Field Trip

Callie had her first field trip. It was to the farm.  I had bible study so Mimi came and went with her.  Sounds like they had a lot of fun. Callie had big smiles in all her pictures and she still talks about the animals that she saw.  What fun! Thank you for taking great pictures Mimi!

Trikes and Blues

In Fayetteville each year they have a huge Bikes,Blues and BBQ festival.  It is so neat. Well, they have a trike parade at Carsyn's school.  It is fun.  Carsyn wanted to ride her scooter that Aunt Kristen gave her.  It is one that you have to lean to turn.  She practiced forever.  She loved it.  Daddy came to watch.  It took a few minutes for her to warm up to Mommy and Daddy at school.  She got going though and there was no stopping her.  She LOVED it!

What fun!  We dressed as biker as we can!  Everyone LOVED watching her go! 

Disney

Well I am sad to say it has taken so long to get these pictures up to date.  I am only going to touch on a couple of things of the trip.  I am in the middle of making individual books for each of the girls for them to have forever.  So as you can imagine that is where the detailed info will be.  In the short version.  WE HAD A BLAST!  It was hot but so much fun.  Carsyn asks each day to go back!  We loved the area and the company that went with us.  It was exhuasting but worth every minute of heat!  Callie had NO fear and rode EVERYTHING!  Carsyn was happy to just be with Luke.  They both were great. Carsyn did not want to smile in alot of the pictures but I do promise she had so much fun!

Thank you Disney for all the memories!  It was the best!

What we have going on!

Can you guess where we are going tomorrow????

 Callie drove it straight down the field and man did she give those kids a run for their money!  We talked to her about being more agressive.  Well, it worked all right!

 Tired after all that runinng.  See the armband?  She got to wear  that becasue she was captian!

 She was an awesome cheerleader!  She said that was her favorite part.  Oh no we are in TROUBLE!

Look who got the star of the game!!! We are so proud of you little one!

Grades

Callie had her first spelling test last week.  Well, I am happy to say that the first grade our little girl got was a 100%.  We are so proud of her and all her hard work at school.  She is such a hard worker and loves everything about school.  She is happy to come home and study and do homework.  Wow, do you think that attitude will stay the same for the years to come?

The Lake

Our sweet neighbors invitied us out to the lake for Labor Day.  We were so excited to go.  I love the water and was so excited to get the girls out on the boat.  This was going to be their first time.  The weather was a little overcast but it was not going to stop us at all! 

Carsyn  not to sure about the whole thing yet.  (She ended up loving every minute.)  She slept on the ride over and back on the boat.  She loved getting in the water! 

 Callie and her sweet sweet friends Isabel and Wheatley.  Such great friends!

 Callie ready to go tubing!  She loved it and smiled the whole time!  So fun!

 Ready to go again!

 There we go!  Have such fun!

 Who is that on top of that 40 foot ledge?  That would be Callie and her daddy!  I was a nervous wreck and did not want them to go AT ALL! I was not sure she would jump.  Well........

As you can see she is not standing there anymore.  I did not get a picture because she jumped so quickly I did not have my camera ready.  Can you believe it?  The little girl that was afraid to talk to someone she did not know is now jumping off ledges that are over 40 feet high.  WOW things have changed!
