Music Concert

Payton had his last music concert of elementary school last week.  It was all done with instruments such as drums, sticks, and xylophones.  It was a different kind of concert and really neat to watch.  Here are a few pictures of him dancing with sticks.  

Here he is playing the drums.  Sorry about the picture but when you have to sit in the back with a two year old you take what you can.

Poor Cadynce

Well Thursday Cadynce jumped off the neighbor's couch and hurt his leg.  He at first just hobbled around for two days and then stopped walking all together.  So Saturday we went in for an x-ray and found out it was not broke and were told to go to the orthopaedic doctor on Monday.  Today we had more x-rays of the knee and hip but still no one knows what is wrong.  They told him to wear a brace and walk with a walker and give it another week and a half and if he still cannot walk they will do an MRI.
Here is a picture of Cadynce and his walker.

Beckym thought he needed a picture with the walker too.

Cadynce dont seem too upset about it but he hasn't walked with it since these pictures on Monday.  He hates it! As of today he is doing great and walking on his leg.  He is almost back to normal so we are waiting for a call back form the doctor saying he can do without the brace. 

Trip to Iowa

Well this past weekend Cadynce, Beckym and I made a trip back to Iowa to see mom and dad's new house and hang out a little.  It was a quick trip but we got a lot packed into a little bit of time.  I got a little picture happy so here are a ton of pictures from our trip back.  The second day we were there it rained so I got my makeup out and did make overs.  I started with Emily and then mom.  By then the boys were up and thought they needed theirs done along with Harper.  Here are some photos of our makeovers.  Harper with blush, eyeshadow and lip gloss.

Lake picked purple eyeshadow.

Cadynce picked blue probably to match his shirt.

Wow what a sexy momma!!

That night we had a bomb-fire and when we got there it was a little too big to roast hot dogs and smores.

Harper got hungry and just ate her hot dog raw right off the stick.

Leave it to Brandyn to rig up someway to roast those hot dogs.  See them way up high taped to a tree branch?

Proud of his work.

Lake taking a big bite of his smore.

We had to get Bray's frown on camera.  What a face!

Bray feeding Beckym some chips.  Its a good thing he didn't bite her.

A little excited for a bite.

How sweet!

Yes even Cubby and Kinze were there.

I am not sure what to say about this picture.  They were busy inspecting their smores or something.

At the end of the night the fire had finally calmed down.

Then it was time to head in for baths because we all smelled like smoke.

After bath was dance party time and then straight to bed.
