Fun photos

So, My baby brother Adam (as discussed and shown in a previous post) works at Harry & David. He lovingly sent me a box of delights. We unpacked the box and this is what was in it! Hog Heaven! Yes, 45 pounds of deliciousness which we have been giving away like.... well, like candy.


I was upstairs dealing with Delaney one afternoon and when I came down, I couldn't find Callie. I asked Marian where Callie was and Marian said "She's asleep in the black chair." Hmmm. She wasn't in the black recliner... what other black chair was there?! Oh, the computer chair! Here is how I found her.


Joshua had a most fantastic day. Dan took him out on a Daddy Date and they had lunch at BK. Then Daddy inflated the raft and took the kids to the beach to try it out. Later Daddy helped the kids set up the slip-n-slide and let them trash the yard again. Then they got to play on the neighbor girls super-cool inflatable slide and pool. Then Mommy made a treasure hunt with clues that led the kids to a tasty treat (see top photo!). And yet, after all this fun, THIS is the face we saw the most today. There is just no pleasing some people. Dan is mocking Joshua in this picture, which isn't helping, but it sure is funny!

After all the things that Daddy did today, you must be wondering just what Mommy did today. I rode my bike 5 miles, ran 3 1/2 and got a headache from it all. I did 4 loads of laundry and ate half a pound of pistachios. I prepared a Sunday School lesson and fish sticks for lunch. I organized my collection of Family History stories and I took a nap. I also prepared and executed said treasure hunt from above. And now, I am going to finish watching "War of the Worlds." I've never seen it and so far it is exciting, but boy, there is a lot of screaming in it!

That's a funny picture I know what you mean though we have days like that. Oh you know you should set up a password for Joshua, or put up some major blockers. I used to have one, but had not use for it so got rid of it, but you had to have a password to go the website if anything possible was bad. I dont' understand what he is clicking on, My kids only go to disney or nick thankfully.

That sounds like what Kaitlin would do at Disneyland. We do so much to entertain our kids but it is never good enough. We have the Wii and two DS's, a million toys, bikes and scooters and they still complain. They have such a rough life.

It must have to do with the year they were born because Michelle does the exact same thing. It drives me crazy.

Thanks for the treats! I'll put them to good use on our trip!
