First Tooth!




Mitchell woke up this morning to his surprise his first tooth came out! He was so excited that it finally came out, he had been waiting patiently for it to come out. He can hardly wait till the tooth fairy comes tonight! His tooth came out just in time, we have family pictures this afternoon that he can show his new toothless smile! It's been a hard week on mommy, first kindergarten and now his first tooth !)

1st Day of Kindergarten
















Mitchell was so excited to go to Kindergarten he could hardly wait! Last night we went to his school to put all our supplies away in his desk and meet his teacher. He was up this morning at 6 a.m. ready for school. He wanted to get up early so he wouldn't be late. He was alittle nervous about going to school but he had a great time. His favorite part was getting to have a "Job". He got to pass out papers to the rest of the kids. There are 13 kids in his class, so we are excited about the amount of children in his class. Since Elden graduated with a class of 3, we were just hoping that wouldn't be the case for Mitchell. Mitchell is anxious to learn new things and play with his new friends. Although I was sad to see him go to kindergarten, I know he'll love school and am anxious to hear about what he learned in school every day.

Park Fun


















Connor and I had a special day together on Mitchell's 1st day of school. We went on a bike ride and then went to the park for a while. Connor already knows how to pump his legs when he swings, which is impressive since he's not even four yet. Here are a few pics of Connor having fun at the park.











Asher















I have started watching my cousin Dawn's little boy two day a week. We have enjoyed having a baby in the house again and playing with him. Although he still sleeps alot, the kids love him dearly, especially when he's awake. Here are a few pics of the boys loving Mr. Asher.





Boating




Last weekend we got to take the boat one last time! It was a beautiful evening and we invited our friends Ryan and Leisa and their two kids to come along. We had a great time besides a little boat trouble at first. The kids jumped right in and the water was refreshing. Mitchell got some used ski's at a garage sale so he was anxious to try them out for the first time. He did a great job trying, but just drug and swallowed a bunch of water. When he got done skiing he said, "How about I try again when I am 7." After boating we went to Jersey Freeze and got some yummy ice cream! We had a fun evening!

Train Tracks!




Mitchell and his trains!


Mitchell and Connor being silly :)

Mitchell spent most of this rainy morning working hard on his train. He used both the wooden train and his new CAT train that he got for his birthday. He was pretty proud of his new creation! Here's a few pics of his train tracks!

Last night we had Mitchell's 6th Birthday party! Mitchell was SOOO excited for his party to start, he could hardly wait! Aunt Shari made an awesome airplane cake for him that was yummy! He loved all his gifts that he got and is busy playing with them! Thanks for all of those who came and made his day special! Happy 6th Birthday Mitchell! Mommy and daddy love you very much!

Swimming with our cousins!






















Sunday was such a hot day, we decided to go to our mom and dad's for the afternoon to swim. The kids had an awesome time swimming for like 6 hours straight. They slept great that night! Our cousin Nathan was there as well and played so great with the kids! Thanks to mom and dad for keeping up the pool and making it look so nice!

Zoo




























Yesterday we got to go to the zoo with our friends Jody and Tyler and Mason. We had a great time together like usual and the kids loved playing together.They got to see all kinds of fun animals but their favorite part was riding the train! After we went to the zoo we went to Carlos O'Kelleys for dinner. Mitchell was so excited b/c they came and sang "happy birthday" at the restaurant and he got a ice cream sundae. Lunch was a little crazy so I am sure they were glad when we left. We managed to get a little shopping done and Mitchell got to get all his school supplies! He was so excited to get all his new things! We definitely had a great together with lots of memories! Thanks for going with us Jody and boys! Looking forward to next year!
