End of Summer Pool Party!

Grace, Celeste, Sophia and Maddie jump for joy! It is summer and time to play in the pool before they go back to school. It was a good day!

Maddie and Nate wanted to have a pool party before they headed back to school. After a postponement, due to bad weather, we finally got to have it on Tuesday. We had 6 little girls and 3 boys. The kids had fun!

Our boy turns 18!!

Andrew with his ice cream cake. I usually order one with golf stuff on top, but he changed his party day at the last minute so I had to get what they had. He got one with a red rose on it. At least it matched his shirt!
Andrew opening gifts. He was a happy boy that day.
Andrew and some friends hanging out on his birthday.
We got a thumb's up from Andrew on his birthday. He liked his gifts.
These kids spent many a night on this couch watching movies and having fun. Charlie and Dallas left for their missions today, so this photo is in honor of them. We will miss you! Good luck!!

Maddie played the part of Patch. Her big line was, "Horace and Jasper were goin' to bonk us on the heads and...and...do us in!!! She stole the show.
Maddie loves being on stage.
