A look through August of 2009

Here is a look at August.

We'll start with our "Lack-of-Lake"

After the flood busted out the dam, our water disappeared,

and now this is our pitiful lake. :(

Middle School Softball

This was Ali's first year to play middle school fall softball.

Meet Miss Gracie

the newest family member at John & Vicki's

and Ali likes to visit :)

Brimfield Carnival

Cody driving in the mower race. He got first place in his age group, having the fastest time, and also the only one not to hit any pins.

What a B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L sight!

This was the first time I didn't have one of

my youngins home with me at least part of the day.

Dustin had to start wearing glasses the end of August.

Now instead of Dennis the Menace, he looks

like Ralphie ~ and he tends to have the foul mouth to go with it ;)
