Deep thoughts from Jason....

"hmmmm, what can I do today to drive my Mama crazy? Yeah, that's it....I'll
open a box of mac and cheese and throw it around the living room!! Better
yet I'll laugh, huge belly laughs the whole time. I will be so
irresistibly cute that she won't be able to get upset with me."

...and that IS pretty much how it went down. Darn kid, is just too cute to get mad at!

My little Helper....

Jason is such a good little helper! :) Always into EVERYTHING!! He especially likes to unload the dishwasher while I am loading it!! My favorite, of course! ;)
I had already put all the dishes away, when I came in the kitchen to find him examining the dishes in the cabinet. I think that bowl makes the perfect hat too! (heck, it's even dishwasher safe. bonus!!)I thought he was the cutest thing ever, so I had to snap a few pics of the sneaky little man. I love you Mr. Jason

Girls night out......

For Katie's "friend" party this year she invited Gillian and Hannah, and we took them bowling!! I lucked out and Natalie went along with me. (thank you Natalie) We had pizza, pop and ice cream.....and bowled for 2 straight hours!! The girls had a blast! It is hard to believe that my little Katie is Seven years old and next year she will be the BIG #8! Wow! I am not sure I am ready for that!

Katie's #7....

we had a very small birthday party for Katie with the Family. Grampa Ron and Grama Jenny were able to come (broken leg and all) Katie got a littlest pet shop toy, a puppy in my pocket and a new bike!! She can't wait to get out there and ride like crazy!! Happy Birthday sweet girl!! I can't believe you are 7!!

BFF's

Annie and her friend Liz were being extra crazy the other day!! Lots of silly faces and dressing up! This is just a sampling of what I found on Annie's camera! Hahahahaha, torture for when they are older! ( i so can't wait!!!!)

A new Do'

Annie has been dying to get her hair cut....so I worked it out that Annie and Liz could go together....to the Hair place that is right next door to the Quilt Shop, so that I could go with her. Liz' Mom came by with the girls and we walked down......I had to leave before Annie's cut was done, so they came back by the shop to show off their new do's. Aren't they cute!?!??! Annie is in love with her new cut....

Jason loves the dogs....

Here are a few pictures that Annie took of the dogs. The kids are so in love with them! I am not in love with puppy messes, the chewing on everything and that hay. But the kids have been doing really good with them....

Karate....

the kids have been working hard at Karate.....and loving it. They all tested and got their advanced Yellow belt. It was an exciting night, and Dad took them out for ice cream! (BONUS) Next up: orange belt.
