Parker Wearing a Box - September 30, 2014

Tuesday - September 30, 2014

When I pulled out this box from our eggs, Parker grabbed it and put it on.  He is too goofy.  He looked really funny running around with it on.  Then Roger started teasing him and made him lay down on his back.  It was funny watching him trying to get up.  It actually didn't take him too long.  After Parker took it off, Brinley tried it out.  but she thought it would be funnier to wear it under her shirt.  Alissa was just chillin' on the love sac while this was going on, so I took some pictures of her also.

Family Night - September 29, 2014

Monday - September 29, 2014

We had a fun family home evening tonight.  Roger taught our lesson.  It was about keeping the Sabbath day holy.  After the lesson, I was in charge of an activity.  We played a game were you stand back and two of you shoot rubber bands at sheets of toilet paper.  Whoever breaks through their toilet paper first, wins.  It was hard for the kids, so we let them sit closer.  In the end, Roger won.  We all had a lot of fun.

Brinley's Dot-to-Dot Coloring - September 28, 2014

Sunday - September 28, 2014

Brinley was really proud of how quickly she was able to finish each of these dot-to-dots.  She wrote down what she wanted me to write about how fast she finished her dot-to-dots, but I can't remember which paper goes with which dot-to-dots.  One paper says, "Brinley made this dot-to-dot in like a minute and it had 288 dots."  The other paper says, "Brinley made this dot-to-dot in about a minute and a half and it has 139 dot-to-dots."

She did a good job.  She is also excellent at coloring.

Brinley's friend, Mikenna got baptized today!  Brinley was really excited to go and be there to see Mikenna get baptized.  They have been friends since they were 2 and 3 years old.  Mikenna's little sister also got blessed today.  Her little sister's name is Kirtlynd.

Heather, Kirtlynd, and Braxin.

National Pancake Day - September 26, 2014

Friday - September 16, 2014

Today is National Pancake Day.  I didn't realize this until Alissa's friend, Sydney called to tell us.  She wanted to celebrate National Pancake Day with us.  She brought over a nice skillet for us to use (since I don't have one).  The pancakes were so yummy!  And I loved using the skillet she brought over.  I want my own so bad.  So, if anybody is wanting to buy me something nice for my birthday (on October 21st), you know what to get.

Redneck Waterbed - September 25, 2014

Thursday - September 25, 2014

Since we noticed that the weather was going to start cooling down, we thought we better hurry up and do our redneck waterbed before the weather changed.  Thursday was the best day for us to do it.  The only problem with Thursday was that not very many friends could come and play that day.  The kids ended up going a couple doors down and asking our neighbors in #1 to come out and play.  We don't see them very often.  They just don't come out to play a lot, but when they do the kids love it.  They always have so much fun together.  They are going to be moving next week, so that is a bummer, but at least they got to have fun together today.

I love to lay our and relax on the waterbed as it is filling up.  It wasn't quite as enjoyable this time because of the light glaring off of the fence and the side of the house.  That's the reason I couldn't convince Roger to come out and relax on it with us.  Anyway... So, we relaxed on it for a while.  When it was full, we went to invite the neighbors out to play.  Here are the pictures of our fun.

Hanging Out With Our Friends - September 24, 2014

Wednesday - September 24, 2014

Our friends the Croziers came over to play tonight.  We always make No-Bake Cookies when they come.  When we first started making them, Heather would call them poop cookies.  One of the times she was here, we were make ourselves feel better by talking about hoe these are healthy cookies because they have oatmeal in them.  During that conversation we decided to start calling the cookies Chocolate Oatmeal so it sounds a little healthier.  Anyway, so we made chocolate oatmeal.  The kids played in the bubble for a little while.  I didn't take any pictures because I was busy preparing the Chocolate Oatmeal.  When everybody had their treat, we went in the living room and watched 'The Croods".  It was an enjoyable evening.  We like it when the Croziers come to visit us.  Brinley loves to get to keep in touch with and still have a chance to play with her friend Mikenna.  We met Mikenna when she was 2 years old.  Heather had just moved to Tremonton and was looking for a babysitter.  Since I babysat Mikenna, she was at our house a lot and her and Brinley became really good friends.  Here is the one picture that I took of our fun tonight.

Even More Bubble fun - September 22, 2014

Monday - September 22, 2014

Roger's friend, Brian and his daughter, Delany came over for a little bit today.  The fabric on the ceiling of his car was starting to fall off in the back, so we spent a little time trying to decide on the best way to fix it.  I ended up gluing it for him.  I really hope that it stays and doesn't look terrible when it dries.  I keep worrying about that.  I feel like I put a little too much glue on there.  Anyway, after we fixed the fabric in the car, we sat around and visited for a little while.  I put up the bubble for Parker and Delany to play in.  They had a lot of fun.

More Bubble Fun - September 21, 2014

Sunday - September 21, 2014

We played in the bubble some more today.  Alissa's friend, Malaiyha came over and her friend, Haylie came over to play also.

Bubble fun - September 20, 2014

Saturday - September 20, 2014

Today Roger was supposed to go to Dan's house for a party.  I gummed things up for him though.  I was unsure about when the party was  and I scheduled for him to go with the missionaries to teach our neighbor at 3:00 pm.  It turns out the party was supposed to start at 5:00 pm.  I felt really bad when Roger woke up and explained that to me.  He knew he needed to go to Dan's, because Dan really wanted him to be there.  Dan invited him over a month ago and he kept telling him how important this party was to his wife.  The party was for his son's 2nd birthday.  His wife went all out for this party.  It was a big deal for her.  Roger had also agreed to help the missionaries.  So, he went with the missionaries.  He ended up not getting back until 4:30 pm.  He talked to Dan shortly after that and found out that the party started at 6:00 pm.  Dan really wanted him to come, so Roger hurried and got ready and left.  Parker was happy about that because he had really wanted to go.  He loves going to Dan's house with Roger and he loves playing with Benji.  They ended up having a lot of fun at the party.  They came home with lots of fun party favors.  Parker even had 2 dollar bills.  They had money in the pinata.  Parker enjoyed that a lot.  The girls were a little jealous.  Parker was nice and gave one of his dollars to Brinley.  He is nice to share with her.

Before roger and Parker left, we had Malaiyha and Tonya over here and we all played in the bubble.  We really love playing in our bubble.  It is too much fun!  The kids had a ton of fun playing a game they made up with a ball.

 Tiernynn doesn't get to come over and play very often because her and Parker don't get along.  Parker left with Roger to go to a birthday party for Dan's son.  since Parker was going to be gone for the rest of the night, we let Tiernynn come and play.  Brinley and Tiernynn had a dance party in the bubble.  They loved it!

 Alissa and Malaiyha had a lot of fun playing Minecraft while Tiernynn and Brinley played in the bubble.

 Tiernynn and Brinley eventually tired of their bubble dance party, so they quit and went upstairs to play barbies.  After playing that for a little while, they decided to play dress up.  First they found the hats and scarves, then they found the dresses.
