Start of a New School Year!!

So today starts the 1st day of new year at school! Mason starts 1st grade and Ava is in the 3 year old Preschool class! I am just amazed at how much they have grown just over the summer. Looking forward to a great school year!!Waiting for the bus!

Exxon Bowling night!!

Once a year Exxon puts on a bowling night at one of the local bowling alleys. We try to go because it is so much fun for the whole family!! Filling our tummies before bowling

Waiting patiently for their turn!

Ava thought that she had to carry the ball and roll it all by herself. So headstrong!!!

Mason getting his ball ready

Abby enjoying being it the fun music atmosphere.

Wipe Out..Recreated!!

The kids new favorite show is Wipe Out! We record it and they just love to watch it...especially Mason. Well Josh gave Mason the great idea to use his imagination and create it in our living room. He uses ALL of the pillows including the cushions for his own personal wipe out. They have a blast, but if this continues much more I may have to get new furniture!!! the red pillows are the big balls and the cushion he is standing on is the motivator. You would had to have seen the show to understand this terminology!!!
Not sure what this was called but it had a name!! He even commentated while running the course!!

Exhausted

So the kids have been wanting to go on family bike rides and are really enjoying it. I on the other am very sore the next day, but I do it for the kids!!!

This time Ava was passed out by the time we got home. Abby was content to just chew on the strap.

Is beauty school in our future?

Aunt Heidi looks happy here, but I think she was in a little pain! Thanks Aunt Hedi for being a good sport!

Every time we see Taunty Ava think she needs to fix her hair. Maybe this s in her future? i could picture it because she loves to chit chat!!!

Favorite spot...

When we go visit Taunty, Nunc, and Abram at their house this is the first place that Abby heads toward..DVD shelf! She enjoys taking all of the DVD down and then proceeds to look at them. I guess we need to start teaching her to pick them all up. At least Taunty and Nunc don't mind!!! In her on little world!!

Look what I have done!
