So yesterday we decided to get out of town and go to where it was warm! So we headed down to St. George and met up with Dave's sister and 2 of her daughters and went and hiked to the Temple Quarry. Dave thought it was where they hauled out the sandstone to build the temple but it was the Lava rock they used for the foundation!
Aren't my kids soo cute!! Sure do love them!
I'm going to have to visit with my blogger friends and get some lessons on this stuff. Not very good and kinda boring don't ya think!!! :)
So here we are, summer's almost over and I haven't posted anything. To my defense, my camera is out of working order and we don't know what has happened. I do have some pictures from Brynlee's Kindergarten program and etc that I still need to get uploaded to the computer. So maybe in the days to come, before school starts, I will get them on and can do a post. So sorry for the lack of activity!!!!
So my little creative Brynlee love's trying to figure out new things to make with a cereal box. She has made a guitar out of a cereal box and just the other day she was munchin on some Apple Jacks and said "Mom, I think I'll finish these and then make a backpack out of the box." Sure enough not a half hour later she had her duck tape, some scissors, the cereal box and her little creative mind at work. She made the two straps and a hook/handle for her backpack. She then declared she was finished. Well the next morning she decided it needed a little something, so before school she took her pink and purple duck tape and proceeded to cover the whole backpack with duck tape, alternating the colors. Then she asks me if I thought kids would make fun of her if she wore it for her backpack. I told her I didn't know. So she took the plunge and wore it to school that day. We picked up her friends to take them to school and one of them jumped in the car and said "cool backpack Bryn." She got to school and the rest of the kids loved it including the teacher. Within two days one of the boys in her class showed up with his own cereal backpack with a single side strap. Pretty Cool!!! She amazes me with her creativity. Maybe she was meant to be my sisters kid. :0) To bad I won't give her up!!!!!
O. K. so here's the challenge, Dave suggested to Brynlee the other day that she ought to try and write a "book" and call it "101 Ways To Use A Cereal Box" she has the first two, anyone want to throw in some ideas? Just send them our way and I'm sure Bryn will LOVE to try them out!!!!! (P.S. My camera is on the fritz so as soon as it starts working again, I'll post some pics!!)
Today is my big 10 year old's b-day. Happy birthday Dal!!!! Can't believe ten years ago I went to my doctor's appt. with a month left and found out my Preeclampsia (sp) had turned into Ecclampsia and the doc said head on over to the hospital we're having a baby tonight!!!! Guess what? It also happened to be Dave's mom's b-day!!!! She was soooo excited cuz Dallin is her first grandson!!!!!!! They have quite the special bond and he feels pretty special to share his birthday with grandma. I'm so proud of him!!!!! He has been and is such a great kid!!!! Make's me feel soooo good when everyone tells me what a great kid he is. He does great in school and is such a sweetheart. I LOVE YOU Buddy!!!!!!!!!! Happy BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!
