Puzzles

Connor still is a big fan of puzzles.

The things they say

Quinn

He wished he could grow up on a farm -- when he saw a tractor --
(apparently Scott hasn't told the story about getting up at 4:30 am often enough!)

Talking about camping: You don't have to take a bath or anything. It's great!

You know, there's First Presidency, Stake Presidency, Bishopric.... So, what are we --- the "deaconbric"?

"I want to do something fun like dodgeball."

Connor was out getting warm on the fort the other day. He said he was warming up like a snake. I offered to bring him a book. Sure, bring me like atlas of the world or a dictionary, maybe just a big book--I don't really care.

Tanner wants to do something fun like miler day (when they run laps at school).


Allison was putting her shoes on the wrong foot: I just like putting them on zig zag.

Allison talking about me giving her some cold medicine: You know you can give me 6 ounces, because that's how much dad gave me.

Allison talking about the tooth Scott was pulling out (her 2nd bottom baby tooth!): We have to tell Christine. We have to call Christine. She'll bring a treat over.

We must have been talking about callings, like Church callings, and Allison chimed in that she had a calling not to bug for tomorrow and the next day and the next day.

"Quicksand"

Would anyone like to help me clean these boys up when they're done? Anyone?
Yes, this is in our backyard. What is it, Sara? Weird.

7:30 am first day of Spring Break






Quinn has braces now!!!

Sunday jewelry


On Sunday, we pulled out some beads from Christine. Allison and Tanner made some pretty cool things.

We pulled out the crafty stuff to do things while we listened to "The Cay" book that Quinn will take an AR test on.

It was a nice Sunday afternoon. It just feels good when you don't have school the next day, doesn't it?

Dinosaur Valley State Park




Connor's soccer game was canceled on Saturday, the first day of Spring Break '09. So we packed up for a day trip to Dinosaur Valley State Park. We missed Joshua, as we passed the town of Joshua on the way. We remember our trip with Melissa and boys and how it started to rain that day. We still miss Melissa and boys.

That evening, we spent some time with Sophie (she can walk!), Eldon and Stephanie. Lyle, Zaret and Teancum came over too. Lyle came over twice. He had to go to work, but then they sent him home for 3 more hours! It was a neat surprise!

Domino Tan

Tanner is going to "timber" his dominoes.
He is surprised at just how fast they go down!
