The Castle Hotel

We went and stayed a night in the Excalibur hotel downtown. We were looking for fun things to do this summer so we decided to try out a hotel and their pool. The kids always like to see the hotels when we drive by going to California. We swam in the pool; it had a waterslide that Danny loved. And we brought junk food and watched a movie at night. The kids just loved it and we all had a great time.

Casey's Wedding

Seth and I went to Houston Texas a couple weeks ago for Casey's wedding. We had a great time. Seth was wonderful on both flights and for the whole time we were there. He's so easy-going and adaptable. We just love our little angel baby. He went swimming for the first time there. He was a little unsure at first, but then he got into it and enjoyed splashing around.


Casey's wedding and reception were perfect. Kami is so great. We're excited to have her in the family.

Aaron

Aaron was the first one to wake up this morning so I asked him to come snuggle in bed with me for a little while. He did, reluctantly. But he told me that "when you snuggle, you have to touch heads". And Aaron consistently tells us he has "super powers". "I have kicking power and punching power and running power." He's my favorite little Super Guy.

He's also super sneaky. If there's candy or treats in the house, he can find it and eat it before you know he's missing. Bob likes to eat chips, but he's found they all get eaten before he has a chance if he just leaves them in the cupboard. So he hides them in his room. Yesterday, Bob had just eaten some of his chips and Aaron came over and was quick to investigate. He got close to Bob's face and said, "You smell like chips". I'm sure that hiding place will be discovered soon.

Rachel's Prayer

This is Rachel's bed-time prayer lately:

Please bless us all to have good dreams. Bless Danny to dream about Transformers. Bless Aaron to dream about Monster Trucks. Bless me to dream about Unicorn Pegasuses.
