Londons New Friend Eena

Today at church London and I were looking through a coloring book and saw a picture of a hyena. I said, "London can you say Hyena?" Her response "Hi Eena, I liked you!" Oh Miss London, the things you say really are just to darn CUTE!!!

Kitty Balls & 2011 Summer Pic OVERLOAD!

Meet KITTY BALLS, that's right you heard me Kitty Balls. You may ask WHY is the kitties name Kitty Balls so I ask you to just sit and think....................got it yet? Lets just say this is a boy kitty and it's quite obvious/disgusting!!! All my kids call him Kitty Balls and we laugh every time, woops. This summer would NOT be the same if we didn't have Kitty Balls around, he gets more love (and abuse;) than any one Kitty Balls deserves. LOVE YOU KITTY BALLS:)

Bear Lake, that is just a MUST right?

Dane reaching.........I couldn't help myself, could you? I mean look at that fine specimen, SO CUTE!!!!

Bear Lake, London walking around looking so CUTE I wanted to eat her.

Poor London went to insta care two weekends in a row. 1st time to have them dig out a HUGE sliver. 2nd time to set her elbow because it popped out of socket at church. Poor girl but she was so cute. We had the same Doctor both times and he was smitten with her cuteness:)

Loving our regular Shaved Ice

We are BIG fans of shaved ices!!! So we get them WAY TO MUCH!!!

Cute mutts!

It was Angie's birthday and all she wanted to do was go DANCING!!! So............we did, lol:) My married sister, my engaged sister and myself and my slightly older mother went western swing dancing on a wednesday night. I have never laughed so hard in my life. My mom was the only one asked to dance, she was HOTT!!!! That was utile her dance partner dropped her, but still even then she was a hottie:) Love my sisters and mom, I really don't know what I would do without them!

Oh Kitty Balls, you make me smile:)

Pool TIME!!! Miss London being a little fish, she LOVES the water!

I mean really........he couldn't be any cutter!!

I would eat him up if I could!!!!

London posing again. That thing she is sitting on......... I can't wait to show you what I'm doing with them!!!!

My sweet Dane getting into everything AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, cut monkey!

Yes he is elbow deep into the jam.

Jack has been fishing quite a bit and we cook the fish and eat them:) Jack thinks he's cool and he eats the fish eyes and cheeks:) I know it sounds weird but when I told him that we used to have Chinese visitors and they ate the eyes and cheeks he thought that he must to the same:)

London does a lot of this, just being cute:)

Jack has hung out with his cousins that he thinks they are so COOL!!!! I mean this pic says a million words:) He prays for them EVER NIGHT, lol:)

Hanging out with some more FUN cousins:)

Canada

We wet to Canada last month and LOVED it! Here are a few of our favorite moments.

Jack did a LOT of this:) LOVED THE DOGS!!!

Riley did some of this.

And some of this ( look at the little boys face, he was NOT happy, poor kid!)

Dane did a lot of this

Jack doing more of this

The twins did some of this, DANE loved riding the horse!!!

London did this WAY TOO MUCH!!!! TO be fair, so did Dane, lol;)

Riley Got on his FIRST horse, so cute!

We visited the Hooterite Colony (a lot like the Omish). I love this pic, Riley holding the twins with the CUTE little Hooterite boys behind us.

These are the little Hooterite boys, I wanted to take them home with me. So sweet and very respectful.

Ray Lamontagne Concert

Riley surprsed me and took me to my FAVORITE singer Ray Lamontagne Concert. I just have to say that he is even better in concert than on CD. LOVE HIM:) Thanks Riley, LOVED IT!!!

I have never seen so MANY interesting people in my life!!!!! I could have gone just for the entertainment of people watching.

Trunk Makeover!

I have been having so much fun planning my little kidos rooms in our new home:) This Trunk was one that my mom had down stairs in the storage room.

BEFORE

I know what your thinking, it's greta as is! BUT for my little London's room the makeover is just PERFECT!!!

AFTER

The fabric draped on it is London's bedding:) SO YUMMY!!!

In my opinion it couldn't have turned out more perfect!!! LOVE IT!!!

THis little beauty is going to be London's Night stand:)

It was easy. I simply primed, primed, primed, primed and primed and then sanded it a little to give it that old, worn out look:)

IN the next few days I'll show you the finished trunks that I did for the boys room!!!!

Jack's Good Intentions

I wen to the pool with the sisters a few days ago and had a.........interesting time, lol;) Even with 3 adults 5 kids in the pool was stressful. The drowned ratio seemed to be at a good number but it was just to much work for not enough fun. The kids on the other hand had a GREAT time!! Jack is so good in the water, he doesn't go to far away and he's like a fish:) Dane and London wanted to be by the big kids so I had to keep chasing them back to the shallow water......I know what your thinking and it's not funny;) Ok I'm sure some folks had a good time watching this "solid" lady run through the shallow water:)

Jack was standing next to London and the little MUTT just started to shove her under the water.....I know right!!! It scared the crap out of me!! I ran over there (yes funny mental image of me running) and pulled London out of the water and ordered Jack out of the water. I told him we were leaving because of the choice that he had made (we were already planning on leaving, it worked out perfect) and started to pack everything up. As I was scolding him for his bad choice he finely got two words in and said, "Your not listening to me!" "OK Jack, what were you thinking?"Jack said, "I was just bapatizeing London!!" MaRea, Angie and myself all stared at each other and started laughing so hard that I'm sure Jack was very confused. Then we all took a shot at trying to explain baptism to the cute little mutt.

Maybe yawl can lean from my Jack and teach your kids that we don't just go around "bapatizeing" people. Or not and just wait till they bapatize some unknowing person and see what happens, lol:) Cute little mutt!!!

Hopeing for an unanswered prayer

Tonight in Jack's prayer he said, "Please bless that we have 100 babies and that Griffin will come over and play with me at the Farm, Amen." I'm going to through a "Please Bless" out there that God was taking a nap when that prayer was offered up..........really I don't think Jack meant it:)

Then Jack told me that we could only cuddle for one minuet and when that one minuet was up he kicked me out......so sad but I laughed all the way up the stairs. What a MUTT:)
