When we first started Goat Milk Stuff and needed a “tag line”, Jim came up with: “Work Hard. Get Dirty. Use Good Soap.TM“ Sometimes I think our family tag line should be: Work Hard. Play Hard. Sleep Hard. You may remember this blog post about the results of Jade playing hard at Disney. And then […]
I have a few random photos leftover from the air show, so I thought I’d post them all here. Hewitt and me admiring the corvettes: Greyden all scrunched into the stroller and watching the airplanes: Emery getting a video: Colter: Indigo and Grandma: Grandma watching the planes: Me and my baby brother: Hewitt resting in […]
We have a friend who flew the KC-10 for the Air Force. So we decided to go and check it out. First, we all crammed into the cockpit: Then we each got to be the pilot: The children are all now talking about becoming pilots. I told them they were going to have to […]
We were at the air show and Indigo was minding her own business: All of a sudden her little cousin got ahold of a ball and decided that Indigo was a good target: Look at that evil grin on his face as he decides to go for another shot: Fortunately Brett scooped him up […]
Once we had base camp set up, it was time to go check out the air show stuff. So off we headed: And we found the jumpy things: It was a lot of fun until Indigo got hurt: So we gathered everyone together: And walked over to the planes: First we walked through […]
In the beginning, there was just one: Then, after many years of waiting, there were finally two: Shortly after that, there were three: And the girly circle is complete.
The girls were in need of some Daddy Time. So Jim gave Jade her first set of braids: So then of course Indigo needed her hair braided too: He eventually had them both braided and looking beautiful: Then they got to check out themselves in the mirror in their room: He’s a VERY good Daddy! […]
One of the best parts of our vacation was the fact that the children got to spend so much time with their cousins. Since we’re the only part of our family living in Indiana, cousin time is very precious. I wish I had taken more photos of them together, but here are a couple of […]
Since it was against the law to do big fireworks at the beach, Aunt Heather got all the kids sparklers for Jade’s Birthday the Fourth of July. Jim lined all the children up youngest to oldest to hand out the sparklers: Indigo was really excited about it: The children think this is a really cool […]
If Indigo is the princess of the ocean, then Brett is the Queen. She was just as much a fanatic with the water as Indigo: I loved watching the two of them enjoy it together: Brett waited so long to have a sister, and the two of them are really close. Normally when they do […]
Indigo absolutely fell in love with the ocean and riding waves: I can just see her asking for a surfboard for her birthday! Of course, she is kind of lazy. She figured out that if she just hangs out in the shallows, eventually a wave will come and give her a ride without her […]
Yesterday, Jim was pushing us to finish our work early so we could have a family surprise. What was our surprise? The Charlestown Hot Air Balloon Glow. It was a hot, muggy evening with no breeze. (On a side note, we used our bug off lotion stick b/c the bugs were awful and they worked […]
Our last night at Disney, we had dinner at the Liberty Tree Tavern. They normally don’t have character dining, but since the Crystal Palace is being renovated, they moved the characters to the Liberty Tree. So we got to share our dinner with some good friends: Mom and Dad’s favorite part was that the […]
Indigo and Jade decided they wanted to be princesses today: But then it was time for lunch and my messy eaters didn’t want to stop being princesses. So Mommy had to come up with a creative solution. Enter Daddy t-shirts: But the funniest part of the day was […]
Our absolute favorite restaurant of our entire Disney vacation (and this is unanimous) was: It had the most amazing family buffet you can imagine. We didn’t take pictures of the food (because we were too busy eating it), but they brought around huge skewers of the tenderest food ever. My mouth is watering just […]
