this has got to be considered an ART piece...our friend Doug Christiansen that did this for us did an amazing job...now just to get it sealed and the faucets put in and we will be good to go...

the TRAMP and the BIG fish tank...

this was seriously the BEST SURPRISE ever...i had been on line doing some research on trampolines because we didn't want the NOT SO BOUNCE short spring one from walmart again...so i had found a place out of California with free shipping and such and ran

it by Mr Hoggard well he didn't say a word and surprised us by ordering it...

we were so dang excited...breckyn can do a full front flip and land on his feet after his dad showed him it could be done...then ashley wanted in on the action so she practiced and practiced and finally landed one as well...we are loving it and having a GREAT summer...
so we upgraded the fish tank to a 55 gallon and i LOVE it tons...so beautiful...

1st tooth GONE...breckyn...

so yesterday at Marcie's house breckyn had a run in with a plastic toddler car...he was laying on top of the car and ben haller decided to take him for a little ride...well he fell off and hit his tooth on the other plastic toddler car...thank goodness it was the tooth that needed to come out because his permanent one was coming in behind it...so here it is ready to come out....

he let daddy get a hold of it and whalla...out it came...
YEA!! no trip to the dentist for us...can you see his big tooth coming in??
