Kennedy's Summer Dance Classes

Kennedy loved hip hop so much this last year that she wanted to try out some other types of dancing. She tried out tap, jazz & ballet & liked them all! Kennedy in class with her friends Emily & Eimi.
Tap class-have no idea what this move is called.

Kennedy & Eimi in ballet class. Now this is the stuff I know.

Rock Stars

Brad has the Rock Star game and the girls were in Heaven. They had a blast bashing on the drums, jamming on the guitar & singing along! Mackenzie on drums.
Katie did her band teacher proud on the drums. Grandma, not so much.



Visiting Brad's Pool

The girls were thrilled to get to swim at Uncle Brad's awesome pool. We also had an early birthday for Hannah & Mackenzie since we will be in Utah for her actual birthday. Hannah & Kennedy chilling in the hammock.
Kicking back and relaxing.

Drew & Katie trying to dunk me. Which was totally uncalled for because I had finally gotten INTO the water. Very mean, guys. Very mean! It was COLD!


Father's Day

We went to Midland for Father's Day this year. Drew got breakfast on the couch because he didn't stay in bed long enough to get breakfast in bed! Mackenzie chose a pink cooler for her dad for Father's Day. Also a card that called him the Grand Poo-Bah, from the little poop. She chose it herself.
Kennedy gave her dad and Indiana Jones movie.
Katie also gave her dad an Indiana Jones movie.
Kennedy & Hannah goofing around.
The girls posing with Grandpa for a group picture. This is best out of seven. It sure is hard to keep 4 girls still long enough to get a good picture!

Princess Camp

Mackenzie went to Princess Camp this year to learn how to be a princess. She went with 2 of her best friends and learned to curtsy & be polite & dainty & princessy. They did a little ballet number for us on their last day of class. I would put it on the blog here, but I don't want to figure out how to do a movie right now. So take my word for it, it was really cute! Mackenzie with her friends Morgan & Elissa.
Mackenzie with her paper doll that she decorated.

Mackenzie with her beautiful wand & in her princess dress.

Posing after the last class. They are so adorable!

Dutch Village with the Triplets

Emily and I decided to take our 8 kids to Dutch Village for some fun. Yeah, I know 8 kids and fun don't seem to go together, but it really was fun. Thank heavens for quad strollers is all I can say. Mackenzie and Morgan at a tiny table

Hunter's Birthday Party

We went over for Hunter's first birthday party. He had a great time with the cake, once he finally touched it! He sure is cute! Hunter with the truck we gave him.

Logan with the truck we gave Hunter. I don't think he gets that it's for Hunter and not for him.... Of all the lovely presents I got, smelly shoes were the best!!!

Have some cake!
