Lagoon!!!

We were able to take the kids to Lagoon this summer. We had a great time. Ahlea shocked us all. She went on every thrill ride she could get on. Ethan on the other had...

Was stricken with FEAR!

Tray in the Mud

Bark!!!!

So we have been doing a lot of yard work lately. Our front yard is looking great. We got a lot of bark and covered all of the planter. Traysen was outside this morning with Grandma Smith. He kept pointing at the planters and saying "ruff, ruff, ruff". Grandma looked at him and said no that's BARK! What a funny boy. He knew we what he was talking about.

Ice Cream and Laughter!

The other day we were all at Grandma Smith;s house eating Fat Boy ice cream bars. Ethan was downstairs when we got them out so he didn't have won. He came upstairs and saw all of us with ice cream and he says "Hey why don't I get a fat kid? Where are the fat kids? Can I have a fat kid?" He is such a funny kid.

The Star-Spangled Banner

At Ahlea and Ethan's school, every mornig the say The Pledge of Allegiance and sing our national anthem. They love to sing this all over the house. We had a reunion over Memorial Day and Grandpa Smith asked me and the kids to sing this at the reunion. Ahlea stood up there with us, but was to affraid to sing. Ethan on the other had held the microphone and belted out the most wonderful rendition of The Star-Spangled Banner. He did an amazing job. I am thankful for this great nation that we live in and for the great school district we live in that gives them the opportunity to learn such a great song.

Holy Cow

Traysen is now 18 months old (yah for nursery). He is starting to talk and he says the funniest things. He can say "Thankyou, Cheese, Cookie, uh oh wawa", and last but not least "Holy Cow". He says this one when he is excited or when he sees the ceiling fan. He is such a cute kid.

Where is YOUR tar located????

Ethan is my deep thinker. He will come up to me often and ask the funniest questions. His question this time was "Mom if you get the tar kicked out of you, where is your tar at?" I tried really hard not to giggle at this. He is such a cute kid.
