This is Nathan to Rowan "Did someone paint you? You look dark brown, did someone paint you brown"?  Rowan said "But, God painted me" :)  We've never even said anything like that to him, it hasn't come up!

How we saw the eclipse.

Peach Picking at Schnepf Farms

Ivy, Tracy, Ella and Kyle

Jenna making it to the top!!

Kyle took such good care of all the girls :)

YUM !  We had to eat some peaches as soon as we brought them back to the car.

Pre-School "graduation and promotion" followed by the Ella's lunch choice of Red Robin....yummm

Miss Heidi, Miss Nikki and Miss Tracy.

So cute, wish it wasn't blurry.

Our little girl is already going into Kindergarten.  Mark sings "School bag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning......."  Makes us get a little weepy. :)

Ella get's one of the graduation rings from the cake!

Ella's to the right of Ivy's head in the picture :) 

You can tell it's getting hot out, the animals all come in and fall down together.

The Haboob ! We had decided to do some more concrete molds yesterday and just as the concrete was mixed the Haboob came through. Our concrete for that square is colored brown because of all the dirt that blew around the yard. I couldn't even see, I had to have my shirt over my face to finish it. And Ivy stood inside the screen door yelling for me to hurry!!! Then she finally ran out saying "We'll save you Mommy"!! So funny to hear, but this girl likes storms.

It was so windy!

"Look Mom, is this a green bean"???  (one of the seed pods flying around)

Yes, Rowan had his ears plugged the whole time.

A piece of mesquite we got for "Grandpa".  There were so many trees broken down the streets.
