It's about time...

I'm so proud of us. It's only taken 11 and a half years of having children to start doing family night. Oh we've done what WE call family night, but not what it's suppose to be. You all know what I'm talking about. You go shopping, watch TV, play a game, ect.. together on Monday night and you get ice cream at the end and call it family night. So we've been going for five weeks strong now and so I thought it was time to make the FAMILY NIGHT Board. The best part is when Chunky conducts the meeting. He 'turns the time over to...' really well. giggle

Chunky's 1st talk in primary.

Chunky's Talk....I'm thankful for Jesus. Jesus suffered for my sins. If I live rightously, I can live with him again.

Brady's animal report project.....King Cobra

This is the only reptile allowed in my house.

Brady's trackmeet

After the practice trackmeet last week I decided that he wasn't getting the coaching he needed. (too many kids) So we took Brady to the school closest to us in the evening and practiced with him. It worked, he did great!
Nate Jones came to cheer Brady on.( Actually Kellie just wanted to visit with me and Liesl. It's kind of like girls day out.)

Easter egg hunt at the Grandparents house.
The Taylor Family "Peeped" us and left this cute bunny with chicks and a frog that sings At The Hop.

Happy Easter!

Who ever said coloring eggs was fun, didn't have to clean up the mess!

Music Video ..Best Day Ever (BR Boys and W8 Boys)

The Waite boys spent the night last night. The kids had a great time.

My talented Britton!

We bought Britton an origami calendar for Christmas last year. A different piece of origami a day for a year. Best gift we EVER got him. He has done every single one of them. This week he showed me the flower he made. I liked it so much I made him make me a centerpiece. I love it.

Grandma's sewing machine

My sewing machine got broke(Chunky)about a year ago. Everytime I needed to sew something I ended up at Kellie's house. Which has been a lot of fun, but not as easy as having your own machine. So I decided I wanted to make Easter ties for my boys. I was going to ask my Mom if I could sew them over there and then it came to me....My Grandma's sewing machine was in my parents garage. It's been there since she passed away 6 and a half years ago. No one took it because Marci and I had our own. My Dad said he just couldn't throw it away. I'm very glad. I have so many wonderful memories of sewing outfit with my G-ma with that machine. I was just praying it would still work after all these years. It worked greated and I remembered how it thread it and everything. So thanks to my parents for giving me such a wonderful gift. It reminds me that my G-ma is still here watching over me.

I (we) love rock n roll......

This is for our biggest fans....The Hatch Family. Enjoy!

The BR boys first FAN gift!!

Thanks to the Hatch family for their gift. It's nice to know that we have a Fan base. This next one is for you!!!!!

Family Night.....What I bought on ebay!

My kids LOVE this song. They listen to it all the time.

Spring Fling at the park

So we really did try to go to the Great American clean up. Only we thought it started at 10am. When we got to the church no one was there and the note on the door said it was from 8 to 10. So instead of the day being a total wash we cleaned the church for an hour and then went to the Park for the Spring Fling.
As Breyson calls them.... My Boys
Heather all pretty.

golf with Erin.
It doesn't get much better for a 3 year old then this!

Fav Foto Friday.....Little reminders that I Live in Bako!

These just kill me. Just when I think Bako is maybe not so 08ish this comes home from school. The spring picture proofs. Does anyone seriously buy these? Or maybe they buy them to have a good laugh later on in life. Who comes up with these cheesey backgrounds. Did they work at Sears in the early 80's? Sad, just sad.

Chunky is enjoying Britton's grounding

At my house when you get grounded you really get grounded. No Friends, No TV, No Computer, No Ipod and worst of all.... you have to swing your little brother on the swing for as long as the 3 year old wants to. giggle

I LOVE natural consequences!

Have you ever looked at your kids and thought....How will they EVER make it on their own? I do this just about every day with mine. So anyways, I'm sitting in church on Sunday when I look down and notice this. My 11 year old son wearing(I used this word loosely because they are 3 sizes too small)my 8 year old sons school shoes at church. I ask him wHere his shoes are. He tells me he used them at school on Friday and forgot them there. So what he's trying to tell me is instead of coming to me and telling me this. (knowing I'm going to be annoyed) He chooses to try and hide it. At this point I am soo mad. I tell him he has to go home. He says ok because his feet are killing him. (natural consequences) Robert decides he needs to stay at church and march him into his 11 year old all boys class and show everyone Britton's bad choice. Of course Dana sitting behind me reminded me that this needed to be Blogged!
