Need title for this picture

So . . . . these are the grotesque lovely outfits my boys had on this morning. These are not unusual outfits for them . . just thought it was a little strange that it's 80 degrees outside and they wanted to wear their snowpants. But hey I'm a lazy laidback kinda mom so I let them choose their own clothes. Gotta give them the freedom to express themselves, right?? Here's my dilema . . I have several different titles for this picture, tell me which one you think is the best . . .
1. Suspects Apprehended in Ski Shop Theft
2. Someone Call the Fashion Police!
3. Where are Stacy & Clinton when you need them?
By the way ... I had found them in the car in these getups and they told me to quick get in cuz the cops were after them! Too cute!!!

Preschool Graduation

Colten Graduated Preschool!
The kids at Kiddie Korner Preschool had a graduation party at City Park last night. We had a huge potluck picnic. The kids put on a little presentation of songs that they had learned throughout the year. They sang and danced and goofed around. Thanks to Mrs. Elliot for a great year and congrats to all the kids . . see ya at kinder in the fall! This last picture is one of our good friends' son . . . also named Colten (aka Colten James, Colten Ripplinger and 'ten jay) He is always doing something goofy and it just warms my lil' pea pickin' heart to see him.

Another Birthday!

Happy Birthday Kaylee!!
Ten years ago, we took your picture on your very first birthday. I can't believe that this goofy girl I took a picture of this morning was ever that small!


Wow - I can't believe our Kayleegirl is 11 today. She will always be my baby though! I love this girl so much. She is like me in many different ways - spacey dreamy - and yet is her own person as well. She is kind and sensitive and is usually the peace maker. We love you Kaylee!! Hope you've had a great day!

Happy Birthday!!


Just wanted to give a shout out to my big brother (he's like 6'3" or something) - HAPPY BIRTHDAY CRAIG! We love you!! This pic is from their family Christmas card - it's all I could find.

Friends




Today one of my best friends from high school came to our house. Lindsey, Brian & Abby live in Bothell, but were visiting family in Boise so they stopped back by to see us. We had a great dinner and LOVED getting to visit them and see Abby again (sorry Linds but you know that's who we really wanted to see!) So here's some pics of Lindsey & Abby then some of them with the kids too . . gee that was super smart really dumb of me not to get one with her and I!

Well I thought I'd join the bandwagon and start me up a blog. I don't know exactly what will go on here - probably lots of my kids antics and silly stories! Maybe I'll throw in a few handstamped cards & recipes but ya just never know. Ü
