Pool Party

We had Uncle Randy, Aunt Norma, and their kids and grandkids over for a party this Memorial Day weekend. The kids had a blast playing and swimming!

Dakota jumping in to Daddy's arms in the deep end!

RyAnne jumping off the diving board for the first time! Bro bet her $2.00 to do it!

The girls all enjoyed going down the slide!

Bailey is a little fish! She loves to swim around with her little arm floaties on.

Self-Control

RyAnne received a self-control award at the Red Carpet Award Assembly at Horizon Elementary. This award was given to about two children in each classroom that have control over their feelings, actions, and words. Her teacher said at the ceremony - "RyAnne is always using self control. She sets a good example everyday in the classroom keeping her body and voice under control. She waits patiently whether it is in line, on the playground, or to talk to me in the classroom. She is a great listener and a thoughtful speaker- always thinking before she speaks and using kind words. Nice job RyAnne!"

Great job, Bug!

RyAnne's Wedding Dress

When RyAnne was a baby dad once joked to Grandma Carter, "When are you going to buy her a prom dress?" because she bought her SO many clothes. Well, she bypassed the prom dress and went right to the wedding gown!

Don't panic, Dad, it's just a MINATURE bride gown. You won't be walking your first baby girl down the aisle just yet :-)

Spring Concert

RyAnne and her kindergarten friends performed "Barnyard Sing-A-Long" for their spring concert!

Tapping her sticks to the beat of the pig dance..

RyAnne and her classmates were cows. Here she is with a couple of her friends performing the cow dance.

Quacking like a chicken to the chicken song and dance.

Once again, RyAnne was right in the front and is quite the little performer! The concert was very cute and we were SO proud of her!

Tire Swing

The twins LOVE their new tire swing Great Uncle Terry and Aunt Carol gave them for their birthday!

They had fun opening their presents!

Happy 3rd Birthday Dakota and Bailey!

We celebrated Dakota and Bailey's birthday by going to Red Robin - they LOVED getting sung to!

And they were SO excited to get balloons and a stuffed animal from Uncle Randy and Aunt Norma!

They got one present - an extreme coaster from Dad and Mom on their birthday. The rest they had to wait for their birthday party!!

They laughed and giggled and screamed and were exhausted at day's end!

Little Brew Crew Fans!

Our little Brew Crew fans cheered on the Brewers at Grandpa and Grandma Carter's house while Dad and Mom went to opening day!

Egg Hunt at Grandpa & Grandma Franklin's

Luckily Dakota and Bailey had helpers (Zachary and cousin Hailey) because if the eggs were not right in front of them - they didn't see them!

RyAnne took off so fast looking for eggs the only picture we have is of the back of her head :-)!
