What a Weekend!

With the beautiful weather this weekend, it was time to PLANT THE GARDEN. We started Friday night and finished up Saturday morning. Whew! I wish I could say the hardest part is behind us...but now we need to keep up on the weeding. YUCK! Oh well...


(Strawberry Patch)


(Vegetable Garden)


Luckily we had lots of help from Kelsey and Cyrus...not quite sure was Emily is doing...but I'm sure it helped us get that garden in.







We also took a trip north to Roy to celebrate cousin Conner's birthday party. It was a quick little trip, but we enjoyed some cake, jumping on the trampoline, and playing with Conner's new toys.



On the way back, we decided to stop in at the local "after hours" doctor clinic. Cyrus had jumped out of our swing Friday afternoon and had been favoring his hand ever since. It looked a bit swollen so we thought we should probably have it checked out. SURPRISE! He had broken his wrist. He is now in a splint until the swelling goes down, then he gets a "real" cast on Wednesday. He was excited when the cute FEMALE doctor was telling him all about how cool casts are...he gets to pick the color...people get to sign it...etc. Once we got outside, he got pretty somber. When I asked him what was wrong he said.."So does this mean I don't get to go to preschool?" When I told him he could still go to preschool he then asked, "What about jumping on Grandma and Grandpa's trampoline? Can I still do that?" After telling him he could do that too, he was just fine. We'll see how happy he is after 4 weeks of the real cast.

We went to sacrament meeting but he would not go to his classes. He said that he didn't like everyone looking at him. Poor little guy. I hope preschool is better for him tomorrow.

I hate it when people look at me too! Maybe if I just close my eyes everywhere I go...
Poor Cy guy! But at least you got some help out of him before he went out of commission for the next few weeks!
He's the toughest cat I know. Not the most amazing swing-jumper... but tough as nails

Snug as a Bug in a Rug....

Kelsey is a bit of a wild sleeper. We usually find at least one appendage hanging (or stuck) out of the crib. The poor girl was REALLY stuck this time. She's asleep in this picture, but didn't sleep long once we started the routine to unstick those thighs.

She Wears Me Out

Why is it when I need to stick to a schedule and get things done, there are those that try to keep me from completing anything?? Let me introduce you to Miss Kelch....you can see she has had an eventful morning. I had made some chocolate peanut butter bars in the morning to be ready for the kids for an after school snack....Kelsey enjoyed the frosting off of the bars while I was using the facilities. While cleaning up the chocolate mess, I realized things had gotten too quiet. Upon opening the door to my bathroom, I found the lovely miss Kelsey applying some mascara to her lushes eye lashes..as well as the fronts of my bathroom cabinets. As I was cleaning up the mascara with my favorite tool...the Magic Eraser..I heard Alyson crying and realized she was laying (unprotected) on the ottoman. As I ran down the stairs and rounded the corner....I found this.... I must admit I was pretty impressed she was able to get Alyson into this feeding position. I'm guessing it wasn't a smooth ...
