These next few pictures were of me trying to get a picture of Carolina's super cute smile. They are pretty funny. I love her expressions and I'm sad I didn't get more pictures of the week with everyone.
Ellie doesn't have school on Fridays so after we dropped off Jackson at school and made a quick trip to Wal-Mart, we stopped by my parents to pick up Carson and Bella and bring them back to our house to play for a little bit. We did some bubbles, sidewalk chalk and played on the swingset for a bit before we headed inside to play for awhile. At one point I was in our closet doing some ironing and they all decided they wanted to join me. There is not a single toy in our closet but toys all around the house and they wanted to hang out in the closet.
My dad wanted Amanda and Sara to bring the kids by his office so he could show them off to everyone. This was just kind of a funny sight as they were getting ready to go (look how blond Brady's hair looks). They all (Amanda and her 3 kids and Sara and her 2 kids) squeezed into Sara's car because it was the only one available. I imagine it was quite a sight. Thank goodness my dad's office isn't far away at all. 
Jackson and Ellie went out to the ranch on Saturday with Andrew. He sometimes sends me pictures throughout the morning to show me what they are up to. Here is Ellie riding her horse with the kids' new saddle. Jackson actually rode a horse by himself down to a pasture. He was very proud of himself, but I was a little nervous. 
Matthew also took Jackson, Ellie and Ashlyn on a little 4-wheeler ride. It was a good morning out at the ranch.
Today we went to church and then headed over to my parents' to swim. Our swimming days are numbered so we wanted to get a little more in. The Vincent's joined us but I didn't let the kids know they were coming so Jackson was very excited when he saw Zach show up.Here is a picture Andrew took of Lincoln this evening. Andrew went out after some Mountain Dew for a dessert I was making for dinner (check out the Apple Dumplings on Pioneer Woman-yum) and he thought it would be funny to send me this pic.
Well now it is time to get ready for another school week-our first full one. I just hope everyone makes it through without getting too cranky.
