Legoland



I know these pictures are awful.  The first 2 pics are typically what I get when I take pictures of kids who really want to go! But we need proof that we went!  I actually took the pic on our way out of the aquarium a few days later and we were headed to the beach  But, I didn't bring my camera when we went to Legoland .

Thanks to the public library for the Legoland tickets.  We had a blast.  We went as soon as it open and stayed until it was dark and closed.  Since it was more geared for little kids the oldest 4 could go on any ride they wanted to.  We learned a few things:
Reese:  Loves roller coasters.  But doesn't like rides that go straight up and then drop down
Kendall:  Loves roller coasters, going high, and fast.  Hates spinning (teacup like rides)
Savannah:  Loves spinning and spinning fast.  Not fond of going WAY high and only want to ride the water roller costers and not the other ones
Bronson:  LOVES ANYTHING YOU PUT HIM ON!
Hudson:  Hated the ONLY ride he was big enough to ride on (and I had to lie and say he was 2 to ride an airplane ride (like the dumbo ride)  Screamed the entire ride!
We all were happily tired and headed home!

Things not to forget



* How your cheeks jiggle and bounce when you run

* How you bring me the food you want me to feed you

* How you can light up a room with your smile

* Your bouncy curly hair

* Your snaggle tooth and how you can use it to pry open sippie cups!

* How much we adore you!

Last days of summer











I love the freedom that summer gives you.  Easy and fun for all!
(And don't look too close...I may have forgot to brush anyone's hair this particular morning...and I love that I didn't DO much hair at ALL!)

CHICKS

 Me and the girls finally got to finishing the chicken coop.  The girls picked out the colors and painted it themselves!!
 Savannah I think got more paint on herself then the coop

 After they were done Bronson decided to come out and help ):  UGH
 The chicks moved in and like it alot better than their box!
 The girls kept with their creativity and even made this swing in the chicken area



 The neighbors dog......checking everything out (Kinda scary)







BRONSON is a chicken Lover!  HE loves to pick up OMLET and give her a kiss!!  Hudson...loves the chickens a little TOO much and has to look them from a distance(:
