Finally, I'm getting a little closer to being up to date with the blog! August was another busy month. The kids enjoyed having friends over a couple times, Ethan did football camp and of course shopping for school supplies is always a treat. :) Here's of few pictures of the end of our summer!
Watch out for these crazy drivers!
The kids got some fun experiment kits for their birthdays this year from Aunt Ang. Here they are creating a volcano. We are also growing crystals, which has been a lot of fun too.
Another end of summer event, the Dekalb Supper. This year Rick Santorum joined us.
Allison enjoys dumping out all the toys so she can stack the boxes. Seriously what fun is that? She also loves building towers out of blocks and knocking them over. Which seems a lot more fun to me, a lot smaller mess too. :)
Some of my flowers turned out pretty well this year, despite the lack of rain this summer.
Love zinnias!
We spent lots of time in the coalmine watching the guys ride.
Elijah is getting faster and faster!
If you're friends with me on Facebook you've already seen this one. The big kids told me one day that Anton was using a shovel to lift a mean chicken we have, so he could get her egg. I thought this was hilarious so a grabbed my camera next time he wanted to gather eggs.
See it works! :) This kid is crazy about gathering eggs! Next year we'll have to get more chickens so he has more eggs to gather.
Amelia's first day of second grade.
Ethan's first day of 5th grade.
