Dancing girl....

I could not help to post this. The girls were watching some princess/barbie movie or something and it has a music video on it. I caught Kalei dancing. It was funny. I didn't get the camera quick enough or I would have caught even more of it!

May so far......

We have had a very busy month. T-ball and soccer in full force. All my running(which I think is kind of becoming a pain in the you know what, but I can't quit now!) and now it is finally getting nice which means more outside time! We took the kids to Fairmont Hot Springs on the one weekend of the month we did not have soccer. The kids had a blast and it was fun to see them having a fun time! Last weekend we went "camping". If you want to call it that..... we basically took the camper about 2 miles out of Missoula and parked it at a RV park. It was a beautiful weekend, and it would have been nice to go out in the real woods.... but I am afraid to go to far from my running partners as my long runs are on Sundays and I DO NOT have the motivation to do them by myself. I need the group to motivate me. The kids also had a b-day party on Saturday afternoon. So even though we were "camping" we still made several trips into town! Again.....the kids had fun so that is all that matters! I have posted some pictures of our activities so far.

This is Jackson cool dude wearing his shades and hat. He loves to wear his hat!

The girls running off the extra calories from their donuts.


"mmmmm...I lub donuts"


I took the girls to the College Rodeo. We went with some friends. This is the girls with Hannah's "boyfriend" Carter. She is smitten.....ha ha...as you can see she is leaning in to him.

Watchin the Rodeo with their cowboy!

Thomas the train is serious business.

Jackson has no fear. He could touch here and is just walking around. He never once lost his balance and went under!

Kalei runing the bases at T-ball.

t-ball....is so boring. most of the game is spent playing in the dirt.

Last night we went to the store and Jackson came out with a bike helmet(Dan was really worried about him always wearing the girls pink princess helmets). On the way home we were having a conversation about camping and what we could do while camping and Hannah says to Dan. "Daddy you are really going to have to keep an eye on Jackson when we are camping". She's a little mother!

Then and Now

Do you see any resemblance to the child on the left(top picture) to the child on the bottom? Take note that the picture on the top was taken in 1974.



WOW.....and people think I am a xerox machine.
