Graduation!

Our little Lexi Lue graduated last week from Preschool. It is official! She is growing up. I cant believe how fast the years go by. I am not looking forward to kindergarten although she is excited. She just tells me that she will stay home on the days when she wants to be with me and go to school on the others for a little bit. If only it were that easy. Lexi with her friends! Getting a little sad at not seeing her teachers anymore. (She got over that pretty quick!) After graduation we had a little party to celebrate. Way to go Lex. We love you.

Fishing!

It was a gorgeous evening and Kevin had to do a treatment at his farm with the pond so we decided to take the kids fishing again. One of the boys got the hook stuck in all the moss so Kevin had to break the line. Nathan did some fishing of his own and got the hook out of the moss. We retied it to the pole....which Kevin told me would never work....Nate put the bate on and we were set to go. About 30 seconds later we caught this fish. The pole was bending and I was freaking out. Kevin came and helped pull it in but we didn't have a net so when he lifted it out of the water the line broke (not where I tied it!!!) and it almost got away. Kev reached down and grabbed it and got it out. Nate was so excited. He said that since it was his pole and he put the bait on that it was his fish. That was fine with me! It turned out to be a great night. This is Nate scaring Mason with the fish. Even our little princes held the fish. Yuck! Now that's a big mouth (bass) We put the fish in a bucket and by the end of the night Mia had soaked her hair and slicked it all down with fish water. Double yuck!

'F"

Kevin only had one job and that was keep Lexi from falling asleep at 4:30 in the afternoon. He failed! I did give him an "A" for the dad job though. She loves to snuggle with Him.

The Flour Bandits strike again!!

Kevin asked me how many times they would have to throw flour all over my kitchen before I decide to move it. I told him when I get tired of taking their picture! Besides, if it's not flour it would be something else!

St. Louis

We made a quick trip to St. Louis to attend the baptism of our Niece Maria. Kevin was able to work it out with his farms so we left Saturday at 10:30 and made it to the baptism just in time for the opening prayer. We got to hang out with grandma and grandpa, Uncle Brett and Aunt Haydee and Maria and Sophia for a few hours. Then we went to the hotel, had a quick swim then off to bed just to wake up at 7am and head back home. It was great to see everyone and be there for Maria. But I have to say my favorite part was getting Kevin all to our selves for almost 24 hours. The babies were a little shy at first but very quickly warmed up. They even gave uncle Brett a hug before we left. That can be pretty scary. The kids were breakin it down to a song that Haydee turned on. Even Grandma joined in on the fun. (stay tuned for a video of that!!)

Amazing!

Loved this! I could listen to it all day long.
