Randoms In Randon Order!

The boys both like to go help (eat) everything out of Grandpa Bills garden. He has amazing gardens, I say gardens because he randomly plants them all over the yard. If we only had a yard big enough to do that in but we don't, so we just go claim his crops. They think that this is the best find. It is crazy how huge these things get, we had no idea it was even down there. They really want to eat it but I have convinced them that the the big turtles need to eat the big food. (glad that worked it looks disgusting)

Landon is doing so good in swimming, he started the summer out not swimming at all and know he is going across the pool. I am so proud of him. Heather is a great teacher.

This is a random one but my camera is always missing and then suddenly back with pics like this. Poor Jason has done a lot of these home inspections and hates every minute that he is melting in peoples attics.

~Jason, Thanks for doing them~

I thought I would spare you all the pictures of the dead rabbits so here are the boys on the look out for them. It is amazing that Van is still alive, these pictures do make me question if we are good parents?

We had a family day! We never have family days, Jason is always working or life just gets in the way but a couple of weeks ago we took the whole day and spent it together. We went to see UP in 3d and Landon loved it. Van loved running up and down the side ramp and every time I would pick him up we would yell as loud as he could "Dad I stuck where are you?" I am sure people hated us.

I hope everyone took time to enjoy the free donut on National Donut Day. It was a hit with our kids, they all ate the donuts and we will for sure do it next year!

Happy Birthday

Landon Loves Birthdays! He loves everything about them and today for Lorin's birthday we started the festivities early.... First thing he did this morning was singing him happy birthday, he even sang before his chocolate milk (nothing usually comes before his chocolate milk, it is his coffee). Next was down stairs to make the birthday card. He was in such a hurry to get it done he insisted working on it while he ate his high quality breakfast (not sure how this happened but neither of them spilt on there projects = amazing!) The finished project was a bucket with a super girl, wonder girl, and superman, and in my opinion one of the best books ever, Guess How Much I Love You. The boys did a good job shopping with me to pick it all out and I think that Grandma was happy with the gift they put together and had delivered by 8:30 this morning. Here's to a great day to celebrate the "super hero strength" of Uncle Lorin!

~sorry, my pictures are not in the right order and I am not going to fix them~

Quality time with Dad?!

He got that raskley rabbit!

(and many of his friends)

sum~sum~summer time

Summer is FINALLY here and I could not think of a better way to kick things off then a trip to Tempe Town Lake Splash Park. Out of all the splash parks I think this one is my favorite, I just wish it was a little closer. Anyway, I loaded up my kids and Shani's and we started our first day of summer break in style! Van Loved it and was completely fearless, Bodin, Landon, and McKinna, well, they were everywhere and McKade wished the water was warmer but we got him wet anyway.

Then we were so excited when Brandon, Erin, and the gang came by to join us.

Can't wait to go again!

I'm gonna get that raskley rabbit

Animal lovers may not want to read this

Van is better known as......

Elmer Fud

Van is talking sooo much, I have to admit sometimes I wish he would slow down and be silent but that's not going to happen. It is kind of Scary but one of his favorite sentences is

"Shot Rabbit"

with

"shh wheres bird"

in a close second.

He is all boy and one of his favorite things to do is shoot rabbits and birds with Jason. Jason got a very expensive high powered pellet gun and lets just say that Van might love it more than Jason. We got Van a look alike and it has been going everywhere with him, he even takes it to bed. I guess a good hunter always has to be ready, right?!

Jason loves his little hunting buddy, however, I am not sure I like my one year old saying his favorite phrases but I do like sending him on short hunting trips, gives me a quiet house.
