Waiting for the bus

Keagan may be hard to get out of bed in the morning for school but he is usually out waiting for the bus for 20 minutes. He loves to ride his bike up and down the driveway until the bus comes. Jayda has to make sure that she says hi to Bill the bus driver and then we walk back to the house. Keagan doesn't have much to say about school but I know that he likes it! He has been learning so much. The first week he said that it wasn't as much fun as kindergarten and he liked recess! I sure hope it will never be a fight to get him there.

Lets try again!

Keagan wouldn't let me get a good picture of him on his first day of school....he just doesn't cooperate!! It drives me crazy, doesn't he know that I am a scrapbooker???? One day he will wonder why there isn't many pictures of him!! So these were the second or third day of school!

So I was fairly proud of my pretty pupcakes that I made for the party!! All the kids enjoyed them (they mostly just licked the icing off and left the cake!!) I got the cute stand from Tanya's garage sale (she always has the best stuff!!) and it worked perfect!

How many parties can a four year old have?!? Today Jayda had Madi, Kenna, Bilan, Selma, Ricky, Rayden and Easton over to help her celebrate. They had so much fun!! Jayda had such a hard time waiting for the presents!! They made their own pizza's and some of them had a few bites out of them before they even got to the oven! We all enjoyed pizza and then "Pupcakes" as Jayda calls them. Then she opened the presents!!! What a lucky girl. Once that was done there was a pinata downstairs. They all enjoyed hitting that and I am pretty sure that Keagan got most of the candy-even with Ben holding him back!! That sure made him mad!! Jayda got LOTS of Polly Pockets (lots of pieces to lose!!) so the girls had a great time playing with them. Kenna & Selma got to stay for a sleepover with Jayda and they are all asleep!! AH peace and quiet!! This party planning is tiring!!

Happy Birthday!!

I can't believe that Jayda is four!!! Where has the time gone?? She has been planning her party for months and now it is finally here!!! We had six girls over for a princess party. They had lots of fun and loved getting their toes airbrushed!! It was just so hard to wait until they were dry. They enjoyed pupcakes and waiting to open presents was so hard for her. She got lots of nice new toys and she stayed up past 9 playing with them!!

New Kitchen Stools

We FINALLY got our stools!!! We've talked about it for years.....They are quite comforable and the kids love sitting there to eat!! They were a tenth anniversary present from Mom, Dad, the Nielsens and Tera. Thank you so much we love them!!!

Rolling Hills Campground

We went to the Rolling Hills Resevoir with Grandma Patterson, Nasra, Bilan, Selma & Mohammed. We hadn't been there before and were surprised at how nice it was!! The kids had fun in the water & Keagan had fun spraying Selma with water (Selma couldn't really figure out how to shoot the water at Keagan). Another great summer day!

My friend Melissa posts these photo collages on her blog and I just love them. So I am trying to figure out how to put them on my blog so bear with me while I learn!!!
