10 things I did this week Nov. 5th - 12th

Tuesday Scmusday... Let just skip to Thursday and call it a week. LOL

1. I finally got my card reader fixed so that I could upload my pictures. I have this stupid fettish about not being able to post unless I have pictures. I am demented and I know it.

2. I did activity days this week and it was boring but necessary. The girls just came over and practiced a song for the primary program which was on Sunday. Then this week are taking Thanksgiving baskets to the Widows in our ward.

3. I had a SUPER COOL AWESOME FUN Girls weekend road trip. Yep again! WOO HOO! I went down to my friend Amy's house from Thursday night till Sunday night. We stayed up late, shopped till we dropped, went to Scrapbook USA, Spent more money than I am worth, ate junk, made a mess of Amy's house, slept in till like noon everyday, and just over all hung out chatting and havign fun together!

These girls ROCK! I love my UT Scrapgirls!

I drove down with Heidi. We had fun just getting time to talk. There is just noghting like a good road trip with friends. It is theraputic.

We really make a mess when we scrapbook. Seems like we haul everything but the kitchen sink on these trips.

And eafter hauling every scrapbook item we can find.. I look up and here we all are on our laptops doing digital scrapbooking. LOL

Though you can rest assured even with all the digital scrapbooking going on we still made our fair share of a mess. Look at the path of destruction that we left in Amy's Kitchen. LOL

And proof that I did get at least some regular paper scrapping done.

The only group picture we got was out in Amy's Hot Tub, in her Fabulous yard! But Emma isn't in it. We never think to get everyone at once. Dang it!

4. While in St. Geroge we went out to eat together. Our service was not the best and we finally asked for our checks.... 20 mins later we have no clue what had happened to our waitress so we find someone else to help us. She ends up getting the manager and he ends up comping our meals and giving us a $50 Gift Card to use next time we all get together. I kinda feel guilty that he gave us so much free stuff. But I also felt a lot better that he went out of the way to make a bad experiance so much better. Yea, we will for sure be going back there again.
MaryLynn and Amy at dinner

MaryLynn's cute baby girl. We went all kid free this weekend but we let Jenna come but only because she is soooooo darn cute and little. LOL You have to admit she is a doll. And she's a pretty good baby too.

5. On our way out of town Heidi, Subrina, and I stopped to take some pictures with the Red Rocks. Needless to say we got a little silly. LOL

6. While I was gone Jesse and the Kids went to lunch with his sister. They met her at her house and then loaded into the cars to go to the resturaunt. All the kids jumped into the other cars and left Jesse as chopped liver. LOL So when he got to the resturaunt they were amazed to discover that Garyn was missing. OOPS! So Jesse jumps back in the car and runs back to find poor Garyn crying on the curb.

Poor kid was in the bathroom when they left and they all thought he was in a different car with someone else. But they got him and it was all soothed out over a nice meal. LOL He did learn a few things like next time don't go stand on the curb instead grab a phone and call dads cell phone. And just for the record I have never left one of the kids behind this only happens on dad's watch. hehehehe (knock on wood)


7. This week we brought over all of our Baby kittens that my mommy cat so nicely had at my mom and dads house. Garyn has been having a blast chasing them and catchign them and sneaking them into the house and hiding them in totes. UGH! I have to keep rescuing them. He has finally understood that putting them into containers to keep them in one spot isn't such a great idea since they can't breath but he still puts them in upside down laundry baskets. And he loves to see how many he can catch and hold at once.


8. The night I got back from my trip and was putting the kids to bed Jaden tell me "Oh yea, wake me up early I have to make a mummy mask." I am like ok what is that and he tells me it needs to be paper mache' and etc. I swear boys have no clue! Does he think I am an art supply store? Well Monday morning we made a Mummy Mask the best we could with what we had in my scrapbook room. And it actually turned out pretty good. What do ya think?


9. On Tuesday I woke up feeling like I truck ran over me. I worked but got off 2 hrs early so I went upstairs and slept for the 2 hrs. And when I woke up I was tired and sick. Sore achey body, etc. I was so stinking tired. But Grandpa to the rescue said that he would come over and take Will for a bit. Little did I know that he was going to end up with Garyn after school to and I slept from 9:30 am till 3:30 pm. The sleep was great but it still took me several long tired days to start to feel better. When Will heard me on the phone with Grandpa he was so excited he ran and got dressed and waited by the back door to hear the 4 wheeler comming. Here's a picute of him eating a pop tart and waiting... you can tell by the finger prints on the door that he goes here a lot. LOL





10. Wednesday I got to go to a Stamp Camp Card Class with Heidi. We made 8 cards and it was a blast. I haven't been to a stamp thing in years. I think I am going to start going once a month with her.

