Crazy I know going to rummages today & having one tomorrow here. It is suppose to be REALLY hot I hope we sell some stuff...

She was a little tired can you tell. It is really hot out, I think the heat got to her. Have to laugh at the book on her face every day...

Taylor tried on her new swimsuits from Nana. She found her belly button in this photo..:)

She is a cutie!!! She has her new little sandals on she picked out at Walmart the other day..

Ok she has had enough!!! Let me out of here. She was so good letting me try them on & take pictures, but even she has limits :)

cute little outfit she wore today..

The pool , we were all excited it was almost full of water & they were hoping to get everything done today & then they noticed it was pushing out at the seams (not good) so now they are draining it & trying to decide what is the problem. :( Really HOT here & suppose to be for the next few days, kids were hoping it would warm the water up...

Day with the Bernius"

Taylor & I had a play date with the Bernius', the girls older brother Todd is out of school, I had him in preschool & he is always bummed to hear we had a playdate while he was at school.

Todd & Taylor had fun together

Ruth loves T

watering their plants

blowing bubbles

They surprised me & took me to Sirlion Stockade for lunch for an early birthday. Taylor loved everything.. She was helping Ms Juli stir her coffee

I felt bad for our waitress, our table was a disaster with an 18 month, 2 yr , 4 yr & 8 yr old. Whew it was exhausting :) but fun!!!

Mission Wed May 23rd

Mission today: Family Dinner Night Make us do something out of the ordinary, such as eating in a different room, on the floor, be creative..... T & I decided we would eat with chopsticks. As you can see after we bought them, she was practicing with them in the car...:)

She looks like she is doing pretty good huh....

yes we are eating mashed potatoes, noodles, corn & dinner rolls,. I had this planned already so we went with it.. Buttering the dinner rolls proved to be one of the harder challenges. Matt decided using the fat end was the way to go.. He also only ate one plate full said it was a lot of work & you fill up when you slow down & eat...:)

It was fun....
