This year has started out great. The kids love school, lets hope is stays that way. Taylor is in fourth grade, she has Mrs.Thompson as her homeroom teacher. Kassie and Hayden are in first grade, Kassie is in Mrs.Collins room and Hayden is in Mrs.Cates room. I have took pics of the kids on their first day of school since they was in kindergarten. I can't help it, I love to take pictures....
Kaleb and Hayden ready to ride the River Rampage.
Taylor and Michaela being SILLY:)
Kassie is such a Mommy's girl...
We took a break to enjoy some grilled corn on the cob.
Okay, so we wasn't wet enough. I think the kids had just as much fun here as they did on the rides.
We had to get a pic with the silly hats on....
Michaela and Taylor being so COOL:)
Every year we always have Taylor's party at the Rockwood Community Center. Taylor loves to swim so it works out perfect. We all had a great time. This is the first year that I have ever made her cake, or I guess you could say cupcakes. But Jessica had give me a recipe for homemade butter cream icing had it is very good. So I decided I was going to make them this year and I thought that they turned pretty cute. I had made a cupcake tier for her cake then bought cupcake holders from the bakery for the rest. I made eighty cupcakes that day. Back to the party, it wouldn't have been one if Jeremy Hicks didn't push someone in. Jessica and I was the lucky girls this year that got it. After singing to Taylor, the kids decided to get into a food fight. There was pizza, chips, and cupcakes everywhere and on everyone. I guess you could say it turned to be a pretty exciting party. 
Aubrey had to smash a cupcake in Taylor's face:)
Now you see who started the food fight.
I can't believe that my little girl is nine. She is growing up so fast.
Sorry for all the pics, you can never have to many.
The night before Taylor's birthday party, we had a sleepover. We all had a blast, including myself. Aubrey and Hayden headed to Knoxville to find something to do, cause Hayden said he was not staying there with a bunch of GIRLS... I turned the den downstairs into a dance floor. The den does not have any windows so therefore it was dark. Jessica and I had hung a disco ball from the ceiling to turn the den into a dance room. We had so much fun dancing and singing karaoke. Later we watched, of course, Miley Cyrus in concert. But let me tell you that we had danced all night to the new Miley Cyrus CD that Taylor had bought at Walmart earlier that day just for the sleepover. Before the girls laid down we done a little twister. I laughed so hard at those girls. It reminded me of going to sleepovers when I was a kid. Of course that night I did act like a kid again. 
Here are the girls dancing. It really was fun:)
The girls actually sat still for about thirty minutes. 
And here we go. These pics are so funny:)
This one I must say is my favorite!
After discussing where they was going to sleep, they finally got settled in.
Rudy even said he was sleeping with the girls. 
Of course when Aubrey and Hayden got home, he had to join the fun. Brittany got to be the lucky girl Hayden slept by. Taylor gets so mad at Kassie and Hayden for always wanting to be right there with her. But I keep telling her she is the BIG SISTER and they look up to her.
