Lagoon Trail

Today Paden, Hadlie and I walked Lagoon Trail. Here are a few pictures under this cool looking bridge.

What have we been up to you ask...

June and July may as well be December for us...not because of the cold weather, but because we are so stinking busy and spend so much money in these months! Here are a few of the many things that have happened since I last blogged (out of order, but you get the idea)...

Paden's Madagascar Pool Party...we celebrated Paden's 4th birthday at Grandpa's pool! The highlights are in this collage which consist of swimming, a hot dog bar, some awesome presents, and a new 4-wheeler for Paden!

We spent a couple weeks rennovating the kids' rooms. We switched the girls room with Paden's because it was bigger. It gave me a chance to paint and redecorate! There are still a few things I want to add, but I need to save up for them!

Father's Day and Ben's b-day always land in the same week, along with both my dad and stepdad's birthdays as well. The little picture is of a "lawn mower" cupcake that the kids made for all the dad's on Father's Day...Take special note of Ben's awesome tie that Macie made him in her Summer Safari Preschool. (Thanks for the laugh Jodi!)

And last, but certainly not least...Macie learned to ride a bike without her training wheels!!! She keeps on telling us, "Mom and Dad, I am just so proud of myself!" She is doing great and is getting better every day!

I hope you enjoyed this little insight into our busy summer. There are quite a few more things that have happened, but come on, I don't want to overwhelm you or me for that matter!
