Grandma Whitehead's House!!

The chickens chase Brooklyn all the way out to the swing set. Brooklyn wasn't to sure about them chasing her. lol
It was funny. The chickens just thought she had food for them. =)

Grandma Whitehead got her some bread to feed chickens.
Boy, did they like the bread!!

Then they decided to see if there were any eggs.....
Yet....only four that evening!!

Brooklyn had fun getting the eggs for Grandma!!

Brooklyn's Last Day of School at the Park!! =)

It was a beautiful day to go to the park and boy did we have fun!!
This park is probably the best park we have ever been too.

It was a GIANT fortress and kids went crazy!!







Playing with her friends in the giant sandbox!!
Snack time: Capri suns and goldfish....what more could you want!! lol

Brooklyn loved the Miracle-round, but it made me sick just watching her on it!!!


Last picture of Brooklyn's K-4 Class. They all made matching shirts to wear to the park!! They all look so cute in there shirts!! =) It is hard to believe this year is already over!!

My New Best Friend.....

Jason work (Lifetime Fitness) was having a big sale on their "old" equipment. Jason and I decided we needed a treadmill, because I really don't like to work out in front of everyone. It was a BIG chore getting this thing in our house, but thank goodness we had Ben and Leah helping us out. I know it was really Leah and I that did all the work....just kidding!!! =) We finally got it all hooked up and ready to go last night. In fact, I tested it out last night during the Biggest Loser....lol!!!! I really do love my treadmill. I have missed having one. Well, I am off to walk and run.


Sorry, don't mind the mess in the background!! I still need to pick up the house before I leave for work!! =)







Maggie decided she wanted to get on the treadmill with Brooklyn!!

Random Happenings

Brooklyn's soccer game. She scored another goal!!! Way to go Brooklyn!! =) Great Grandma Whitehead and Papa came to see her game. Thanks guys for coming.






Brooklyn and her neighbor friend, Payton. He loves to play with her and I love to see them play together because he is the same age as Levi.





Backyard Wildlife!!
In the picture above you can see a little baby fox. We can watch them play every morning from our kitchen window!! Our neighbor and I are thinking we need to call the DNR to have them removed from their back yard. They are cute but they can carry rabies and I am not okay with that!!
In the picture below you can see a Robin sitting in her nest. We are hoping to get a picture of the babies soon. This tree is right by our deck so it is fun to listen to her sing every morning. =)



This is just some of things we have been up to lately. I know it has been a long time since my last post, but we have been busy. Jason just finished on one of his hardest classes ever and got an A in the class. This means he still has a 4.0. Way to go Jason!!!
Brooklyn is almost done with school (YIKES) and is staying very busy with soccer (her new found love.)
Oh.....we just got the boys their bunk beds and I can't wait to get them together. Jason says we have to wait to put them together until the room is finished be painted!! God really gave us an amazing deal on them.
Update on the boys.....there is no update!!! Our social worker (Julie) still hasn't heard anything yet so that means we haven't heard anything either.....uggggg!!! I know that God know what is happening and that is okay with us!! =) As soon as I hear something you will all be the first to know!! =)
