Memorial Day Parade

I almost forgot that we went to a parade in Mystic, CT. It was great fun, candy, fife and drums, bands, and of course fire engines. Keagyn and Brynn were great parade goers...they waved their flags the whole darn time it was the cutest thing ever!!!

Giggles and Smiles

Aury is smiling up a storm and is almost giggling too!!! She is great fun and actually rolled over yesterday for the first time, she did it twice yesterday, but nothing today, hmmmm what a tease!!!

3 Musketeers

May has been a sad month for Keagyn. Two of the 3 Musketeers have moved out of Connecticut. Keagyn will miss her two dearest friends...Kaitlyn and Eliza. (However, I am sure that their Sunbeam teacher is glad the trio is broken up) What one would do the others would follow, and they all took turns being the ring leader. But I have never seen 3 girls get along so well as these guys. We miss all of the Nelson's and the Cummings!!!

Springtime Rainshowers

The girls are playing in the rain...a common thing in the Spring out here!

Challenge Day

Brynn had Challenge Day or Field Day on May 30th, she did great, had tons of fun with all of the Kindergardeners (spelling?) playing games like the Caterpillar Roll, Bean Bag Toss, Water-balloon toss, etc. She was also in the Hat Parade.

Dogwoods

Springtime....is beautiful here in Connecticut, one of my favorite things is the pink dogwoods.

Way to long...

So it has been way too long since I have posted anything....let's get caught up!!! We have gone repelling with the Young Women, summer is officially upon us. Oh yes, and the most wonderful thing... our kitchen is almost complete. ( the picture is of the demolition part, I need to clean it up first so that I can take a perty picture to show you all) I say almost only because the trim isn't up yet and caulking still needs to be done, but it is completely functioning!!!! Yippee, see me dancing all around I am very happy!!! I finally have a dishwasher!!! Sweet nectar of life, a dishwasher!! Okay enough, enjoy the pictures.

Goofy Little Sayings by Goofy Little Girls

My sweet Keagyn has a hard time with getting to the potty before she leaks a little. Well, she leaked a little at school today, and had to change her clothes. I asked her while we were out running some errands what she thought would be a good way to make sure that she doesn't leak anymore. This was her response, and I quote, "I think we should put some tape on my bum."

Tonight at dinner we asked Brynn what kind of animal chicken came from..."Turkey!" she said.

This isn't a funny saying, but a funny thing that the girls have started doing lately...you know the show "Dancing with the Stars." Well, I being a horrible mother have let them stay up to watch it lately, and they LOVE it!!! They love it so much that they now perform their own dances and judge each others performances it is fantastic!!! Destry got it on video, so I need to learn how to put it on the blog for all to see.

I told Brynn that we were going to call American Express today and she got so excited, "Where are we going?" she said, thinking that I was calling the Polar Express.

Keagyn rode home from church today with Twalla and was sitting ever so quietly in the back. Twalla asked her what she was thinking of. Keagyn said, "President Monson, and I know that Jesus loves me." How precious!!!

Okay so today I was cutting Destry's hair and he told Keagyn that she needed to be ready to go home as soon as we were done or she would be in big trouble. Of course she said no, and that her shoes were muddy and she didn't want to put them on, finally after tears were shed she listened. The funny part is after though, she came to me and told me that Daddy had "split her heart". I've heard of your heart breaking, but splitting, hahaha!!
