Field Day 2008

Every year, Katie's school has field day to celebrate the end of the year. All of the children compete in crazy competitions. This year, Katie was on team Xavier. Here she is hanging out with her team... Katie in the "holey" bucket competition.
Don't spill!

They have to keep their hands connected while and get through the hula hoop without letting go.

And Katie loves having her picture taken - and extreme close ups!

My Daughters love to do my hair!

Danielle and Katie love to fix my hair. So, on a rainy nite, while watching 'So you think you can dance', they decided to give me a new do... I was a little nervous.... After 20 mins of brushing and teasing, this is what they came up with..... Ohhh 80's hair.... oh how I do not miss you AT ALL!
Quick, brush it out before the fashion police arrest me!!!!
Ahhh... back to normal... : )

Another Pool update!

As you can see, our pool is actually starting to look more like a pool! These are the steps into the shallow end. Here is a look at the whole pool and hot tub.
They started adding bricks today.
Tomorrow we will get the tiles put in. We can hardly wait!The whole family likes to sit in the backyard and watch Blue Haven work! We can't wait till the pool is done and we can go swimming!
