Mendell is 3!

We spent the day at the beach for Mendell's 3rd birthday. She had a great time!

She played and played.

Happy Birthday Mendell!

Count your blessing!

Count your blessings name them one by one!

Baptised!

What an memorable opportunity to be baptized together.

My Hero!

Tim pulled a young man out of the ocean. He was out in the waves and paniced. Instead of putting his feet down and gaining ground the pour guy just kept swallowing water. Tim heard him crying for help and reached him in time. The rescue came and pumped his lungs. Within the hour he was back playing volleyball with his friends. Praise the Lord for His protection!

This is the rescue crew who were quick on the scene!

Another Girls Lunch!

Karsten and Skylar were able to go have lunch with Natalie a couple weeks ago. I'm a little late getting pictures they took while having lunch. Sorry!

Thanks Natalie for taking the girls out!

The Famous Tote Pools!

You might be a redneck.....

Carlisle is 5!

This post is a little past due, but I had to post pictures of his little party at home.

The girls made him a chocolate cake and we actually wrapped his gifts! (I'm always forgetting to buy wrapping paper and end up using pillowcases) He was so excited.

He had been waiting for weeks to get a bed set. We had a hard time picking out his bedding. We were stuck between Cars and Handy Manny. You can see which won out. He absolutely loves his new bed set and is very excited to make his bed first thing in the morning.

Happy Birthday Carlisle!

Picture Time

Just a bunch of crazy people having a good time!

Girl's Lunch Out

We hit Sonny's for some great BBQ!

My mom (best friend in the entire world) and I!

Karsten was a little bumpy while taking this picture so it's a little fuzzy.

Karsten and Skyler were very impressed with their first visit to Sonny's.

Here's a shot with the best Auntie in the world ~ we love you Aunt Sandy! It was a lot of fun laughing and spending time together. Thanks mom for taking us all out for a girls lunch out.

New Bling!

The girls got their ears pierced while my mom and auntie were visiting!

Karsten with her beautiful diamond studs!
Skylar being oh so tough.
Skylar chose diamond florwers!

Bailey had a smile the entire time!Bailey chose pink/diamond flowers!

The girls love their new earrings!

Ear Surgery!

Coallette had ear surgery. She looked so pathetic with her ear bandaged to the top of her head. What a trooper!

More Birthday Fun!

Here are a few pictures from the boys birthday party that I am just now getting around to posting. There was a nice little creek at the park that was perfect for playing in.

Carlisle slipped while playing in the creek. What a priceless picture!

Mendell enjoyed splashing her feet in the water!

Look at that smile!
