And this piece goes where???

"HIGH ABOVE"


Skyler has been very into puzzles lately. He has been working on this one for quite some time now and has finally finished. I think he does so well at them because he is so smart. My brain

just doesn't work that way.

Footballs, Skateboards, and Popsicles

Cayden Riding Skyler's Skateboard
Cooling Off

Skyler, and Joe playing football

On Sunday we went outside to play football with Cayden. He said that he was in charge because it was his football. He told us that if we dropped the ball we were out but, that if he dropped the ball he was not out because he was in CHARGE. Joe tried to teach Skyler how to hike the ball two handed but Skyler was too embarrased to put his hands that close to Joe's back end. Then, Cayden decided that he wanted to try and ride Skyler's skateboard. I thought he sure looked cute on it. He says that he wants a small one for Christmas. Afterwards, we had popsicles to cool us off. It was sure nice to spend some quality time together.

Folding Laundry

The other day there was a basket of laundry laying on the floor in the family room. Cayden sat down and started folding laundry. I thought it was so cute that he would do that all by himself. I don't remember any of my other kids folding laundry at the age of 5. He is getting so big.

I lost another Tooth...

After a long day at Webelos scout camp, I decided to lay down on the couch for a few minutes. I was awaken by Mariah telling me she lost another tooth. I didn't think she had anymore to loose this year since she has lost so many. Our poor tooth fairy is going to be broke. When her tooth came out it busted off and left part of the tooth in her gums. I have tried to get it out but can't. We will try and get ahold of the dentist to see what we need to do.

Webelos Day Camp...Camp Tracy

"The Boys"

Doing the skit, "The Invisible Bench"

Quinten, Taylor, Dallin, Andrew, Chris, and Seth

Last week I spent 2 days at Camp Tracy with my Webelos Scouts. We did the Showman, Artist, Readyman, Sportsman, Naturalist, Forester, and Communicator pins. Each day I could hardly wait to get home and have a shower. My kids said the van stunk and I told them to imagine what the boys smelled like. Anyways it was fun (if you like that kind of stuff) and the boys learned alot. Hopefully this calling will not be mine for long. I know I shouldn't say that but this is not my favorite thing.

Notebooks...

Our neighbors Craig and Collett Dawson brought down 40 notebooks to donate for Skyler's eagle project. Thank You so much.

Shield Safety owners and Skyler

Skyler has had a lot of success with his eagle project. He has been working hard at getting donations from businesses, ward members, and family. Joe delivers to Shield Safety a company on his route and asked them if they would be able to help us. We got a very generous donation from Shield Safety. The items they donated were medical gloves, batteries, hand sanitizer, and all the first aid kits with supplies. They also gave us the rope, poncho, emergency blankets, flashlights, and glow sticks at cost. We would like to Thank Shield Safety for their support and help with this project. We appreciate it more than words can say. Lastly, if any of you need any kind of emergency supplies for your home or business, I would recommend looking up Shield Safety. It was well worth it for us.
