What Happens When…

…Avery finds a partially used Carmex in the car?  Well, she rubs it all over her face and hair, then cries when you tell her she needs a bath to wash if off.  Avery’s face is usually not so shiny!

Meet Frank (our newest family member)

This is Frank, named after the famous Frank from the  movie ‘Cars’.  Nathan  “rescued” Frank from work.  After a few months of hard work, Nathan brought Frank home for the first time.  I was skeptical at first, but the kids loved him right away.  Nathan has given Frank some “bling” and enjoys riding him around the backyard.  Nathan looks forward to giving Frank a few more upgrades to make him like new!

On Friday we began our celebration of Avery’s birthday.  The family went to Leatherby’s for dinner and had a great time.  Avery’s favorite part of the whole evening was the carafe of water that had tons of ice for her to play in.  They also sang to her and she got ice cream.  Then we went home and she  opened some of her gifts.

Finally, on Sunday we celebrated with extended family.  Avery got a handmade hat from Auntie Jennie and just loves it.

Alive with Lava

For our FHE activity this past Monday we decided to make our own lava lamps.  We all thought it was fun to watch how the bubbles and food coloring responded to the oil, water and antacids.

New Friends




Dylan and Avery have made some new friends, Ryan and Lindsay. Ryan and Dylan are close in age as are Lindsay and Avery. They have many of the same interests and enjoy playing together. Today, Ryan and Lindsay were able to come and play at our house for a couple of hours. The kids had tons of fun, doing all different sorts of activities..... like playing with toys and playing Wii...
