Time marches on.

Casey turned 7 on August 13th. As usual we had a pool party.









Casey, finds any excuse to have fun. We emptied a bunch of old water bottles in the front yard, and that became a huge water fight. Luckily he was the wettest guy there!









We got to go to Boon Docks, Tyler loved the bumper boats.









The biggest thing to happen was that Dalton fell from our blow up waterslide and broke his arm. Check out the s bend in his wrist. He sliped it right off the growth plate on the Radius and cracked the Ulna. Well, the patched him up good and now we have just 2 more weeks in a cast. Poor guy missed a lot of fun swimming, jumping on the tramp, soccer, and especially riding his bike. But we survived the pain and itching so far, just a few more days.






Aly and Casey are loving soccer. Aly is the fly away hair girl on the left in yellow.







Lyida is about 15 months now, and she has learned that crying is very effective in getting what you want. So this face, messy and frustrated, is a very common face around our house. We just think it is the cutest little pout.







Our dishwasher tried to burn our house down. Check out these burned wire caps. And no, it wasn't poor wiring on our part. We had a Bosch, it cleaned great, but the wires that came from the control pad grounded on the frame, and caused a power surge, and melted the power cord. Nice. So now we need a new dishwasher, and we are not getting a Bosch or a KitchenAid. Bad experiences with both. Anyone have wonderful machine you would recommend. So far we have gone thru 4 dishwashers in 9 years. Something Wrong Here!
