Thats me!

Ha! I got on facebook and found that my best friend from way too long ago...her brother had posted this picture of Kammi and I. I haven't stopped laughing.

Whats on our heads?
A ball!

I'm the one on the left (if you couldn't tell)

It's so funny seeing old (and nerdy) pictures of myself ;-)

Happy Decade Day

Happy Decade Day Joely!

Can you believe my little girl is a double digit now???
Im beside myself!
Happy Birthday Joely, we love you!
And sorry I forgot birthday candles and you had to blow out the 'birthday match' ;-)

Miss P

Miss P has been cruising around...though not really crawling yet (I'm surprised) and last week she figured out how to sit up on her own. She is just growing up too fast!

St. Patricks day

Here were are St. Patrick's day projects. With the kids in Vista and wearing uniforms, we needed to do something for St. Patty's day. So we made little shamrocks for the kids to put on there uniforms....YES they are shamrocks. In the morning when the kids went to get dresses, Joel said "remember to put on your trees" What tree's? Those are shamrocks!!!!

bunkbed clubhouse

....a craft kids can help make? Boy oh boy did my kids have some grand ideas. I let them take the reins and they ran with it! They loved the felt clubhouses that people make to go over their card tables.... however, I didn't want a card table set up in the house all the time. So we made a compromise.

And the bunk bed club house was born



Enter through the 'hole' in the tree, which is made to be level with the bottom bunk.



Complete with a tree that has velcro for apples or flowers....(and for future banana's and letter's like the chicka chicka boom boom tree)



There is also a garden with pockets to hold carrots, beets and turnips.



Store your harvest from the garden or tree in the basket....or maybe you'll want to put flowers in the basket instead. (the basket is open to hold all sorts of goodies)




Holy Moly! I cant believe we got this done, we started in on TUESDAY!!! It's so AWESOME though! So next time anyone comes to my house with there kiddo's we may have something fun to do ;-) Seriously I do not recommend anyone make one of these in 4 days! However the plus side was that my house was only completely diasterous for 4 days ;-) And Kyler was so ready for it to be done, so 4 days was great for him! ;-) Let em just say if I get voted off next week, I may just cry! This project was way to involved to be voted off!!!!

so "HE" says....

Kyler says the darndest things sometimes. Here are some of the things I have heard just this week

When I made dinner the other night he responded "Oh that's yucky for me, it has bugs in it"

.....it wasnt that bad.

When I told him his middle name was named after his grandpa Foremaster, he said "Oh I really love him"

When we took Parlee to get her shots today, Taran was feeling sad for Parlee, but Kyler just got defensive and responded "Let's kill him"

....hmmm, wondering what the nurse was thinking then.

This reminds me the last time I took Parlee in to get shots and I had Kyler with me, he was NOT happy that someone was being mean to his sister, he told the nurse "You not hurt my sister" then when we left the room to go to the front desk to pay he took one more last ditch effort and ran back into the room where the nurse still was cleaning up and threated once again "You NOT hurt my sister"

I am guessing to sum things up, I make gross food (with bugs none the less), Kyler loves his grandpa (so good middle name choice, though he was surprised that his first name wasnt 'grandpa'). And what ever you do DONT mess with this boys sister, he may just KILL you!
