Late night...

We had to make sure our Finnish friends get a chance to experience Carowinds!!!   Roller coasters, balloon rides, and flying gliders...  A highlight coming to Charlotte!   

Because everyone else left...  We rode the gold rusher 4 times in a row without even leaving our seats!!!  Whoo hoo!!!  

Anna, Tessa, Kaylea, and Anna with their matching bows!!!  So cute:)

Turning 12 means....

 Such an exciting event... and after watching Kaylea pick out matching earrings to go along with her outfits, it's Claudia's turn.   Look out...  She's sporting diamonds...  AND loves it!   

Beautiful girl...

Scotts new toy.  Daniel helping put on the brakes...  And then Daniel took it for the first test drive.  Ummmm, it might not be Scotts bike for long?!?!?!?

My view of my family in kindergarten!

I still remember picking out the "clothes" which came from the plentiful supply of old wallpaper books in our classroom...   I loved the bright colors to choose from.  My favorite is dads glasses and curly hair;).
