They like me!!!

I was still in bed when Eric said to me, "Go look at the table." I went and peeked into the kitchen and saw Sierra, Mason and Allie all eating cereal together. (They get everything out themselves and Sierra helps pour milk. What would we do without cereal!?!) Then I saw a note and flower on the table. My first thought was that it was from Eric, but it was not. It was from my kids who really like me...a lot!

Allie's first performance...

Allie and Elliette ready to perform.




You just have to love little girls doing "ballet." Does it not make you smile or laugh? Allie really did enjoy it, our kids are just so serious in public. It's all about the ballet clothes of course, dancing comes second.

Just a few tid bits...

Garrett is learning to be an Engineer already!



At least one person is getting sleep.



The weather was so pleasant Saturday. The kids told me they were being pirates, complete with a truck for a boat, life jackets, paddles and interesting pirate hats.





This is what Garrett's hair looks like after a bath.

7 days old...

Marshmallows, old tires and more...

Why do adults, myself included, think kids need toys when they have bunny marshmallows, old tires, rocks and Dad's tools? Scroll down and you will see how they are best used.

When they can do this!

Bunny marshmallow structures



Wash rocks and make rock soup using golf clubs...Dad's golf clubs. He doesn't really golf so I think it's oaky.







Digging a tire out of the ditch in the backyard with Dad's tools. This has been an ongoing project and the kids are determined they will get the tire out one of these days. In the meantime if Eric wants a screwdriver, pliers or clippers he may have trouble locating them. And it is a good thing I don't need that wooden curtain rod they found in the garage because it sure makes a great digging tool.
