Memorial Day Weekend

We had a busy weekend celebrating Memorial Day and getting our summer started.

Our neighborhood had its first Memorial Day bike parade. Both Aidan & Kiersten participated. Aidan won first place for his age group. He even got a smoothie gift card as a prize.
We went to the local pool. Kiersten loves the water and is fascinated by the fountains.

She is also fascinated by her brother's goggles. Aidan made pink lemonade rocket pops.

A few other random photos:

Kiersten is the 'fish whisperer'. Every time she is near the tank they swim to her and suck the side of the tank. I think they think her chubby little fingers are food but she loves it. And here, Aidan learned is why it is not a good idea to throw your clothes down from the balcony...

Pool Time

Its that time of year again. Splashing fun in the backyard.

Sudan Styles

These are the outfits that Darren brought back from his mission trip Sudan for the kids. They were made specially for them by students at a vocational school there.

Last Day of School

Today was our last day of school. Look how much they have both grown up...

Rangers Game & More Family Fun

First of all, I have to show off the cutest pigtails around. Kiersten has been rocking them a lot lately because her is getting long and kind of wild.Good example of her crazy hair. Plus this picture makes me laugh because she backed herself up under the coffee table and got stuck but was still smiling about it.
We went to a Rangers game Thursday night. We had great seats plus Aidan got a balloon shaped like a dog and a t-shirt. His favorite part? The dot race.

We also ate at Texas de Brazil this weekend. Aidan loved flipping over the disk when he wanted more food. Especially when he saw the waiter with the sausage.

Even Kiersten got in on the action. She loved the fried bananas. Here is some adorable sibling love. Aidan says "Kiersten thinks God gave her my hair to eat".

Aidan's AWANA Awards

We celebrated the end of Aidan's first year of Cubbies. We are so proud of him & all the bible verses he learned.

The Rest of April

Here are a few pictures from the end of the month...

Sleeping Beauty, she will snuggle up with whatever lovie she is given

Aidan had Donuts with Dad at school. Looks like he enjoyed the donut part very much.

Kiersten just being cute. I can't resist those big blue eyes.

At the Roughriders game

Kiersten loves to be pushed around on the trike. She can barely sit up but somehow can hold herself up on the seat. She looks so funny and cracks up the whole time. Celebrating my birthday
