For Dad

This week I've been working on making Drew a collage of pics for him to have at work. I finally found a frame that had 7 openings in it. Some of my favorite pics weren't the direction I needed, so with a few grumbling children in tow, I started snapping away with the camara. I think he'll be happy with how it turned out. Here's a mock collage of the pictures used. The real gift is a black frame with matted openings.

Chick-fil-a

For all the Chick-fil-a fans out there. A must watch!

We know school is closing in fast...

when everyone in the family gets new shoes on the same day.

Please slow it down. We're not ready to give up our summer yet!

Look who's home

This is what we saw coming down the street on August 21st.

Out came Sis. Ashcraft (AKA: Nana)

Inside we found Bro. Ashcraft (AKA: Papa)

They are finally home from their mission! The kids had fun watching and helping Nana unhook the Hummer from the motorhome.

While Papa caught up with Rylee on her golf.

Our kids are so lucky to have grandparents that serve the Lord by serving missions. They are such a great example to them. We love them so much.

And we are so glad they are HOME!

Nine is Fine!

Can you guess which one is 9 years old today???

Happy Birthday Hudson! We are off to Disneyland.

Look at this face!!!!

Peyton finally made it to Chuckie Cheese for her Birthday dinner! She has been telling us she wants to go to Chuckie Cheese almost daily since September. I honestly thought it would be one of those things that didn't live up to the hype. She just thought it was ok when we went the last time. Boy was I WRONG!
The girl knew what she wanted and loved every minute of it.





Pizza, cake, presents, cousins...
What more could a 3 year old need.

Girls just want to have fun

When the boys are away, the girls will play.
Last weekend was the Father and Son outing.( that's a later post)Whenever that happens it's Girls Night Out! This year Amy-Sue, Sabrina, and Tabitha joined us for a night of fun.
