Quarters at School
Alec’s school uses pretend quarters on a pretend piggy bank for their discipline system. Each morning, they start off with 5 quarters stuck on their piggy bank. Alec almost always has all 5 quarters and gets to pick something out of the treasure box at the end of the day. Well yesterday, I say, “How many quarters do you have today?” Alec says, “One gone.” He can talk just fine and perfectly clear but couldn’t get out what had happened. His friend Hannah pipes in, “He threw a book at Aiden!” And Alec immediately says, “He was trying to KILL me!!” Hilarious!! Apparently they both lost a quarter over that one!

Slipping and Sliding!
It's so hot yesterday, we broke out the slip n slide with our neighbors yesterday after supper!! This was Kaleigh's first slip n slide experience and she really liked it!! Although, I have determined that I am MUCH too old for it!! Surely it didn't hurt that bad when we were kids!! Ha!!
Riley and Mrs. Anna helping Kaleigh figure it out!
Kaleigh's hogging the slide and the boys aren't happy about it!
Finally she gives them a turn!
Whew, that looks UGLY!! Surprisingly, no tears were shed on the slip n slide!

We missed Sister!!!
I think Alec and Kaleigh really missed each other over the weekend!! After we all got home Sunday they were best buds!
A fun bath together, then lots of snuggling and playing in the bed!
Harley says, can yall just make them go to sleep!
Alec says, "Lets go play in my room!"
Kaleigh says, "No way, I was having fun in mom and dad's room!"
And after all the fun, this is how our Monday morning started.... Kaleigh was awake for a minute, then fell back asleep while I was getting her dressed, then she even napped for a minute in Alec's bed while he was getting dressed!
I feel the same way about Monday mornings!!
Happy, Happy, Happy Birthday!
That's right, we went to three birthdays Saturday!
First was Drew's Batman Party at Kids Rule!
Next, we went to Planet Gymnastics for Warren's 3rd Birthday!
Will, Warren and Alec!
Alec loved the rope swing in to the foam pit! This brings back childhood memories!
And then onto the Pony Farm in Purvis for Aiden's 4th!
Everyone got a turn on the horse!
Alec was going to feed her babies (top right) but she was after him for the cracker!
Hannah and Alec with the goat!
After we partied till we were pooped, we met up with Dad at the camp for more fun! Kaleigh stayed with Nana and Mimi this weekend, I didn't think she was up for three birthday parties and a camp trip in one weekend!
Taken about 8am, "I'm ready to ride jet skiis!" Why is it on weekdays, I can't drag him out of the bed and on weekends, he's up at 6:30!!
Helping Dad catch minnows at bedtime with the casting net! They caught a bunch!!!
Look what we caught, mom!
Sunday we went for a fun lunch at the Sloppy Dog, then made a quick trip to the beach before we headed back to pick up sis! I'm so happy that Alec enjoys the camp as much as we do!!
