Most people take pictures of the kids on the field. I prefer photographing the kids in the stands.

Which is why Mommy won’t let me drink it, usually. At Uncle Seth’s ballgame, though, Mammy had a bottle of it, and I just helped myself. Thirty minutes later I collided face first with a concrete bleacher. Maybe I shouldn’t have drank the Dr. Pepper. It does seem to make me crazy.

Owen is getting so big. He will be three months old in only four more days! Where does the time go?

Kyra was so tired when we got home Tuesday night that she fell asleep on the stairs on her way in the house.

Here are a few pictures from the zoo on Saturday. Chris had his company picnic there. We had a good time, as always.

Elijah rode a white tiger on the carousel.

Kyra just rode a horse.

Kyra was seeing if her wings were as wide as the condors.

Looking at the turtles.

Kyra got her face painted.

Since the older kids were going on a field trip to Crown College for a tour, Kyra and the other younger kids went on a half-day field trip to Hardees for lunch and to the park. Me, Elijah, and Owen went with her. They had a lot of fun. Even though it was just a very simple little field trip, Kyra was very excited about her first field trip.

Kyra and Bro Mike on the teeter totter.

Kyra had dropped through the jungle gym several times already, but she apparantly forgot that she knew how to do it. She looks scared here, huh?

Me and my boys.

Elijah was a little monkey!

Bro. Mike pushed Elijah in the swing. Elijah was pretending he was flying like Superman.

Mrs Tammy and Mr Magoo

The whole gang!

Owen with his Aunt Misty

Luke got stung on the lip by a yellow jacket that was on the rim of his Pepsi. Poor guy!

My brother, Jason, just came home from Iraq. We are so happy to have him home safe and sound. We were seeing him for the first time at Seth’s ballgame. He was very excited to see his nieces and nephews for the first time in seven months. He had never met Owen before, since Owen was born after he went to Iraq.
Here he is with Keinzie…

Elijah…

Kyra…

and Baby Owen.
