"How Great Shall Be Your Joy": Water Fun!

Water Fun!

If you visit my sister's blog, then this will pretty much be a repeat... we got together last week and our kids had a fun time in the water! They came to our house to run through the sprinklers. We started with a little "water art." Lindsay had the kids stand against the fence and then she would squirt them with the hose. When they stepped back, it would leave an outline. Taysum, especially, had a lot of fun with that!

The big boys had fun jumping on the trampoline with a sprinkler underneath. Our tramp is getting pretty old and is starting to lose some springs. After we lost another 3 springs, we decided it probably wasn't very safe anymore! :S

We kept Hayden clear of the water, but he had a great time just enjoying being outside! (Love those little toes!)

Lindsay's kids jumped in the little pool and we just couldn't resist the cuteness of this picture!

In both these pictures, the kids did this on their own. (We didn't "arrange" them at all.) I just love it when you can catch them being cute and it's not even on purpose!

Thanks, Lindsays, for such a great time!!

What Fun!...makes me long for a "real yard"...you know, with real grass and a fence...maybe someday...until then I guess we will be thankful for our little patch of grass in the midst of a million weeds. Cute kids. I love how little Hayden is happy just watching all the action.

Here's a Thought:

The rains came down and the flowers came up!

Bailey 10/11

In the middle of church, Bailey shouts out: I hope Jesus coming!!
1/2/11

Taysum got a card from his Kindergarten Teacher, Mrs. Floy, with a picture of her on it in the mail yesterday. Today he was tacking it to his bulletin board in his room and I heard him say, "I hope my teacher love me!" It was SO sweet! 8/13/10

At the pool, I asked Baiely if she wanted to wear her flip flops in the pool and she said, "No, I wear my feet." 7/10

Ken watched as Bailey tried to put up two fingers. He said, "Are you two?" and she said, "No...Peace!! Grandpa say Peace!" 7/10

We have some silk sunflowers in a basket as a centerpiece on our table. Along with the sunflowers there are some cat tails. The other night, Taysum informed us they are not cat tails, they are hot dog flowers! 6/10

I love the way Taysum's mind works...when I can figure it out! Tonight I made him a grilled cheese sandwhich for dinner; I told him it was hot and to wait for it to cool. He got up from the table and went to a fan we had going. He stood in front of it and opened his mouth wide and breathed in. He came back to the table, sat down and "blew the air" on to his sandwich!! He repeated this several times! I guess he thought the air from the fan would be cooler! Good thinking, T!! 6/9/10

I turned on some music and Bailey said, "Let's rock it, Mommy!! Rock and Roll!" 5/10

After a toot, which he politely excused himself for, Taysum said, "I have a Stinky Pete." (Toy Story II) 4/23/10

"This is the BEST dinner ever!!" Dinner was: chicken nuggets, french fries and pineapple. 9/09

We hung a picture of the Billings Temple in our living room. The next morning when T woke up and saw it he said, "It's the temple! I can't believe my eyes!" 9/09

Mom: Taysum, is Daddy silly?
Taysum: No...Daddy's crazy!! 9/09

Some of Bailey's latest fun phrases:
"Come on, Daddy (Mommy, Taysum)! Follow me!"
"Help! Ayudame!"
"Where's Taysum? Hmmm...you see him?"
At stop lights and stop signs, "Ready, set....GO!"

"Stubby cake" How Taysum says stomachache. 7/13/09

This little conversation happened the other day while I was doing nothing in particular.
Taysum, "Mom, what are you doing? Are you crazy?"
Me, "I hope not!"
