Some highlights from the weekend...

Last Friday Jaime, Jason, Cole and Miles came over to watch the opening ceremony. Cole is one of Kirsten's bff's. Don't you love his awesome hair.
Speaking of the Olympics, I am just loving them this year! This has been the conversation in our house since Friday night...
Kirsten: "Where are they?" (pointing to the t.v.)

Me: "They're in China"

Kirsten: "Can we go there"

Me: It's all the way on the other side of the world we'll have to save lots and lots of money to buy tickets to go there.

Kirsten: Let's go buy tickets and go right now and I can swim in that pool.


A more realistic "vacation spot"...

We went to the shore for the first time this summer. We went to a Delaware beach for the first time ever.




We had a humungous storm on Sunday during church with huge hail. Most people had never seen storms like this before so everyone was out of their classes looking out the window. It was very exciting until we realized that our cars were going to be destroyed. Sure enough after church we go outside and everyone's cars had dents ALL over them. As a reward for our car enduring hundreds of dollars worth of damage, Kirsten got to see her first full rainbow. She wanted to go and touch it.

In other news, Colton is now 4 months old! So crazy! Here's his latest picture.
He is now rolling all over the place, losing his hair, laughing hysterically especially when I click my tongue at him (easily amused), and loving his rice cereal.

Colton is 4 months! Goodness! :) That flew by! I love all the pics of the kids! So cute!
Looks like you guys are taking advantage of all the fun stuff out there! We definitely miss the east coast and all the sites!
We have loved watching the Olympics too! Jocelyn was a little nervous watching the divers! haha. She said, "Only grown ups can do that, Mommy. Not little kids!" :) She does like to watch the swimming and wishes she could go that fast...don't we all!?!? I love that Kirsten is ready to travel to China!! So cute. Is she saving her pennies yet for tickets? LOL. Jocelyn would probably just ask my mom for money. She's been doing that lately! :) Doesn't really understand why that is rude!

your kids are cute and Kirsten looks so much like Emily! I am sure you have already heard that a couple of times. Hope everyone is doing well!

Kirsten looks so grown up in that little swim suit, too cute. So did your car get ruined?
