A Van Milestone

The van has hit 100,000 miles!  We bought the van with less than 300 on it, so you can tell we have been going, going, going with it!

Lunches, Lunches, Lunches!

The kids are participating in a gymnastics camp this week and everyday they are to bring a lunch.  This will be what it is like once Tapanga starts going to school!

A Walk in the Park

It was just Tapanga and I tonight, the boys were away in a boyscout camp out. After going out to dinner with my parents I asked Tapanga if she wanted to go to the greenway where I can walk and she can ride her bike. We had a nice time walking even seeing deer along the way. The deer was so close we could almost reach out and touch it! As we were walking I kept looking for markers that would tell us how far we had gone but I didn't see any. We turned around on the bridge and on the way back Tapangas bike broke! The chain came off. I tried to fix it with no luck. Of course this is when I notice a marker. We had gone over a mile! Which now means... I will be carrying her bike for a mile to get back to the car! All in all it was a beautiful walk with nice weather and scenery!

Muddy boy

We spent the afternoon at Susan's house. The big kids played in the pool which created a small mud pit that baby Jax found!

Girls Day Out

After taking students to Holiday World, Sheila said she wanted to go back just adults and do the water park.  So we did!  Five of us went and had a great day, we rode rides, ate junk food and stayed out late!

Love me some rolls!

After our weekend camping trip we wanted to stop for lunch at Lamberts. This is actually part of the reason we chose our camping location! Lamberts is a restaurant that throws rolls around to its customers. Look at moms big salad! If you plan to go make sure you are willing to wait, the line forms fast!

Sleepy girl

Tapanga feel asleep on the way to Missouri. She looks a little uncomfortable.
