Bubble Bath Fun!





A bubble bath in Mommy and Daddy's tub is so much fun! This is a treat for the kids, and they love it!

Reagan's First Cheer Game!











Reagan had her first football game that she cheered for over the weekend. She cheers for a flag football team, and was very excited to be cheering for the boys!! It was quite hot outside, but we all made it! The game included a run through sign, four full quarters, and a halftime that included a performance by the cheerleaders! It was fun and we got to listen to cheers all the way home!

Cousins!







We had the pleasure of having Uncle Paul, Aunt Lydia, Kourtney, Ryleigh, Rachel, and Reese come to visit us on Friday evening. Of course, the kids had a blast. They loved playing and getting the attention of their older cousins! Hudson was a bit outnumbered with all the girls, but he didn't seem to mind!

Fireman in Training!


Reagan and Hudson had a lot of fun playing on Hudson's tricycle. Hudson does not do much walking in the house these days....he would rather ride the tricycle! As he gets a little bigger and stronger, I'm afraid that we will have to take the trike back outside so that our walls and doors can be spared! He and Reagan figured out a way to both ride. He climbed on back and rode. I don't know how many times they went around the island in the kitchen. I was getting dizzy just watching them. Hudson seemed to think he was a fireman hanging on the back of his "fire truck!" Reagan said she was the bus driver and going as fast as she could. They ended with several "sugars" and were very sweet! We are so lucky that they play together well (they also fight with each other well), and love to be around each other!

Happy Rain Dance!











We awoke this morning to a very happy surprise...it was raining! The kids both went outside and did a happy rain dance. It has been quite some time since they have seen any rain. Although we didn't get much rain, anything that we got was much appreciated!
