Monday was a fun day!

On Monday August 17th 2009, Cindi took part of the day off to play with us one last time before Gracie starts 1st grade. So we started the day with a field trip to the Blue Bell Ice cream plant in Broken Arrow! It is a really neat tour. The kids good care less about what the lady were saying but wanted the free ice cream at the end. Here are a few pictures of all of us outside of the creamery!

After our tour we decided to go park hunting for a good park in Tulsa to have Paige's 4th Birthday party at. Well we ended up at Florence park. Tavia is the sweet girl in the white tank top that you see. She is Adam and Cindi's niece. Gracie has really enjoyed being able to hang out with Tavia this summer. She rarely gets to play with kids her own age. Here is a picture of all 5 of the kids playing in the sprinkler.


While everyone is running of course someone has to collide right? Today that was Lauren and Gavin. They collided right into each other and this is a picture of Lauen's boo boo!











I love this next couple of pictures because I feel like I really caught a good picture that tell you the personality of each child. First this is one of Lauren watching where she is going but running.

Then here you have Paige drinking the water and spitting it out.












Then there is Gracie and Tavia who won't stay off the water fountain itself.



Gracie's turn! To feel the pressure of the water.










And then there is the only boy of the bunch..... Gavin. Check this one out I guess when you have to go you just have to go!



After all the excitement of the water it was time to go home. Of course it was another great day with a lot of great entertainment. I am so thankful for all these kids and all they bring to me each day! Thank you Heavenly Father for them..... I can't thank you enough. What a great day!









The party of 5 all fit on the bench. Here is a picture of them all waiting to go inside at the Blue Bell Ice Cream Creamery. What you don't know is that Tavia and Gracie fall off backwards...... It was pretty funny!
