Lagoon

We almost didn't make it to lagoon this year. Quinton and I hung out for the first part of the day, while Paul took the older kids on the 'older' rides, then we switched. It felt like was the mother of one again - I loved being able to give Quinton all my attention. He only liked the rides where he felt totally in control. No crazy fast rides for him. My older three are exact opposite. Grant even spent his own money to go on catapult. He sat in a metal ball and was literally catapulted straight into the air - he loved every second of it. Today, we recovered from all the excitement by taking it easy and now the state of my house is looming over me - that's why I suddenly remembered that I really needed to blog.

Human Chain

First, I should tell you I found a new app for my iPhone - it's called blogger. I can even talk into a microphone and not have to type on that tiny keyboard (which actually drives me a little crazy). I must have fat fingers. It's a real possibility that I might even post more often.
This picture makes me smile. It's what childhood is all about. Playing together and making memories.

Before and after

Ella decided to get bangs because all the girls in the pictures she drew had bangs, so she wanted to see what it would be like, of course.
