Summah School!

When I decided to take a class this summer I thought to myself "Hey, it's summer, why not take it a little easy." So I signed up for American Lit II online. I could not have been more wrong about having it easy. This was my most difficult semester thus far, which is saying something since I had only one class this semester and two every other. It was a challenge but I also really enjoyed being able to read Kate Chopin, Ernest Hemingway, Mark Twain, Henry James, Edith Wharton and T.S. Eliot. Now that I passed in my final yesterday I am going to do some major blogging to catch up. Here is to more nights glued to the computer screen.

Cam caught his first fish!!!

On May 19th Cameron caught his very first fish ever. Despite being so proud to have caught a fish he refused to handle it. He kept swinging the fishing rod around to avoid it coming too close to him. While Cam was fishing Brooke was falling in love with the worms. She was holding them and wrapping them through her fingers and calling them "baby" and "hunny." It was hilarious.

Brooke: the mermaid

Here is a cute little video of Brooke at swim lessons. I just think she is so adorable, especially since she doesn't realize the camera is on her.





Isn't it funny watching her try to climb out of the pool

I'm sure we had better things to be doing.

Gettin jiggy with it

I recently realized that I have about 30 videos on my phone, mostly of the kids, and it's absolutely pointless to just keep them on my phone. So why not blog them. Here are the kids dancing to the music from "Space Chimp." I love Cam's version of "The Running Man" and the "Robot."

In the above video you can hear me telling Brooke to do her dance. Below is the dance that I'm referring to. She made it up at school. Melanie is helping her to focus. Aren't they darling.

Pure hysteria....

I don't know what set him off, but the other night Cam couldn't stop laughing. Juice ended up coming out of his nose. He had the rest of the family in tears we were laughing so hard.

Happy First Anniversay Natey-Nate and Bobbie!!!

Luisa and Nate celebrated their One Year Anniversary on Easter.

We love you guys, and miss you so much.

Instead of posting a sweet picture of a lovely couple I want to demonstrate just how well Nate fits into the family. Above is a picture of me at my desk at work (I was really on the phone, not posing), which I sent to Luisa to make her laugh.

She out did me, with a picture of her at her desk. She titled that picture

"Anything to get out of work." However, Nathan topped both of us.

Besides not knowing how he managed it, this proves that he did marry into the right family. Hugs and kisses from your loving family!!
