New Bike

My Dad fulfilled a life long dream and bought a Gold Wing motorcycle while we were there. The kids thought that was GREAT!

Tennessee Times

These are some more pictures from our time in TN at the end of July. Things have been a little busy around here for me since our MOPS year started! Abigail and Ian are definitely my water babies! They LOVE the water!! Soren likes the idea of the water more than being in it. He has always been my cautious one.

Oh the Challenges

Oh the challenges of getting 5 people to all look and smile at the same time! Sometimes you just have to take what you can get!

Computers

Soren got this Thomas computer for his second birthday and the kids LOVE it. I think it ranks in the top 3 all time favorite toy! Even Ian loves it! It was definately worth every penny. Even though the mouse no longer works and so you can't play some of the games, it doesn't matter - they Love it anyway!

Lastest Cullinary Adventure

Mmmmm....Doesn't this look good? We bought some blackberries at the Farmer's Market and used them to make a pie. I had never made a blackberry pie before and I must say it turned out quite good. This is actually my second pie (or what was left of it when I remembered to take the picture!

Pictures

We had pictures taken again of all the Richards Grandchildren in July. They have to take a certain number of poses so they got some of my kids by themselves too.

Creative Culinary Skills

Sometimes I impress myself when I come up with something fun like this. However, don't be too impressed since the idea wasn't original! Soren and Abigail think I'm cool anyway and that's what counts!
