I had to get a picture of him climbing on the bus for his first bus ride. One of the big bummers for my kids is that they don't ride the bus to school seeing as how we live only a few blocks from it. So the first bus ride is always a big treat!

Our Memorial Day Weekend
Avynlea and I going down the little hill.
Rylee fell and got a little scrape but her big brother was quick to take care of her.
Cute little Rylee and Dawson.
Kefford took the little ones for a turn on the small 4-wheeler. Here he is with Rylee. She knows how to work the gas and one has to be careful when riding with her because she will really take off!
Now Avynlea gets her turn. Going for rides on the paddle boat. All the kids thought this was great. Kefford, Dawson, Justin, Davis, Ryker and Brooklyn
Then it was our turn. Brooke and I got quite the workout paddling ourselves around! Brooke, Avynlea, Elizabeth, Lexus and Kenedy Rylee with a dirty hand!
Kefford took our kids out for a ride. Kenedy tried to be helpful and paddle with Kefford but he was too fast and her legs were not able to catch up!
The kids really loved the Hot Tub and spent a lot of time in there. Kenedy and Lexus gave Avynlea "swimming lessons". I am not sure how much better she can swim but they sure did have fun!
Our four cuties enjoying nature on our nature hike.
Ryker had one walkie talkie and Kefford had the other one. On our hike Ryker would constantly run ahead and then say random things into the walkie talkie. He thought he was pretty cool!I caught Avynlea being a mommy to Rylee, she was rocking her in this chair and singing lullabies to her. Rylee really enjoyed being babied!One of the last things to do before we pack up an dleave was clean off our 4-wheeler. Rylee really liked helping Kefford with this job. Such a cute little helper!
We had loads of fun this trip up to McCall and hope that we can do it again soon!
A good time was had by all!

ALOOOOO-HA
After we ate we painted each others toenails. That was fun. I found a cute pink but then when I saw the cool blue my neighbor had I had Kenedy borrow it and redo my toes with that color. Kenedy had me do her toes and her fingers and she really enjoyed it!

Vintage!
Here is Avynlea when she was two also wearing this little dress. She is actually the first one to wear it and unfortunately not Kenedy. When Kenedy was at the right age to wear it I do believe I put it on her but Kefford made fun of her and said she looked like Laura Ingalls. So I took it off of her because I did not want other people to make fun of her. When Avy came along I did not care anymore what people thought, I thought she looked cute and that is all that matters. Kefford still trys to call Rylee Laura Ingalls when I put the dress on her but I just smile and ignore it!

Blackhawks are cool!
Career Day
Here Kefford is trying to talk a little bit about glasses and how they are made to Rykers Kindergarten class. This class already had 3 or 4 previous demonstrations on different careers and had just about had it. It was a little frustrating because they were Kindergartners and thus acted like Kindergartners but Kefford kept his cool and didn't let it phase him a bit.
Color Me Mine!
While Ryker really enjoyed his Blue bath.
Kenedy also got an orange bath but she is too old to have pictures taken of her in the bath tub. Ryker is really pushing it and I have since decided no more bath pictures of Ryker. It was almost comical having me and Kefford directing him in twisting and turning his body to make this a clean shot. I think we succeeded but no more!

Some fun randomness
This weird flu thing only lasted one day and of course by the time Kefford came home Rylee had been able to keep down her medicine so she was feeling great and was happy and alert. Seriously Kefford, she was sick and I couldn't do anything all day! Thanks Rylee couldn't you have pretended to still feel sick so I wouldn't look like a slacker Mom?
