Other noteworthy events

We are re-lanscaping our backyard.  Dave has been working so hard.  We are almost done . . .after pic to be posted soon.  Many weekends have been filled with these activities, so we haven't traveled as much as usual. 

Took the kids to Chuckie Cheese while Dave was out of town on business.   The kids loved it.

Jackson started Soccer.  He is liking it.

Our first bump in the road :(  Hopefully our last right?

Hallie at the AMY.  We got a pass, so we should be visiting often and having lots of art and fun!

We are still having playgroup twice a week, and Hallie is loving time with friends.  It is fun to see her learn to get along with others.  It is so fun to be with her during the day.

After I said a prayer one meal, Jackson explained that I didn't say something he needed to add.  I let hime say another prayer which went like "Heavenly Father, Help Hallie to not eat before the prayer . . . Amen"  Hallie immediately opened her eye and gave Jackson the evil eye (Yes, I was watching during the prayer) As soon as Amen was uttered, she said SHE wanted to say a prayer . . .to which Jackson retorted with fervor, "I will NOT bow to you!"  She pointed and with a firm and commanding voice, replied "You WILL bow to me!"  This continued back and forth until mom's laughter got them all laughing too.  Funny kids!
