fairy houses

after visiting a fairy house display at the library the girls worked for a solid week creating their own fairy houses!  they did a great job! mck and ken did most of the work themselves . . . and kam desinged her's, but needed help gluing!  they are now proudly displayed in the yard for all of the fairies to visit!  (from top to bottom . . . kam's, mck's, ken's)

my sweet, tired girls at the end of the last day of camp crestview.  they were so worn out, but had so much fun . . . learning about god!  the day are long - 8:30 until 5!!!!  all week long!  but there are so many crafts, stories, and activites . . . plus a day long trip to reunion ranch . . . that the girls wouldn't miss it for anything!  the end of camp performance had lots of fun songs - even b and kam were dancing along!  after such a crazy long week, we opted for ice cream for dinner!

grammy camp re-play

the girls did their grammy camp performance for us when they got home.  it included an introduction from ken (asking us to silence our cell phones!), 5 cute songs with motions, and lots of posing at the end!  too cute.  love these girls . . . and my mom for taking them for four days! 

grammy camp 2012 (a new tradition!)

the girls spent four days with grammy and cousin s at grammy camp!  they had so much fun!  a bluebell factory tour, complete with ice cream, a visit to the butterfly center at the museum of science, lots of pool time, cookie and cupcake making, lots of songs and stories, tutu making, journaling, and bug catching!  they had so much fun!  they came home with lots of goodies and lots of smiles!  i sure missed them . . . but it was cool to have b all to myself for a little while . . . he got spoiled while they were being spoiled!  what a fun tradition!  thanks grammy!  the girls even came home and did a performance of the songs they learned . . . super cute!
fyi . . . the "camp" is for four and up . . . count b in for next year, grammy!
kam's fav part, " aking the tutus and the journals!"
mck's fav part, "going to the bluebell factory place!"
ken's fav part, "seeing the longwings lay eggs!"

cheer girls!

the girls had a blast at the high school cheerleaded camp!  they learned SOOOOO much and had so much fun getting lots of attention from the older girls . . . kam was quite a hit - the youngest girls there!  their cheers at the end were awesome!  can't believe how much they learned in four days!  they all posed for some pics with "georgie" . . . b's favorite part!

2012 scavenger hunt

we started off summer with a sacavenger hunt.  with 10 clues . . . the kids ran to every room of the house and outside too!  the "booty" was a collection of summer fun - floaties, a giant sprinkler, goggles, diving stuff, a trike for b, and new swimsuits!  let the summer fun begin!

kam's birthday celebration

kam was set on celebrating with her two besties at build-a-bear.  the girls had lots of fun picking out their animals and dressing them up!  rainbow bears for m and k, a pony for e!  they ate lunch at chick-fil-a and splurged with pink lemonade cupcakes (YUM!!!!)  kam had an awesome morning . . . even grammy and big sisters got to come along! 

our ghetto pool!

our ghetto pool has been quite a hit this year.  the kids love it and have so much fun playing around in it.  only problem is it makes me realize how much we NEED a "real" pool!  maybe next year.  for now all six of us are piling into our 4 foot deep pool!
