Random-ness

Just a few random pictures...

Our neighborhood had its annual National Night Out.  We've never used a monkey leash with any of our kiddos, but with this many people and such a small area, we decided to break it out for Ella.  She loved her little "backpack", it was pretty cute.

 Casey is usually pretty timid when it comes to bouncy houses and slides, but he just kept getting in line again and again!

 Ronald McDonald.

Haven't seen this guy for a few decades!!

 Casey has been practicing how to write his name.

 He is super excited to go to preschool this year!

 Adam says that if you just lay down on the ground, all the kids will come running to play.  It's true.  (Even if they decided to bury him with grass!)

 Ella watched for a few minutes and quickly joined in!

We had a family reunion and Ella was giving everyone high fives and huge smiles!

 Ella and Maddie throwing rocks on the beach.

 All the boys throwing rocks!

We have a book called Night Night Little Pookie.  On one page it says, "Will you wear the pajamas with cars or do you prefer the pajamas with stars?"  Little Pookie shouted, "Stars and cars!"  One night, after Casey dressed himself for bed, he said, "Look Mommy, I'm wearing stars and cars!"  

Awww.
