She is fire burning, fire burning on the dance floor...

...at least on Thursday night I am! :0) Life is getting crazy around here! The girls are back in school and that means my work has doubled! It is two homework help and checks, reading logs (two books a day each), school volunteer hours, ballet classes, soccer practices on different days and times, play group and music time for Isaac, Visiting teaching, preparing and teaching my class every Sunday, taking care of the missionaries and their meal calendar, visiting members and investigators with them for my calling, etc...I totally feel overwhelmed lately but I have fun! I also signed up for my dance lessons and yoga again. I complain but to tell you the truth I really love being busy! LOL
I am really excited this month because my Mom and David's parents got their tickets to come and visit us again. My mom will be with us for a month while Dad Barlow is staying for 10 days and Mom Barlow is staying over two weeks. She will watch the kids so that David and I can go on our trip to Asia! I am so excited because they will all be here for Belle's baptism! I can't wait to see them again...
Life is just great and here are some pics to prove it! :0)

First Day at school 07/31!

Hannah is starting kindergarten

Belle is going to 3rd grade! The Roxy bag is from Belle's request because "backpacks are for little girls" and she is a young women! :0)

Here is the first day with uniforms, I don't like uniforms but sometimes it is way easier...

They wanted me to show you the back of it because it is prettier...in the girls own words! :0) (Ewa Beach is the name of our city)

And there they go...

At Dmitri's bday party, Dimitri is Isaac's friend from Church...

She loves pizza just like her mom! :0)

Trying to destroy his friend's cake!

He always demands a fork! :0)

Sisters that swim together are cute!



They are just to cute! Dmitri and Isaac...

Enjoying a "Koolaid" at the park...who didn't grow up with Koolaid??

Slip and slide at the park at Aspen's bday party...yep we have bday parties all the time! :0)







Isaac is always the center of all the attention with the neighbors!

He is really a boy who loves balls! And he can say the word too! And as always he left his pants on the grass:0)

Back to ballet, Belle is in ballet 3 and Hannah ballet 1

Being silly as always!

While I take the girls to ballet, Ike and I go to tots and books at the library in Aiea.



Girl's night out! These girls are a lot of fun!

Another girl's night out to learn how to make "lumpias", you always have to learn with the best! Here I am with the girls from the Philippines, I LOVE lumpias!

Closing the lumpias...

The best of all is when you can eat it :0)

We always have so much to talk about that the other night I was there I came home at 2am! :0)

At the Ward Conference Dinner!

After you eat you have to help to clean and put the chairs away! :0)

Date nights are always fun!
