It's a.....Trumpet

We took Miss Abbey out to CHS to look at instruments for 6th band. She may not know it yet but it will be with her til she is a senior! Well we brought home a trumpet. She has already stopped blowing like a blowfish and does it with cheeks in and can eve hit a decent note every now and then. I'm impressed. And secretly happy to have an instrument in the house so I can play with it too!

Did you brush your teeth?

This question is asked easily 20 times a day at our house! Morning and night x4 until I get the answer yes from the kiddos. We brushed this morning! Emalie and Mom went to the dentist this morning while the big kids are at school. They come back in September.
I love going to the dentist. I always have and some will say I'm a freak that way. But I love clean teeth! So if you have not brushed your teeth yet... What are you waiting for? And yes you can consider this my PUblic Service Announcement for the day!

50 years and going strong

This weekend our family gathered in Pratt to celebrate this wonderful couple! Uncle Bill and Aunt Jannette celebrated 50 years of marriage. They are a wonderful example of love and commitment! We are so blessed to have them as role models! We love you both and are so happy to celebrate with you!

Hi Katie

These are our cousins Kregg, Katie and Baby Cooper. She blogs too and had the awesome Blogger appbefore me. She is going to come by and visit my blog so I wanted to make sure to say hi. Hi Katie!!!

My new Cub Scout

Z has been waiting for 2 years for this and it finally here! He joined Boy Scouts!

Emalie is back!

Our baby is growing up FAST! She has just returned from 5 days with Nana and Papa. She had way to much fun got way to spoiled and grew up way to much! I don't even think he missed us all that much. Buy we missed her BUNCHES. I think Mommy and Daddy missed her the most! She told Nana she could stay another 5 days! Where did our baby go? Right now we are having her eyes checked. By this time Abbey and Natalie were already in glasses. We shall see how this visit goes! And the verdict is.... No glasses for now!

He's not home...oh yeah I forgot

As I am cooking dinner with Natalie I keep gazing out the window seeing Jeremey's truck. A part of me still gets giddy knowing his truck is in the drive. Then I remember I drove it home today. So I will wait patiently (inserts laugh here) until he gets home. Gosh I love that man!

And then there was grass!

I love technology and a little bit of old school hard work. I got both today. After finishing the remodel we have a grass in the back yard. Thanks to old school sod and hard work! I also today found the app to be able to publish to my little hearts desire to my very neglected family blog via technology. I am a happy girl!
