FAMILY PLAY TIME IN STAR~

Three of the four sisters~

Hmm - again, you can tell that this picture
was taken before August 2nd.
I thought this was a fun picture -
taken from a fun angle.

We had all been playing together in the front
riding bikes, etc. after dinner.
Katie and Ben went home to put their kids to bed.
We were saying goodbye to Emily and Josh.

Zoe and Reece both warmed up to Auntie Emily~

The Three Amigos~

Reece and Zoe are drawing a picture for Grama~

Auntie Emily is reading a book to the girls~

This is the girls' car that they use to get around town in!

Reece loved pushing Zoe around~

Zoe wanted to take a nap with her babies~
She wanted Grama to cover her up.

After dinner, the kids were gathering together
outside in their little fort~

We celebrated Josh's 22nd birthday - while they were here.
Amy found mint brownies at Walmart -
and we added Mint Choc Chip Ice Cream.
He likes mint and chocolate.

Meal time~

Jordan was holding up Josh's bike while he pumped up the tire.

Jordan was in his jammies - but he didn't care.
He was having fun riding his bike.

Josh and Jordan - heading down to Owen's house.

Notice Emily and Josh's cars in the garage.
Josh is fixing the inner tube for his bike tire.

Zoe let Auntie Em put 'pretties' in her hair.

Jordan and Zoe had fun playing in their pool
with Auntie Em and Uncle Josh.

Jordan assured Uncle Josh that he would be okay swimming in his pool~

You won't drown!

I think they got together and well - look at the next picture!

Poor Auntie Em - got soaked!

We went bike riding - around the subdivision~
and then to Amy's house.

Relaxin~

Jordan wanted to vacuum for Grama~

He did a great job.
I remember he used to do it for me when he was two years old.

Grama - are you home?

The kids have their own road - in front of the house.
Their own cul de sac driveway!

Jordan was pulling his wagon - and travelin on~
off to see the great world and beyond!

These things are actually Emily's.
He found them in the garage...
loaded up the wagon,
and said goodbye!

Okay - us men are working out and stretching~

Jordan saw Josh stretching after running,
so he wanted to join him.

Like mother....like daughter.
Zoe wanted to fix her tummy like her mommy's.

Zoe is having fun with mommy and baby sister.
She knew baby sister would like stickers - especially smiling faces.
PS: August 9, 2009:
Can you believe Jordan patted his mommy's tummy
this morning before church and then~
he said to Amy, MOM, she isn't kicking anymore!!"
ah... no comment!
