More Cousin Fun
Michelle and Rhett--this is it! We will see you tomorrow evening. The kids and their bags will be waiting on the curb (just kidding, they've been great). I will, however, try to have them make lots of things for you (to get them out of our house)--like these paintings here, which Owen and Raly made this afternoon.

Normally I'm not real excited about the sandbox, but with water area open, play away!
Miles always makes friends with whatever kids are in the sandbox and "borrows" their toys.

I took the kids for a picnic lunch at City Park today where they enjoyed the new splash pad. I stood on the parking lot side (to prevent escape) and continuously counted the kids...1,2,3,4... paranoid I guess.
Just a shot of the middle area so you can see what it is like, only Owen is in the pic.

Rest of the Day
Let's see...after lunch and before they all napped (amazing), they had a band...
we hit the pool late afternoon and stayed until 6:30; Raly jumped off the board in a life jacket,

Life With 4 Kids--Day 1
After attending a family reunion with some of Adam's family this weekend in Hays (post some pics later) we brought two more kids home with us for a few days. So far, so good. Normally I wouldn't detail the whole day, but we're putting these up for Raly and Reese's Mom and Dad in Denver....
After FOUR potty stops (mostly thanks to Miles) and several movies, we made it home...
where the big kids got out the plastic tablecloth, permanent markers (yikes!) and about 100 pairs of old socks and began the puppet making...

The Next Tiger Woods
Owen has had three golf lessons this week (and has three more next week)--well on his way to becoming the next Tiger. If you can't find him, he's the one on the end with the hat.
Of course, whatever Owen does, Miles does too. His little plastic club only lasted about 5 minutes before he destroyed it.

KC Weekend
Fun weekend in Kansas City (well maybe not completely fun for Adam who was in class all day Saturday and Sunday)--we BBQ'd and hung out at Quint and Susan's to celebrate birthdays and Father's Day. Thanks for having us--it was nice to show up and be fed and entertained :)
The boys each got new KSU b-ball jersey sets. Two more and we'd have a team!

Happy Father's Day to all the dads that I know. We had a great weekend in KC to celebrate the boys' birthdays and Father's Day.

Birthday Boy
Not the best picture, but the only one I could quickly find without other people in it. Hard to believe he turns SIX today--what a big boy!!

ECFN WR VXPPHU!
A code for "back to summer." Since I just finished my class today, I figured I should put some of my cryptology knowledge to work. Now it's officially full time summer--time for more of this (below)!!

The Hangover
After hearing multiple people say how funny "The Hangover" was, we decided we should have a date night and see it. Verdict: Hilarious! See it! Eat popcorn for dinner!

New Ride
We (I) bought this motorized gator from a friend of a friend. The sellers live just a few streets down, so the boys got to drive it home. We don't really have room for it in our garage, but I couldn't pass up the great deal. So far, they (and the neighbor boy) are loving it.

Night at the Museum
These are the last pics taken last week (nothing much from this week since I've been in class all day every day). I took the boys to see Night at the Museum 2. They really enjoyed it--first movie theater experience for Miles, he fell asleep for some of it. Owen and Grant cracked up when there was some kissing and kept quoting the "Boom, boom, fire power!" part.
Fire Power!

B-Ball Camp
I'm catching up on last week's happenings--Owen attended the KSU basketball camp held Mon-Thurs, 8:30-12:00. I thought maybe that would be too much for him (would get bored) but he loved it. During the times I watched, I thought it was very well run. He definitely plans to go back next year. Some KSU jerseys and headbands, etc. will make good gifts for the next birthday and Christmas!!
