MESSY KIDS

So you know those lovely curses you mother puts on you that you will someday have kids as bad as you were? Well it happens... The other day I found my kids in the other room playing so contently with the flour and sugar, needless to say it was everywhere. My mom likes to tell the story of how Kevin and I did the exact same thing when we were little. She says she cleaned flour out of my bedroom for years. I got my kids just as they were getting a cup of water to add to the mess. It was pretty hard for me to wash the flour out of their hair so I can only imagine how hard it would have been to clean wet flour out of the carpet. When I thought I had most of the mess cleaned up Ifound That somebody had driven a tractor on Dallens little head, guess they did't want him to feel left out.






Thats not the only mess that my little troublemakers have made lately. I also found them finger painting the bathroom with Selsen blue.

Kitchen and kids rooms

Linzi's room, i made these cute letters and you can see whats left

kitchen is so big it needs 2 pics.


My new dining table is so nice, that table cloth drownd my other table you can see it doesn't even cover my new one and the new one has 2 more leafs i can put in.

My New House

I love my new house! I have lots of room, and the kids have lots of room. I am not an interior decorator and my other house was too small for much decorating so it is not all dolled up yet but give me a few years and we will see what it looks like. Today i took pics because I have had complaints, so here it is nice and drity...

One last post for today. House

I got the call today that my house should be done next weekend! Here are some pics, but I need to get some new ones now that the outside is done.






Last week I was in the house showing Vicki the cabinets and Linzi and Morgan had disappeared. When I found them once again they were naked in my giant bath tub, pretending to take a bath. They are a funny pair.

Summer fun

Sorry there are going to be lots of pics of my cute kids playing in the water. They are so cute. It is fun to go outside and find them naked, I just laugh at those crazy kids.

Need a floaty?

Stuck in the bucket.


Muddy bottoms and heads


Linzi loved swiming up at Hiko springs, she wasn't afaid at all.


Grandmas big bowls make great pools for little kids!

July 5th

It was a great weekend because we were able to bless Dallen, and enjoy having Jen and Sterling visit. We guilted them into coming because thats is were we got Dallens middle name. I think they had fun although Sterling hurt his knee when playing basketball. Emily and Chris came as well, and it was fun to see them again. Thanks to all those that came to help with the blessing.

4th of July

We had a wonderful forth of July this year thanks to great friends and family.

These cute kids were patiently waiting for the parade to start. The kids loved it but I think Linzi had the most fun picking up candy. She would run down the road pick up arm fulls of candy and run back to the car with only half of what she started with. The other funny part is that her pants wouldn't stay on her bottom so she had plummers crack supper bad.

This is Linzi running back to the car with her candy you can see how excited she was.




Everyone waiting for the fireworks. I found out that Morgan loves Watermelon, he eats it all even the green part. He had peice after peice, so the next day we enjoyed diapers full of watermelon seeds.


We played with sparklers and enjoyed the fireworks. It was a wonderful evening.
