Threshing Bee

When was the last time you attended a threshing bee? Yeah, we had never been to one before either. What a hoot! And why did we not know about this Jack Creek Farms place?! Very fun, very family place to visit. And they have events happening all the time; at least it seems like that for Fall anyway.

While you're in the air...

When we were in the car yesterday Serafina was describing how to do a front flip. "First you dive forward, then when you are in the air living the good life, you focus and land on your feet!" Could more truer words be spoken?

Wineries and the Greats

Great grandfathers, that is. We visited a couple wineries today with two great grandfathers!

Bob Jones Trail

While Tracy and Matt were out celebrating their tenth anniversary, the rest of the family and some of the Phillips family joined us for us a hike down the Bob Jones Trail, some play time at the Avila park, and dinner from the Hula Hut. What a day!

The Worst Combination of Kids at Costco...

...is AJ. Or so Tracy quipped at lunch today. We about split a gut, and it reminded us of the pics we took one day at Costco with the aforementioned child. (This picture was taken last December.)

Music Stand = Belt It Out

The next thing we knew... AJ walked up to the music stand (American Girl size) sitting on the coffee table and started belting out "Jesus Loves Me"! Don't you start belting out songs whenever you see a music stand!?

American Girl "Gymnapstics"

 

Serafina is very excited about her new American Girl gymnastics equipment. She says, "First day of gymnapstics (sic) for McKenna. Do you wanna go?!" Coach Serafina lends a hand. Serafina's now got McKenna off doing balance beam and floor exercises...
