We are in Mountain Home visiting Gram and Papa.  Kallee loves to play dress-up and get animals and Barbies and play pretend under Gram's and Papa's table.  She told me this was her "Club House."

Throughout the summer Kallee and Jakey have been taking swimming lessons from a girl in the neighborhood.  They are doing well and can put their heads under the water.  Today they are trying on their new swim goggles!

Today was our last day in Smart Sports.  As the picture describes, it didn't end well.  The instructors wanted the kids to play a soccer game before they got their trophies and certificates.  Jakey and Kallee were on the same team.  The instructor told Jakey he could kick the ball off to start the game.  Well...another kid beat him to the kickoff and Jakey was very upset.  So Jakey and Ken are off to the side and Ken is trying to talk to Jakey.  I am with Kallee trying to get her interested in chasing after the ball and kicking it.  The ball finally comes to us and I tell her to kick it.  She just looks at it.   Jakey gets back into the game with fire.  He is pushing his way to get to the ball so he can kick it and the instructors tell him to be gentle.  He gets mad again and starts crying to Ken.  The game ends, with no help from Kallee and Jakey.  They get their trophies and certificates and Jakey is crying the whole time.

Kallee and Jakey riding their bikes.  Jakey gets to ride his "Big Boy Thomas the Train" bike when he goes pooh on the potty.  Yes, he still will not pooh in the potty on a regular basis.

Introducing Jungle Bear and Ella (nothing will ever replace Ruff-Ruff for Kallee).
Happy Independence Day!  Justin, Ariel, Alora, & Mike have been staying with us the last couple of days.  The kids have had so much fun together and have become instant friends.  Today we all took the train (TRAX) to the Gateway and spoiled the kids at Build-a-Bear.
