They were great cheerleaders. toot....toot..toot Sorry, just a little excited.

Tear drops, running down my cheeks...

I just found out that they are no longer doing baptisms in the ocean in Hawaii. I am very sad, as we were planning on going there next June for Katie's baptism. I will have to look into it more, but as for right now, I am sad.

The teacher in me........

It drives me crazy that somethings are not capitalized on the blog...but I don't have the time to figure it out and change it. Someday we will do a blog makeover.

Saturday...a not so lazy day

Yesterday was our play day since Michael had the day off. So today was work on the house day. Michael left early, and I got things done around the house, and then the kids and I headed down there. We had a little sprinkle today, so it wasn't too hot. So we were helping and I looked at the van, and the tire was completely flat. Now, the back tires have been in dire need of being replaced, but there were other more important priorities for the money. I was just praying that we wouldn't have a blow out and roll the van. Of all places to get a flat, I really couldn't have picked a better place. Mike was there, we had two cars and Mike was there...did I already say that? I am not sure, but I don't think I drove all the way from home with a flat, but you never know. After a while Mike wsa ready to take a break and go check out the IFA grand opening. Well, we got there, looked at the pig while Mike and the kids told me about how they are going to do 4-H (hooray) and then we walked ove to see the sheep...and they just happened to be having Mutton Busting right then. Jeffrey decided he wanted to do it. All the parents were smiling, bribing their kids to get on, the kids weren't too impressed. Something seemed wrong with that picture. But Jeff rode like a real cowboy...until the sheep sat down. It came out JUMPING ran to the end, and sat down. He came off smiling telling me how awesome he was. So cute. Now he tells me he is going tobuy a sheep and ride it all over the pasture. If he only had an endless supply of money. Then we went inside and they were having lunch. Seriously, did we score or what! After our IFA experiance, we went and put the donut on the van..the kids loved changing the tire. Now it will be like that until Dan's opens on Monday. Ahhh, fun little adventures.

Little Boys.....

Today Jeffrey asked me if I had seen any dump trucks for sale. I said ...No, why? He said... Because I really need to get one. He means a real dump truck. He has told me that that is what he is going to drive when he gets his drivers license. Wow, the girls will be chasing him. Can't you see him dragging Main in a dump truck. I love it!

This one I just love. Katie took it, and I had to crop out a naked Bana.
