A bunch of new

Brooklyn is almost 3 years old and has been in a twin bed for a couple years now. Pretty normal sounding except we have had her box springs and matress on the floor this whole time. In the beginning we didn't want her to have too far to fall if she happen to roll around a lot in her sleep. Then it turned into me not being able to find the bed I wanted for her. Finally, I found it!! Nebraska Furniture Mart had the bed that I had envisioned for Brooklyn. My mom and I picked it up Saturday morning and Shane put it together for Brooklyn later Saturday evening. She was sooo excited to have her new bed!



We also got a new kitty this past week. A friend called and had rescued a kitten on her way into town. He had been rolled by a semi truck on the highway but was ok with the exception of a scrape or two. She named him Fin and called me to see if we could take him. He is extremely lovey so we decided to see how he would do as an indoor cat. After only a day he was litter box trained. Andrew likes to have him sleep in bed with him. Fin makes a great addition to our family!

A little July and August

I've been a little behind getting pictures/videos posted so I am going to try and catch up with this post.
I think I finally have it figured out (thanks to Meaghan's help) and have put up videos that I have taken this summer. This first one is when we took Andrew and Brooklyn to KC to see baby Caden. He would've been only a few weeks old.



We had Vacation Bible School at church late in July and the theme was Boomerang Express. here is a picture of Andrew at VBS for the first time.
Shane and I taught 2nd grade and had a fairly large group. We had anywhere from 11-13 kids depending on the night. It was a lot of fun, but exhausting too.
These are some pictures from the beginning of August for Barb and Grandpa Koci's birthdays.

This is a video from Heather's party this past weekend. This is a fairly normal occurrence between the boys. Why is it that boys can't seem to stop picking on each other? Maybe it's because they love it so much and they are kind of cute.
