Valhalla Sunset

we all have seen sunsets but once in a while there is one that you just have to say WOW

Here are updated pictures on Gavin. He will be 6 months next thursday. He has found is feet, and is working on sitting up by himself. He is such a strong boy. We just got back from our vacation in Edisto Island, SC. All the kids had fun. Gavin enjoyed napping on the beach with dad. The girls of course were busy in the sand and the ocean. We had a great time.

Nothing spectacular--just an update

Claire is 3, and just watched Cinderella for the first time the other day. She was almost in tears, hand over her mouth in shock that Cinderella's family was so mean to her. But, she loved it and would tell anyone the whole story if asked. Stephanie asked her the other day if she was going to give me hugs and kisses when my birthday rolled around, and Claire said "no, its a surprise. It's a lay down swing." Apparently, Austin told her that he was getting me a hammock and told her it was a surprise. Good job Claire. Maddox is still as crazy as ever (2 in September). His new thing is making a mess, and then saying "oh...my..........GOSH! Maddox did" as he looks at the mess, almost like he's surprised himself. He also loves telling Cody (our dog) that he's a bad dog, and has now begun telling Claire and I that we are bad dogs too if we do something he doesn't like. Austin and I just purchased new windows for the house, and they should be delivered and installed the beginning of September. We also just got a new patio door, but the installer for that is Austin, so it's unknown when that will be done, as I've heard that's quite a job....We also just got new living room furniture delivered a couple weeks ago, so our house is finally getting to where we want it. Next year, we'll finish the landscaping, and then I think we'll finally be done... for a while. :)

Dayton Air Show

We couldn't go to the Sink Hole party because we already had plans to go to our very first air show. The Blue Angels were there, and our boys have LOVED the Blue Angels ever since we saw them practice last year, so we couldn't resist.

We drove over on Saturday and went to the show on Sunday. It was a long day, we got there at 9:00 and they were the final performance at 3:30. It was hot and the boys were tired (no nap on the way to OH???? bad night of sleep in the bed together and no nap all that day.) Grant was actually falling asleep in my arms as the Blue Angels were starting! I sprayed him in the face with a water bottle to wake him up, nothing else was working!

After the performance, the pilots came over to the fence we were standing beside and gave autographs and talked to the kids. Camden and Grant had on shirts and hats that said "Future Blue Angels" and the pilots all commented on them!

All in all, we had a great time. Carl and I put in a lot of hard work for the boys to enjoy a 30 minute show, but we would do it again.

Here are a few pictures from our day:
