Bangs!!


So Mads has been begging for bangs for about a year now. I think that my own experience with bangs had slowed me down on letting her have some. She has asked at least once a month and longingly admires ANY girl that has bangs. It may have been that seeing pictures of myself with MY bangs makes me cringe because my bangs must have skimmed the ceilings to any room I once entered, but I finally gave in. They turned out cute. Thanks Shalon for a cute do!

Fun Cousin Times

Going to the Griffeth Observatory. We watched a neat star show that GIb was terrible at...I think we was worried I had taken him on some fast, dark, spooky Disneyland ride. He wouldn't sit in the seat the entire time and clung to my neck like I was going to feed him to crocodiles.
Watching airplanes with pizza. We first were on the ground...until my Dad spotted ticks on our blankets. Nothing like watching them fly over you from the roof of the car. (All the kids on my sister's car that is. Don't worry only me and Ang read this and so she may never know)

We had so much fun visiting Oak Glen. We visited a little one room school house and the kids played at a fun park. Then we topped it all off with strawberry picking and playing in the tree. It was fun to have all the kids together. They can never get enough and the time goes too quick. Nate even made us yummy strawberry shakes...it must be the Peach City touch.



Rock Climbing...this beats the climbing they did on our extra LONG bike ride. Of course Angie and I didn't participate in either of the rescue efforts of the children, but at least we didn't have to worry about snakes getting the kids at this climbing event...RIGHT ANG?


The Ferry Bed and Breakfast...this would be the children's room...minus a few heads.




We have had some non stop fun with cousins lately and LOVE IT! We have great rates and meals for anyone up for some fun Southern California times!!! Can't promise the sleeping arrangements, but they might be comfortable. Poor Hannah doesn't seem to mind the laundry room and kids get to bunk together. One night we held 8 adults and 10 kids and I could have kept lit our vacancy sign out front. The trampoline hadn't been used yet!! We love our family and we LOVE visitors. Plan that trip!!
