The dog gets a bath!

Brendan and Roman decided to give our dog (Nya) a bath this morning. She hates water and put up a pretty good fight breaking half of her nails. The boys have done a great job walking and cleaning up after Nya, and she loves them. Our Doberman is a phenomenal family dog, even McKinsey will pet her (she is normally deathly afraid of dogs).

Visit to Yosemite!

Today we visited Nana & Grandpa Hatch at their house in the Yosemite Forest.

 

Dress up!

McKinsey decided to put on her makeup and try on some giant earrings today. After she was all finished we took her picture because she wanted to see herself.

Brendan earns awards!

Today Brendan returned home from school with a medal. He was awarded this medal for his stellar mathematical skills. He was doing math one grade level  above his own. He also received a certificate for outstanding artist ability.

Quite the athlete!

Brendan has become quite the athlete. He loves football and is looking forward to Junior league in Reedley this summer and fall. Brendan also made the track team for his school this spring and ran the 400 meter and 4 x 100 meter dashes. 

Brendan wins award at Pinewood Derby!

Brendan had the best looking Pinewood Derby car, and his truck took third place at the races last year. He is a great Cub Scout and he is working towards earning his Weblos award.

Field Trip!

Brendan and Roman visited the state capital building in Sacramento.

McKinsey gets Baptized!

Our Beautiful McKinsey was Baptized shortly after her birthday.

Three of a kind!

During the summer of 2011Brendan, Roman, and Connor were laying out on the patio chairs drying off after playing in the water and our littlest guy decided he wanted to be just like his big brothers!
