Charlie Jenkins

This week at the Davis County Fair Charlie Jenkins was singing. So Wednesday night we went to see him. We saw him sing on the Fourth of July and we really enjoyed the show, we even bought two of his cds. The kids have all the songs memorized and when they found out that he was going to be singing in the Fair they all wanted to go. Abby was especially excited for him to sing her favorite song. After the show we met with him and got a picture. It was a great show.

Our new arrival!

For those of you who didn't know, we got our new little puppy a week ago. Her name is Tess and she is a border collie. She is 6 weeks old and she is fitting right in to our family. Of course Thomas and the girls love her and they like to haul her around all day. Katy and Abby have been pretty good so far to pick up after her. But she is a sweety.

Forget the training wheels...I'll just ride the bike!

So we bought a bike for Madelyn, my four year old this summer. It has training wheels on it so that she can ride around with her sisters. Well that stupid bike has given us nothing but trouble the training wheels kept getting loose so we bought new ones an put them on. But they didn't do any better because they kept getting loose. So then we put the wheels on a different bike and let Abby ride the new one to see if that would work better, but that didn't help either. This week Madelyn asked if we could just take the wheels off and teach her to ride. Well I hadn't gotten around to teaching her, so the other day she just got on and rode it home from a friends house with a little coaching from Katy. So here she is riding her bike. Man my kids are easy!
