Topsail (5&6)

Cohen's sale went really well. He sold books he had written and things he drew and did decide to sell a beanie boo

(But changed which one). He opened at 7am :)

                 Some loyal shoppers 

Aunt Amy bought the book with ballerinas and Lena got the beanie boo. 

Caleb bought a book Cohen made, about brothers, who fight with light sabers.

                  Presley and Lena 

    Cohen and Presley at Presley's surprise party. {Cohen had a plan to throw Presley a "surprise party" one night because he thought she deserved it. He had her practice what to do, she wore his clothes, we served Oreos with toothpicks as candles and some chips}. It was the most random but sweet thing ever. Stay tuned for the video ;) 

Caleb ended up having a toe injury this week which limited his time in the ocean but he was a trooper and still enjoyed moments he couldn't go out :)

iPhone pics :)

Cohen's autobiography he wrote.

"Cohen live. He got born in a hospital". 

             We said bye to cousin Lena! 

One night we had a family over and I look outside and Presley and Lex are outside, shirtless, eating dessert. 

Presley has been practicing her name :)

She is ready for Junior Kindergarten!

She was so proud she wanted to take a picture. 

Our friend Daniel visited our pool with us. Caleb was excited he scored 2 freezie pops :)

Cohen's cup tower he made  

Cohen and Caleb loving on baby Everley one morning! 

Cohen's latest Lego creation. Jokers mansion.

788

Sweet Caleb has been asking to do track for some time and after a ton of research we found a way he could do it occasionally. 

He signed up as an "unattached runner" and ran at the local competition this past weekend. 

Best part about this is Caleb knew no one. Here he is waiting with his age group to run the 100 m dash. 

If you follow us on Instagram you saw this turned out :) if not, I'm trying to find out how to put the video on here since I'm doing now everything via phone. 

Or email me and I'll send you the video because it's that good :)

Silkie

Our next door neighbor and us got some new chickens! They are called "silkies".

     Cohen and his silkie, named "silkie"

Caleb and his named, Kyle Busch aka "creamy". 

And Presley just wants to love on her brothers chickens. She wasn't as interested. 

This breed of chickens is supposed to be extra friendly and more like pets. :)

Topsail (day 3&4)

Cohen took this of his Lego creation with sunset in background :) 

              And Presley got strep. 

Thankful for meds so she got on the mends :) 

A major highlight was visiting the sea turtle hospital. 

Here is "sweet pea" she was adopted by Caleb, Presley and Lena (thanks papa bill)! They contributed to her to help her in the hospital so she can hopefully be released soon. 

And Cohen. He wanted to adopt "Lennie". Lennie had blunt trauma to her head and is permantly blind. She was found by a fisherman, named lennie, hence her name. She will never be able to be released but Cohen chose to support her. 

 

Cohen filling out his paper work for "Lennie". And again thanks Papa Bill for helping them all adopt a turtle. 

They left with a certificate and picture of their turtle. 

                 Back on the beach. 

We face timed daddy. A lot. 

Out for sea food for lunch :) all our meals we cool at the house so it was nice to enjoy some local sea food! 

                       "slush" joined 

       The girls during rest time. They are very cute together!

Cohen continued writing his books. He's an author now and enjoys writing books. And selling them. 

Caleb decided he could color pictures and sell them. :)

Cohen's sale. He set this up, he wrote books, he made pictures and he even attempted to sell a beanie boo but changed his mind. He will do anything to work for money (usually to buy more beanie boos). 

Topsail Island (Days 1&2)

              Our beachfront view :) 

Thank you Grammy and Papa Bill for this family beach trip! 

Cohen brought all 24 beanie boos. Here are his two favorite he set up also to see the view ;) 

Our FAVORITE time to be on the beach is sunrise! Beautiful, breathtaking, thank you, Lord! 

                  Caleb and Grams! 

Bed by 7, up by 6 in time to ride the waves on the beach, alone while watching the sun rise again :) glad we did this because 1 hour later it rained! 

The boys are old enough now to really appreciate the boogie boards! 

And without fail, one Harris went down. Caleb had been pretty sick before we left so now it's Presley.
