Eli and Kiley like to play 'boy' and Kiley
dresses up in his clothes and tries to talk
tough...it usually does not last long and
she goes back to her dresses and babies and
most often it is part of some negotiated deal where
she will play 'boy' with Eli and then he has to
play baby with her...that is why she has on
Eli's clothes if anyone wondered.
The kids were very excited about Brian's father's day card.  I saw the candy card idea on pintrest so I let the kids pick out candy and make up what they wanted to write (Eli really liked the example I showed him so much is the same but he did change a few things and add his own) Kiley was most concerned with making sure Daddy knew he could share with her if he wanted...
We have been enjoying summer fun.  Trips to the creek, waterfall, lake, swimming lessons, parks, birthday parties, back yard bible club...
hunting for tadpoles and minnows

Kiley and Savannah showing off their minnow
collection - I am pretty sure they both would have
 spent hours catching and playing with their 'fish'
if we let them...

very excited about the frog she caught...


just hanging out with friends before they move...
my princess loving the mud paint

getting all painted up
Sweet Kiley is adding to her scar collection.  She had stitches after getting hit with a bamboo stick between the eyes...  She did wonderful with them, no crying and very brave through the numbing shots and all the stitching up.
Just have to catch up ... sorry

We had another trip to sweet berry farms this time with Daddy and on a weekend so we could enjoy the animals too.  We picked more strawberries and blackberries as well as onions and Eli dug some potatoes.  Delicious food and great family fun.  Also had to get some of their homemade ice cream after all the work or picking...
