Kelsey Creek

Our family (and Holms, McCullohs and Auntie Jan) headed to Kelsey Creek after church yesterday. I love to watch my kdis enjoy Sabbath afternoon outside with buddies!

The Spring Fair

The boys and I enjoyed a quick trip to the Puyallup Spring Fair. Fair food, free crafts and fun rides were the hit of the day.

Lazy Weekend at Home

Jacy and I realized last week that we didn't have any big plans for the weekend and we were THRILLED. It is so nice to schedule a nap once in awhile. We are blessed with lots of fun weekend friends and we love eating and playing with them, but this quiet weekend was a treat. So this is what we did.
Celebrated Jacy's bday with a pancake breakfast (and date night for mom and dad).
Went to church.
Napped.
Read our books.
Dyed Easter eggs.
Ate Easter eggs.
Hid Easter eggs.
Turned an old box and some blocks into a pinball machine.
Went to the Klondike Gold Museum.
Ate sushi, yakisoba and bibimbop at Uwijimai(sp?).
Splashed in some big puddles.
Ate Easter dinner with the family.
Played with new light sabers (Happy Easter from Nan).

Yellow Umbrella

Wylie does not like getting his picture taken. I have to work really hard to sneak pictures of him or convince him to pose. Apparently, all he needed to cooperate was an old umbrella he found at Bama and Papa's house. I love these new pictures of him. So precious!

That is so UGLY, it's CUTE!

I was cleaning out Todd's drawers and found a too small pair of holey jeans that were going to go into the garbage can. But wait, what can we do with an old pair of ratty pants? I left the jeans on the kitchen table yesterday and told Todd he could do whatever he wanted to with them. He first cut out two squares to make a bean bag and then decided he wanted an ugly doll. He drew a pattern and waited patiently while I cut and sewed. He added stuffing, eyes and a mouth. Viola, a special little buddy to cozy with.
