Fuzzy Wuzzy Worms


The catawba worms are here!!! Austin is so excited to use them to go fishing with. GG said that Papa use to pick them off the tree and put them in a brown paper bag in the fridge until he was ready to use them. And that is exactly what we did!

Catch Up Time!!

I haven't been doing a good job keeping up with the blog. I just added random pictures to show what has been going on in our life over the past few weeks. We've been very busy, but we're having a
BLAST!



Austin got his first "award." (His coach was David Wilks) He was SO proud. He told me that he has to wash it every night to keep it clean. He got started as soon as we got home. It was sparkling clean by bedtime!






Silly Kids

I walked out to check on Austin playing outside one Saturday morning, only to find that he was having a garage sale! He took it upon himself to round up stuff that he wanted to sell. Kiera would be SO proud! (notice the black boots...in his opinion, they are the COOLEST shoes ever!)

Madi loves sunglasses. Very rarely are they actually on correctly, but I happened to catch her for this picture.




Both Austin and Madilyn LOVE the pool. It has become an afternoon ritual. If Austin is good at school and doesn't get him name on the board, we get to go swimming before dinner. It's a great reward that also rewards Mommy (because they are exhausted by the time we get out). We are so lucky to have a pool at our house!














Now that Austin is a reader, Madi loves for him to read her books. He is such a good big brother!





Memory Class Presentation

Austin started attending memory class this year. They meet every Sunday between class and worship services. In memory class, they memorize Bible verses. Austin lead the class in the song of the books of the New Testament. He was so excited!





My Green-Eyed GirlHere are a couple of recent pictures of Madilyn. She's such a doll! Not only did she get my "honker" teeth, but also my green eyes. She's adorable!
