Animals

My oldest is an animal lover.  Her favorite is horses of course.  Every time a new movie comes out or book lands in her lap, she discovers a pet she would like to own. We have easy ones such as a Saint Bernard (big, but doable),  a horse (we live in town, so a no go),  tigers and lions (my husband's allergic to cats, does that count?) and now the latest, from the movie Brave, she wants a bear.  I love her imagination to own wild, exotic animals.  Some day she will realize they belong in the wild not in a her house... I hope:\

Park fun

We took advantage of a beautiful evening to take the kids to the park.

 

Lil' Man enjoyed the climbing bars with daddy.

I attempted to get pictures of all 4 kiddos together. You no, because we hardly have any of all of them together (looking at the camera).

 

After several tries, I remembered why. 

So solo ones will have to do.

 

We had so much fun! It is always fun, though, when we are all together as a family!

Got Water?

 

My Lil' Tomgirls...

playing in the dirt.  Love they have no fear of getting dirty, even if they took a bath before noon and I am guessing there will be another one before the day is done.
