After unsuccessfully trying to make more room on our blog for more, we decided to just make a new blog. Our new blog address is:

It's Finally Happened!
We have run out of space on our Blog. I wondered how long it would last and how much stuff we could get on there. After a four year run, it was bound to be soon.
So say goodbye to 2005 posts!

Hair Cut and Stuff
More pictures from swim lessons. Cody had to just sit on the side and play with toys. He did a pretty good job for the most part.
Brandon climbing down a pole to get rings:
Brandon Diving:
Brandon jumping off the diving board:
Kathleen treading water. She is a fantastic swimmer. Her teachers were amazed that she was only 6.
Kathleen has been wanting her hair cut short for a very long time. But I told her she had to wait until after her dance recital so I could still put it in a bun. Well, her recital is done, and off went the hair.
We live in a very conservative area of the country. So it shouldn't have come as a surprise to me when Kathleen came home upset that Barack Obama was elected president. She said that he was evil and proceeded to tell me why. We had a long talk about respect and how different people believe different things and that doesn't make them evil. We also talked about all the good things about our new president. It didn't take long for her to come around. She wrote this letter to him. Before I mailed it, I had to scan it in. It was so cute.

School's Out for Summer!
Kathleen had a "Field Day" at her school on the last week. It rained and was cold and eventually they ended it early. But here are some photos of their activities:
Brrrrrr. Stick your hand in cold water to dig for marbles with a spoon.
Picnic day was much nicer. Here is Kathleen with her buddy Mikayla.
The boys just wanted to play on the playground. We played I Spy to try and find the boys.
Kathleen and her teacher.
T-ball fun:
Brandon:
Cody fell asleep on the way and slept through most of the game.
Kathleen:
Swim lessons have begun:
Cody takes after Brandon with puzzles. He put this dinosaur puzzle together all by himself.
Kathleen got all dressed up for Warren's baptism (the newest boy in her life). She really likes him because "he is hot!" When I asked her what hot meant, she said, "He is really funny. And he's 8!" There you have it.
Cody got assigned the "treat bucket" in nursery this week. He was so excited. He carried it all the way home. Then when he got there he went straight to the pantry and loaded it up with what he obviously wanted to have in his treat bucket. Then he hid the bucket behind the fruit snacks. So cute.
So I finally took the picture of the Garden boxes that I promised. But it is blurry. Sorry.
Here are videos of the kids at t-ball. Each of them hitting, and running home.

Family, "Graduation", Recital
At the zoo with Angela's favorite sister Alyssa.
Do you like the elephant's at the Boise Zoo? (In case you can't tell, they are fake.)
Making carmel things. (Apples and pretzels)
Cody is ready to go swimming. Our pool opened up Memorial Day weekend.
Playing on the trampoline with Kaylee and Tanner (Angela's bro and sis)
At the park playing wiffle ball. Cody took this picture and then broke our camera.
Cody
Ryan wears this badge when he coaches t-ball. It certifies that he passed a background check as a non-pedophile (at least through the end of 2009).
Cody playing catch.
Brandon protecting his head.
Kathleen getting ready to throw a strike.
Kathleen with Grandma Lisa.
Kathleen at the pool.
Brandon snuggled right up to Grandpa.
A picnic at Ann Morrison park with Angela's family.
Don't ask. Brandon got his shoes all muddy.
Playing at the fountain at the park.
Angela setting up her GPS for our maiden voyage into geocaching. She is assisted by Alyssa (favorite sister) and Marianne (cousin).
Contrary to the post on the Plumb blog, Ryan merely retrieved the geocaching treasure. Cousin Marianne actually spotted it up in this hard to see location.
Angela with her dad. (Nice hat!)
At the waterfall code named Terebithia. 
Brandon had his pre-school "graduation" too. He is the second from the left.
Handsome guys.
This is Brandon with his teacher Miss Denise.
Eating fruit.
Kathleen also had her dance recital.

She's a great ballerina. (She's the second from the left in this video from the dress rehersal.)
