Scouty: She has become very interested in fishing....actually she would claim that it is her favorite "sport" now....we've been quite a bit to The Avenue pond. This picture is from the water park we went to on vacation...she was way more daring than I thought she would be....riding EVERY slide that was there...I wouldn't even get on some of them! Next week, she is going to Kid's College at Navarro and looking forward to that!
Pearce: This is my little water baby....well, big girl...she LOVES the water and had so much fun at the beach!! There are very few things that scare this little girl, but we managed to find two of them on vacation....at the same place! 1. The Hurricane water slide....after getting off she says, "I will never ride that again!! That thing about broke my neck! Mom, don't try to make me do it....I'm not riding that again...I mean it!" (FYI - I wasn't going to make her ride it again...I wouldn't have gotten on it!) 2. An old wooden roller coaster...she claims that her arms almost fell off. Like Scouty, she too will be attending Kid's College next week!
JJ: Don't let this picture fool you...she wasn't a huge fan of the beach...she would rather be jumping in the pool...over and over and over again. A wave knocked her over the first night and it was a slow process getting her to trust the ocean....she does think I have super powers though and can stop the waves...I had told her I would get in the ocean with her and somehow she interpreted that as I have powers to stop waves. She is loving being home with her sisters all day and almost every day you can find her in an old dance costume for a portion of the day.
**Casey and Johno update (first time readers....these are the girls' make believe friends...they are both ALWAYS with us) Yesterday, Casey and Johno graduated fake school....AND both their moms got awards for helping in the classroom! Don't worry though...school is still in session....summer classes started today...actually going on right now...they are having a welcoming ceremony...Pearce is telling the parents "Your kids are so fantastic!" Jentry has been named the new principal...Ha! Scout is giving a motivational speech - "There are 2,000 schools....2,000 schools! We are 3rd...which is pretty good. 3 out of 2,000! I'm really proud of you all and we can probably do better next year too. Several of you are skipping grades this year....." The rest of the speech pretty much repeated the same thing....LOL!**
I'll end with some pictures from our Gulf Shores vacation...we had a blast!
