Spring Fever!

Today is perfect! the sun is shining, there is not a pinch of wind to be found, and the 61 degrees could not be better. I love days like this. They are good for keeping you happy and motivated. I cannot begin to tell you how much I acomplish on a perfect day. Triston does not get out of the house much, due to the fact that our house is a new construction and with all the moisture has left it really muddy. He was in hog heaven bringing down all of his trucks from upstairs to play with them on the deck. To ensure that my whole family did not run away, which all three of them are known to do (Triston,Elvis&Priscilla) I put up a baby gate to keep them all in so I could enjoy the sun myself while swaying back and forth on the porch swing. Here is some pictures I colaberated and put in a slide of our little outing. Enjoy!

Crafting

Making Kiddie Cook Books with my sisters While trying to be crafty about it. Im thinking we were being a little bit more messy than crafty;)

The Three Stooges

The other day my sisters and I all happened to manage ending up at my moms for the day, Which was really quite nice not only for us to have a chance to hangout and visit but for the cousins to have the oppertunity to play, and boy did they play, let's just say they all ended up without pants,shoes and socks. Boys and RyeRye will be Boys and RyeRye. This picture is of the boys eating spaghettios. I guess they all found it nessisary to eat them in unison.

FHE

This last monday I decided to take some action and get down to buisness on Family Home Evening. It's really easy to put it off when you have a young one at home who shows no enterest, so Triston and I went to the Book Barn and picked out a couple of full color ready to use FHE books. I really enjoyed putting the lessons together. All I need now is a laminater to finish them up. For those of you who have wee ones at home this is a great idea to get the little tykes involved. Triston loved being able to participate in the lesson and we all had a good experience.

Highway Robbery!

A few weeks ago Andrew Triston and I went into Kmart to look for some snow boots for Trisotn. A man with a booth stoped us and wanted us to take advantage of this awsome permotion a photography company was having. "pay only $25.00 for a 16x20 mated and framed canvas plus a $5.00 sitting fee." RIGHHTT!!.Well most of you know, but for those of you who don't my New Year resolution was to be better about taking and getting family photos done, so of course we accepted. Two weeks later we got the photos taken and were very happy, that is until the next two weeks past and we went to go and pic up our $25.00 16x20 mated and framed canvas, wich was neither mated framed or a canvas just a 16x20 picture, and pick out and pay for the other shots they took. Let't just say the title of this blog explains itself. the prises were outragious and they would not give us a deal. What they did not know was I was in the room when they told the family before us to not tell anyone of the deal they had just given them, but I never said a word to the men about what I had heard mainly because Iwas too chicken. So to sum it up we walked out of there with one of there cheapest packages with not very many pictures in it for over $200.00 dollars, yes folks you read it right $200.00 big ones. And for example if you wanted to just pick out your pics and not have them in a package you were looking at $40.00 at cheapest for a sheet.Oh and P.S. the quality of the pictures deffinently did not coinside with the prises. Now I tell you this story not to use my blog as a semi private place to whine but to worn all of you out there, CAUTION: DO NOT GET YOUR PICS DONE AT SAFEWAY OR KMART,BAD IDEA. So you are all welcome our family was the ginnie pigs of one of these decieving outfits and lost so you don't have to be taken advantage of and robbed.THE END.
