OYE!

Our family in front of a concrete truck made out of Legos.
You know sometimes when your life is so busy and you forget about the little mundane things to survive life?...oops! I forgot about blogging the random hum dums of the Wear Family. So a quick-end-of-the-summer catch up. We took a trip to Texas for the Wear Family reunion. There we met up with a few 'old' friends and took in some new sites. The kids absolutely loved LEGOLAND. If you EVER get the chance to see one--I highly recommend it!! Essentially, Dallas/Ft Worth Landmarks are replicated using Legos and the detail is absolutely amazing!


Kolson on the little motorcycle
Karis and Kinlee riding the motorcycle made of Legos!
Here's the Ballpark at Arlington--AmeriQuest Field?? --made completely out of Legos and Lego men
Skyscraper complete with the window washers.
I wonder what kind of degree you have to have to play with Legos everyday for your job?






































Kolson figured out walking...2 weeks later than the girls but we are once again chasing a little one who lacks the knowledge and foresight to recognize danger. Needless to say, we have had a slight increase in our demands for bandages and ice packs (or frozen vegetables) lol!

Kinlee turned two and she hit the 'terrible' twos...she really epitomizes the typical 2yr old attitude some days and makes mom wonder why we decided to keep having kids after Karis :) Nah, there are some pretty bad days but there are waaaaaay more good days. Kinlee is a very loving, little, big sister. She makes sure to tattle on Karis and reminds mom that 'Kolson wants some milk' everytime he cries :D I love seeing what she has been working on in her brain. She continues to surprise me with the things she knows. She counts to 8 or 9 (still working on getting 1 in there sometimes), knows most of her colors, and she knows the letter O by sight. Hey, ya gotta start somewhere!

Karis has officially started school and on the 4K orientation day, she was the ONLY kid on her bus...luckily she knew the busdriver so she wasn't apprehensive much. She did wantt o know why I wasn't going to ride the bus with her. When she started school, she didn't cry at all! The same cannot be said for Mom and Grandma! Both were a little a misty-eyed. Funny how fast that time goes!

Then Mom thought she should play some softball during the Prentice Progress Days Softball Tournament...not such a great idea when you haven't actually played since high school. I'm not in shape AT ALL! and I also discovered that I'm not as quick on my feet as I used to be...and the recovering time is longer...who'd have thunk it? My sister Taylor went on to take the Miss Prentice title--she'll now be riding in every parade in the area until the next labor day festivities!

So that brings you up to date in a nutshell! and I'll try to get back into blogging more often so that you don't have to read a novella eveytime I do update :D God's Blessings!!
