Summer Highlights!

I am long overdue at making a blog post! We have had a very full and fun summer. So I thought I'd share a few pictures. Enjoy!

Mimi and the girls.

Mimi gave us the Zinnias. The girls are doing great at watering them and keeping them alive.

Thank God for waterproof casts! John Caedmon spent 3 weeks of his summer in a cast. We were delighted he did not have to have it on for longer. But he is supposed to be careful with his arm for a month now. How is a 4 year old boy to do such a thing?? Just a few more weeks and then he can wrestle again!

Chloe helped teach Abbey how to ride her bike. What sweet sisters!

Abbey did great learning. She learned to ride in just one afternoon. We were all amazed!

Chloe loves to dress up fancy!

Laurie, Dawn and Dawn's sister from England on our front porch. Rebecca loved the baby swing. We love it too.

It is so neat that it was ready and waiting for us when we moved in to the parsonage. That was one of the first things I noticed about the house when we were interviewing at Agape. I wondered at the time if it was a sign from the Lord. Maybe so...

We enjoyed having the Knowles and Platts over. We had a huge slip and slide that the youth had used. The kids loved it.

Slip and slide fun!

Kassidy's First Birthday!

She is wondering why I am letting her get messy and is sticking out her hand to show me how messy it is!

Cousins!

What a cutie!

Kassidy is slowly learning to walk. She took 10 steps on this day!

Kassidy was dedicated to the Lord at our church, Agape. This is us with my parents on baby dedication day.

Princess Chloe and Princess Abbey had a great time at their cousin Sydney's birthday party.

Our sweet little boy broke his elbow. He flipped off a chair in our living room and landed wrong - he hyper extended his elbow. He spent two days at the doctor getting it checked out and getting a cast.

I hesitated posting this picture, but it is just too cute. And it is very telling of all the work and craziness we went through this day!! Chloe was quite a trooper through all this ordeal. She thought it was funny to have mayo put in her hair. We were unfortunately exposed to head lice. Our first attempt at using Mayo did not work. Later that same day we used lice shampoo. Whew! What a day that was. Lots of combing and cleaning everything and washing.

Isn't Kassidy so cute in her swim suit? We always enjoy swimming at the Fargs!