Tattle Tale Tuesday

P.S. Be sure to tell her that is isn't nice to be a Tattle Tale. hahahaha

WOW up and off my butt and Photo Story Friday - Monday

Today was a pretty great day and I was actually up and off my butt which was a good thing. Some days I feel like I am such a zombie. I work until 4:30, 5 or like last night almost 6am then I sleep in and then fight with the kids about cleaning the pig-stye, and by then I want to either nap or veg or sit in my rocker on the porch and watch the kids play outside and I don't have much energy until later in the evening. I am quickly becoming a charity case which I hate and love all at the same time but that is another post entirely. For today let's just say thanks to my hubby for dragging my sorry as$ up and making me get out and go somewhere. We had a fabulous day!!!

Jesse was able to be working from home around lunch time so we loaded the kids up and headed to Taco Time for some crisp bean burritos, that we took to the park. The kids had a blast playing and the big kids roller bladed around. Garyn makes friends so easily, and within minutes of getting there he has a crowd of kids following him around the park playing with him. And little Will just tagging along pretending he IS as big as he THINKS he is. LOL It was really nice, and I am really glad I got off my butt and went. Then when we got home Jesse went back to work and the kids went out and played in the little pool that I bought them Saturday. I don't know why I do this to myself every year. I think they need a pool to get wet in. (especially this year because of having no yard yet) Then I get irritated with all the wet clothes all over the patio, the house, and the in and out all day long. Anyway they did have fun "swimming" if that is what you call it in 2 ft of water. hahahaha

And then tonight for FHE we did a last minute trip up the canyon and had tinfoil dinners. This was really fun for the kids and it was such nice weather up there. Even got a little chili as the sun was setting.

Here are the kid sitting by the fire waiting for the brickets to get hot enough to cook on.

Will was still asleep in the van at this point.

(Samantha playing the chair guitar. LOL)

Garyn just being cute


Samantha was the 1st one down to the water

Tend Setter! hahaha Does she not know that Will will follow her?

Will and Jaden on the bridge (still dry)


And here is a little Photo Story for you since I always miss Cecily's Photo Story Friday (I am off Fridays) I am cheating just a little here by being late. Who? Me? Never!

Hosted by Cecily and MamaGeek

This is Will.
He is on the river bank just playing in the dirt. Look at happy Will.
Mom says "Will, stay up here and don't get wet. It's too cold"

"K, I play dirt" Will says "No water"






This is Will way, way, down at the bottom of the river bank. Too far, for one tired, and old, fat momma, to go. He stands right on the edge of the water, NOT in the water, and he throws rocks. Good boy Will. What a good dry boy.

Do you think Will can stay on the edge?










OH NO! Look at Will go.

This is Jaden trying to catch Will as he runs giggling and screaming down the river. Look at Will go! Look at Will get very wet and very cold!

Look at Jaden fall on his butt. Look at Jaden get very wet and very cold. Poor Jaden. Poor poor helpful brother. Poor wet and cold Jaden.

What is this? This is Will.

He stands on the side of the fire and cries because he is wet and cold.

Look at Will. Sad, sad, messy, Will.

It's not fun to disobey mommy!

Poor Will, he hates when Mommy told him so.

LDOY Party Celebration of the Sun

It has been a tradition for about as long as I can remember for our family to celebrate the LDOY (as it has become to be known) Longest Day of the Year. This is another Helen-ism. She hates winter and complains all winter long about missing the sun so in June when the sun shines the longest we celebrate it in Helen style with Food and playing till the sun goes down. Some years like this one we go to a perk and some years we have done other things like go to the drive in or an outdoor pageant. (too bad the drive-in's by us are all closed) So here are some pictures of the fun!

Celebrating Sun and Summer!
LDOY 2008
Hey any excuse to get together and eat and play is a good one right?

This family comes in 3's here are the 3 11yr olds with the 3 babies that will as of Oct. all be 2 yr olds. Only a few of the sets of 3's we have.

3 of the little cousins trying to "catch a baby duck" I told them if they would hold still they might get one. Truth is I just wanted a picture. HAHAHA Tricky huh?

