New Rooms and Kite Flying (aka lots of pictures!)

Okay, so they don't have new rooms, but all of our children have new things to hold their mattresses, and the Twiggs also got some help in the organization area too!  I got a great deal on the Twiggs' new bedroom furniture by shopping online.  They are from Wal-Mart, but we saved more than $30 by purchasing online, even though they were available in the store.  (And, shipping to the store was free!)  Pearl's loft (also from Wal-Mart) was also a great deal!

This was her big reward for completing her Summer Bridge Book.  
She did a great job, and loves her new space.

Miles' bed and organizer: Toy Story!

On Sunday afternoon, we decided to go kite flying, as it was rather windy.  Gavin has a pretty large kite and a smaller one.   The kids all got to help fly the little one and then we played on the nearby school's playground equipment.

I was just coming to say that Macey's dress is so cute and I see that your sister beat me to it. :) Their new beds look like a lot of fun! :)

Thanks, ladies! It was a garage sale find from small-town Iowa. There's a cute jean jacket that goes with it, too!
