The Loom at the Highland Games

The kids really loved the loom at the Highland games. The girls would like a small one for Christmas and Aaron just thought the way it worked was fascinating.

A creek walk during the summer

One day during the summer we were driving around and decided to go to the little park by Costco. Never thought much of it, so we have never been there before. We figured it was lame because of the location. Well, were we wrong!!! it has an awesome creek and walking trails and even a playground. The kids had so much fun!
The picture on the play set is of the kids putting on a show for us that they rehearsed and performed.

The last one is the cool fish they caught!! yeah, it's plastic....so??


Enjoy the cuteness!

I am learning to upload video from my phone....let's see what happens

Katie's version of Heaven

Setting: John and Katie are sitting on the couch talking about what happens when we die.


John: Well, we go to Heaven. Do you know what that would be like?
Katie: No
John: It will be Paradise. Do you know what that means?
Katie: No
John: It will be like the best place you have ever been!
Katie: Oh, I get it! Like the Mall!



Yeah, we are in soooo much trouble!

"You think that's gross? Well, look at THIS!"

Last Friday Andrew caught Sydney's fingers in her closet door. It was pretty bad, lots of blood and all that. It never stopped her from sucking on her fingers though. I guess this is why we didn't notice how bad it was. Today, we realize that her entire nail was falling off, only holding on by the tiniest thread. I didn't dare try to pull it off though it fear that it would bleed again.

She kept messing with it all day. Pulling it back, showing everyone, trying to get everyone to kiss it.

Well.. the girls were really getting grossed out, and I was tired of hearing them squeal(like little girls)So finally I say "You think that's gross? Well, look at THIS!"
and I show them the pictures of my poor nephew's burnt hand.

be careful, it's really gross....

And yes, they stopped complaining about the fingernail. (was that mean?)

My phone is working just fine!! I can't believe it! I did however take the time to use the backup assistant so that if that ever happens again I will not lose any information off the phone!! She is SOOO lucky!!!!!