Will swinging with no hands and when I said "Hey, look at Will, with no hands" he pulled his little hands up to his face then pushed them out to me so I could see them and said "I have hands" LOL Now isn't that sweet? He says the cutest things some days. Should I feel bad I made him think his hands had gone missing?

One of my favorite pics of the day. My SIL and her cutie boy!

And since we are talking about the Sun this is Samantha still trying to recover from her sun burn from the cabin last weekend. She was a stinker and ran off to the pool with the cousins and forgot (more like didn't bother to take the time) to put on sunscreen. A mistake I don't think she will be making again soon. This is the worst sunburn my kids have ever had. She had blisters on her face and a huge huge blister on her shoulder. Freaked her out. Freaked me out too. I hope she doesn't have any bad permanent damage from this. OUCH! poor little fair skinned girl. And then you have my Garyn that has never had a sun burn even though he is out side all the time. People look at them and wonder if they are biological brother and sister. They are, they all are but they don't look it.

And just before leaving the park to come home I snapped a picture of Jesse's new commuter car. He is loving it. Well actually he says he like the way the van drives better but he is loving saving money at the pump and I am loving having my van back. Oh and just so you know why he needed a commuter car. It had 11 miles on it when we drove it off the lot Tuesday night. It now has 430 miles on it as of Saturday night. Yea, really! Do you think he drives too far for work? Me too.

Wordless Wednesday - Like father like son

My brother and his baby, both being silly. The perfect black mail photos. LOL

Like Father......

Like son.

Izzy the Transvest Dog

(page credits made with Memory Mixer and template from TopLine Creations)

The words here say:
Uncle Thad kept calling about us getting a new dog. I kept saying NO. He finally decided to bring the dog over. Smart! The kids loved it and the begging began. Part of the begging process was Samantha deciding it would be hers and that she would take care of it. She was very excited about her new "girl" puppy. Off we ran to Wal-Mart to get pink puppy bling bling. Well Mantha had a blast dressing up Isabella in her pink harness and pink diamond studded collar.

Until a few days later Grandpa came over and took a look at the dog. Turns out that Isabella is a HE! She had a cow and for a while decided that she didn't want him if he was not a she. After a lot of tears she finally has embraces his transvest-dogness and has decided to call him Izadore or Izzy for short. He is a mix between a Mini-Pincher and a Chihuahua so he is supposed to stay small. He is actually really cute and extremely playful. The kids love him. Mom and Dad are still not so sure about the joys or potty training an 8 week old puppy in our new house. Oh the crazy lives we lead. Welcome to the family Izzy!

The part I left out of the scrapbook page is that we told her it is just fine for a boy dog to wear pink (especially since I spend a small fortune on doggy apparel) and then when she decided that was true she got him all dressed up in transvest-dog style and we took him to the Family Memorial day BBQ. My stupid brothers made so much fun of the dog. They are MEAN!!! They told her that her dog is gay and told her that he hates pink and that he is crying because she made him wear it. I am still mad at them!! They made her cry and wouldn't just stop. She finally took the dog walked home and took off all it's clothes and almost threw it out the window. But Jada my niece went with her and was great to comfort her and tell her to just ignore them. Big Meanies picking on a 9 yr old girl and her cross dressing dog. Jesse yelled at them and they said "we didn't pick on her we made fun of the dog" whatever like that makes it ok. grrrrrrrrrrrr..... stupid brothers never grow out of picking on the girls! I don't pick on their kids and try to make them cry. But maybe I should. They are butts they use to call Jaden gay too when he was the only grandson with like 9 girl cousins and would play in the dress ups with them. See they are mean huh?

Today is my kids last day of school and tonight Samantha is having a huge Luau to celebrate. It is going to be a crazy day getting it all ready but she is so excited and I know it is going to be so much fun. She has invited like 25 girls and I know some already have plans so I am not sure hoe many we have coming but it should be a houseful. Next year Jaden gets to have the party but this year he gets to be the party slave. Wish me luck. A huge party on no sleep. It should be great. How many times will I loose it today? HAHAHA Yesterday on my 3 hrs of sleep I totally cried because Will got gum on the couch. Yeah when I am tired I cry at anything and everything. It is fabulous!


p.s. totally stole the word Transvestdog from Missy. Thanks Missy!

Mother Freaking Nature Hates Me! Friday Funny? or Freaky Friday?

