Fun with Kenzie

On Tuesday, Kenzie got to go to Hoops Balls Racquets and fun with us! They had a blast!

At the park

We've had lots of fun this summer going to the free lunch program at the parks!

Grizbee!

Yesterday we DJed an event for MDA at This Is The Place park, and brought the kids along. Grizbee was there, and the kids were THRILLED!

It was 100 degrees today...

...and this is how we kept cool!

Hoops Balls Raquets and Fun.....Fun!

Here is the FUN part of Hoops Balls Raquets and Fun! This is Allison and Samuel doing The Hokey Pokey. Allison was all about it, and Samuel wasn't quite sure!

Hoops Balls Raquets and Fun....Raquets and Balls!

Here is the "raquets and balls" pictures from Hoops Balls Raquets and Fun!

Hoops Balls Raquets and Fun....Hoops!

Allison and Samuel had their first "Hoops, Balls, Raquets, and Fun!" class today! They LOVED it! These are pictures from the "hoops" part of the class. Samuel LOVED jumping like a frog through the hoops! You could hear a little voice echoing "Ribbit!" throughout the whole room! Very cute! And Allison is SUCH a big sister leading her little brother right along!

Shivers

The kids' new favorite place to go for dinner is Shivers. They LOVED eating on the train...the only trick for US was actually getting them to EAT on the train instead of PLAY on the train!

Same outfit!

Allison and Kenzie have another matching outfit! Grandma bought them this one. Samuel got a Thomas The Train pajama set, but had already changed by the time I took pictures. I'll post his the next time he wears it.

Driving Uncle Chad's COOL car!

Samuel LOVES anything to do with cars, loud noises, or big machines. My brother, Chad, has a red sporty Firebird. Samuel LOVES driving it! When we took him out of it, he was SO mad! The whole way home, he was in the back seat mumbling "No mommy's car! Want UNCLE CHAD'S CAR!" It was really cute!

No doubt as soon as he's old enough he'll be joining Grandpa, Uncle Chad, Uncle Gary, and Uncle Russ up at "the shop" to fix cars!

Playing at Arctic Circle

It was a rainy day, and the kids wanted to go to the park, so we went to good ole Arctic Circle. The kids had a blast!

NKOTB tickets!

Yep, that's right! Katie and I are going to New Kids On The Block concert on November 15th at the E Center! Do you really think we wouldn't go?! We got our tickets yesterday. Because we're poor, we got the crappiest seats available, but we're still SO excited to be going! The last time we saw NKOTB in concert was September of 1990....or was it 1991? I can't remember. I think we were 12 then! I'll have to pull out my journal from that day and re-read it. It would be funny! I asked Allison if she wanted to go with us, and she said "No mom! I would be too embarrassed!" She is definitely Russ' daughter! Anyway, we're really excited to go and scream like 12 year old girls, even if we are on the very back row! We'll outscream everybody! :)
