Wowzer. It's been a while!

Yep, that's a peanut butter, refried bean and olive sandwich.  But don't worry, Layne had water with it, so all is well.  


Hadley wanted a "7" birthday party.  Soooo....we went to the 7 continents.  She's from Argentina.  We had the big map on the wall and added each continent as we went there.  We had Kangaroo hopping dress-up relay races in Australia, Churros in South America and on and on.   



Happy Easter

Layne loves to give directions while I'm driving.  "Left Mommy; right at the next stop sign," etc.  So I told her I wanted to stop at the gas station on the way home from preschool to get a Coke--yes, it's a rather frequent occurrence--what of it!  Anyway, she directs me to the chosen destination and announces, "Here we are the the Coke Station, Mommy".  Not gas station--coke station.
Russ always finds funny places to hide Easter baskets.  He makes these kids WORK for their candy!






Seriously, I love this kid.  This is his eraser army.  He's been collecting them all year.  Each division has it's strengths and specialties.  Man I love this kid!


Happy Birthday Layne!  (It's a whole month after Hadley's, but I've been a flake about blogging).  She got a watering can and decided to water our new apple trees...in the rain, of course.  AHHHH Washington.
Layne was Pinkalicious for her party.  Honestly, if you don't have the book you need to get it!  So we had Pinkalicious games and fun.  All these little tiny pink people crack me up!



Hippity Hop Races...of course!




Yippy for new sand in the sandbox!  All four of my kids were playing at the same thing, at the same time.  Yippy for kids!

  3. HI, Were from Mississippi. My son has an eraser army and so we did a search for pictures of other eraser armies. yours was on of the top hits. as soon as i saw your family, I immediately said... they are LDS! Don't ask me how, but you can just tell. After looking at the rest of your blog (older posts) it was more obvious. Your family is so much like ours... pretty cool.

    Nice blog. btw. stay cool up in Washington. miriamnms.blogspot.com
