June Birthday

Here are a few pictures from the double birthday party. There were alot of people all of whom were family and it was hard to get alot of good pictures. We did have two of the newest members of the family present, Kayla and Livia, our newest baby girl cousins!

Auntie Becca and Madeline.

















Jordan's most prized possesion, his green light saber.


















I think she is having fun opening her presents. It felt like Christmas having both of the kids opening gifts at the same time.

Field Trip

The kids had a great field trip to a local farm. This was towards the end of the year and we were very glad it didn't rain.

















She had fun feeding bread to the chickens and ducks.


















They saw kittens, bunnies, and pigs in the barn.

















This was before she tried to hold one of the kittens and it scratched her and she started crying.

Preschool Graduation

Here are a few pics from preschool graduation. Madeline did a great job singing for their program, but it was hard to get any good pictures while they were on stage because the place was so packed and the teachers were standing right in front of them helping them with their hand motions.
















All the kids on stage singing.

Madeline has her diploma! She is ready for Kindergarten.

Remembering Mother's Day

These pics were taken on Mother's Day 2008. We had lunch after church at the Outback with my family and Mike's parents. It was a fun day.

Jordan's smile is so cute with his missing teeth!













Madeline is looking so tired in the car on the way there.















It is always hard to get a group family photo. We managed to get me and Mike in this photo but Madeline was probably sitting with various Aunties by this time of the day.
