1,2,3,4...I declare a bum war!

Kalli, Corban and Elina love to jump on the trampoline and have bum wars. (Shayla also loves to be on the trampoline and would gladly participate in a bum war if she could.) The other day when we were jumping Elina asked me if we could have a baby Clara bum war. Our friends, the Madsen's, have a baby named Clara but I could not figure out why Elina wanted to have a BABY CLARA bum war!? But then as I was saying the chant...1,2,3,4..I declare a bum war, it occurred to me that Elina was hearing 1,2,3,4...A BABY CLARA bum war! Ha Ha Ha! The things kids hear!

A weekend with Dad!

Nate was able to come out June 27th to July 1st. The kids were so excited to see him! I wondered how Shayla would react since she is just a baby, but after seeing her with him I realize I had nothing to worry about. The second she saw him she went right to him and didn't want me for a good half an hour. On Saturday we went to the glenville mini-sports plex and played some miniature golf. We took a time out in the middle of the game and ate ice cream cones while it rained and then finished our game. Elina wasn't very interested in golf but they did have play toys there for her to play on, in and around. It was a very good weekend with Dad and the kids can't wait to go out west on July 24th!

Shayla is walking

Shayla has been standing up next to things for a while now, but this last week she has really taken off with being brave and walking. She will walk for a while and then look unsure and sit down. You go girl!

Comfy and Cozy

This picture was taken at the Boren's house. Shauna was helping me start the blog and pulled this picture off her computer. Her cute kids are Samantha and Glenn.

Finally we are BLOGGING!

Probably a year ago, my sister Yvette, asked when I was going to set up a blog so she could keep up with our family. Despite having two really good friends that were willing and ready to help me set one up, whenever I wanted to, I never got it done. Hooray! Today is the day! We are BLOGGING!
