summer summer summer

We had a pretty great start to our summer, well actually all 5 kids were sick for the first 2 weeks of summer. But we have made up for it since.

Family Friday nights at the zoo! Princess Rosa and Brave peyson

Feeding the ducks. For some reason I really love pics of the back of my kids, they look so sweet! On this day a mean goose bit Peyson on the rear end, I laughed so hard and lost points on the loving mom scale!

This year we added the science center to our membership pass and the kids LOVE it we have gone twice so far and they had a blast

Happy siblings! at least for this brief moment

the play place is the only place my kids play well together and dont argue

Graduation!

Well our sweet girl graduated preschool! It was a lavish affair, and good fun was had by all! I did not cry, but have teared up at the every thought of our summer being over and her starting kindergarten! Rosa is getting smarter and smarter every day, she is learning to read and cat wait to start school!

Gotcha day!

In May it has been 2 years since we adopted our sweet boy! It is amazing how time has flown. He is a bundle of never ending energy. He keeps going and going and going. He can be as naughty as all get out, but he makes it up by being a sweet loving boy. This week a boy at church was teasing Logan and Bryant hit him and said "that is my brother, dont hit him" So his heart is in the right place!

Bryant Matthew we love everything about you! We love your super stubborn streak, it drives me crazy but I know that as you grow that stubborn streak can serve you well. I love your laugh, it is contagious. I even love your crazy infatuation with water. I cannot imagine my life without you! You make me smile even when I dont feel like it. We love you sweet boy!

We celebrated the day by going to the Omaha zoo. Our good friends Andrea, Leland and Kaden joined us. The kids had a great time!

The aquarium at the omaha zoo is great. The kids love the shark tunnel, but my favorite part of zoo is this turtle!
