More Vacation Pictures.....

CT loved the sea lions. They were pretty cute!
I think we rode this ride 3 times before we got off. He had a blast!! It about made me sick. :)
Bob the Tomato and Larry the Cucumber.
The swings we had to pry KG off of. She kept saying "NO Bye Bye, NO Bye Bye!"
CT and Daddy won the race! They did not let anyone pass them. Of course CT thought that was WAY cool.

Vacation Cont......

Mommy and KG on the "fairest" wheel.
Daddy and CT on the "fairest" wheel. That's what CT calls it. If you try to correct him on anything he always says, "Well, that's what I call it."
Aladdin ride. They giggled and laughed on almost every ride.
Driving the bumble bee.
CT was pumped about his happy face pancake, of course he only ate half. He had to share with his sister. :) She ate every last bite. :)

VACATION!!!

KG and CT relaxing and Mimi and Poppa's house.
CT and Henry enjoying their meal. When Henry was done he threw his plate on the ground. :)
The Family
Wheelbarrow Ridin'- When the "motor" started getting tired the kids decided they needed a younger motor. AKA-Uncle Chris or Chad. :) They were nowhere to be found. :)
KG got her fair share of cake. She ate every last bite.

*This past week we finally took a MUCH needed vacation. We headed down to FS where my parents live and spent some time with them and Uncle Chris who came in from NYC. CT got up that morning and put on his NYC shirt just for Uncle Chris. :) That boy thinks ahead. While my parents had the kids they lost the beloved "bankie". My mom and I back tracked everywhere they had been. Only in FS can you pull up to the mall and at 10:30 run into someone you know to go in the mall and look for a "bankie". It was no where to be found so my mom got up early the next morning and headed to a little shop on town that carries them. THANK GOODNESS. It would have been a long trip ahead. I think we were more traumatized than KG. She probably would have been just fine. :) She is thrilled with her new "bankie" and doesn't even know the difference.

*Then on Saturday we headed up to NW Arkansas to see Uncle Chad and the rest of my cousins. We had two missing and missed them terribly. Although that meant extra potato salad and chocolate pie for me. :) We all had a GREAT time! We also got to stay in Uncle Chad's new townhouse. It is really cute and he is thrilled to have it! While at my Aunt and Uncle's house the kids got to run around and play with their second cousin Henry. He is a cutie! They had a wheelbarrow ride and plenty of chocolate cake! Mee Maw got to join us and she enjoyed getting to see the kids run around. I'm sure they wore her out though.

*On Sunday we then headed to the big metropolis of Branson! We were a little disappointed when we got there only to find out that Silver Dollar City was closed for the three days we were there. Wouldn't you know. Not so great planning on my part. It ended up working out though. We took the kids to Celebration City and White Water. They had a blast! CT rode every ride he could. There were plenty he wanted to ride, but he was not tall enough. We had to pry KG off of the swings. Since we were there on an off week the kids got to ride as much as they wanted. We also got to see the Chinese Acrobats who were incredible!! Then on Tuesday night we went to Dixie Stampede. That was fun! Although T and KG left with their allergies all stirred up. :( We ended our trip with a detour through Bolivar to see some old friends of Daddy's. It was a lot of fun to be together as a family!

First Day of Wee School! Yipeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

First Day of School.
Come on boys. I don't have time to wait on you. :)
KG in her classroom playing.

Today was the first day of Wee School. I think I might have been more excited than the kids. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE being at home with them, but I also LOVE Wee School. :) They both went right in their classes and didn't even hardly know I was there to say goodbye. Which is wonderful. That makes it easy. There were several children in KG's room crying. She didn't even seem to notice. She went right to playing. It probably helps that they practically live there anyway. I don't know that KG knew it was any different except that she was there longer than normal. :) Here are some sweet pictures of their morning. Enjoy! Notice KG has her "bankie" in every picture. :) She is a mess! I will try to get some of CT in his class on Thursday. It was a zoo in there and I forgot to take some.

KG's Nap Mat

This past Sunday as I was dropping KG off for Sunday School they informed me that they were bumping her up a class for wee school. No problem except for that she would need a map. Not a big deal for the average non-perfectionist mother. The problem is that I made one for CT so it was only fair that I make one for KG too. So after lunch I headed to Mar-Marts as CT calls it and loaded up on girly fabric and ribbon. I thought it turned out pretty cute, and she is awful proud of it. She put her baby to sleep in it the other day. Not that KG will actually sleep in it at school. :) Good luck with that Miss. April. I will have to say they are nice on trips. You can have them sleep anywhere. :) It also folds up to where you can carry it. :)

Side note:No I cannot make one for your precious child. I'm too expensive. :)

Birthday Bash!!

CT Sliding! He loved this thing. I had to drag him off at the end.


CT swinging for the pinata. He actually hit it.
Birthday Boy!

This past weekend CT and KG were invited to one of their little friends B-Day parties. They had inflatables and a water slide! The kids had a ball. We also got the special treat of some of our friends who have moved caome back for a visit. CT was thrilled. Kylie is one of his favorites!! The kids also got a try at busting open a pinata. That was a little dangerous, but they loved it! Especially when all the candy came out. Happy Birthday "Nane" as KG calls him. :)

Preacher Man!!

This past Sunday T got the priviledge to preach at church. We are without a pastor right now. We do have an interim, but he was gone. So T got to speak. He did an AWESOME job. Not that I am biased or anything. :) You can check it out by clicking here. Just click on T's name. He just wanted to share how BIG our God is and His Glory!! Enjoy!!
