Day 79: Frontier City (8/12)

We spent one of the last days of summer at Frontier City. We had so much fun! The Gavin, Rallie, & Wes love to ride any rides! They are such troopers and willing to try anything and usually end up loving it. I wish I had some video of there faces on the "big kid" rides. After spending some time in the park we made our way over the new water works area. Another very cool part of the park. It's the perfect size for our kids. Not to boring for Gavin and not to big for the twins. Eisley loved it as well. We had so much fun and the kids were so exhausted. Perfect day to almost end the summer. 

Day 78: Tuesday's Helper (8/11)

My mom had a bus driver's meeting and asked that I come to Stroud to help dad and just run the register, just in case. I drove down last night and spent the night so that I didn't have to drive in the morning. Dad said that Tuesdays were pretty slow and for a bit we were, so we made two lists. One for the upcoming floating trip and the other was what dad was going to talk about at his Lion Club lunch. I felt that once we got a little busy, I was more hinderance than help. I messed up a few times but I was able to fix it. When mom came back, she bought my lunch for coming to help. It was nice to spend time in the hardware shop without having to chase the kiddos around. I also got some free stuff so it was a really nice time at True Value!

Day 77: Syncing iPads (8/10)

I GOT iPADS FOR MY CLASSROOM THIS YEAR!! I am super excited! I didn't have them last year and was always checking them out from the library. I was so lucky to get them this year. I went up to the school today to learn how to sync them and create profiles. It was harder than I thought and I didn't get it done today. It was running really slow and there were so problems. I know that I will have to continue doing this for a few days. However, you can't rain on my parade because I have a class set of iPads!!

Day 76: My Go Bag (8/9)

I LOVE my Vera Bradley bag that Sami got her bridesmaids as a gift. I carry it every where. It's the perfect size for either a diaper bag or an overnight bag. And blue is my favorite color and I don't have any monogramed items so it's supper fun. Thanks, Sami Jo!!

Day 75: Backyard Playtime (8/8)

Summer is quickly coming to an end. The days of being naked in our backyard are almost done. I don't know what they kids are going to have to do when they need to wear clothes all day. We started out in the pool, made our way to the sand box (best thing ever!!) and ended our time on the air plane. The sand box was given to us from a neighbor down the street, we add nice sand and a few sand toys and I can't believe how much the kids love playing in it. Whenever they make it to the backyard, they always end up in the sand box. We are slowly losing sand as well but I can't complain. They love it so much. 

Day 74: Finder's Keepers (8/7)

I found this picture on my phone, one of Gavin's favorite past times.  I asked him were the dollar was and he told me, he found it and he was going to keep it. I still haven't found it and I probably never will. 

Day 73: August Calendar (8/6)

So today we had to fill out our monthly calendar. As soon as we starting reporting to school there was just to many activities to remember between Rennie, Gavin and I. After I took this picture, there were a few more events to fill and I can only imagine what it will look like once school starts for every one. 

Day 72: Feed the Children (8/5)

Once a month, teachers of different districts are able to get free supplies from Feed the Children. Sami Jo and I decided to check out the first day it was open. WOW! There were a lot of teachers there! Whataburger was sponsoring the event and was giving out free food. I don't think it was such a good idea to go on the first day. A lot of the good stuff was gone by the time we got in. Oh well, there's always September. :)

Day 71: Big Brother (8/4)

Rallie, Wes, and Eisley love Gavin so much. It's crazy how they follow him around and want to be doing whatever he's doing. Today, Gavin was play his DS and Eisley climbed up onto his chair and under the covers just so she could watch him. Gavin helped her up and under and talked to her the entire time. It warms my heart to watch Gavin, Rallie, Wes, and Eisley interact with each other. 

Day 70: Dinner Out (8/3)

Sometimes you never realize how close family lives. After spending this Saturday hanging out with my sisters and Lish, Dana told us she would be in town for a conference Monday & Tuesday. Lish mentioned getting dinner and Sami and I chimed in that we wanted to join. It was nice!! Definitely something we should do more often. Lish lives in Norman, Sami in Moore and I live in Mustang (technically Yukon) but we live within 30 mins of each other. It's silly we don't get together more than we do. :) 

Day 69: Ever Since WWE (8/2)

Ever since the boys went to WWE, Gavin and Wes have been carrying around these WWE belts and wrestling. They take them everywhere we allow. It's so funny to watch them interact. Wes will take his shirt off and ask Gavin to wrestle with him. Wes is finally understanding some of the things Gavin wants him to do to play with him!

Day 68: True Value Grand Re-Opening (8/1)

Today, my parents had a Grand Re-Opening at their True Value hardware store. They had free hot dogs, bottle water, some give aways and a chance to win big prices. All the girls showed up with all the kiddos. Grandma and Grandpa Babinec also made it down to visit and see the store! It was so much fun. PopPop was a little stressed with all nine grandkids running around the store but it all worked out. It was so nice to visit with family and promote my mom and dad's new store.
