First Dance

Sophia decided yesterday that she wants to try on these princess outfits she's had for a long while...she told Ben "dance" and he obliged, dear boy.

Red Barn Farm

Despite the hot weather, we decided to return to this farm in nearby Weston, Missouri today to visit a farm we used to take Ben. They were setting up for a wedding, but we were able to see goats, horses, chickens and an ornery looking turkey:) The kids loved it!

Finally a post!

It has been a long while since my last post- but, then again, we have been on a long journey in the meantime. A trip down to Georgia to visit my family & then traveling back west to Kansas- to our new/old home. We are happy to be settling in and wanted to share some pics...a few of the kids on this epic road trips (real smiles!) and then playing in the sandbox (Ben's hand-painted bird houses in the background-thanks Mom for passing on the tradition:)

Happy April

Thought I'd start the month off with some new pictures!I caught Ben & Sophia doing art this week,something they both love to do. Ben wrote and illustrated his first book, too. It's called "Sophia Goldilocks, Grandma and the Monster Robot." :)

Soccer Starts!

Two words. Shin. Guards. Priceless.:)

The Zone

Sophia gets into "the zone" when she is watching her favorite show Max & Ruby. She has this internal alarm that seems to know exactly when it should be coming on...oh no!

Sammi

Ben got ahold of the camera today and took his first real pictures of his beloved cat. He also posed his storm trooper and a Cabbage Patch doll but those shots, unfortunately, didn't come out.This boy has a future.;)
