No more training wheels

Carissa's will be turning 5 in twelve days. She is such a good girl. Very easy going and loveable. She is never moody or grumpy (just like her daddy). Mike has been encouraging Carissa to take off her training wheels. She was very hesitant at first but decided to test it out on Camden's bike. After a few tries, she was ready to take her training wheels off. We went to the church parking lot and let the kids ride around. It is an open space and that made her feel comfortable. She did great! We bought her a bike that is more for her size for her birthday. I know she will love it! Then we will put the training wheels back on and pass it on down to little miss Addison. Can't believe how fast they grow up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




Smores...Yummy!

These pictures are from the beginning of May. Mike and I decided to make a fire so that we could roast some marshmallows for some tasty smores.
The only wood we had was from an old tree that Mike cut down some time ago. We also only had a few newspaper ads to start the fire with.....um yeah, we had to roast the marshmallows really fast because the fire went out only minutes after it started!

The kids really enjoyed them!

Even though we weren't able to enjoy the fire, we had a good time making and eating smores!
