Slip-N-Slide

A slip-n-slide is another way we stay cool around here. Our neighbor across the street gave it to Ammon one Saturday at the beginning of summer when he was having a yard sale. Apparently Ammon told our neighbor that his Mom never buys fun things like slip-n-slides! He took pity on Ammon and gave it …

Smartie Pants

Tori is my little smartie pants. She is at such a fun copying age. She says whatever last word is said. She can get lots of things for me. She even puts away clothes for me. Today she amazed me. She was watching me make dinner. I had a can of green beans on the …

Bubbles?!

"Can I play in the water?" this is a question I hear daily, multiple times if I don't say yes the first time. Monday I told Britain yes when she asked and off she ran to recruit all the other kids. There were lots of yes's and dooring slamming. It quieted down once everyone was …

Hard Weekend?!

Tori must have had a hard weekend because Monday just before lunch I found her like this!   I am guessing she climbed up to get a doughnut and then what….! I don't know, she just feel asleep!   I put her in bed and she slept for three hours and then fell asleep at …
