Hiking on Mt. Emily
So when I find my camera that we bought 2 days before our trip I promise to update the blog. Today, since I couldn't find the camera so we have no pictures anyway, we went hiking up on Mt Emily. I love that it is so close. And I LOVE that Beckett and Brady can run and throw and hit anything and everything they feel like. Beckett carried around huge branches and hit other trees with them. He even walked almost the whole way. He did fall and got a cut on his leg which was bleeding, but the only one it seemed to bother was Emree, who was distraught sp? when she found out there was blood, and wanted to make sure he was ok. After our hike we stopped and the kids played in the creek for awhile, it was a great morning. Makes me wonder why I don't do things like that more often, it takes 10 minutes to drive up there and we were only gone for 2 hours total, hmmmm maybe we should do it everyday, then maybe the boys would stop using the girls for their punching bags..... food for thought.

Brooklyn or Emree?

Just thought you all might like to see how much Brooklyn and Emree look alike, its kind of scary actually! Especially that Emree wears all the clothes that Brooklyn used to wear, I better make sure I get the right name to the right picture in the scrapbooks...well photo albums anyway. This is Brooklyn when she was 10 months old!
First day of School!

My Pride and Joy!

Next to my kids this is my pride and joy, I love working in the garden! Chas likes it too, he doesn't have to weed! Actually he always takes care of the kids while I spend time there. It's so nice!
Funny Story 1
Well I haveto share this funny story about Brooklyn. There is a little girl in our primary who got her appendix out shortly after she was baptized and showed Brooklyn her scar, so here is Brooklyn's conversation with me the other day.
Brooklyn: "Mom I don't think I want to get baptized."
Me: "Why not?"
Brook: "It's too scary."
And I'm thinking she loves the water, what is the problem?
Me: "Whats scary about it?"
Brook: "I don't want to go to the hospital and be cut open after I am baptized."
I started laughing!!! "You think everyone has to be cut open after they get baptized?"
Brook: yes, Jenny did and she even showed me her scar.
So I had to explain to her that that was not part of getting baptized, it just happened that it was close to the same time with Jenny. I thought it was so hilarious, you never know what your kids are actually thinking!!
What a handsome boy!

Achoo!

Emree right before a sneeze~
