Picture Tag 2

Ok different computer so different pictures.

The picture tag rules are to go to your pictures folder, select the 4th folder, then the 4th picture, and blog it.

This is a picture of our house when we first moved in in 2000. As you can see not much has changed but it is a TON cleaner!

Picture Tag

Okay I usually ignore these but this was a cute idea.

So mine is a video of Matthew playing soccer his first year. Its actually cute and a good idea since Matthew didn't play soccer this year because he didn't like it.

Summer Time

I think we need a bigger pool! Oh wait I have one I just can't put it up. Ever! I love the water and so do my kids. We had Xan and Connor over and we went swimming. I think they had fun??? :)

You are Special

I love reading stories to my boys every night but tonight was especially tough because the kids wouldn't sit still and listen so halfway through a story I told them to go to bed because they weren't listening. Well Matthew was doing homework and when he was done he wanted me to read to him a story called "You are Special". He asked so nicely and had done all of his homework so I told him yes. We got this book from my sister-in-law Cindi a couple of years ago and the kids liked it but didn't really get it. Tonight I read it to Matthew and he really got it! He asked if he was special and if he was slippery. I told him yes he was and that all Gods children were. I told him that Puncinello just needed to remember that. It was very neat to see the light in his eyes and I had to hold back tears when he wanted me to read it again. So in short(er) summary go and buy this book or get it from me or the library it is a great way to show kids how special they are.

Water Fight

So Matt went to the store on the way home from a movie and bought water balloons and this little thing to fill them up with. The boys were so excited to throw them. They were chomping at the bit until we filled most of them up. A couple of times we didn't even get them filled cuz the kids would break one and then we would start throwing until they were all gone. Finally we had to shoo them inside until we got them all done. Then it was on. We tried to pick teams and only go after those on the other team but once we started throwing no one could remember. Christopher was even throwing them. It was so much fun. I wish I would have got pictures but the kids were soaked and Matt and I were the worse of the bunch. It was great fun! I LOVE SUMMER!!!

Mothers Day

What a great day! I love my family, all of them. We had a totally great relaxing and fun day. I have a wonderful mother and mother in law and love them both. I am glad I have a relationship with both of them and that they offer me their wisdom. So on a less serious note here are my presents...

So Matt's present was a card with $ and then the pink dress was in there. So....for all you who knew I would, yes we are going to try for a fourth baby!!!
