Yes, this time of year is full of birthdays for us! Caleb celebrated his 6th birthday in February and Caden’s 5th is right around the corner. This year we decided to have a joint party for them both. We had some friends and cousins join us at JumpZone for the party and it was great! Here are some pics from the party.

Cheeeessee!

I can walk...watch me go.

What's Up Slick? Caleb dressed for 50's Day

These Boots Are Made for Walkin'

Zoe Grace loves shoes…she’s starting young. One day it was extremely quiet and that usually means trouble, because she is normally right behind me. I go to find her in my closet…trying on my shoes.

She's Climbing...Oh My!

On Demand--Serious/Mean Look

Zoe Grace’s personality is really starting to shine…she loves to make this face and then follow it up with a huge laugh and smile. She thinks she is funny…and I think so too!

Look, no training wheels!

Good intentions…I really do have intentions of getting to this blog, but some how time just flies by with no new posts. Wow, how do I catch up all the way from August? I can’t so, I’ll just start with what’s going on now.

First Day of School

Today marks a momentous occasion in the McKinion household…our first born, Caleb, starts kindergarten. Where has the time gone??? At times it just doesn’t seem possible that he’s old enough for that! He will be in Mrs. Galloway’s class at Hilltop Christian School. Pray for Mrs. Galloway…she is a brand new teacher fresh out of college, but seems very excited to have these precious young souls under her tutelage. Here’s some pictures of Caleb before he headed off to school.

Update

Sorry for the sabbatical in posting updates…life has been a bit busy lately. Randy finished up the semester, Caleb & Caden finished preschool (Caleb graduated and is now ready for Kindergarten!) and Zoe Grace is growing like a cute butterbean! She will be 4 months old next week. We just had her picture taken for the first time last week. Here are a few of the fun ones!
