Funny Sayings from the kids.

Funny Sayings

Andi: Today she was sleeping and had taken an extra long nap. I went in and was knocking on her door to wake her up. Still asleep she says, "No, Sleep" "No, De De" (Like it was Devin waking her up.

Andi: Last night she woke up crying. I went to get her and snuggle with her for a few minutes. Then I said, "It's time to go back to bed," She replies, "NOT!"

Andi: Andi was crying in bed and I went to get her. I asked her what was wrong she said, "I crying" (I guess that explains everything)

Garrett: We saw a field of sea gulls. Jeremy asked him if he wanted to run through the field. He replied, "Sure, just give me a poncho and a gun."

Garrett: While Doing homework asks, "Mom what is dam-selfie" I replied, "What" he responded, "A dam-selfie" I said bring it to me so I can see it." The paper said, "damselfly"
(which I googled and it a similar to a dragonfly"

Mom: Devin do your homework
Devin: Homework is my enemy
Garrett: You must finish your homework to defeat it.

Andi: While the store she got bored in the cart. She grabbed a a box of noodles and started banging on them. I asked, "Do you have a drum?" She replied, "I am banging the noodles"

Andi: At church while taking the sacrament. She was chanting
"Bread and water" I whispered to her, "Yeah, to remember Jesus." She replied, "Jesus loves me"

Jeremy asked, Who has the Family Home Evening Lesson. Andi yells, "ME DO ME DO!"

This morning I went in to get Andi she was talking to herself. I walk in and she is reading a book to herself I ask her if she is ready to get up she replies with disgust, "NO, I reading a book!" (Yep, that's my girl)

We played our last volleyball game on Saturday. We had a good chance to win. We had only lost one game the entire season. We ended up playing that game again and we won!! It was so exciting!


Team Members: Robin (Coach) Shaylene (Assistant Coach) Ty, Pierce, Kindle, Ashlyn, Jocelyn, Savannah, Krissa, Livvy, Kassidy and Cossette.   We were a beginner team with only two of the players having ever played before.

Garrett Selfies

This is what happens when you leave your phone in the car with your 12 year old son while you go pick up the baby from the sitter.  He did about 15 pictures as a "SURPRISE" for me!  He can be so funny sometimes.

New Carpet

So with our new flooring we also got new carpet. So out with the old and in with the new.
This is what we got rid of.  This carpet had so many stains and it was not soft any more and it was pretty flat. 
We were pretty grossed out to see all the dust under the carpet.  But I guess that is about 15 years of dust that has been accumulating there.
This is is our new carpet!! It is so pretty and so soft.  And it makes our house have a great new house smell.  It was a lot of working getting out all the things out so they could install it.  But it was a great way to spring clean.

Here you can see the new carpet, with the new flooring and the new paint!


You are only Young Once


Livvy was in a school play and had about 14 lines.  She was a school reporter.  She did an amazing job.  Her bestie Krissa was also in the play with her.

Tulips and more Tulips



For Family Night, we went to the Tulip festival again. It is so beautiful and peaceful.

















This owl had 2 baby chicks on the rock ledge.

And this is the first year I planted tulips and it is so fun to seem them grow and being excited when they open and surprised at their color.

New floor:

We decided that it was time to get new flooring. Duct tape on the floor where there were holes was just a bit too tacky and it really needed fixed. We decided to get wood laminate flooring from Home Depot and they installed it.

 BEFORE PICTURES:

Finished product.  It is so pretty!
