It was Madeline's turn to take the picture. Nice work girls!

The girls love to take pictures with our camera! After church Noella took this picture of us.
Family fun!
We all felt so special with our large, bright green VIP badges at the Sara Evans concert!
Summer Reading Prizes! Way to go Girls!!
Madeline and Noella have listened to over 2,000 pages each of books/bible stories from the Family Christian Library. They read some of the books too. I am not sure how many pages they read this year with Ada county, but we all had a great time listening to stories. We love reading the Little House books together and have finished the first 4. Madeline won a bubblegum machine and Noella a book and kit of musical intruments:)

Splashin' Around
The girls had so much fun playing in the water this past weekend! We drove up to the Cascade area for the afternoon and went fishing.
I Lost My 3rd Tooth!
Madeline lost her 3rd tooth 8/08. She was a brave girl and let mommy pull it out. By the time it came out, it was hanging by a thread! Madeline decided to save it in her special tooth box. More on this in 8/24 post! She has such a cute smile!
Veggie Time
We spent the day with our friends the Wheelers and saw the new Veggie Tale Movie...Well, I stayed out in the hall with NG for most of it!

Poor Hubby
Also taken on Mother's day, Josh was thrown off his parents ' horse Storm Cloud the night before when the saddle broke. Josh had a long recovery as he fractured his rt. radial head, another bone in his left wrist and had an infection in his left foot . We are so happy to report he is healing well and almost has his normal range of motion back.
Happy Mother's Day
I am soooo blessed that the Lord has given me such loving, giving, joyful, amazing girls! Lord you are so incredible! Thank you.
Noella's First Dance Recital
Isn't she lovely?!! Noella just LOVES to dance. She had so much fun in herfirst dance class this year. She loved being on the stage and could not wait to perform. She has been demonstrating her arabesque since she could walk!
Planting Herbs
The girls planted Basil which is still alive and kickin! My Cilantro didn't fare as well....
A Visit With Dad
Can you believe he is 89 years old?!! Dad loves to tell stories about the people he knew, the times he lived through and the golf he played. It was so sweet to see him laughing and joking with the girls.
Resurrection Celebration
Our family began a few new Easter traditions this year. The girls painted a ressurection poster after listening to Matthew 28 and then made reserrection cookies. They really enjoyed hearing the scriptures and experienceing Jesus's death and resurection through the making of the cookies.
The Fourth of July Parade
Can we pass out the candy too?
Our First Lemonade Stand
I have the best idea! We can charge 50 cents a cup but then I'll make coupons for 25 cents off and hand them out to everybody and everybody will think they got a deal!! (Madeline)
Sleeping on the Stage
