Four of our little ones are in school this year, and I was a little worried how Kathryn and Abby would do together, just the two of them. Its been a couple weeks now and my worries are gone. They are best of friends truly, and Kathryn is such a good big sister. I love the peaceful feeling when you kids get along and are playing so well. I thank my Heavenly father for knowing me and exactly what I needed right now.
We had a Happy day on September 11th, because we were blessed with two of our children that day, nine years apart. Our oldest Jarom and our youngest Abigail got to share the same birthday so we had a ninja Lego birthday with a touch of pink. Brennan did all the party planning and to quote Addison it turned out to be "the best birthday ever". Brennan started by drilling the kids on the Evil foe they would have to concur, Goon tau Woo-tei. All the kids listened intently, some with a grin and others in confusion with Brennan's personality and the seriousness of his presentation.
He then had the kids do agility tests (walking across a board 1' of the ground), then presented each with a bow staff (a stick) and taught them how to bow, block, and fight. The kids then went on to further training obstacles such as a webbed tight rope, and trowing stars thought tires.
We then took pictures with each of them showing there ninja moves on the tramp
By this time Brennan was all dressed up in his Goon tau Woo-tei costume and came to challenge the ninja warriors. The kids thought this part was great fun, to beat on uncle snags with their "bow staffs" ( he had a lot of padding on)
even Tim and Ammon had to have a turn, but in the end Goon tau Woo-tei fell and the Ninja warriors concurred all.
My first Baby is TEN. Ten years old. Where did the time go. Happy Birthday my little man. I love you.
I can't believe my baby is one!. I'd like a pause, slow, and rewind button so I could replay the moment and enjoy it one more time. I know the order of these pictures is probably all wrong, but you get the idea.
I tryed really hard to convince Matthew to let me take a picture of him in front of the School bell, but he said "not today Mom, maybe on my next day", but Kathryn begged to have one taken of her.
We took the kids to a fun park in Clarsholem for the last day of summer holidays, and it turned out to be a really fun park. Half was a spray park and the other half was a regular park. I'm glad we got to play once more before the tight shedual began.
Abby wondered about through the puddles, often quickening her steps when the spray of water got a little too close for comfort.
Matthew and Jarom kept waring it out with the spray guns.
I think Jarom won.
Lyd's watching the river flow.
While we played at the river Brennan and Kathryn worked away building something with rocks. Just before we left to go home all the kids ran up to me and said "mom, mom come see your surprise". Its a little hard to see but its a heart with a B + H in the middle. I know I'm cheesy But I loved it. My Hubby loves me!
