Kite Derby

this is kind of old but last saturday we did a kite making derby for cub scouts. The boys(brandon,jared and dad) had fun making them. They didnt work real well. But we couldnt get the ones they got for easter to work well either. ALyssa's turtle got up a few times. And corey and jared had fun at the park.

planting our garden

We have been busy this morning planting our garden. Corey and Jared helped dig holes and water the plants with the watering can. What great helpers. Thanks to the in-laws for growing so much of it for from seed early. We are doing tomatoes, beans, radishes, Hot peppers, bell peppers broccoli and some cucumbers!! Yummy. Brandon is growing a Honeydew melon in the back for his cub scout stuff. Now if I can just keep the Bunny's and KIDS out until everything gets big.

The picture is of our garden last year in July.

Father-son camp-out!!

All I heard about all week was we are going camping with dad!! So Friday finally came and the boys got all packed. Corey stayed home with the girls this year but I'm sure he will go next year. Poor dad! He didn't get alot of sleep. But they had fun..

Feild trip

Alyssa's fifth grade took a trip to Des Monies to the Capital and Zoo. Dad took the day off to be

a chaperon. They had a great time

Just some fun things we do around the house. The boys found some tassels and made them into go tees! Then pretended they were rock stars. Cute.

FHE- Mothers Day

So Sunday was mothers day and I got Alvin and the Chipmunks! I love that movie it is super fun to watch with the kids cause they dance and and repeat the lines. So we did a movie night family home evening with tickets and all. It was so much fun. Brandon took tickets and alyssa worked concessions and gave out popcorn and root beer. I was a great day!
