Party Time....

We made it through graduation night and on to the party!! Hooray!!
We combined Matt's party with two of his classmates, Brianna and Tim.

It takes alot of work to get a party ready to roll, we could use some help from "Super Kimmie"! We had alot of guests and alot of fun in a beautiful location.
Kim and Luke are smiling because there were storms all around us, all day, but we only recieved about 5 minutes of sprinkles.

Gracie, Clare and Nate are enjoying the scenery on "the point" surrounded by water.Matt and Alexis enjoy the last dance of the night.
Congratulations, Matt!
May God bless you on your trip into the future.

A Fun Monday!

My friend Kim and I took a carload of kids to the Museum of Science and Technology for a great start to our week.
I would have to say that the highlight for the kids was the five story tall Science Playhouse.

The playhouse was full of fun, including air guns that shoot plastic balls-a hit with the boys and girls alike.
Gracie enjoyed going on an archeology dig and searching the giant sandbox for fossils.
Mark and Grace tested their mountain climbing ability on the rock wall.
Grace became a human kalidescope in the mirror room.

Thank's Kim, for a wonderful day!

It's Time to Party!

Here we are at the annual friends and family Halloween party. We had a great time. Daddy had to stay home with the babies though. I thought that they would be very uneasy around so many people in costume.

Two beautiful Snow Whites
Kim and family
A lot of smiles for a wonderful time!

A Day on the Farm

Welcome to the farm, I'm glad you stopped by.

We are on the way!

"What for me!"

This brand-new baby goat is just perfect for Gracie.

Luke loved the donkey.



Even Daddy had fun with the animals,


and he was the only one that could feed the peacock!

"What are you looking at?


"Which way do I go?"

"Hey, is Mom still taking pictures!"

"Should I go this way,


or that?"


Our cowgirl Gracie.


Playground time




Gracie is wearing out.



I want to hug just one more goat.


GO! JOSH! GO!

I am not posing with these weird people.


Gracie is one of these weird people!


Oh no, it's not time to go already? What for me!!!!

Holy Cross Soccer Update

The Holy Cross soccer teams are continuing on their winning ways. The girls' team played Union Springs Adacemy today to a nail biting 2-1 victory. The girls' record is now 3 wins and 1 tie.

The boys team, led by my own Matthew, had a very convincing 7-1 win. Matthew leads all players with goals scored. ( I don't know exactly how many goals that is. I will check with the coach-a.k.a. Dad, later.) The team remains unbeaten with a 4-0 record.

Sometimes the games are not all that exciting for the younger family members. Tonight, Gracie found her own sport, rolling down hill with her friend Maddie.


This provided enjoyment for quite a while, until the girls were too dizzy to stand up that is.
