August

Dempsey had a her 2nd birthday at the park.  She just wanted to play at the playground, with her new doll.  Someone would tell her "Happy Birthday" and she would say, "Happy Birthday" back.

Zeke's first day of second grade.  He  chose this outfit.  He reminds me of a little Alex Keaton with his shirt tucked in and buttoned to the top.

We have been playing in the yard a lot also.  Dempsey wants to go out there first thing in the morning. I don't blame her.  A fresh day is exhilarating.

We went to the Grand Mesa several times.  We hiked around lakes and up mountains.  We camped.  We haven't been fishing though.  Sorry Zeke.

Kicked in the face.

I guess you can count that it was eight at soccer, but I got kicked in the face twice at school.  So that would be ten times...I also got hit in the nuts three times.

Whirly and Swirly

I took Dempsey to church without underwear. She took it off right before we left.
Luckily, I had some in the car. She stayed dry for the whole block.

Zeke's definition of a miracle:
Something that is surprising, that people cannot do, only with God's help.
