Way Behind

Hey guys!  Happy Early Summer!  My mom is way behind in updating the blog... so I gave her a time-out.  :)  (and made her update it!)

Since our last blog I went to a Daddy Daughter Dance as well in March!  As always I danced the night away with the man in my life - my daddy!




Grandma and Granddaddy came to visit and we went to St. Louis to see the arch!
Amazing!!  :)









Mommy and Daddy ran a race called The Warrior Dash!  Talk about getting muddy...I'm sure mommy would have been very mad if I ever got THAT muddy playing outside!

 



I ran a race too!  It was called Sophie's Run in honor of the life of Sophie Edwards, a citizen of Lake Waukomis and student of the Park Hill School District, who passed away April 29, 2010.  The fundraising from the race benefits children in surrounding communities to assist them in obtaining technology that will help them in school and in life.   Pretty neat huh?  Here are I am running with Daddy!  He was a great running buddy!  My sister and brother were really good at cheering me on!





Since the race I've done so much like...going to a day long girl scout camp with Mommy, planting a garden for Mommy for Mother's Day (Grandma Pond's idea and gift for Mommy!-so wonderful!), attending my first Royals game at Kauffman Stadium, having my first field day at school and having spa time with Kiley!  (cucumbers are gross!)















Oh!  I also participated in a "Wax Museum" at school as Amelia Earhart!  I learned a speech and wore a costume!  My parents said I did an AWESOME job!



Kiley turned 6!!  She had her party at Mercury Gymnastics!  What a blast!  





Other than that we've just been enjoying the warmer weather and all the visitors we've had lately!  :)  Happy Summer you guys! 







 











 Love to all who loves us! :)

Spring has sprung?  





"Yes!" Ben says.


But not until we had at least ONE more snowstorm!
 It was too cold to play outside during this one so we stayed indoors all nice
and warm by our fireplace!







Ben tried his very first fire toasted marshmallow and LOVED it!  



He also likes power tools!


Moving on......


We've been meeting new friends and with that comes LOTS of playdates!
Kiley had a tea party playdate!  All the girls put on fancy dresses and drank real tea!  


Slurp!


Here I am with my friend Autumn!


OH!  We found a Chuck E. Cheeses right near our house!  So cool!

Ben learning how to drive!

Kiley flying


I've also joined a Girl Scout troop!  My friend Autumn is in the troop too!

One of my first Girl Scout events was called All Around The World.
Tables were set up with crafts, food and music from all different countries.
My personal favorite was Mexico!  Hmmm....maybe because of the Churro?






Kiley and Daddy went to a Daddy Daughter Dance!  Don't they look smashing?
I'm going to one with Daddy on March 28th!



The belle of the ball

Love you ALL!
