The Sturgill Road: June 2013
http://www.sturgills.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. 1 John 4:7. Thursday, June 20, 2013. Biking at Burke Lake. On Monday, I took the kids to Burke Lake. This was Lydia's first time riding her bike around the lake. Wesley has been biking around the lake. For a while now. Lydia did great (except for that time she was looking at some boaters and hit a tree). The kids insisted on stopping and talking with this very nice fisherman. He was very patient with all their questions. Monday, June 17, 2013.

Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. 1 John 4:7. Wednesday, July 31, 2013. I was last there two years ago. And since then they took out the diving boards and that section of the pool and added two water slide. The kids enjoyed playing in the pool and going down the water slides. Josiah couldn't do the big slides because you have to be 42 inches for them. The kids really loved playing in the sand. Here is a picture of Ethan and Lydia. Saturday, July 27, 2013.

The Sturgill Road: Learning to Swim
http://www.sturgills.com/2013/07/learning-to-swim.html
Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. 1 John 4:7. Friday, July 12, 2013. Josiah recently started swimming with his face in the water with his backpack on so I decided to let him practice without his backpack. Now, he will often beg me, "Let me swim to the wall without my backpack.". He keeps getting better and better at swimming but most of the time, I keep his backpack on him to keep him safe. Ohmygosh, how did he get so grown? July 12, 2013 at 5:27 PM. View my complete profile.

Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. 1 John 4:7. Friday, July 5, 2013. Last night we continued our annual Fourth of July tradition. This was o ur fifth year celebrating. While the adults enjoyed delicious food and drinks, the kids ran around inside and outside of Michele's house. We had to make our kids sit down and eat dinner. There were 19 kids there last night (one was missing from the photo shoot). Michele once again bribed the kids with bomb pops. Looks like a great event!

http://teplinfamily.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 09, 2010. She is the newest addition to our family! The boys are thrilled. Matthew keeps on asking me when do we have to take her back home, in fear that she is not staying. When I remind him that she is not leaving, she is ours, and she will be for a long time (like when he goes to college), he gets that sparkle in his eyes all over again. He is in love with her! She is a big ball of fur. 1)"so mom, are we just driving to look or bring one home? 2) "are we there yet? 5) "are we there yet?

Brothers at their best: game gone bad
http://teplinfamily.blogspot.com/2010/01/game-gone-bad.html
Thursday, January 28, 2010. Playing Candy Land with my children brings back memories for me. I remember playing this with my grandparents and some how I would always win! Little did I know then that grandma would let me win, and grandpa would just love to see the excitement in my eyes when I reached the end, so he was secretly hiding the trick that he always just let me win. Tonight, our family game night went like this:. Sam: Okay, it's my turn first. Matthew: No, it's my turn. Mom: You can't do that be...
