Random pictures...

The McCauleys, the McDonalds and the Joneses all got together last week. It's been too long! Kendal, Shay and Avery were all born back in the VP-1 baby boom of 2002 :) It was fun to see all the kids playing and dancing and having a great time together.
No, Julie, Kali and I did not all plan the brown shirts :)
Brandon, Kali, Walker and Kendal

Avery is playing soccer again this fall. Sometimes she seems to be having a great time and other times she doesn't want to play...we'll see how this season goes ;)
Cooper hammin' it up on the sidelines.
Speaking of hammin it up...Avery's sunglasses and ice cream...life doesn't get much sweeter!

More Disney!



We spent two more days at Disney over Labor Day weekend. We went down with the McDonalds and rented a house near Disney. We spent the first day at the Magic Kingdom. Cooper has been talking about Donald Duck since our last trip, so we were happy we got to meet him. Cooper wasn't super happy of course, but not as scared as last time!
The kids all did great even though it was about 90 degrees. Coop and Reagan took a time out in the afternoon and even slept in the strollers at the same time for a little bit. The fan sprayer Cooper is holding was a life saver! Avery and Cooper each had one~I learned my lesson from our last visit. I found some for $10 at Dick's Sporting Goods (vs. the $17 they charge at the park!)After the Magic Kingdom we went to dinner at the T-Rex cafe at Downtown Disney. I don't have any pics of that~maybe Julie does :) The kids had fun there, but we were all very wiped out by then. It was nice to go back to the house and let the kids swim and then crash :)
The next day we went to Blizzard Beach, one of Disney's water parks~~a great way to spend a 90 degree day at Disney! We had a fun time~~the big kids and the dads had fun on the big slides and there was plenty for the little ones too :)
We even got some ice cream to cool off at the end of the day...
