Kamryn raked up a pitiful pile of leaves and Gabby jumped right in.

Braces

The day finally arrived when Kaylee got her braces. She has patiently waited for this day to come. Here is a before and after shot of her. I don't think I've ever seen anyone this excited to have braces on.

Polly's B-day

35! I guess I am officially middle aged :( Matt took me out to lunch with Gabby at my favorite Thai restaraunt. Nanna had cake and icecream at her house. I went to a home show with Nanna and Jen and my good friends at work celebrated with cheesecake. I am glad I have great friends and family to celebrate with.

First Day of School

It is time for back to school! Kaylee is now a big 8th grader. Kamryn rules the school in 5th and Sydney is having fun in 2nd grade. It has been a while since I have updated my blog and summer is definitely over. So here is the start of Fall with the Judds.

Corolla, NC

We spent the last week at Corolla Beach, North Carolina. It was a wonderful vacation, a beautiful beach and perfect company. We were the guest of my sister Beth and her family. We got a lot of wave and rays and came home content and sun-tanned.

Best Buddies

I am so glad that our Sydney has a best friend that is her cousin. They were born a month apart and just can't seem to get enough of each other. We are still trying to talk Katie and Gabby into the same kind of friendship.

Crazy girls

What a crazy bunch of girls we have.

Sunset

Dusk at the beach is my favorite time of the day. The hot sun goes down the breeze blows and the little kids fall asleep.

The Pool.

The pool is always a big part of the beach trip. It is not like we don't have a pool at home. Those kids could and did stay in the pool all day.

Pontoon on the Sound

We rented a pontoon boat for a couple of hours on the Sound. Of course everyone had to have a turn driving. Matt and the girls even got and and swam. Yuck!
