Monday Fun

Rylee has such pretty handwriting. We think it resembles a computer font!

More digging, digging, and digging!


Our precious boys!


Chloe found a baby clam.

On the move and ready to roll.

Daddy's little girl.


We thought it would be great to take a picture of the youngest cousins. Little did we know how challenging that could be. It seemed like one was moving each time we tried to snap the picture. We finally got one with a little help from Brad.
(Braden, Blake, and Gavin)


Success! :~)


We have the best kiddos!





This crab has been a visitor to our house everyday that we have been here. He seems to like to come out to the pool during the day which is unusual. During his first visit Scott B decided that I would like a closer look which of course my reaction will now be burned in the memory of those involved and I am sure the story will continue to be told many times. Ughh. Today this little fella was swimming in the pool with the kids. Looking forward to his visit tomorrow. We think he continues to return since he sees how much fun we are having. LOL....


Oh no, I am going to feel this one!

Rylee looks like she is doing a Kung Fu Panda impression.

What a good one Haley. Rylee thought about giving you a hand. The kids were doing a jumping contest and supposedly Chloe was to judge them. She keep looking at other things going on and missed some of the jumps. I don't think Rylee, Haley or Tyler really minded since they then had to keep the jumping going.


Great Grandma Brown has been able to do some reading while here. She thought she would take a break from her book and check out the little ones Blues Clues book!

It was Jenn, Scott, Kaela, Rylee, Sharon and Ron's night to make dinner for everyone. In the morning we received our handmade invitations from Rylee for the Luau themed dinner. We had an absolute ball. The food, atmosphere and even music was great!

What a crew......



Rylee made the special desserts.

Aunt Jenn was making the punch drinks.

Uncle Scott preparing the shrimp for the kabobs. He looks very comfortable in the kitchen, doesn't he??

After dinner, Tyler tried his hand at horseshoes with Grandma Shadle. Look at that form!

Chloe can't get enough of the pool and ocean.

Aunt Jenn is truly multi-talented. The girls loved to get the fancy designs painted on their toes. Even Great Grandma and Lynda have fancy toes! Rylee and Haley are the toe models today.
