soon, very soon....

I have been sooo busy recently I have gotten so behind on my blog. Please bear with me and check back soon to see what we have been up to! Stay tuned for more on scrapbook retreat 2008, summer fun, ocean vacation, a returned missionary and a partridge in a pear tree. See you soon!

Memories

Okay, so here's a little "activity" (that's what my boys are constantly saying these days... I must use that word a lot... "mom, what's an activity I can do? mom, I am done with this activity, can I have another one?" you can see I am trying to keep them busy this summer with good "activities")

So the activity of choice is memory, I was given instructions to post this and since I love to follow directions (hee, hee) here you go...

The directions are as follows:

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!

2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you. If you don't want to play on your blog, or if you don't have a blog, I'll leave my memory of you in my comments.

I love to see the temple...

I'm going there someday...

Here are some pictures of our primary temple trip last week. It's always nice to take the kids to the temple, so they can actually see what we have been learning about.

Sharing time just happened to be about temples all month... we didn't know this when we originally planned this activity last year... so it was perfect!

Anson at work...

Anson has always loved to work. He is a worker at heart.
He reminds me of this everyday when he does things like,
take apart doors and doorknobs, begs to mop the floor or clean
windows, asks to go work in the yard... there are so many ways.
Well, last week Tanner had decided to take off the training wheels
(he's the more cautious of the two...) and so we took them off.
After trying it out and leaving his bike for some other adventure,
within seconds Anson had the training wheels back on and
was riding up and down the sidewalk. It took me at least 5-10 min
to get those off the bike, but Anson, this smart little boy had
those back on... correctly might I add, in mere seconds.

After he was done riding his brother's bike around
he got to work on his tricycle... always at work!