Mother Nature, well she really hates us this year..... PROOF? you want Proof? ok here is your stinking proof: LOL LOL

This my beautiful mothers day gift from last year:It is now this, not so beautiful heap of metal in the front yard this year: GRRRRR!!!!!!!

After FLYING from the porch to the front yard (yard-ish area) in the nice gust of wind last week. Yeah ain't she swell? Really, Mother Nature, what did I ever do to you??

(and just for fun let's blame Nikki.. LOL LOL I am sure you did something that made mother nature mad at you so that she would blow things all over my yard. tee hee hee p.s. Nikki thinks I use my blog to blame her for thing. She is funny and very sweet.)

And how funny is this: Just to keep things fair and balanced, she also sent up a big wind gust (micro-burst) the next night and hurled Jesse's fathers day BBQ from last year across the back yard and tore off the gasket or valve and hose for the propane and it emptied the tank. Lucky for him the BBQ is still going to work we only need to get a new hose and valve. Unlike my poor swing that is totally toast!!! I am so sad about it too and just looking at these pictures of it when it wasn't dead make me want to cry all over again. Boo Hoo Me! :( And also to make matters worse a few nights later she sent a nice hefty frost (yes in dang MAY!) to freeze my garden and kill Jesse's beloved tomato plants. I am telling you the weather is very strange this year, and I am SICK of it. So today we got to re-plant the garden. And it better not freeze again! So how is that for your laugh of the week?

Friday Funny? or Freaky Friday? LOL

Grrrrr...... A fast Vent

I hate this day and I haven’t been able to get ONE thing done so what the hell ever. Being a mom is like drowing in an inch of water. It takes a while but eventually it will kill you!

It is amazing what one little boy can do with a bowl or dehydrated refried beans. UGH! only one of the 17 thousand messes he made today.

I just need to post a picture it is driving me crazy

I have 2 entry's with no picture and it is making me nuts! So here is a picture for you:

BUBBLE BOYS!

Cute huh! Yeah the kids are loving my new jetted tub. It beats the heck out of the old pink never could get it clean tub that we just left. This was going to be my Wordless Wednesday but we were busy birthing a calf. Wish turned out the be dead. It was a totally bummer!!!! UGH! This was birth and death week at our house. The momma cat (yeah Mrs fish-heads her self remember too lazy to hunt) had her kittens 5 of them and the were all dead. I told the kids that it was probably because we stressed her out moving her over to the new house. She probably went into premature labor. And my Dad's dog that thinks it lives at our house 1/2 the time, had 5 puppies. THANK GOODNESS they are all still alive and oh soooo cute. I will get pictures of those soon. And as for the calf. YUCK! And the kids were really sad because when the last calf was born our house wasn't done yet so they didn't get to see him much and he is like 8 month old now and just not that cute any more. The other cow looks prego still so we are hoping for a healthy calf from her. We may just go buy one of our own and bottle feed it. That would be fun right? LOL Well ok not fun but at least an experience anyway. We haven't bottle fed a calf for a few years. I don't think Garyn has ever been able to do that and he would love it. Now aren't you glad that my picture for the week was of some cute bubble boys and not of all the depressing dead animals.? What is it with us and the dead animals this year!? Sheesh!

Got the Crazies again and is this almost over yet??? Oh and I feel like CRAP!

I feel like I have always got the Crazies!! This has been such a crazy last few months, weeks, and days, ugh! Can someone please tell me if this moving thing is almost over yet???

THANK GOODNESS for friends and family for HELPING ME!! WOW I don't know what I would have done with out them. We have had so much help along the way. And here is a useful note for anyone that ever builds a new house. Once the construction is over and you pass the last inspection and you sign the last paper and get the "go ahead" to move in remember this: the construction is not over yet! I can't believe how many days I have spent sitting at home waiting for the people to come do this or that or hook up this or that or etc. I have felt like so torn the past few weeks. We moved the basics over to live in the new house as soon as we possible could but we still had soooooooooooooo much work to do at the old house. Only we didn't want to go move stuff from the old house we just wanted to live in the new house with out all the junk that we have accumulated over the past 13 1/2 yrs of marriage. So that was the 1st thing that made it hard the next was that we kept having to stay home for people to work on things here. And the last problem was Jesse works days and I work nights so by the time we gets home we only have enough time to haul about 1 load before we have to do dinner and I have to work. Yeah like I said I feel like I have the Crazies!!!!!!! I can't even find time to breath that is why my face is blue.

