictures of him, the "princess" Brooke (as Sam so fondly calls her), me...the proud Aunt, and the girls, Molly and Miss 'Kenzie. Too bad it's only 40 degrees here. Poor Brooke suffered through a few outdoor pictures by the birch tree. It is tradition after all.
