Hilton Head Island, SC

My parents invited us to Hiltonhead, South Carolina as they do every year.   I was determined to take any and all of our kids that could go!  There is always a conflict and we haven't been there in quite awhile.  Kristie and her friend, Elizabeth, came along with Camryn, Callahan and Kenzi.  We loved the pool and the ocean.  
I couldn't wait to see what Kenzi would do with all that sand at the beach. She loves her sandbox at home, so I thought this would be the biggest sandbox she ever saw!  What was her favorite thing to do at the beach?  JUMP THE WAVES!!  

Can you see my dad and Callahan in the background?  They spent their time at the beach IN the ocean jumping waves.  Love it!
This coloring page comes every so often in the American Girl magazines.  When we needed a break from the sun, the girls would work on their coloring.  Camryn loved having 2 big sisters for a week!

Academic Challenge

Carson was chosen to participate in Center Middle School's Academic Challenge competition.  It was really neat.  The questions all came from subjects they had covered during the year.  He did a great job:) ~Teri

Kyle's Senior Pictures

Are these just the BEST pictures of our Kyle, or what??  He has always been so photogenic.  Our friend, Lara Ellingson, took Kyle's senior pictures for us and I LOVE how they turned out.  He is such an incredible young man:)  He will be working with Scott and Cable Ties Unlimited, going to online college at Full Sail University and working on his Watch Warehouse website.  He just moved to an apartment fifteen minutes away in North Royalton. ~Teri

Kitty Camryn

The first graders had to dress as an animal for their First Grade Music Program.  Camryn is the cute kitty in the middle of some of her sweet friends.  They are also in our Daisy Troop with us.~Teri

Classic Kristie Picture

Kristie loves to stamp and scrapbook and it is even better when done with her sweet friend, Elizabeth!! ~Teri

Las Vegas

Scott and I went to Las Vegas for the National Hardware Show in May.  We got to see my brother Chris and his sons, Ben and Jacob.  We took Flat Stanley with us everywhere we went, so we could help Camryn complete one of her projects for first grade.  I love this picture of Chris and I:)  He is SUCH an awesome guy!

Pinewood Derby

Callahan's pinewood derby car made it to the district level again this year!  How exciting!  Go Callahan (and Dad!)
