Reagan strikes a pose...








We were out at Nan and Da's house on Sunday and Reagan grabbed some more flowers and starting "striking a pose." She was hilarious! I don't know how she learned to act like she was modeling, but that is exactly what she was doing! She is such a typical girl! Unfortunately, I tried to capture some photos of Hudson that day too, but none actually had his face in them. He kept turning away with each picture!

Swimming together...




It has gotten warm enough to get the small swimming pool out of the garage and enjoy it in the afternoons. We have been able to get it out a few times and the kids love it every time. I imagine one of these days, the kids will be asking for a much larger pool. We will enjoy this small one for as long as we can!

Silly Faces of Hudson Reid!










Hudson has a very silly personality. You can often find him laughing at himself or something that he is thinking about. He also has learned from Reagan how to make silly faces and has great expressions! I was happy to actually capture some of his "faces" the other day...he definitely has a mischievous streak in him...can't you tell?

Reagan loves Flowers!






With the new camera, Reagan decided to pick a flower and ask me to take some pictures. I love these pictures because she looks so happy, and so much like herself! She truly has a love of life and can always find something to smile about!

Together....





We got a new camera this week, so of course, I had to take some pictures! The kids are getting better at taking pictures together and not complaining about it! Hudson would still rather be running around instead of sitting still for pictures, but he is at least tolerating it! Reagan is a typical girl and will stop and smile for any camera!

End of Soccer Season












Reagan had her last soccer game on Saturday. We weren't sure that she would be able to play since we had gotten some storms the night before, but it went on as scheduled. Despite the mud, the girls did a great job and scored several goals. Reagan didn't get a goal this week, but was close a few times. She did a great job and had a great season! She is already asking about playing again next year.....

Hudson's Boots!






Hudson wanted to dress up a little for Reagan's recital too. He found some jeans in his closet and his boots! He had to show them off a little before the dancing began!

Reagan's Dance Recital










Reagan did have a busy day on Saturday. After her first soccer goal, we went home, had some lunch and then got ready for the recital. She loves getting dressed up and thoroughly enjoyed getting into her costume, curling her hair, and putting just a tiny bit of make-up on for the recital. Plenty of pictures later, the dancing began! I was impressed at how well all the girls did. They performed a ballet as well as tap dance and had a lot of fun! She even came home with a trophy and some flowers!
