Featured on this blog are pictures of our kids, grandkids, the dog and the cat doing all kinds of different activities that keep us very busy. Some of the activities include: baseball, basketball, volleyball and track.
I don't think that Rachel will ever be happy with her hair. She seems to want to change it every other day. This picture was taken of Rachel by Rachel. Big surprise there.
Bailey has recently become the 4th Stratton to become a Girl Scout. She started her scouting adventure last week by attending her first Brownie meeting. Next weekend, she gets to go on her first camping trip at a local speedway. They will be having a dance the first night, sleeping in tents in the in field, and watching some racing the next afternoon. She is very excited about being a Girl Scout.
After Joe refilled the pool, the water was cold and a little dirty. At 70 degrees, Joe thought that the kids could get in the pool and stir up the stuff at the bottom of the pool. They got in for a little bit, but it was too cold to stay in for long.
Rachel will be 14 this week, so she had her birthday party on Saturday. She and her friends hung out in the backyard for the afternoon. She seemed happy about the party. We gave her a cell phone and a working digital camera, she got lots of weird things from her friends.
Natalie was ready to go out the door as soon as she had her backpack on her back. I made her first day of school outfit myself. I thought it turned out very cute!
