Indiana Jones to the rescue!

This is Indiana Jones! Famous archaeologist, scholar, treasure hunter, and all around good guy! He is brave and will go to the ends of the earth for his greatest discovery! He loves his mommy very much and never stops and never sleeps. Oh how his mom wishes he would sleep! But look at that smile, enough to melt your heart! I wonder where his next adventure will take him?

If you fall and break your back don't complain to me!

Paul decided to reminice back to his childhood and prove to us all that he could climb a tree. Only problem is he is almost 30 and a little just a little bigger. Ha! Well he certainly climbed up, just took a little longer getting back down, then the next day he couldn't figure out why his back and shoulders hurt. Oh, I don't know, could it have anything thing to do with proving your tarzan or trying to move a 3,000 pound boulder? Lexi also tried her climbing skills, and tried and tried, and tried. I really don't remember if she got up there or not. Jennie just resorted to playing with Annie. And they were both content with that option.

boys will be boys!

As a mother of two boys I have discovered that dirt and mud are an unavoidable part of life. My dad has a big dirt pile in his backyard and my son Emery gravitates toward any type of dirt, mud or puddle of water in his nicest shoes or clothes. This day I was prepared, I didn't dress him in anything that would matter if it got dirty... or so I thought. If you look at his cute little feet, he decided he wanted to wear his new shoes and I didn't notice this course of action until it was too late!!! Oh well, like I said unavoidable. Will also got his fun in, he climbed the rope swing, the rocks, and showed us how ripped he his, by flexing his mucsles.

Are You Nuts?!? The answer is YES!!!

This last Saturday we headed to my parents house for a visit, and ended up staying for the hernia! My dad has these 5,000 pound rocks in his backyard that he wanted to move else where and put up a retaining wall instead! Well, apparently stupididty isn't just hereditary like I thought, my dad, my husband Paul, and my brother-in-law Dallas, decided they were strong enough to move this sucker on their own. Ha, Ha, us girls just laughed through the whole ordeal, and just figured if they got hurt it was their own fault. Can I say, thats a bum view? I had to put this picture in it was the only highlight I had watching besides worrying who was going to get severly injured or killed! When they finally succeeded in placing the monster boulder we took a victory picture, then told them it needed to be moved back 2 feet! They didn't agree of course, and so we have goofy pictures to match the event that took place. I am hoping next time they will hire body builders or a tractor, because there is only so many times you can tell them they are CRAZY!

Having fun in the sun!

This weekend we all went to the Gateway with my family. We walked around just bumming, my new brother-in-law Dallas has never seen the new Gateway, thats what being in Iraq does when your away from home. It was very cold and started to warm up after a while but was still fun the same. We also went to the Planetarium, and just looked around. The boys got to stand on the moon and mars. I even met a celebrity. Isn't he hot? Can you guess who he is. yep, its Paulie and he just looks like he stepped out of a Calvin Klein add in a magazine. We had a blast and it got us out of the house. I can't wait til spring is here and its warm. I am dying to be outside!
