Aaron with his completed Lego Starwars Spaceship. Thanks Grandma Centra! 
Aaron has decided that saving $50 toward s a Wii really isn't that hard. Rather than do countless chores (which would actually require him to work, oh no), he could just pull out all his teeth. He has lost 4 this week! He's already started wiggling #5. If he doesn't knock it off, we will put all this money towards braces instead! He told grandma he better have spaghetti for dinner on his birthday since he doesn't have any teeth.
Sis got a new grocery cart from her Aunt Jennifer. She plays with it constantly. She informed me that next time we went to the store, she could push her cart while mommy pushed hers. The next trip to Super Walmart is going to suck! 
Here is the star of the night. She loved having all her friends come to her birthday party! She hates cake so we tried to go with pink cookies to win her over; turns out she hates frosting too. We should have gone with popsicles! 
Despite the fact that Kelbre usually loves attention, she HATES being sung to or bothered by large groups of people. At least she has brothers around to blow out her candles!
So my kids are bored out of their minds. We don't start school for another week, Aug 25th, so in the meantime, I thought it would be good to learn a bit about the Olympics and Ancient Greece. During our studies, we learned about the Greek lifestyle and how they dressed. Aaron decided to dress up as a greek for fun. The funny part though was when Daddy came home, Aaron exclaimed "Daddy, I got to dress like a Geek today!" We'll work on that....
Now she can keep up with Robby and Aaron!
Pretty in pink! A package arrived from Grandma Centra. She sure knows how to spoil a girl!
Kelbre discovered Barbies this birthday. She plays with them constantly! Now if she can get Aaron to stop stealing the boy barbies!
Hilary, Kelbre and Brynne
Being silly in the water! 
Robby, Morgan and Aarron at a water park near our home.
Robby has developed quite the passion for swimming this summer and has decided he may want to join the city swim team this fall. Aaron is doing fantastic too, if we could just get him to swim in a straight line and not in circles! As much as Robby has enjoyed learing all the strokes though, his passion lays in diving. Which leads me to a crisis last week......
So, I had a moment last week when time stopped. I really believed we just had a life changing experience and that Robby was hurt very bad. He loves to dive and has done back flips off the board several times. Well, he was showing his teacher what he could do when he failed to jump "out" and went "up." (which means he came straight down) So I hear him hit and see lifeguards jump in the water instantly. I have never seen them move so fast! I expected to find blood when he surfaced, but all he said was "that hurt." He was totally calm. Turns out he left his arm straight up in the air, so when he hit the diving board on the way down all he did was hit and scrape his arm. His head never touched it. Once he got out of the water and saw mom, then the tears started to flow. Through sobs he declared, "I am never diving again, well except for one more time to show daddy, but then never again." Luckily, he has already been diving again, but I think back flips are going to be a no-no for a while.
