Fun Night For The Kids

Tuesday night we had a fun play night for several kids at our house. Chad came over with Logan and Laney. We missed Ashley, who was out of town for work. Curtis, Bethany, and Macy walked over from next door. Also, Graham, Leslie, and Ava Grace came down. We inflated the bounce around for the kids to play on. Since it was still wet outside, we decided to put it in the girls' bedroom. We had to move their beds out and rearrange the furniture. The bounce around barely fit, but we managed to get it in the room. The kids had fun on it. At one point, they were all doing "booty" drops. Towards the end of the night, the kids had several balls in the bounce around with them.








We spent some time also playing outside. We took all the play dough out for every one to play with. We made pizzas, snakes, cake with candles, and jewelry. I am not sure who ate the most play dough.




Leightyn, Mylea, Logan, Laney, Macy, and Ava Grace all had a blast playing together. We love having every one over for weekly fun nights.

Boomerang Express













This past week, we had our Boomerang Express Vacation Bible School at church. Leightyn had a blast in her preschool room. She loved her teachers and thought they were "silly and crazy". When asked what she learned this week, Leightyn replied "Jesus rescued Peter, Jesus walked on water like a ghost, and we learned more about that Jesus guy". Friday night, her class sang the cutest song during family night. If you can't see the following video of her class singing. Click on my link to see the adorable video. You will get a good laugh from it.




Splish Splash









This past week, I took the girls to MLK park to play at the splash pad. We had never been there before so we didn't know what to expect. The girls had fun running around in the water. Leightyn liked shooting the water sprayers at me. She also enjoyed the buckets of water that would dump on her head. Mylea enjoyed the sprinklers and the water that shoots up out of the ground. Macy also liked the sprinklers. We will definitely be adding this park to our list of things to do every week.

Leightyn's 4th Birthday Party

We celebrated Leightyn's birthday with many, many, many friends and family members. Leightyn asked to have a princess water slide party. She had a blast during the party. I don't think she quit playing on the water slide until we made her get off to go home (she played again the next day on them). Leightyn picked out a cake with four princess' on and around it. We also had a surprise cookie cake for Landen's 30th birthday. Thanks you every one who attended the party and for the presents. Leightyn loved all of them!



















Blogging Vacation

I am back from my blogging vacation. We have been so busy around here that I have not had time (or maybe I didn't feel like it) to blog. We have been on vacation to San Antonio, Leightyn's birthday party, and then VBS. I hope to get a few pictures from these events posted soon. But I am back and am ready to keep the blog updated.
