Devyn's 5k

3rd place in his age Devyn ran in the 5K at the Owa-Chito Festival this year. He came in 3rd in his age division. To me just finishing was great but he was really excited when he realized he beat his cross country coach.

Owa-Chito Festival

We went to the Owa-Chito Festival in Beaver's Bend like every year. This makes my 14th year to go. Wilbur has lost count as he used to go with his Grandparents when he was little. It is a great tradition he loves to share with his kids. It almost every year comes on Father's Day too. Daryl Worley was the entertainer this year. The kids had so much fun at the concert and Darci did good in the kids games during the day. She got 2nd place in the sack race and first in another basket game which she teamed up with some kids she didn't know. She has really come out of her shyness lately. Bret is happy no matter what as long as he is with Devyn. He is Dev's shadow these days. Mom came down and spent the day with us too.

New Waterdog

img_Jul_07_2009_45_49 Last year Darci was the waterdog and B wouldn't have anything to do with the water, not even a kiddie pool. We went up to Cossatot Falls Sandbar last weekend and Bret was like that baby on the Blue Lagoon Movies. He just dove in and laughed when he went under. There wasn't any of that keep and eye on him it was all Wilb and I could do to keep our hands on him and keep him from swimming off. He loves it and WILL be taking swimming lessons soon. Darci had fun too but she has always loved the water. I couldn't get very many pictures but this one says alot. :)

Happy 4th

img_Jul_07_2009_50_38img_Jul_07_2009_51_03 Darci, Bret and I went to Uncle Johnny's house for a picnic during the day on the fourth. It was a good visit and good homemade ice cream. Daddy had to work but he picked up some fireworks when he got off. We had a good time just staying home that night and doing our own thing.

Addicted

I'm addicted to facebook and have been neglecting my blog.


I also have to figure out how to resize pictures with Vista on our new computer. Anyone have any suggestions??

Cake

yummy Bret and I went to pick Darci up at Mena last weekend and we went by WM to get a few more supplies for VBS and we ran across this cake. We had to have it according to the kids. It was yummy. The lettuce, ketchup, mayo and mustard is made of buttercream icing.

Boomerang Express

I know these aren't the best pics to tell about VBS but the kids had so much fun. I worked in the crafts as I have for the past few years. Bret got to go rotate with a class this year for the first time. He has always been in the nursery. Ms Cathy Gilbert is wonderful. She had 12 little ones around B's age every night and she kept up with all of them. Darci had fun in her class too.