So Saturday we did the last big moving and cleaning day. My SIL Cheryl babysat my little boys and Jesse and I took Jaden and Samantha and Cheryl's daughter Anya over to the old house to clean and haul. We had to clean out the dreaded shed. UGH!!! After a while my Sister came by and helped me clean. Can I just say that she saved my life by doing this? She is amazing. No one wanted to come and help me clean because the old house has a mold problem that I have been fighting ever since we moved there. Also note if you are going to build a house and you find a rental for "6 months" and they tell you that you won't have to pay a cleaning deposit if you will do the move in cleaning since the guy that lived there was old and had let mold get into the window seals and along the heaters: RUN!!! RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN!!! Don't be naive like me and think oh ok duh I can just do that. Because the truth is that the house probably has a massive mold growing stupid problem in the winters and that you will probably be stuck there with 4 kids for more like 2 1/2 years not 6 months. OK But like I was saying my sister came and helped me clean the mold adobe and we even wore masks while doing the cleaning. See why I am hoping that Will's health gets better now that we have moved?

So we packed hauled and cleaned all day UGH! and Grrrrr. We didn't get it all done and we had planned on coming back to do the rest of it Sunday after church. Yes I am evil that way. It was a tiring day And then I worked until 1 am. They let me off an hour early because it was dead and I was dying coughing (yes still after a month) So I was up late anyway getting my Sunday stuff ready. This week was my week to teach our class (10-12 yr old girls) and My mom was out of town (having fun it the St. George sunshine) so I had to do her music for Primary. That was a treat. NOT!!!! But I did wear makeup in case you are wondering. Yeah I know you were. But I made it easy and we did name that tune and I put lots of songs with actions into the bowl because then I didn't actually have to "lead" the music. I don't really know how to lead but I can stand there and sing and do actions no problem. LOL Oh yeah and the singing was not fabulous. It never is and especially since I am coughing my head off. Also since I had a busy church day and Jesse had a busy church day with teaching his class too we thought we would give the nursery another try. Not to cool! We have great nursery leaders but they are both pregnant and having babies right now and wrestling Will is hard for them. But yesterday we had a sub and she is absolutely fabulous!!!!!!! GO AMY!!! She was doing so great with him getting him to play and to actually be friendly. But of course he knows that we are across the hall in the primary room, so he constantly tries to escape. She just keeps catching him and putting him back in. But can you even believe that the only time I went out into the hall (since I was having a coughing fit and had to get a drink) it would have to be right during one of the times that he was escaping and he saw me. UGH! It was all over then. So he got to spend the rest of the time in the big kid classes with me and daddy. Oh the joy! Yeah I know I have great timing on the being in the hall thing. DANG IT!!!

Did I mention that is was totally snowing when we woke up Sunday? WTH is up with that? Jesse made it happen. He said as we were packing the garage to the fullest of fullness Saturday "well at least the weather is finally good and we will have some time to sort and de-junk before we really need the cars back into the garage" HAHAHAHA Boy was he wrong. He shouldn't have said that. And today he broke the ice scraper trying to leave for work. HAHAHA yeah not funny but really it was funny. Another day that I am so glad to be working from home. But we didn't get any moving done Sunday and today was the last day of the month so when Jesse got home we ran over and got the last of it. Well most of it. We still have the throw away pile to take care of and 3 give away or throw away items in the house too. Anyone want an entertainment center with a TV? or a Computer Desk? or a Table? Hope they don't mind that we still have that last stuff to move. oops. Yes I totally procrastinate and push it all until the due date and this time even past it. grrrrr again. :(

And as for the rest of the day not any funner. I took Will and Myself to the Dr. oh the joy!! I have had this cough for FOREVER, they did give me antibiotics, major ones too, like 4 a day. WOW and he said I have an ear infection starting. Didn't even know that part. My ears don't even hurt just the rest of me does. So sick of being so sick can, I just say. And Will had his blood drawn AGAIN so that we can soon get to the bottom of his problems. Again hoping he feels better soon. Poor kid. If I think I am sick of being sick, I can only imagine how he feels. He doesn't even know what it feels like to not be sick because he has been like this since he was about 6 months old.

