Hair bows

Here are a couple of the lastest hair bows.

Tinlie has lots of pink bows so we are in the process of makeing different color bows. We have to make two of each bow because we put in a lot of two piggy tails.

new hair do!

Tried a new hair do on Tinlie, got the idea from Kara. Thanks for the great ideas. Need lots of hair do ideas that can be done the night before, so that grandma doesn't have to mess with the do in the morning. If you got ideas, let me know!

Independence

Tinlie has decided that she is big and can ride a big bike just like everybody else.

She cant start with out using the curb, and turning around doesn't happen with out getting of her bike, but I think she is doing very well. Tinlie also started preschool today.

She was so excited to get to wear her new clothes and tennis shoes that she was up at 4 a.m. so that she could make sure that i got her the right clothes.

Back to School

School started last Thursday, I'm a little late in putting in the pictures. Peyton has decided to ride his bike to school, so far so good. Peyton is in third grade and his teacher is Mrs. Rowley. He has lots of buddy's in his class. In third grade they divide the kids by the railroad tracks so half go to Sunrise and the other go to Stuart.

Cousin Reunion

My Aunt and her siblings had a great idea to get the cousins together, because not all of us see each other very much. We went camping in grandpa Farrells back yard (KOJ) for the weekend. On Saturday the big boys went fishing, leaving us girls to attend to the children and their entertainment.

We went hiking to some place I had never been before, but all of the cousins said they had been and camped there( I cant remember its name, but grandma use to like to go there and build a fire and roast marshmallows). It had rained the night before and I didn't know that was what we were going to do, so most of us hiked in flip flops. After we got to the spot we found out that we could have walked on the road to get there so we walked on the road to get back to chads house. Aunt lu had a wise idea and brought pixie sticks for all the kids (have a little sugar).

(Megan, Brooke and Sadie Campbell, Don't they look just like there mom!)

My mom decided that we should see who could win in leg wrestling.

After all this fun we decided to go feed them lunch and then we would come back for water fun.

Owen Jenkins slip-n-slide

Tanner wasn't to sure, and I can say he didn't go again.

I had a smart idea that i would buy water balloons and fill them up and they could have a water balloon fight. Don't buy balloons that say water balloons and come with a nozzle, the nozzle doesn't fit on the hose and the balloons were week. I lost this battle because as fast as i could fill them up the would throw them at me.

After all this fun, we went to the KOJ and Chad cook dinner.

Owen is only 8, and he ate the whole thing.

After dinner Grandma Dawn gave the kids marshmallow guns and boy were they fun.

Tinlie, Tanner, and Hunter (I think they ate as many as they shot).

This is Farrell Jenkins,

and this is half of his family. We had a good time and maybe next year the whole family can come camping to the KOJ.

Vacation!

We have been on vacation for the last 13 days! Why does time fly when your on vacation. Anyways our vacation started out with a baseball tourney in Burly. The boys played very well, and had a great time.

After the baseball tourney, we headed home, unpacked all the dirty clothes and packed clean clothes and headed for Greys River, Wy all in the same day. We had a great time in Greys River. The kids out fished the grow ups, we saw lots of animals and road the 4 wheelers.

As you can see we had a great time. Its hard to imagine that the summer is almost over and that the kids start school in less than one month. We have one baseball tourney left and one small vacation left to Tony's family reunion.

Better late than never!

Wow, it has been along time since I posted. We have a little busy with soccer, end of the school, baseball, camping and just every other thing that life has for us. Here are some pictures of what we've been up to.

This was Tinlie's first soccer game and she was in heaven because her uniforms were purple.

This was Peyton playing soccer. The girl in the picture is Megan, she is Peytons biggest rival and one of his best friends. They are very tough on each other.

Tinlie was more worried about how she looked than playing T-Ball. We always had to have sun glasses on and a bow in our hair.

Unlike Tinlie, Peyton is Mr. Baseball. This season his team went undefeated. He plays first base, pitches. Peyton made the Shelley all-star team and we have went to one tourny, and have two more to go to.

Last but not least, this was Tinlie and Dad catching her first fish at birch creek. We have done a lot of camping and plan to do a lot more. So for now you are up to date on our lives.
