Bailey got today's Game Ball

Strike One

Ball

Strike Two

Bailey eventually hit the ball, both times she got up to bat.
Since she was the only one to hit twice, she got the game ball.

Broken Dryer

The heating element went out in our dryer.

This is what your house looks like when you have
two loads of wet clothes to hang up to dry.

Wet shorts.

Wet shirts hanging to dry in the shower.

Senior Night

Thursday night was Mallory's last home volleyball game. It was senior night.

All of the seniors were introduced with their parents.
I wasn't supposed to be there, so I just took pictures.

The seniors and other starters got a limo ride after the game.

Crazy seniors.

Aunt Mallory w/ Ella

Mallory spent this past weekend visiting with one of her older half sisters and niece, Ella. If you look closely, you can see that they have the exact same eye color.

Ella is just over one year younger than Natalie.

What a cutie!

Mallory and Ella built this Lego person.

Halloween is Near

Rachel & Taylor went to the dollar store and bought all of these decorations and decorated the house on their own. Doesn't it look great?

Doesn't Joe clean up nice?

Joe went to a retirement ceremony last weekend
and wore his new suit. Doesn't he look great!!!

Homingcoming Dance

Rachel went to the Homing Dance this year.
Doesn't she and her "date" look nice?

Sisterly Love

Do I even have to say anything about how cute these pictures are?

Webkins

Bailey and Joseph got new Webkins.
If you don't know, Webkins are the latest craze.
Webkins are stuffed animals that come with a secret code that allows you to play games with your pet online.
