Totally in Love

Sunday, June 22


Jennie riding Nellie.

And Josie riding Nellie.

They love her. You should see their eyes soften when they look at her. They literally wrap their arms around her and put their heads on her neck.

It's very sweet.

And all the black hair on their clothes is so disturbing.

Curly Heads

Sunday, June 22

Josie girl was soooo bad in church. I have to blame in on her curls.


I tried to get the matching sister, too, but she kept walked out of the frame. Someone much more important was beside me . . . Nellie. Notice the chipped fingernail polish on Jennie and the rock in her hand.

Getting to Work

Personally, I think it's a little ridiculous Grandma is starting to make them help with dishes already.

Double Rainbow

Friday June 20, 2008




A stormed rolled through Friday night, and this is what it left behind.

Faith was so awe struck. She'd never seen rainbow before . . . that she remembers, anyway.

Little Dance Divas

Friday June 20, 2008

All week, Grace and Faith attended Diva Dance Camp in Waukee, and they had the best time ever. On Friday, they had a recital and it was quite possibly the best time of my life. Grace is amazing. I mean, she is really, really good.

And to put it into perspective, Little Faith is four years old. The rest of the girls are 7 or 8. AND she has a broken arm. And she was great. That's my angel on the top.

Grace, instructor Ben and Faith

LOL - just lol.

Twins' Birthday Party

Just testing this out - Ingrid, now I have to do one with your pics . . . .

And a Few of My Own

June 15, 2008


The idea creator . . . I asked Grace how it went from, "Mom, can we walk down to the creek?" And ended in full-body submersion. "Well, Mom," she said. "It's my fault. I couldn't help it."

Fair enough.



Although not completely innocent, I did feel really bad for Faith, who couldn't fully participate due to her cast. She stood down there for hours, watching the other three have the time of their lives. I said they have to do it again in a couple of weeks, so Faith can have more fun.


A really good sport.
