Kaden turned 6! Really where has the time gone. To me he is still my little baby. Wonder if I will ever stop thinking that? We took the carpool gang to bahama bucks and had a cool refreshing treat. Then kailey brought home tons of snowballs and we had a snowball fight. That was a lot of fun for the kids. I think he had a special day. I love him so much!
We have been working on Makenna's new room for quite some time. Kyle moved out and so she got his room. Rob in all his wisdom decided to retexture the walls and put a smooth texture on them. It looks really good but I have had a layer of dust all over my house. What a mess. Rob eventually wants to do the whole house that way. Oh joy! So we have had fun going to goodwill and finding the bed. We repainted it. Picking our her bed spread. I will post more picture of everything we did. But for now here is a picture of her relaxing on her new bed. She loves having her own room. Kade has done quite well being on his own too. I worried at first because he thought he might be scared but nope....sleeps like a baby.
I was happy I was off of school and got to go watch Makenna. The whole 5th grade did this little thing on explorers. They researched the person they were assigned and wrote a paper and memorized it. Then they dressed up and were "statues" that would come alive if you pushed a black button on their desk. Once they were finished they would freeze again. It was really cute. Her explorer was Vicente Pinzon. She looked pretty close to her guy except for I made the black hat a little too tall and it looked like the popes hat. She did awesome! Interesting hearing about so many different explorers. All the kids looked great and did a fabulous job!
Our Saturdays have been consumed with Kaden and his flag football team the Tarantulas. They are undefeated so far so that is awesome. I enjoy watching him trying to figure out what to do. He really wants to tackle and has a hard time not doing that. He likes the contact. He is a good little blocker and I crack up watching him. I think we have 8 more weeks left. I just hope that the weather starts cooling off. It is so hot even so early in the morning. We are all sweaty messes by the time we get home.

I love Makenna's room. Lauren would just die of happiness if she had a mom who would help her decorate rooms and fix costumes. I'm impressed with your talents!
I soooo would like to have my walls re-texturized and flattened out. It makes paint look so wonderful. But you are right! The dust is awful, and you keep finding it everywhere. We will be waiting a few more years till I gather the patience for that one! I am so happy to be able to sneak in and see how your family is growing!
