Getting her ears pierced.

Madison and Olivia, both 8 years old now, were able to get their ears pierced FINALLY! Holly and I took the girls to Clair's in the Mall to get the deed done. It hurt a little, they said, but it was worth it. How cute! I love that they wanted to go together to support each other.

The Fire Pit

We decided to put a fire pit in our back yard,

and almost as quickly as we decided, it was done

thanks to help from Tony and a couple of neigbors. We invited Cary's family over to celebrate the first fire. It was a warm night but we enjoyed sitting around the fire and watching it burn while we ate dinner and had good converstations. We all smelled like we had been camping, but it was worth it. We have already had several fires in it to share among freinds. Good times!

Good Freinds

Kate and Jared have so much fun together. Thats the great thing about having siblings. You always have a freind!
