Freezing our Buns off at the Beach

Yes we went to the beach and froze our buns off, But it was fun and the kids got soaked playing in the water. They love it even if they were turning blue. There was frost on the ground this morning , but we went anyway. Sand is sand, and water is water regardless the temperature.

Do You Think Grandpa looks cold?????? He didn't know I was taking this picture, I zoomed, hee hee.

Congrats to Kassie, our baby sister, who found out she is having a boy for her first. I bet Shad is thrilled. What a new and exciting time for your family. We are so happy for You. When Are you going to join the blog world???????? You need to show off some of your photography. I would love to see some.

Easter Eggs

So Diane and Helen dyed Easter eggs with the kids. Funny enough, we haven't done it for a few years, so they thought it was the best thing ever (I have been a slacker in years past). So I have a question. . . "Where did the Easter Bunny come from?" How did we get a Bunny from the Atonement? Just wondering, if anyone has the answer I will listen.

We have early church so we let the Easter bunny come Saturday morning, that was the greatest thing ever. I am so glad we didn't do it before church.

He begged I Delivered

Much to the chagrin of My Husband when Mckay threw a fit to wear Sid's dress. . . I let him. Looks lovely doesn't he?

How Do You Know. . .??

When a redneck has a DUI?

Meridee thanks for the follow up story. I Love it!! This is the perfect followup to our Roping a deer story. Definately gotta love venison to get to this point. Speaking of Love of Venison. . .

I was driving with my nephew and he was asked his favorite food. I was expecting "pizza", but got "definately elk venison". There's a new one for you. His favorite wii game, Cabella's of course. He is so cute with his love of camo. Gotta love it.

Yeah for Teachers

Parent teacher conference was last night and I looooove ethan's teacher. She is amazing. I will forever compare every teacher to Mrs. Bond. Everyone here has warned me how horrible public school is (there are many private schoolers around). I have to say after Ethan's kindergarten experience I would have agreed. But Mrs. Bond has redeemed my faith in public school. She knows how to work with kids and get them somewhere. So today I guess is my Yeah for Teachers!!! Or better yet "yeah for teachers that CARE!!!" Its a big job, and they do a fabulous job. Thankyou!

Beautiful

Hayden has made everyone very aware today that Aunt Helen is "Very Beautiful"
Such a sweet boy.

The B word

And I don't mean buddy#$%^&*
Yah, let's chalk it up to a first in motherhood. Some neighborhood boys were using some choice words while ethan was around. Sooooo he decided to try the b word out. Unfortunate or should I say lucky for him I was in earshot. He hadn't the slightest clue what it meant, but it definately threw me for a loop. We had a long discussion about why we don't use swear words. These are the days I am glad I am able to stay at home with my kids. Who would have taught him or caught him should I not have been around. This is the reason I prefer kids to come over to play at our house even though my house gets trashed.
