Summer is Finally Here!

Hey everyone, Salem finally saw some summer weather. It was 97 degrees today, and the kids enjoyed the new slip 'n' slide we got at a garage sale.

Paige takes a spin on the slip 'n' slide


Michael isn't so sure this is a good idea

Snake Charmers and Loose Teeth

Here is Benjamin holding one of his new found friends. It tried to bite him several times in the face but couldn't open its mouth wide enough. Ben thought it was pretty fun. Watch out mother nature, Ben and Paige are on your trail!


Benjamin also lost his first tooth last week the old fashioned way. HeeHee. Dad thought it was fun anyways. For $3, Dad thinks he got his money's worth.






Graduation! Finally!

On May 11, 2008 Ron finally graduated from Law school! Whew. Michael wasn't that impressed. He kept trying to take daddy's hat off. Daddy was all for it since the only thing missing from his costume was the clown nose.
