How long have had your glasses?

On Monday I took Skyler and Cayden to get their hair cut. While we were there the lady cutting Cayden's hair asked him how long he had his glasses. He replied, " Ever Since I Couldn't See". All the ladies in the salon were laughing because it was so cute. He makes me laugh all the time.

Drive-In Movie

Last night our YM/YW had a drive-in movie. They told the kids to make their own car out of a box. Kaylee made hers into a "BUG" car literally. She made it look like a ladybug. She put a license plate on the back that said,"BUG OFF". It sure turned out cute. She even matched her clothes she was wearing to her car. She was the only YW that made one. She won the "Most Creative Car Award". Good Job, Kaylee.

P.S. Skyler was unable to go because he was home sick throwing up. He was going to make his car into an Army tanker.

Making Taco Soup

The other night while the kids were at dance, Cayden decided to help me make dinner. He helped pour the cans of various ingredients into the pot. All of a sudden I look over and Cayden is sampling our dinner we made. Yummy!!!

Toilet Papering

The morning after the dance we woke up to our house being toilet papered. Kaylee wasn't very happy with me because her and Skyler were going to have to clean it up. I knew it wasn't my friends that did it (because I don't have any) LOL. So Kaylee and Mariah went out and cleaned it up before Skyler was even out of bed. Skyler says that if you get toilet papered it means you are popular. Woot, Woot, for the first time in my life I am popular (I am thinking its not me though). Boy am I glad that we don't have more trees. Oh, the joy of having teenagers. Just think its only just begun.

P.S. If you know who toilet papered us, a reward is being offered. LOL.

Watching Movies

Here are Skyler and Kyrsti watching movies after the dance.

A Winters Night Dream...

Skyler...he's the bomb diggity

Kaylee... watch out boys here she comes

Kyle and Kaylee

Last week Skyler and Kaylee went to their first official semi-formal dance at their school. It was called "A Winter's Night Dream". Kaylee got a new dress, sweater, and shoes. It was rather stressful picking out a dress for Kaylee that was modest. She picked this dress out and I told her she needed to wear something over the top. When we got to the cash register, her dress was on clearance for only $5.90...what a steal of a deal. I would have liked her to get a slightly bigger size. However, I figured that at that price she could only wear it only a few times and we would have gotten our money's worth. Luckily she is small and fit in the only one they had. Skyler got new pants, shirt, and a tie. Skyler's outfit on the other hand, was more than Kaylee's outfit even with shoes. Who would have thought. They seemed to have a good time. Afterwards they came home and watched a movie together.

Missionaries for Dinner

Elder Hancock, Piper, Skyler, Kaylee, Mariah, Dexter, Joe, and Elder Pearl

(not shown...Julie, and Cayden)

A few weeks ago we had the missionaries over for dinner. The kids really enjoyed having them come. Elder Hancock was from Virginia, and Elder Pearl was from Africa. We are grateful for the spirit they brought into our home.
