Happy Birthday Alex and Kelsey!

We went to Alex and Kelsey's house this afternoon for a birthday party! Aleigha thought she needed to lounge in the sun...

Kelsey was swinging the girls around in the kitchen one at a time...then Aleigha grabbed on and wanted a turn too! It was quite a sight!

Time for Alex to open his gift from us...what could it be? He turned 21! What does every 21 year old need??? WOODCHUCK!

Kelsey's turn! She looked excited to get the flashing pin that said "Birthday Girl!"

Whittney and Aleigha wanted to help her open her gift!

To go with the movie theme, we made cupcakes...frosted them with white frosting...then covered them with mini marshmallows...to make the bowl look like it was filled with popcorn!

Denise brought a jar with a caterpillar! Aleigha needed a closer look.

Cake time! Aunt Avis made both of the cakes!

Alex blows out his candles!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALEX (21 YEARS OLD) AND KELSEY (18 YEARS OLD)!!!

Jonah Comes Over

Aleigha has been working hard to earn stickers for sleeping all night in her own bed. Today she had her friend Jonah over to play. They had fun playing outside!

Jonah picked a flower and gave it to Aleigha...it was so sweet!

Buddies!

Driving around...

Playing in the water!

Carving Pumpkins

Today Susan came over and gave the kids a golf cart ride. We went over to her garden and picked tomatoes and pumpkins. The kids wanted to carve them when we got home!

Extravagant

We were getting ready to go out...and Aleigha is ready!

Playing in the Mud

Today the kids watered the garden. After a little watering, they had the brilliant idea to play in the mud. It was entertaining!

Happy to be in the mud!

Whittney is teaching Aleigha to make mud pies!

Playing At Grandma's

Grandma was watching the boys this afternoon and asked the kids to come over and play. It was another afternoon at the pool!

All six of the kids in the pool!

Cheese!

Now Brendan is trying to blow up the floatie.

Dalen is thinking about what he could do...

Much better...

Gavin being a little silly.

Dalen...

Aleigha has been watching Gavin a little too much...

Dalen...

Not so excited about riding the four wheeler with Uncle Nathan.

Now Brendan wants to try out the floatie.

Busy little guy...

Playing At Friend's

We went over so the kids could play with Hayden, Cadence, and Corbin!

Playing in the water and jumping on the trampoline was on the agenda for the afternoon.

Fun, Fun, Fun!

Visiting Grandma Till

We stopped to see Grandma Till today. She had a butterfly in a jar and some caterpillars.

Aleigha liked watching the butterfly flutter around the jar.

Aleigha found a tape measure and had some fun!

More Zucchini Bread

Aleigha was ready to make more zucchini bread after school today. She is the baker!

First Day of School!

Gavin is saying good-bye to his buddy...and wishing him well when he leaves for school.

Whittney and Gavin ready for school...first grade and third grade this year!

All smiles on the first day of school!

The kids got on the bus at Joyce's house...like they will when mom officially goes back to work. Grandma Suzie and Mom waited with the kids this morning. Cadence and Whittney were excited for their first day of school.

Hayden and Gavin waiting for the bus!

Aleigha and Corbin were just like the big kids waiting for the bus!

The bus is coming... Whittney is waving to Aleigha and Corbin.

The boys got on the bus first...no ladies first today! I guess they were more excited for school to begin!

After the kids got on the bus, Aleigha was ready to get into Joyce's house to play with Jonah.
