randomness.

We got two new pets!  Goldie and Stripey-stripe.  After a few weeks... Stripey-stripe bit the dust.  I am horrible at taking care of goldfish.

I locked myself out of the house and had to climb through the kitchen window.  With a skirt on.  It was awesome.

Peter is such an amazing napper.  I'm nervous to switch him to his big boy bed when we move because I'm nervous he won't nap well anymore....

We have made a new rule that if the kids aren't tired and it's time for bed... they can do a job instead of going to bed.  We've learned that Jayne loves to mop the kitchen floor and Gracie loves to fold the towels.

I've been sorting through all of the kids clothes lately.  Getting rid of things we never wear or have seen better days.  This little shirt made me cry.  Then I pulled out the little boy bin and found the cutest little necktie and all was right in the world of babies again.

I made cut off jean shorts for the first time ever!  The kids love them!

I smile every time I see these little pins from my nephew on my purse.  I love them and him so much.

Meet the three other members of our family.  Cow, Cow and Cow.  Peter thinks that Tigers are cows.  We're trying to teach him otherwise.

Jayne asked me to take a picture of her.  She had toast, Cheetos, chocolate chip cookies and chocolate milk for lunch.  Yeah... I'm an awesome mom sometimes.

I had a girls night.  We watched Anne of Green Gables and ate yummy food.  It was amazing.  I need to make it a monthly tradition.

I gave a talk in Sacrament meeting... it went better than I expected!  I think I ate my weight in Peanut Butter M&Ms while I was writing it.

This girl.... I love her so.

Gracie snuck out of bed to watch Anne of Green Gables with us.  She is in love with Gilbert Blythe and making bosom friends.

This is a weekly occurrence after church.  Jeremy works so hard on Sundays.  Someone accidentally called him Bishop Wilde from the stand a few weeks ago.  It scared the daylights out of both of us.

The Bachelorette, Grapefruit Izze and Chipotle.  A happy combination.

The kids Saturday jobs last week.  It was the first week in a long time when there was no complaining whatsoever.  It was heavenly.

Maybe because I promised them Menchies if they did it without complaining....

I busted out my hot rollers one day.  I have since went out and bought a newer set because my old set is just that... old.  The humidity brings my curls back.  I love it.

I am deep into Girls Camp preparation.  We leave in ten days.  I'm so excited!

Peter got in a fight with a mud puddle and the mud puddle won.

More girls camp prep.... these are yearbook signing pens.  The theme this year is For the Strength of You University.  I'm in charge of the sophomores.

Closing costs on our house were less than we anticipated so we've been able to buy a few new things for the house.  It makes me so much more real as all of the boxes have been arriving!  Can't wait to have a little more space and a home filled with a little more nice things.
