Sometimes there is so much going on in a big family, that it is hard to keep track and harder still to keep up. I continue to take as many pictures as I possibly can get by with, although there are always stories to be told along with the photos. So far the month of June has been a blurr! Ballgames, (softball and baseball), a weekend trip to the YMCA camp in Estes, a once-every-5-year reunion with Mom and my siblings, trips back and forth to the Candlelight Playhouse where Gabi has been practicing for her role in "Annie", a 2 night performance beginning tonight, and Grayson's 4th birthday. Today Nancy will come from California to see the play and then will take both of the kids back with her later in the week. I will post my favorite pictures from these past two crazy weeks!
Yesterday at the pool, I thought it would be worthwhile to get a picture of the seven kids together. Ok, harder than it sounds! I took about 10 shots to get this one.

Keva's first pool excursion with Grayson displaying how to get REALLY wet!
I asked Grayson to hold up his fingers to show 4, and he did. Later we had a Batman birthday cake and the birthday boy was all smiles until he fell backwards off the stool he was on. Only Gramma would capture the after effects!
Great Gramma played bridge on Friday and her driver (who shouldn't be) backed into the electrical box and knocked it entirely off into the street, never stopping, Wow! Good thing it was only THAT. Brad got out his shovel and was cheered on by Gabi.
We
had a couple of hot nights at the ballpark, and one day Carli brought Corbin to the house to get ready for his game. Are you ready for this? She allegedly has TWO more months until her baby boy is born! One of the biggest pregnant gals I've ever seen!
Amie and her kids participated in the Color Run and had a blast (along with 6500 other runners!)
And Emma's friend from Ogallala came to spend a week.
The YMCA was a great experience, enjoying the usual things: ice cream, wild animals, smores and sleeping on the floor and mini golf!

It's a wrap!

The sibling thing didn't go off quite as planned, but it was great getting together anyway.
