Outside Play

 

 

 

 

Some outside shots of Daddy and Ayden tossing the ball, his bee sting (ouch!), and a pirate pool shot.

Butterfly Release

 

 

 

 

McKayleigh has been mothering her caterpillars for a few weeks now- watching them turn from caterpillars, to chrysalids, and now to butterflies. Tonight after dinner, we decided to release her Painted Lady Butterflies on a beautiful North Carolina evening.

My Beautiful Babies

 

 

 

 

I just wanted to post a few simple pictures capturing my beatiful babies today as we released butterflies. I love my life.

Here Kitty Kitty!

 

 

 

 

Our adopted cat from our neighbor's house. She visits us daily and hangs out with the kids. Also, a cutie pie shot of Ayden in the tub.

My Monkeys

 

 

Two little pictures of my little monkeys!

Some pictures of our newest member, Goldilocks the Hamster. McKayleigh brought her back from her visit with her Gramma in Virginia. The kids are in love and can't quit holding her and following her in her purple ball all over the house! We also recently bought a wii- we have been on a hunt for Mario Kart for about a month now and finally lucked out and found ONE copy! Here is the family in some serious racing action!

Happenings...

 

 

 

 

Our hamster, Goldilocks; McKayleigh rocks we began tumbling... only 3 more weeks to go!; and McKayleigh in Daddy's Eaton hard hard he takes on trips with him. (The kids think it's totally cool!)

Happy Fourth of July!!!

 

 

 

I love fireworks! McKayleigh hung in there, but is getting better with them, and Ayden was dancing around the whole time. (He also had some glow necklaces, so he would un-circle them and use them as long swords all night- thus, being extremely happy!) We had a great weekend, great memories, and we love our little town!

Fireworks Anticipation!

 

 

 

 

Some more of us goofing off waiting for the fireworks. The kids became "Junior Officers" by our neighbor, which Ayden thought was pretty cool! (I also was playing around with the night vision on the camera... I won't be using it sans tripod and moving kids again...)

4th of July Fun!

 

 

 

 

The tots playing on a nearby playground waiting for the fireworks to begin. We walked downtown and had a pizza, mingled a bit, then waited for the fireworks. (We killed a little time walking back home and playing some wii!)

Buy Me Some Peanuts and Cracker Jacks...

 

 

 

 

The end of the Forest City Owls game we attended last night. The fireworks were beautiful, the game was exciting, and the kids had a blast! Go Owls!
