1st ANNUAL UNICORN FESTIVAL!

We held our very own 'Unicorn Festival'! Kyra wanted to go to a unicorn festival, so we made our very own festival! Silver magically turned into a unicorn! We were so lucky to have some of the girls at our unicorn festival. Kyra had a blast! Even Hunter sat on Silver for the very 1st time!! However, I don't think he will be into the horses:)

The amazing jumping Happy!

Cousin Connor and Auntie Missy came to the festival!

All smiles!

Hunter started taking his first steps by himself this week! He made it about four feet at one time! We are all very excited, but not as excited as him!

LILY BIG UNICORN FLOWER

We visited the local pet shelter last weekend and found MANY dogs and cats looking for homes. We found a black and white puppy that we all fell for! Needless to say we drove home with this 6month old puppy. Kyra proudly named her LILY BIG UNICORN FLOWER. We are calling her LILY for short. She has fit in right away. Lily has not messed in the house and she sleeps all night. Most importantly she LOVES to play with Kyra!

VISIT TO GRANDMA GRACIE'S

We went to Grandma Gracie's house and visited with both Grandma Gracie, Great Grandma Alverta and Cousin Jennifer! It was SO great to see everyone! Kyra with Grandma and Great Grandma

MINNESOTA 2009!

We just returned from Minnesota and an eventful trip! We had wonderful weather, but we also had two sick kids! We missed the fireworks as we were in the ER getting the kids checked out. We made the best of it and enjoyed as much as we could! On the bright side we were able to enjoy time together and with family!

Enjoying the sun!

Yeah! Swim time!

Wow! That is COLD!

Max would live at the lake if he could! He is a water dog in a terrier's body!

Happy's first trip to Minnesota, he even swam!

Hunter swimming and loving the water!

Matt and the catch of the night:)
