First day of 2nd grade!!!!

I know it is only July 27th but yes Coltin started school!!! He was so excited to get back and be with his friends. This was also the first year he was worried about his clothes. He picked out what to wear the night before. I think he picked well. He is pretty dang cute. He also wanted a picture of his really cool G.I. Joe backpack!!!

Almost all his friends from last year are in his class except his very best friend Jace is not, but he said it's OK Mom I will see him at recess! He is getting so big! :(

He had a great day and he says he really likes his teacher.

Next week my lil' baby will start Kindergarten:(

Yuba Lake!!

Over the July 24th weekend we went to Yuba lake for our Annual boating vacation with the Rentmeister clan. We had sooo much fun. The weather was perfect. Even though it was a little windy it cooled us off from the heat. Other than sleeping in a tent and making the wind sound like we were in a cyclone. Everything was perfect! Here are a few pictures!!

These pictures were taken from the shore so they aren't very clear, but these are of my stud muffin Coltin water skiing for the first time. The first time Curtis helped him get up off the beach. The second time he said I can do it all by my self and sure enough he did. I am so proud of him. He went to school on Monday and told his class he was the worlds best skier!!! LOL!!

Kip, Coltin, and Conner coming back from a tube ride. They don't think they are hot stuff do they?

We had the best time and wanted to make a shout out to Steven and Jaime for allowing us to come and ride there boat and taking my kids tubing and skiing. It made there summer!! And to everyone else thanks for making us part of the family. We love you all!!!!

LAGOON! It's What Fun Is!!!!

Thursday night we decided to take the boys to Lagoon on Friday. We got up packed a cooler and left. We went to Lagoon a Beach first. Besides the water being freezing and the ground tearing up your feet. We had a blast both boys could and did every slide except the drop slides. We had a blast. We showered and got ready for the rides!!!

Conner being so incredibly big. Carrying up his tube by himself and going down all by himself.

Coltin going down the slide!!

Lazy River!!

The tube slides we so fun. Super fast!!

The boys were so good (even Coltin if you can believe it). We went on almost every ride they could go on. Coltin got to go on the Colossus for the first time and even got to ride the new roller coaster "Wicked" (which is sooo much fun!) Conner was able to sneak on the Spider roller coaster and he loved it. We almost got Conner on the Wild Mouse. (Mind you he is only 1/2 inch under the height to go on most of the big rides. You have to be 46 inches and he is 45 1/2. Lame!!) We had so much fun and we only spent $25.00 (not including tickets to get in) which is amazing. That includes parking and tubes in lagoon a beach. The only other thing we bought were snow cones. We ate before we went, had late lunch at like 5 pm and bought snow cones. I brought in lunch and waters and a ton of snacks. It was a fun day!! (Oh it was extremely hot thought!!)

My camera battery died so I didn't get a ton of pictures of Coltin going on some of the big rides! I know I am retarded. Next time!!
