Burying the trampoline

So Kwinton decided that this year was the year to get the kids a trampoline. I was a bit hesitant at first because I have never had a trampoline, but he had one growing up and insisted that they are not that dangerous. So we agreed that we would get a trampoline only if we burried it. It was quite a process to get the trampoline in the ground, which ended with a GIANT mountain of dirt in my back yard for three weeks. But in the end I am glad that we did it. The kids are loving it and I feel that they are at least a little safer when they are out there. Enjoy the pictures!!

They had to come through the fence.

What I like to call. DIRT MOUNTAIN!! Although, I think it was more like boulders and grass and dirt mountain.

Gabe's Field Trip






Last week was Gabe's last week of Kindergarten, I cannot believe I have a child that is going into first grade. He has had a so much fun in his class this year. I went with his class on a field trip to Wheeler Farm, where we basically just froze our butts off. But it was lots of fun. Here are some pictures.


Please note: The children were on the table because the Geese were trying to eat there lunches. Not because they weren't being properly supervised.

Welcome to Franc!!

So I've got a computer, I've got caller ID, I've got the internet, I've even got the facebook thing down I guess the next thing to do is start a blog right. With a little help from my sister (did I say a little, probably a lot) I am now going to start "Blogging". I actually read quite a few blogs and I absolutley love them. I love being able to keep up with peoples families and see pictures of  people I dont get to see much. So to anyone who will be so kind as to follow my families blog WELCOME TO FRANC!!!!!

We are the Franc Family!! Thats (france not frank). Why? I dont know, you'll get used to it. I am Nikki married to Kwinton. We have three sweet kids Gabriel 6, Cali 4, and Cole 22 months. Pictures to come soon (I will need Angie for that). Kwinton is a Press Operator which is just fancy talk for a Box Maker, but its a good job and it pays the bills, he also works part time as a Security Guard for the FAA. I know scary right, Kwinton with a gun. I work part time at the Childrens Place, which really just pays for the clothes I buy there for the kids, and gets me out once or twice a week. But I love it! Our kids are awesome. They are funny, sweet and smart ( I know, I know "mother talking"). But its true. I guess thats about it for a start. Much more to come!!
