Summer Has Just Begun

After asking the kids several times what they wanted to do this summer, creating a blog was on the list every time. So, here we go. We will do our best to keep family and friends updated on what is going in the Gambles family. I told the kids that I would set it up and show them how to do it but that they are the ones who will be adding the new postings. It should be interesting to see what they want to share with you(truthfully I am a little worried).

Nykell has started her first babysitting job for a lady in our ward and really enjoys it. She has a two year old boy named Taylor (he is very cute). She likes earning her own money and thinks that she is saving up to buy herself a Wii or a laptop. We'll see how that goes. Nykell had a great fifth grade year. One of the last days of school they had a field day where she and her partner Kacie won first place in the three-legged race and her 4x4 team got second. Next year she will be going to Jerome middle school (scary). She is growing up sooo fast.

Katie has been playing with friends and reading a lot. I think she misses school already. She had a great first grade year (after we got rid of the ulcers and gave many needed pep talks). Everyday she plays school and makes out an agenda for her students. She will make a great teacher some day. I think that her favorite thing about being home is asking if we can go to McDonalds for lunch. They have been out of school for a week and she has asked to eat there about seven times (no lie). She is quite the girl.

Jaydon is finally walking and enjoys going from room to room as well as in circles (we don't know why). He is loving having the girls home during the day. He loves to play with them and can get them to do just about anything for him. Right now he is obsessed with going outside. He will stand at the door and cry until someone takes him out. A few of his favorite things are playing with the dog, eat dog food, walking into the street, and digging up flowers. He is such a boy.
