Makena...I told her to look at me and she did that silly pose!

Bumps and Bruises

Miss Hailey has had her share of bumps and bruises on her head lately. The one scab cleared up and then she got 3 more bruises. The one on the right is from Tyler pushing her down the stairs, the lower left one from hitting her head on the edge of our ledge by the fire place and the upper left one was from the sidewalk. Poor little one!

Sleeping

Kali asleep on the couch today. She cuddled in the blanket and went to sleep!

Rock Climbing

After we caught the water skeeters, the kids played at the rock climbing park close by.

Skeeter Catching

Last week we took the kids to catch skeeters. They would spend hours and hours catching them, if we let them. We did spend about 2 hours, however. It is a fun time for us! We have just as much fun as the kids!

Tyler got one!

Looking at all the skeeters they caught

Hailey spilled our bucket of skeeters...so we had to start all over. At one point we had about 30 skeeters before they got dumped out.

Kali stepping on the rocks to get to the other side. The other side had better skeeters to catch!

Kali would catch the skeeters in the net and then pick it up with her hand. She didn't want those skeeters jumping out of the net.

Hailey mad that Dad took the skeeters away from her

Makena getting to the other side. She was more careful this time, the previous time trying to do this, she fell in the water.
