Things I missed...

I missed a few events from the past months... here's a quick recap:
We went to the drive-in, it was SO awesome!  The kids watched the first show (Ice Age), then they fell asleep in the back while Dave and I watched the new Batman show.  It was super fun (and cheap)

We went to Lakeside and Elitch's thanks to our local library :)  Fun rides, scary rides, wet rides, and funnel cakes.

Lydia started soccer.  I'm too cheap to pay for the full uniform.  Hence, the green shorts :)  She scored a goal the very first game, but her favorite part are the snacks at the end.

Aunt Linda came to visit from Texas.  She's so fun to have around, and her dog "cindy rose" is a hoot!

Our elementary school does a BBQ at the beginning of the year.  It was great as always, and Lydia got such a pretty face paint!

We changed our front yard.  The rocks and flower bed used to just be grass.  I, however, drive on the grass often :)  So, we changed it to rock and I LOVE it!

We can finally do long bike rides as a family. With no one in training wheels we can even do a little off-road.  It's been awesome.

These next two pictures are out of order, but it was when we were shoveling rocks Lydia and her friend wanted to help, look at the size of their shovels!  So stickin' cute.


And last, we planted two apple trees this spring.  One of them gave us two apples this year!  We thought it was hilarious that these big apples were on this little tiny tree.  Picking these and eating them was a big event in our house :)
I think now we're all caught up!
