Jesus Visits the Gym

The kids and I were walking into the gym the other day, and Father Max, the priest here in Lena, was walking on the treadmill. He grinned at us and said "Hello."
As we were walking back to the playroom, Avery ran up behind her brother, and very excitedly whispered, "Bryton, Bryton....Jesus is here, Jesus is here!!!"

Monkey'n Around w/ Nana...

...before Dad built the "fort" in this tree...and it now has a beautiful view, a ladder, and a rope swing included in its accommodations :)

Art Time w/ Dad

First Day of First Grade for Bryton

Today was Bryton's first day...and he had a great day! Of course, it was early dismissal, which makes it all that much better :) He hopped on and off the bus with a smile...which made it easier on this Mom. (Avery starts school in a week, but she really wanted her picture taken this a.m., also :)

Recent Lake Pics...

Avery still not liking tubing, a picnic dinner, Bailey's first trip to the Lake this summer, and our friendly neighbors :)
