Peony Parade

Toward the end of May we took the kiddos to the Peony Parade which of course was a disaster...We thought we'd get there a few minutes early for a seat, then the parade didn't get to us until twenty minutes after seating. Parker proceeded to flip out of a chair onto the concrete and get a HUGE knot on her head.

 

woohooo look how thrilled they are

 

Her hair on her right side is covering if but you can see where it's wet from the ice we attempted to put on it until she threw a fit!

Getting ready to stand for the flag.

Jacquelyn's Wedding

In may, yes may we traveled to Cincinnati for my co-worker's wedding.

 

Jim and Brenda

Me and Cindy :)

The group shot!

Group shot part 2

Conveniently located next to the new downtown casino. No children. Early night. Where did we end up??????

Hadley

This girl is something else. So vivacious and always wanting to yell, scream and play hard. While eating dinner she says look.

 

Now she is full of new hand poses....

Plus one tooth down which resulted in a tooth fairy visit. Since this was her first time in our house she visited all the kiddos. Leaving them, of course candy!?!?!?! and a little note about brushing well so she can have pretty teeth from them! Hadley, the green bag got a GOLD coin. She was so fascinated to get a gold coin then she realized she could spend it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This would be a mister potato head smile....she cracks herself up.

A soccer player. Well a nail picker, flirting, flower picking girl. But she has fun...

Summer Fun

My kiddos always try to be photographers. I think Hadley took these two....

Holly came up for a day with her girls. HEAVEN!!!!!!!!!!!!

Man do I miss this crew. These girls used to be together all day then a majority of the evenings since Mark had moved and it was me on solo duty. My Holly nights filled with laughter, fun, and booze are missed beyond words...

Preschool

As I'm buying kindergarten supplies I am finally posting some of the pictures from her big day. I still cannot believe she is old enough for a graduation of any kind even if it is preschool. Where did the time go? She was definitely in her element this day, loving life!!

 

Her sign, which is now on her door!

Getting her diploma from Ms Rhonda....

Hadley's pal Cayden also graduated this year. Look how happy he is!!

The whole school!

Gwen could not understand why she did not get to play too. It was a little frustrating, but Hadley informed me, "I will cry if Gweny doesn't watch," so I was dumb enough to bring her

Oh cousins.....

This little swirly wand lasted about two days in our house before it was destroyed.

Oh my goodness. Little Cayden Wilkinson and Hadley Goins, in the future I will torture you two with this one :)
