Washing The Car!!

My little Isabelle wanted to help her dad wash the car. He gave her the sprayer and had me go and get the camera. She was doing great and was so proud of herself!!

She turned the hose towards me as I was taking pictures.
Then Daddy got all wet!!

Bunk Beds

Anyone know of a place to order a great bunk bed?? I'm looking for something simple and modern in a dark wood finish.

I Love Sundays!!

I was able to go back to church today!!! It was so good to worship with others and to feel of the spirit!! I didn't realize just how much I missed it until I was able to go back and feel exactly what I had been missing. It was so good to be in class, to share in the lessons, and learn from the scriptures and others. I really appreciate our ward family so much. So many good, generous, amazing, and talented people. They have all been so good to us through this time when I couldn't take care of my family. Bringing us meals, taking my kids, cleaning my house, bringing me movies, books, etc. They really made this time go smoothly!!

Well, after church we came home, fixed a quick lunch, and took naps. I love Sunday naps!!! For dinner tonight Jakob and Steve made us French Toast and Scrambled Eggs. YUM!! Here are a few pictures!! Jakob was involved in every step, except for dipping the bread in the egg mixture. He said he didn't want to get his hands dirty, but that he would do it when he got older.

Sparklers And My Little Artist!

Jakob woke up this morning and drew this picture of himself holding a sparkler. I think he had fun last night!! When Uncle Colin was lighting fireworks last night Jakob said, "Uncle Colin, you can light more fireworks?? I like this!." I love seeing my baby have fun!!!

4th of July

We had a fun 4th of July with family. We had a barbecue, the kids played in the pool and ran outside, and ended the night with fireworks. Except for Isabelle, we all really enjoyed the fireworks. She spent most of her time with her hands over her eyes and her face pressed into her daddy's chest!!

Yes, she did hold the sparkle for a minute, but it didn't last long.
Here she is, seconds later, running from the sparkler!!

Jakob Says....

On our way to the beach this last weekend Jakob asked to watch "Red" Robin Hood. I just had to laugh!!

Scrapbooking Supplies!!

I just bought a couple kits from It Kit Studio and I am so excited to get them. I'm still trying to take it easy since I've been off bedrest, still want this baby to stay put for at least another couple weeks. So, what a perfect opportunity to get caught up on some scrapbooking. Digital scrapbooking is great and I am so glad I finally had the chance to learn how to do that!! BUT, I love to scrapbook and create with glue, paper, stamps, paint, buttons, etc. It has been so fun to do a couple pages these last couple days. I told myself I wasn't going to buy anymore scrapbooking supplies until I had made a dent in the ones I have, but these were such a good deal!! (40% and 75% off!!!) Anyway, I'm so excited to get them.

This is the sight I ordered these kits from. Such cute kits each month!!
