Our Nanny is Awesome!

Lilly playing with Ernie (Ms.Sarah's son) at Carowinds big wave pool. They go to Carowinds once a week for some good pool time and rides. Lilly is a little mermaid so she typically stays in the wave pool.
Here are Landen, Lilly, Melody (Ms.Sarah's daughter), Gabriel and Ernie at one of our local parks. Ms.Sarah took the children on a hike down a very long walking trail Landen wanted to complete the trail but after an hour it was time to rest up and head back to the car. This was one of our 100 degree days here.
Chuckie Cheese tunnel time. They usually go to Monkey Joes on Wednesdays but this week they chose Chuckie Cheese. This was perfect for these silly kiddos check out these cuties Lilly, Ernie and Landen. "We don't want to go home yet!"
This is the perfect swing for our laid back boy. Gabriel is the kind of boy who could just hang out in this swing all day long by himself enjoying all the nature that surrounds him.
Look at this muscle man he is our gymnast in the family. Landen is quite talented when it comes to anything that requires upper body strength.
We have been so blessed this summer to have the best Nanny ever. She comes to our house every day to watch the children while we are at work. She is absolutely wonderful and the children adore her. She makes sure that they do their chores, have school time for 30 minutes each day, outdoor play time, indoor play time, etc. She works on their social skills and best of all she has two children for our children to play with.

I never have to worry about if the children are alright or if my house is going to be a wreck when I get home. Most times it is even cleaner when I get home and most importantly she works with their behavior same as Brian and I do. We have standards in our home and we expect our children to obey what the Lord requires of them. Our Nanny is awesome at pointing them in the right direction and she is super at praising all of their good behavior.

We love you Ms.Sarah!

Here are some pics of some of their excursions with Ms. Sarah and her two sweet children.
