Faith is 6!!!!!

June 4th was Faith's 6th Birthday!! I can't believe that my baby is 6!! She wanted to go to Worlds of Fun (an amusement park here) for her birthday. Jason took the day off work so we could go. It turned out to be a perfect day. Faith was sooo happy because she was tall enough to ride a couple of the rides that she's been wanting to ride for a couple of years now! The weather was HOT but there were very few lines to wait in. Faith's favorite part of the day was when she rode the "wacky worm" ( a kiddie coaster) and she told the operator that it was her birthday and he and everyone on the ride sang Happy Birthday to her! Here are some pictures of her day!!





Softball Season is in Full Swing!!

Paige is playing softball again this year. She is now in the 7/8 coach pitch league. We moved her back to the league she played in when we first moved to Kansas. She was fortunate enough to be put on the team she had played with that year too!! Their team name is the Twisters! They have played 3 games so far. Unfortunately they have not won a game yet but they are improving every game. Paige got her first hit in a game last saturday and hit two runs in. Paige was called out when running from second to third base because a girl on the opposing team threw the ball and hit her. They called it "runners interference." I thought it was a bad call!!! Here are some pictures of her and Faith, her little cheerleader. (Faith didn't want to play this year but changed her mind when it was too late to register her :( )

They matched from head to toe.We even painted all their nails the same.Here are some pictures of the girls from today!!

End of the School Year Celebrations..

On Friday May 21, the girls' teachers held end of the year celebrations to hand out certificates for completing the school year. Paige's teacher had a class picnic that parent's were welcome to attend. She then showed a slideshow of photos from the school year and handed out their certificates. We also celebrated with cake.
Faith's teacher showed a slideshow of photos from the school year and handed out certificates as well. Below are some pictures from that day!

Here are Paige and Faith with their certificates:

Summer is coming...

Summer is quickly approaching. The girls will be out of school on May 26. I can't believe that Paige is almost done with first grade and Faith with kindergarten. They are growing sooo quickly. We have a lot of fun things planned for the summer. Paige has begun softball practice. This will be her first year in coach pitch. We are excited that she was able to get back on the team she was with our first year in Kansas. It's definitely more competitive and she is learning a lot. The team is called the "Twisters" and their colors with be lime green/black. Faith had no interest in playing ball this year until is was too late for me to sign her up. She will be doing swim lessons instead. Hopefully it will help her be more comfortable in the water.
Haylee will be coming to visit us in June. We'll drive her home in July and we plan to stay a week in Texas to visit family. It's been over a year since we've been there so we're really looking forward to it!
Anyways, here are the girls' Spring school pictures. They turned out very well!!




Spring Break-March 2010

Although Spring Break is long over with I wanted to post some pictures. Jason's mom and Aunt Carolyn came to visit us. They brought Haylee with them so we could see her too. We had a great week filled with lots of fun times! We went to power play, the movies, Science City, and Grandma and Aunt Carolyn took the girls to see Disney on Ice. They had soo much fun! The week went by quickly and no one was ready for them to leave. Here are a few pictures from their visit.

Paige, Haylee and Faith:

They love their sister, Haylee...
