Kagers 1st day of 3rd grade!!!!

Seriously where does the time go. I cant believe my little boy (not little any more) is starting 3rd grade. It make me so sad how fast he is growing up. He was so excited to go on the 1st day. His teacher is Mr. Goodman and that was exactly the teacher he wanted. I am going to be the room mom for his class this year and he thought that was great. I have never been a room mom so wish me luck!!!

Getting ready to go with his new clothes, shoes and Jazz back pack.



Saying good-bye to his sisters. Kenlee thought she was going with him. She packed her back pack and was ready to start 3rd grade also!!

Walking to the bus!!

He could not wait to get to the bus stop so he was running in head of us.

There he is just stepping on the bus. Have a fun year in 3rd grade buddy, we love you!!!

Last Chance Lakes moms only!!!

By in July the girls went out to last chance for a sleep over then lots of skiing. I was in California so I did not get to go. But since school was starting soon we know we need to go one last time so we could get a break aways from our darling children and great husband!!! It was the funnest time ever. We laughed so hard and scared ourselves so bad we thought someone was there to kill us with chimes!!! Liz made the best spinach dip ever and we sat around eating, talking and laughing all night long. Margo reminded us that we need to get to bed so we can hit the lake at the crack of dawn. We begged her to not wake us up until at least 9:00 AM. So about 2:00 AM we were in bed but that did not stop us from talking and laughing we still talked for probably another hour. The next morning we got up ate breakfast then we hit the lake. It was so nice to get up to such pretty lake that was like glass!!! Everyone was so nice and patient to let me try over and over and over again. By the time we left my arms and wrist hurt so bad I could not believe it. I knew if they hurt this bad and we have not even started the drive home then there was no way I was going to even be able to get out of bed tomorrow. But it was worth the pain for the fun I had!!! Thanks girls for the great time can't wait to do it again!!!

Sitting around eat, talking , laughing cant get better than this!!!! Liz, Lisa, Me and Margo.
Susan and Tara.

Getting the boat ready to hit the lake!!

Tara, Me, Margo and Susan.

Seriously Margo is amazing. I could watch her all day long. She makes it look so easy.

Tara is great. She popped right up.

The best boat driver ever!!

OK here I am trying to take myself into getting into that cold water and making a fool out of myself.

Lisa and Tara giving me a lesson before I dive in!!

Here I am , HIT IT!!!!!
I am so scared. I tried Margo's new ski forever and could not get up. Then Susan had her ski so I tried it and I was so close to getting up. I wanted to keep going ti was so much fun but my arms felt like they were going to fall off. I did not thick I was even going to be able to pull my self into the boat. Thanks to everyone for the advice and letting spend most of the time trying. I tried to waked also . I got up once but was really wobbly. I guess we have another excuse to do another girls night out there so I can try again.

Just got done skiing so relaxing with Liz. Liz just had surgery on her hand so she just got to sit on the boat relax and get some sun lucky girl!! Next time she is getting in I can't wait to see her ski!!


SUPER LISA!! She put on her whole body wet suit to get in. It was cold I should have borrowed it but my body would have never fit into that suit! Look at that great body!!

Margo is amazing at anything she does.

First stitches!

July 29th, 2 days shy of being 9 months old Kam fell and split her eye open and had to get stitches. It was 9 o'clock at night and Kage and Ken just got out of the shower and was hungry. I was just walking back int the bathroom to get Kam so I could go get their pajamas on and feed them. Kam was standing up to the shower watching Troy. I was about 10 steps from her and she fell and hit her eye on a little marble edge. Of course once I seen the blood I started to freak out. Troy jumped out the shower with shampoo in his hair and soap all over him and he was trying to help but could not do much with the soap all over him. I tried to put a wash cloth on it to stop the bleeding but she did not want us to get near it. Kager was all upset and crying and so that made Ken upset so all 3 kids were crying it was one of those times you think is this really happening. Anyways we decide to take her to the hospital my sister meet us at the hospital to pick up Kage and Ken and bring them back home. When we got back to see the doctor he said we should put her out while he is stitching her up it cause it is right by her eye and he wants her to be very still. Since they were putting her out we had to wait for a respiratory therapist to get there and they had to hook her up to some monitors on her and so that took about an hour. Then they came in gave her the shot with the medicine to put her out they said it would only take about 60 second she would be gone. Well 5 minutes later she is still crying like crazy. So they wait for about 15 minutes and decide to give her another dose of it. After about 5 minutes after the 2nd dose she started to settle down a little bit but the doctor said he thinks that is as settled as she is going to get. She was in an other work but it still took a nurse Troy to hold her still. She had to have 6 stitches. It was so hard to watch her. After she was done they said the medicine would take about 2 to 3 hours to wear off. Well with her she was so restless and crying and her heart rate was high so they had to keep her until her heart rate came down. After about an hour after they did the stitches her heart rate was down but she was not her self they let us go home cause maybe her own bed would help her out. She fell asleep as soon as we started to drive home by this time it was 2:00 AM. The next morning when she got up she was so drugged up she could not even sit up . She was so funny you could tell she was in another world. She took a 5 hours nap that day to helped get all the drugs out of her system. Then we had to get them out 6 days later. She happened to go to her doctor for her 9 months check up so they took them out there. It was so sad. The stitches were so small it was hard for her to get them out. It was just as bad as putting them in but this time she did not have any drugs in her. Then after that she had to have her 9 month old shots. Poor little thing she has had a rough week. Now I never want to put her down I am afraid she is going to fall. I guess that is life but it is so hard to see your kids hurt.


This is the day after she did it.


She still has a smile or is that the drugs smiling?
The day we got the stitches out. I am sure she will have a little scare but not bad and could be in a worse place.

Disneyland

In July me, Kage, Kenlee and my mom went to California for 10 days. My great husband stayed home and kept Kambree. It was such a fun trip. I love Kam to dead but it was so much easier not taking her. The kids had a ball. Kenlee was tall enough to go on about all the rides so it was nice no one had to sit and wait with her. She was not to sure about the rides. Some she would cry little but was a good sport and go back on them. She loved Big Thunder Railroad. Of course her favorite part was all the characters especially the princesses. Kage loves it all the rides, characters and just being at the happiest place on earth makes him happy. We also went to Legoland one day and Universal Studios one day. We had a great time.

This was our first ride, the Matterhorn. Kenlee was not to sure about it.
Got to love the tea cups.
Kager has been to Disneyland 15 times and this was the first time he got his picture with Donald Duck



Our first day we went to Ariel's Grotto for dinner. We went so we could see all the princesses for Kenlee and we would not have to stand in line. It was so worth it. Kage was a good sport and went with no complaining. We took him to Goofy Kitchen later in the week to make up for it.


Kage was a good sport and had his picture with every princess.

Kenlee was being shy at first and I had to be in the picture with her.















Having fun getting ready to watch the fireworks.




Kenlee loved to scream on the rides!!!









Jack and Jack!!!!!











Kenlee wanted this hat so bad. She looked so cute in it and she wore it all day.


More tea cups!!!!


On Friday July 17th we went to Goofys Kitchen.









Kenlee loved Minnie. When we got there Minnie was dancing and Ken ran over and started to Dance with her then she wanted to kiss and hug her no stop. Then Minnie came over to our table to sign their autograph books and Ken did not want her to leave. Minnie was cute with her and hung out with her for a while.

Kage was luck he got a picture with her Ken did not want anyone else to even look at her.

One last hug before we left.


Me and Ken found Cinderella out side one day and she was not shy with her!! Cinderella is Kens favorite.





Watch out Kens driving!!



grandma and Kager



They love Rodger Rabbit ride!!
