Gone fishing!

                             We finally got a battery for Conner's gator!


                                           Driving the pontoon!! YIkEs!!
                                         Tryin to get a tan.

                                                       Carter wanted to cuddle!

                                        The one and ONLY fish Josh caught! Hard to beleive, but at least we caught one.
                                     Another cool abandoned house on a island across from Stout's. I really wish we could go in there, but its really weedy and prob kinda dangerous.
                             Josh said he looked in there once awhile ago and there was still furniture in there. So cool.
                                               Poor lonely house!


                                      The island its on.

            Friday is Joshs birthday, not sure what we are going to do for it yet. He hates cake so that's out of the question. I have to think of something creative. I will have to show pictures and tell what kind of creative thing I came up with, lol. If anything. Ha
      So I put my entries in the fair today. I will be putting three different kind of picture series, a slideshow, which is really cool. (They actually dont have a category for slideshows, but they squeezed mine in there with the photo category, which was really nice of them.) Also, I will be making chocolate chip cookies and putting one of my Lillies in too. So lots more than I've ever put in, but really excited to do this. I love the fair! I also got my mom to put her yummy Zucchini bread in the fair and her peanut butter cookies too!
   Anyways, hope everyone has a awesome fourth of July, if I'm not on here before then. God Bless!!

Dragonfly!


                                Conners lil friend the Dragonfly. We kept it for about 20 min. then it was time to say good bye. Conner did not like that idea at all, but later calmed down and just said, hopefully I will catch another one. I did explain that he needed to go home and be with his family. And also they eat mosquitoes and that's a really good thing.
                      Just wondering do you all think I should use the pics with Conner and the dragonfly as one of my picture entries in the fair?? Let me know, thanks!
                                               Pretty color!

CiRcUs!!








The Circus was so fun. We went before it started to get a close look at the elephants which was amazing. They are such HUGE animals. So the show lasted 2 hours. And before it was done me and the boys and my dad went on an elephant ride. Sooooo cool. I will post pics of that later. So we had a great night and the boys are exhausted. :)





                                 This elephants name is Betty.  I talked to the guy that takes care of the elephants and he said these elephants are from generations and generations of elephants from Asia. He also said that a few of them were in a movie with bill something, I can't remember what he said. It was a older movie though he said there was elephants in the end. Anyways pretty cool to learn about that.

Fun in the sun!

 I will be posting more pics soon. Conner was in a kiddie tractor peddle pull tonight. So much fun, he pulled it 7 feet! Which is good for his first time. So proud of him. He can't wait to try again next year. If he gets first place he could go to state and win even bigger prizes! lol Fun night. We have a filled week ahead of us and friday night is Circus!! We love that. Then Sunday the Aquafest parade!

 Today at the Library I met a lady who has a little boy, Carters age. Anyways, she is from Korea and married a man from the U.S. he is in the army. She doesn't know much english and doesn't have any friends. So I talked with her for awhile and we switched emails and  what not. So please keep her in your prayers. She misses her family in Korea. But I hope I can become a good friend to her and help her meet others. Every one needs friends so I feel bad she doesn't have any. Enjoy the pics!
