AUGUST Celebrations

What a month we have had!
First of all our harddrive crashed from two lightening storms that we had in a row. It knocked our lights out too. We are on well water, which means we can't use our water when the electricity is out...makes for an interesting night... like little house on the prairie. The bummer thing about the hard drive is that I lost all the pictures I took in July...I hadn't been able to back them up on the extra hardrive we have. So we have a new computer. We went for a laptop. I can use it much more. The good thing about doing our blog is that I have some pics from the blog. So not all is lost. Trying to work on a postive attitude.
Second of all, Ken got in a car accident and wrecked our Sienna. Basically $10,000 in damage. It wasn't his fault, thankfully and he was only a little sore. We had a white Kia for awhile as our rental and now we have our blue van back.

Ken's 32nd birthday. (August 29th)


We have celebrated two birthdays (Caleb (4) and Ken's (32). We had our 2nd annual Shrimp boil.....and Ken's Parent's came out to visit. Toby is into everything also. Hard to adjust to such an active little guy. So, It has been a very fun and busy August. Our September is going to be even more crazy-Ken's sister is getting married in Jamaica...



"our 2nd Shrimp Boil" the hottest day EVER!












Caleb's 4th birthday (August 18th)





"Help me Tobi One Kanobi! You're our only hope!"
We are officially a light saber family.
Toby doesn't play with any of his baby toys, he just wants Caleb's toys.

Toby loves his doggy. Elliott is the best dog. Makes me sad to think that one day he will be gone. He lets Toby crawl all over him and hug him.



For Caleb's b-day we took him go-carting. He had a blast!
Toby was Ken & Caleb's biggest race fan!
At the go-cart park we went water tubing. Caleb said he enjoyed this more.

Caleb drew a picture of himself killing spiders in his hands. He is getting quite an imagination.


Ken restored a little table, but still has to restore the chairs. They are the perfect size for Caleb and Toby



My mother also celebrated her birthday August 31st. Hope it was a good one Mom. Wish we could have celebrated with you!
