Cherry pickin' and summer life!

This summer we learned how to make Tootsie rolls!!!  They are TO DIE FOR!!
We have done different flavors, like almond, plain chocolate and we just did Orange YUMM!!  They are so good!!
Sometimes I work out at the church in the morning and when I come home this is what I find!!! All hanging out on my bed watching T.V.! Funny kids!
We went over to Van Zwols to pick some Cherries!!
She made them picking aprons and we picked a bunch of cherries!!
Kaliah did them for a little bit, but then her allergies started acting up and so she had to go back inside :-(
It was hot, but the breeze helped keep us cool! Mylee was having fun going tree to tree picking a few here and there.
All their friends out pickin' cherries!
 
Mykay was a little cherry pickin' machine! He would not leave a branch until it was COMPLETELY picked! Determined little guy! 
Kenna liked climbing the trees and picked quite a few cherries! 
Saileen was up in the trees most of the time and practically had to be drug out of the trees because she wanted to pick and pick and pick! 
They also have some wild turkey's the live near their house. they were fun to watch them and all the little turkey's run around!
And this is what your hands look like after pitting and freezing 5 gallons of cherries!  It took 4 of us 4 hours to pit them all!!
We were painting doll outfits on barbie one day and Kenna kicked the RED nail polish onto the carpet!!!  I panicked!!!!  I thought there would be NO WAY to get it out!  After a whole can of hairspray and 32 ounces of alcohol, 3 rags, and a towel that had to be thrown away, and 2 hours of scrubbing until I couldn't even move I finally got it out! I was sure we were going to have to replace the carpet. It seriously looked like someone died in there with all the red splattered all over the carpet!  This is what the after looked like! Disaster averted!
 
His latest ninja face....don't ask me why, but apparently ninjas have to make this face.
This....girls....hair!!  Wow, she must have had some dream!!
Mykay trying to ride the motorcycle video game at the Orthodontist...like a boss!
Or sitting in a window watching a bird! He is growing up so fast :-(
I am going to miss him being my little boy!
