Kearny Carnival

Carnivals aren't really my favorite. They usually charge you and arm and leg for lame rides, carnies are creepy... hmmm.... yeah, those are my main reasons I guess. We were invited by the Richards family to go to the carnival in Kearny, so we thought, what the heck, you only live once. And we went.

I just have to say, I had a great time! Its so fun watching your kids experience childhood. They went on rides, we ate nasty fried food, they watched their dad go on a really scary ride and nearly barf, we ate cotton candy, it was great! 

Avery had so much fun, she got a bloody nose!
 This was Isla's first ride, she wasn't so sure about it
 Avery and Brooklyn (who are ride wusses) loved this one, although, we had to convince Brooklyn to ride it!


My favorite was the giant slide that you go down on a carpet with. We went down 100 times!

It was a good night, and in the future, you might find me blowing wads of money again at the next carnival!

Yellow belt

We were so proud of Avery. She earned her yellow belt. It wasn't easy. She had to memorize, recite,  and perform in front of scary Master Kim. He doesn't take any lip and he is very strict and can be a little harsh. She struggled with remembering her routine... shoot I don't remember the right name for it. But she would go in early before class and also have kids come over to teach her after school. She finally got it! I'm so happy she is doing Tae Kwon Do. This is teaching her discipline, hard work and you get what you work for. Good job Avery! And please don't ever beat me up!

Sometimes we do fun things without the kids

We woke up early and hiked with our friends. It was nice!

Chicks

We decided to add more chicks to our lonely coop. White Snow needed some company. 
Here they are: Meet

Moonlight is Brooklyn's

 Dottie is Isla's

 Sunshine is Avery's


They are so cute! Lets just hope that they survive Brooklyn and Isla. They sure know how to love hard!
