Catching up

Hello everyone! It's been a while, I know, but things have been busy. We've had birthday parties to go to, Dr. visits (Chloe now weighs in at a hefty 12 pounds, 2 ounces), out-of-town visitors like Cara and her new man Dave, and Clayton's dad who for some crazy reason doesn't mind driving cross country! We've been swimming in our neighbor's pool again, and we've had soccer practices and soccer games (Kevin is awesome by the way!) We had a school picnic one evening, which Kevin and Darcy enjoyed, although who wouldn't enjoy Chick-Fil-A, lemonade, and a BROWNIE?! Darcy, Chloe and I have also played and picknicked a few times with our church friends. We've had a couple of weekend meetings at church, Clayton and I have both volunteered in Kevin's classroom, and we've had dinners with friends. One night we had our movie night with some soccer friends and watched The Little Mermaid. Kevin and his friend Emily hugged each other during the scary parts. :) Then, later Kevin asked Clayton, "Dad will you take a picture of Emily and me hugging?" Clayton replied, "Sure, if it's ok with Emily." Kevin said quickly, before Emily could answer, "It is." (Is he a firstborn or what?) We went to the Gwinnett County Fair with Grandpa Johnson and the kids rode a ton of rides and had no fear! Today is picture day for Kevin, so we got his hair cut (and Darcy's too) at Snip-Its, a cool kids haircutting place yesterday. And this morning on the way to school, we saw 2 deer in our backyard right next to our swingset! They were so peaceful and just looked at us as we backed out. Clayton took a picture with his cell phone, so it's not the best quality, but it was pretty cool! Happy Birthday to all you September babies: Michael, Maddie, Dad, Jenny, and Mom...in that order! Phew, that's a lot of birthdays to have in a five day span! We love you all! I'll try not to wait so long to post next time!

Kelly! Could you be any more busy, lol? Fantastic pics of everyone. It's great that the kids are so occupied. They are going to remember these fun times when they are all grown up:)

Love you tons!

You need to add a few more things to your schedule. :-) I hope you're able to relax a little on the weekend. Love the pictures - the kids are so precious! We love you all.
