More Summer Fun--zoo--six flags!

Elena getting a kick out of the goats! I love the Children's Zoo!

Yeah, well, I scoffed at many who were getting inside this fountain--well, we were hot, so by the end of the day, we ended up doing the same thing! Shame shame!

The kiddos had such a blast! I had a blast watching them! Oh, to be a kid again!

This was the day that Elena had gotten her cast off--I had to dress her up and make a big deal of it! She did soooo well! The flowers are from my flower pot!

Vincent loves Looney Tune Land!

Best buds! We had a good time having the kids over our house for a couple of days! They played together so well, and Devan got along with our neighbor, Maddison! Both kids are sooo likable and helpful, responsible little girls--and sooo smart!

Elena trying to ride this tricycle.

Will being brave about petting the snake!

My babies doing well on the kiddie rides--no crying going on!

More Studio Pics--This Time With the Cousins!

Well, we tried to get a picture of all the grandkids together for Grandma Gloria, but Elena was in a clingy mood--she would not cooperate for anything! She does fine in a picture sitting with her brother or by herself, but I think she thought I was going to leave. Who knows--she's close to 2--right?! I thought the pics of her cousins were just adorable. We really didn't get many good shots of Vincent, but he did just get his picture taken 2 weeks ago! Anyway, we did end up going with a collage of the kids and the one with the kids sitting all together on the couch! It does show off their personalities! Good times! We will just have to try it again--perhaps the next time, if I am not there, Elena may end up doing better. I still think these are great! We had fun that day spending time with Karson and Kayla! I just wish we had more summer time fun to spend with them--school almost starts! Our summer was cut short due to getting out of my school year sooo late, and Lena's broken arm! Poor baby--she is making up for it now! She is just as silly and crazy as ever! She partied like a rock star at the Pearl Heart/Gretchen Wilson concert--she had sooo much fun dancing her tail off! I could have summer all year around!

Elena's 2nd Year Studio Pics!

My baby girl is almost 2 years old--just right around the corner! She is sooo crazy and such a handful! She just recently got her cast off, so I had to rush and get her pictures taken. She has recently started talking soooo much with sooo many words to add to her vocabulary. I was getting worried for a while, but I feel much more at ease now. I mean she is saying everything! "They" say when it comes, it comes on like an explosion! Let's pray she slows down a little bit with her crazy antics! She is forever trying to do stuff she shouldn't do--enter the daring 2's! She is sillier than Vincent at this point--always trying to outdo her big brother and contstantly taunting and teasing him--silly girl! I love you soooo much!

JCPenny Pics--Vincent 4 Years Old!

These were taken last week--July16th! My 4 year old is getting to be such a big boy! He loves Ben 10 and Ben 10 Alien Force! He has such a great imagination and loves his baby sister, even though she is forever taking his toys away! We love practicing our bike with training wheels and love getting to go to the zoo with friends and family. I feel bad that his summer was cut short with my teaching schedule and Lena's broken arm, but the weather really hasn't been warm enough to do much swimming! It is going to be soooo hard to go back to work so early....but I am going to to try and keep fun outings going through the fall as well! I love you, Vincent!
