Things You Don't Say To Your Wife!

Now here is a video that I found on You Tube...I think it is hilarious! Hopefully you do too! Hopefully it doesn't hit too close to home! I have to admit Bryce has said a few bonehead things to me before...but this takes the cake! Feel free to leave any comments that your husband or wife has said to you! You're gonna have to turn off my music before you hit play!

Our 4th of July!

We went camping over the 4th of July! We had a blast with my family. The kids got super dirty and totally sugared up! There were even some of those "You're gonna miss this" moments: Oakley chasing butterflies and Kaybree collecting caterpillars. You can't get that staying in a hotel! All in all we had a great time!

The Tooth Fairy Finally Came!

Yesterday, Kaybree finally lost her tooth! Grandpa Dean and Grandma Janet were here...along with the rest of my family...Grandpa gave her a dollar! We were sooo excited, and a little nervous, to go to sleep. We put Kaybree's tooth in an envelope...
Then we put the envelope under her pillow!
This morning we found $5 and pixie dust (glitter) under her pillow!
Kaybree said that she saw the Tooth Fairy! She said the Tooth Fairy wore a beautiful pink dress, She had beautiful wings, and she wore a backpack to carry all the teeth in! She also said that when she flew around she scattered rainbow pixie dust! WOW!!! She is one lucky girl, I never saw the Tooth Fairy!
You can't really see the pixie dust in the picture, but it's there!

Weekend Fun!

This weekend we had John Wayne and Ashley come stay with us. We had so much fun and kids partied like there was no tomorrow! Here they are roasting marshmallows over the fire. After the fire we went inside and watched movies! Saturday we went to the splash park. (I forgot the camera for that one) Bryce and John Wayne. They were mission companions in Washington D.C.
Two peas in a pod!

We had a blast! I do have two complaints though:

they left too soon and we wish they lived closer!

Friends!

Amy was in town this last week. Amy is my very best friend from clear back in high school! Anyway, Amy was here for her sister's wedding. She was able to find time in her crazy schedule to hang out and stay with my family! She is a wonderful person, friend, sister, auntie! Not to mention an amazing cook! We had lots of fun with her, so much fun that my girls want her to live with us permanently! Like all good things, it had to end. She had to leave, but not without major crocodile tears on Oakley's behalf!
I would have to say that I am very blessed to have wonderful friends in my life. Between old friends, new friends, girls night out group, my wife, (hahaha) and my sisters, I would have to say life is pretty good! Thanks to all my friends!

She won a $35 savings account! Congratulations Oakster!

HaPpy FatHeR's DaY! (Belated)

I know it's a little late, but I still wanted to let Bryce know what a great Daddy I think he is. Bryce is so good with our little girls. He helps out all of the time. He does things that I know a lot of dad's wont do...like Bryce will actually get up with the girls in the middle of the night, after I kick him! Hahaha! Bryce plays so cute with the girls too. He'll get down and wrestle, play hide and seek, play daddy monster, (the only way to make him leave is to give him a kiss) Sometimes when Bryce comes home from work, he has little stickers and other doctor office bribe toys for the girls. He also brings them little goodies after his trips that he often has to take. Bryce is such a great fun dad that when the girls are in trouble...they call for dad to save them! Not only is Bryce a great dad, but he is a wonderful husband too. He's always there for me no matter what it is. If I need him to listen to me or if I need him to do laundry and vacuum, he does it. I know I would like to think that I do everything, that I have it all together, but the truth is Bryce is half the reason I still function every morning! Thanks for everything, I love you!

An Early Start on Father's Day!

Today we went to Robert's and bought some finger paint! We decided to paint up the garage as a surprise for Bryce! The girls loved it, and it took a long time! So if you are looking for some fun...I highly recommend it!

Twilight Depression!

Recently, I read all three of Stephanie Meyers Twilight books. It took me two weeks, but I couldn't put them down! Now that I am done, I'm in a Twilight depression! I can't get enough of it! I dream about the books, and when I'm lost deep in thought, I'm thinking about the books! I think I'm insane! I only just read them because I thought I wouldn't like them because they're about vampires...I don't do science fiction, but I LOVE these books! I'm so engrossed that I even compare Bryce to Edward. The other day, we were buying a new rake...I was on a different aisle than Bryce. He said, "Come here Slick!" to me. My response was, "Edward would never talk to Bella like that!" I think I have officially lost my mind! I'm not even sure who I like more, Jacob or Edward...I'm totally torn! On one hand I want Bella to be with Jacob just because it's more logical. It works out better for Bella and her family...On the other hand, I like Edward because they're so in love...All of you who have read these books, please leave a comment and tell me who you like...Jacob or Edward? It's official, I've posted about it now...I'm crazy!

Humdrum Day

Let me just tell you how sick of the cold weather I am! Today was a stay at home day. This is what we did....We ate lunch in our Care Bear Costumes and watched The Care Bear Movie! We jumped on the couch and made a fort with the couch cushions!
We got our swimming suits on and played in the sink! That is what we did for our humdrum day!I do have to post this picture of the girls...Last night we went to a birthday party. There was a clown at the party who painted all the kids faces! The girls had a blast! Oakley asked the clown if she would be her mom! Imagine that, Oakster wants a clown for a mom! Maybe I could send her home with the clown next time! Ha.Ha.Ha!!! I do have to mention that Kaybree was especially excited about the party because CAMERON was there! :)

Dancing Queen!

Yesterday was Kaybree's Dance Recital! She did an awesome job! She had two dances, the first was ballet to "Be Our Guest" (Beauty and the Beast) and the second was tap to "Zero to Hero." (Hercules) She got a medal for all of her hard work throughout the year! Kaybree and her dancing pals!
Emma, Kaybree, Sierra, and Payten

This is Hercules "Zero to Hero" dance. Do you see the little boy in the middle? Funny, Funny! Kaybree is front row right side!

( Hercules tap dance) Kaybree is front row right side.

"Be Our Guest" Ballet dance


The night before the dance recital, I curled Kaybree's hair with sponge curlers. This was the first time I have ever curled her hair. She has always had curly hair on her own, but now that she's getting older, the curl is leaving! Oakley, not wanting to be left out, got curlers in her hair too! (She doesn't need any help with curl!)

Thomas the Train!

On Memorial Day, my parents took all of the grand kids on Thomas the Train! We had lots and lots of fun!
Some of us did better than others!
(Oakley is not in the picture because she is screaming off on the side!)
All in all we had a great time!
Thanks Mom and Dad!


Oakster lost in the maze!

Kaybree lost in the maze!
