Kenley using my hairband for sunglasses,   and abusing my kitchen bowls,   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~over the weekend, we decided to get a hotel close to Busch Gardens and spent a day there, so the night before Micah's came over to hang out w/ us, it was a great time, and the kids played and played,   sword fighting w/ arms and elbows,   us, over run by our own kids,lol My sweety and I, XOXO we went to McDonalds and had coffee and ice cream till late, giving ol' McDonald some lovin', ha we went on the "Griffin", kind of known as the baddest roller, and bless Micah and Melissa a hundred times!!! they watched our kids so we could run get our thrill in, hehe, and what a thrill it was! I've been on these before but never one so absolutely horrific, I mean it was exhilarating and fun, but the most terrifying thing I've EVER had the priviledge of doing. I discovered that screaming helped me deal w/ the vertical drop of around 200 ft, so scream I did, I could'nt help myself. Matt had a woman beside him who had her fingers dug into his neck and afterwards we were looking at it, and there were claw marks! ahhhhh! lol they held us up here for 6 sec. so we could get good and scared,  then the vertical!!     our fantastic, splashy ending!! one more last look at the most fun things in life, I'm definitely going back! then we got to relax on a nice train ride around the park, it was awesome to sit after having pushed a stroller, w/ a kid in it all day long, walking back out to our car, in a traffic jam on the way home. Matt told me I oughta remember this the next time I think about traveling by car,lol. I was rather bored so I took pics to pass the time, stuck my head out the window and let my hair blow itself into a crazy tangled mess, awww, but it felt goood. A bored kid, this is how Matt clips his nails, me, and only half my face, lol the girl in this white car was laughing at me taking pics, so I told her it was b/c I was bored, and decided to take her pic, such a fun weekend, I did'nt want it to end!! but normal life keeps going, so we live for the fun times and the little joys along the way, eh?

Happy Birthday to my sweet lil' men, they turned 2 and 4 the end of June, here we are lighting candles,  and blowing them out, Grandpa and Grandma Lee gave the boys 20.00 =) it was perfect to buy the extra train tracks w/ that they so badly needed to connect the tracks, thanks mom and dad! They LOVE it, opening the gift from Dietrich and Jonathon, so sweet of them to do that for the boys, me reading Friedrich a bedtime story, While working Micah managed to get bit by a brown recluse, it was completely black in the center and had a red ring all around it, it looked pretty aweful, so Melissa sat down w/ her tweezers and cayenne drops, she had to open the black spot w/ a pin and pull it out piece by piece, Micah said if his coffee runs down his shirt, we know he passed out. It looked painfull, as she was digging around,=) (PS. DRAMATIZATON) hehe! he was such a good sport tho and took it like a champ.
     Later, relaxing on the back porch and teasing Dietrich, Sunday morning we went out for breakfast and the little guys were sooo wired, after breakfast we went walking on some trails close to our house, I loved what Micah came up w/,=) this is THE prettiest flower I think I've ever seen! wow, and the scent was powerful, lol What else do girls do w/ flowers,=) Friedrich sitting under the information sign, and Kenley in the store w/ Melissa and I, he was using Melissa's flower pot for his hat, and had the black ladys fussin' at him,lol

Mom and Leah, this was my nasty looking, old bookcase, I gave it a whole new make-over, lol (just some black paint) it's amazing what a little bit of paint can do....=)
  Last night we went out w/ my girlfriend and her hubby, since it was also her little boys birthday, they gave the little guys huge bowls of free icecream w/ chocolate fudge and whipped cream, for their birthdays. Very sweet of them,=) They loved it, but none of them took more then afew bites before saying they were too full, so the dads snatched them up pretty quick, LOL,  The bandaide on his cheek is b/c just before we left the house, he managed to fall down the brick steps, poor guy. I just wanted to take lots of pics of the boys, to sort of celebrate them.  Kenley was trying to grab my camera here, somehow he just missed getting his hand in the way. being so darn squishy,=) my friend's kid, Micha, it was his first day of potty training! fun stuff that!=( Kenley almost could'nt take staying in this seat the whole time, but I fiqured it'd be good discipline for him, since he basically does'nt have any,lol.   We were trying to get Kenley to make silly faces, so that's what this is all about,=) here they actually all held still for afew seconds, imagine! I think I like this one b/c it's so weird, lol The boys opening up their birthday gifts. We're having cake and icecream later this week, w/ some more friends. and that's pretty much it for now, =) and he loved all the presents, which made me feel sooo good!