Oh yeah and then we went grocery shopping and picked up prescriptions that was a blast for sure. Will kept climbing out of the cart and trying to run away in the store and he chewed though the wrappers of 2 cheese sticks and the best part was in the check out lane I took him out of the cart because the checker lady was worried that he was going to fall because he wouldn't sit down and then when I put him out of the cart he marched straight to the candy and opened up the Rollo's and started eating them. So I had to buy those too. (didn't let him have them though because I didn't want to reward him so I HAD to eat them. hahaha yeah had to eat the yummy Rollo's. poor me)

If anyone reads this long post I will be amazed. But I don't really care because I needed to get it all out of my stupid head. If it is dead tonight at work I am totally going to make a few scrapbook pages because I need that since I am feeling so blue and I will post them too. If I make them that is. Wish me luck! I am working extra hrs tonight because of TV adds, so yeah, I get to be up until 5 am. I know you are totally jealous. LOL Hope I have something funner to write about next time, when I don't feel like crap and venting and blitching about life. I will feel so relieved when the whole move is over.

Wordless Wednesday (with some words as usual)

Wordless Wednesday (with words as usual)

and not so Wednesday but it was when I took the pictures so deal with it.

The joys of working from home. This is pictures is taken from the window of the back door. I had to get onto a training call for work yesterday and even though Will was on my lap most of the time and that I sneakily walked away about 5 times to check on him look what happened! The 2 little boys grabbed about anything they could find and threw it out the back door. You can see the horse and bunnies but there were also things like the remote controls, sippy cups, toys, a shirt, the boxes with the TV cords in them, and some other stuff too. UGH!

And WHY do they do this? Because Mom wasn't looking.

And this is why you shouldn't play pot-tag.

You know running around with pots and pans chasing each other. Come on I know you do it everyday too, just admit it. It's all fun and games until Will gets his head gashed open. It was actually pretty nasty and I should have taken him for stitches but I didn't because Jesse wasn't home yet and I didn't have a car. So he will just have to heal Ah-Natural.

Why does Will seem to be the star in my wordless Wednesdays? Maybe because there just are no words???? LOL

My favorite Easter Picts from this year

Happy Easter 2008!

So I snapped picture just before the kids attacked. I do this for every Christmas and Easter. It drives my kids nuts cuz they have to sit on the stairs and wait for my picture before they are allowed to enter the room. My mom did this I do this get over it. Besides it makes it more exciting. I sit in there and say "Oh wow wait until you see this" You know helping with the anticipation thing. It is fun to look back at these photos from each year too.

The kids waiting on the stairs for me to get my stupid pictures so that they can get their stupid candy. LOL They look so tired and they all woke up at 7:30 Notice the new addition to the family? Yes a 5th child, a furry one. Another long story from a long week. The short is this: Jesse said "When we get the house built I am getting a dog" I didn't know he meant like the same week. Oh well he is cute anyway.

The after Church, we are all dressed now Family Picture. Nope I don't have on any make-up and I had only 2 hrs of sleep. I know you are all ashamed aren't you? LOL LOL Should mention that I didn't do my hair either but thanks to Nikki and her genius scissors that wasn't the problem for today just the make up I guess. LOL Ok I will stop with the sarcasm now, really. Also again notice the fur baby. Also Nikki's fault but no scissors involved.

p.s. Am not taking the time to edit these photos. The little kids get to hunt 1st in the front yard. Here is Will loving the egg hunt. He really got it this year and was like egg crazed...... until......

Yes until he found a loaded water gun on the lawn and decided that his Easter Egg Hunt is going to be hunting the other kids and squirting them. He is cute and as a side note he isn't sick this week. WOO HOO!!! (knock on wood) Hoping he stays healthy enough for a few days so we can run his blood this week, again.So then the big kids line up for their egg hunt in the back yard.

Samantha, I just had to put this in because it is such a cute picture of her. She loves the Hannah Montana shirt the Easter Bunny brought her. Go Bunny!

My almost 16 yr old niece Sierra actually hunting. How does Helen get a teenager to hunt for eggs...............Just stuff them with money of course. Yes she is a genius too!Isn't Sierra a doll. I don't think I have seen here this excited about the hunt since she was like 4. LOL See the $$ signs in her eyes. Oh wait that is money. hehehe
And here is the Dad of that teenager acting like a kid himself riding on the worlds tiniest motorcycle. Now that my friends was funny. All the dads had to take a turn. And yes one of them did crash and was at the Dr. today with knee problems. LOL Men!

Does it kind of make you want to sing the "ne na ne nanene" song from the Wizard of OZ? You know where the Witch is on her tiny little broom. Well, It made us sing it. I didn't get a very good picture so just trust me it was funny and they look like some kind of cartoon image these big guys on the little bike that is made for like an 8 yr old.
