Swimming












Today we went to my good friend Julie's house to go swimming. We have so much fun when we go to her house. We appreciate her generosity. The girls' had friends to play with and so did mommy! It was a perfect day to sunbathe and hang out. The kids like to jump off the diving board and the side of the pool. Today they did some sunbathing it was pretty cute. Of course Molly and her friend Connor were being silly and wouldn't let me get a good picture! Ornery little stinkers. A good time was had by all!

Shark Attack!!






Ari found the shark goggles and fins in the bathroom. Of course she had to put them on! My oldest Caleb had them when he was little and passed them on to his sisters'. Doesn't she look frightening?

Baby Ari????






My youngest daughter Ari is so silly. She brought down her baby doll cradle to use with her dolls or so I thought. I went about my business doing stuff around the house and happened to look at Ari. She was in the cradle!!! So of course I had to go get the camera. My kids are so much fun. I love them a lot!!!

supper with the peterson's






This past weekend we had the peterson's over. We had a really great time. We even attempted to put Mento's in pop. We were trying to be cheap so we only bought one 2 liter of generic diet pop. We then proceeded to pour the pop into empty water bottles so we could do it several times. The men got a good laugh at our attempt. My husband said we could just watch other people do this on youtube. They are just jealous that we thought of it. We will try to do it again!!

Well, we have an actress!!! Molly is very excited to be apart of Charlotte's Web. She will play the part of a cute little lamb. She has already started the rehearsals. I think it will be a really cute musical. I'm very proud of my daughter.

Future actress......maybe?

Today Molly conquered a fear of hers. She auditioned for Charlotte's Web for the Nazarene Community theatre. She had to sing a song that she had prepared. She chose a Mark Schultz song... Letters from War. She was very nervous about singing by herself in front of people. I think she did a great job. I'm a little biased though! Until next time.

Future mower





After all the rain we have had lately Charlie needed to mow. So, Molly said I want to mow. Daddy says ok if you can mow the whole yard I will give you $5.00. Of course Molly was way excited until she started mowing. She got a little frustrated because she couldn't make a straight line. Daddy had to help her a little bit. She did a good job. I think she wants to do it again but it has been a little tall.

Play Ball





Well we are into June and we are doing something the Bailey's have never done. The girls' are playing tball and softball. They are playing with God's little league. Which is associated with the Galesburg Fellowship of Area Churches. It is a non-competitive league where they don't keep score and they just have fun. They both really enjoy playing. We had to purchase pink gloves of course. Ari is on the orange team with a couple of her friends Matthew and Jacob Potter. The first night she was a little apprehensive but was fine when she saw her friends. Molly is on the blue team and knows a couple of kids from school. She does a good job at catching and hitting. I believe it is a good experience for both of them.

Judy's Dance Review








At the end of May Ariann was involved in the review for Judy's dance. She has been doing gymnastics for the past few years. She really likes it and is not afraid to try anything which makes mommy a little nervous at times. I think she has a knack for gymnastics.

Judy's Dance Review





Both the girls' have been taking lessons from Judy's dance studio for a couple of years. Molly has tried gymnastics and liked it. Now she is in ballet and really liked it in the fall she is going to try jazz. I think her niche is dance. I think she is very graceful and beautiful.
