Legoland

So as you may remember, I was out of town for Madison's birthday so yesterday was her birthday surprise. We took her to Legoland and then we went to their waterpark.

Madison rode all the roller coasters and loved it! And below is proof:)
McKinley and Madison were on the front row and David was right behind them.

I have always liked coasters but the older  get the less I am liking them. This was a wooden coaster and they make to many creepy sounds so I don't ride them.

We spent about 3 hours in the park and then spent the last 4 hours at the waterpark. I put my phone in the locker so sadly, I didn't get any water park photos.

Now we are off to the beach to spend the last few days of David's vacation relaxing by the Ocean.

Oh and If you are wondering where Morgan is in all these pictures? Well she went on vacation with her friend, Natalie. She is having a blast! They have spent the last 2 days in NYC..( I am totally jealous, because I've never been) and they are heading to Maine tomorrow to spend the next week at the beach at her friends family beach house. I miss my girl!

Happy Hump Day!

KIDS CAMP

I am trying to play "catch up" here and update what all we've been doing. The week after Morgan got back from youth camp McKinley and I left for a week in Ga at kids camp with McKinley.

It was a very busy and fun week..... It's been a while since I've chaperoned a camp and to say I was tired when the week was over is a understatement:). The camp was lead by CentriKids and all the staffers were college students who were AMAZING! I cannot tell you how great each and every one of them were.  Below are some pictures from that week:

Yes, that's a tutu I'm wearing......Don't ask!

As you can tell by the pictures, alot of fun was had by all.

There was a staffer named Katelyn, who is a Pastor's daughter and she really made an effort to spend time with McKinley and talk to her about things Pastor's kids go through/struggle with. Katelyn even ate dinner with McKinley one night.

McKinley & Katelyn

We got back Friday night from camp and left on Monday for a quick trip to Alabama to see family.

next up: Madison's birthday trip!

SEVEN

This little cutie turns SEVEN today!

Madison has gone from this:

To this:

I am sad that I am not home today to celebrate with the little firecracker, I am away this week with McKinley in Ga at kids camp. But I know her daddy is making today extra special and I will be home tomorrow to celebrate  with you.

Happy Birthday Madison, Mommy Loves YOU!

Madison's birthday celebration will be in a few weeks so more on her birthday coming later:)

Del Ray

We spent a few days last week in Del Ray beach. It was a nice little mini getaway. Morgan brought a friend along because I took them and McKinley to an R5 concert one night.

London went too!!

Madison showing off her skills:)

We found a little place called Vic & Angelo's that we loved back in March and so we went there our first night back in town.

I didn't realize until the night before that the concert was OUTSIDE....in JULY...in FLORIDA! UGH
I am not a big concert person but Morgan loves them so I decided to take McKinley because she had never been to a concert and the lead singer is in one of the Disney shows that she watches.

 I survived but I will say McKinley takes after me! An hour into it she was ready to go and she complained about the music being to loud:) Love her!

It was in a very pretty area and had lots of shops and restaurants.

I did get one day at the beach to get some reading in.

On a different note, Morgan headed out this morning to Daytona for student life camp with our church. Please say a prayer everyone stays safe & healthy and that the Lord does some amazing things in the lives of the 55 high schoolers that went.

well this happened today....

And I would be lying if I said I was happy about it! My first born...with her learners permit....how can that be??

Morgan is teaching me how to take a selfie..I need more practice!

Now don't be fooled by the picture above, I only let her sit in my seat and take a picture...I did NOT let her drive home!!!! NOWAY, That is going to be David's job! I have two other children that I need to live for:)

And while Morgan and I were having all that fun waiting at the DMV for an hour (gross) The two Little girls were at a friends house having a play date.

Happy Monday!

Recap of our Fourth

I hope you all had a great fourth of July.

We went to our friends house with several other families and had a great time grilling out and fellow shipping.


How many kids can you get on a swing??

There were swings, trampoline and even a zip line at " Camp McCall":)

The girls had a blast, somehow I didn't get a picture of Madison on the Zip line, but she loved it too!

McKinley & Savannah

Morgan & sweet Micah

There were 22 kids ....and no one got hurt..I call that a success!


Happy Birthday America!
