What's been goin' on

We've been busy the past few days, but I like it like that! We went to Silver Dollar City on Thursday with Jill and Lauren. It was a great day to go - overcast most of the day and not too crowded. We've been twice this year, so I guess we've justified getting the season passes!


I don't know exactly what this was called, but I would not call it a "ride". It was more like a "work". You had to pull yourself all the way up to the top, and then you got to slide back down. Payton did her best to help, but we're gonna have to get her in the gym before we go back and try that again....
The bunny that kept pooping on Payton (3 times to be exact). At least they only shoot pellets....
Oh look - it's a picture of Payton sleeping! This was 4th of July morning on our way to El Dorado.
Scott and Oliver doing the guy thing and shooting hoops!


Going for a ride around the house. This is one of the kids' favorite things to do at Papa & M'laines. The all-time favorite - sparklers! You have to get closer than that, Paty!
Our friends Leslie, Paige, Ryan, and Blaire came over yesterday for lunch and a swim, even though Leslie and I were the only ones in the pool most of the time. Here are the girls having a picnic snack in the garage.
And Leslie & cutie-patootie Blaire in the pool.
Then today, my uncle Henry and aunt Pam brought their grandsons over for a visit. Corey and Christian live in NC, and we hadn't seen them in a year and a half. They all had so much fun! We'll have to get them together again soon - and longer next time!

Hey thanks for throwin' that pic in of me in the pool. Appreciate that.
Matt's older son looks like Marc when he was younger. At least in the picture.

I thought Leslie was a blond! Did she color her hair...or was it just wet?
Remember all the "blond" jokes, Les? Anyway, tell Bruce & Rose...Gomer(Ronnie) says, hey.
