Nick

Nick is my middle child. He is such a loving, caring person. I can not believe that he is starting Kindergarden in just a few weeks. He has grown up so fast! He is adventurous, sporty, and so very smart. He loves to play soccer, tball, and basketball. He wants to play every sport there is. too bad there is not enough time to do it all. I am so proud of Nick, he has become such a wonderful little guy! I am so excited to watch him learn and make new friends this year! Can't wait to see what is in store for my special little guy!

Bath Time

Mason loves the bath tub!! He always wants bath tablets in to change the color of the water. Then of course you have to turn the jets on and add bubbles..and he is in heaven! He is so funny to watch. He splishes and splahes all over the place, we have a big tub so to him it is a super warm swimming pool! I just wish the tub was big enough for me to swim in!! The joys of being a kid!!

Katie and her baby

My friend and neighbor Christy finally had her baby. These pictures were taken about a week before baby Robby made his entrance. Katie is really into baby dolls right now, and what better practice to take care of her little baby brother? Katie was so sweet to watch with her little baby. She was taking such good care of him! Congratulations again Christy!!

more soccer

Mason absolutely loves soccer! Which Scott and I are super happy, sice we coach Nick also! It is a chance for Mason to get out of the house and play with other kids his age, and to start developing gross motor skills! This kid can really dribble the ball across the field......he is pretty amazing!

Nanny and Poppy

Mason does not get to see his Nanny and Poppy very often at all, so when they do happen to drop by for a few hours he takes advantage of it! You can see that they are both entertained here! Mason loves his Poppy and always asks about him and wants to call him. Too bad they live 6 hours away and we don't get to visit often. Mason is the last little boy to carry on the Vines name, so he is extra special!!

Swimming at Nana and Papa's

My parents have a super nice in ground pool. They put it in when Alex was a baby, so all of the boys have been able to enjoy it. It is heated also, so it does not have to be warm outside at all to go swimming! Alex and Nick love to swim!! They are learning to dive and do flips now so they are always wanting to go and swim! Mason is not the swimmer yet that his brothers are. He likes to walk around and throw whatever he can into the pool! So you better keep your shoes on the other side of the fence!! We are lucky to have a pool top swim in any time we want!!

7/15/09 Lightning

My husband loves storms and lightning...until they get to close and then heads inside! We sat out on the back porch for at least an hour watching the lightning in the sky! I was able to get a couple pics of it!
