Sentimental Sunday

Okay, so I am going to be a copy cat with this. I saw this on a friends blog and I just love it so I am going to attempt my own version of Sentimental Sunday. She always has a post on Sunday of some random pictures and tells the story behind it. These pictures were taken with my old video camera that took really bad pictures, so sorry if they are a bit blurry. Hallie is looking like she is in a daze. They are making gingerbread houses. They figured out that it went much quicker by spreading the glue with their fingers all over the house then putting the candy on. They had quite the mess, but it was fun to lick it off. That is Kayla in the picture with her. I babysat her full time for about a year so the kids were together a lot.
These two made a tiny little mud hole and Jase got so muddy. He has a big long metal rod in his hand. He must have been stirring with it. I am not sure how he got mud up to his knees. The mud is only about an inch deep. Maybe he was kneeling in it. Hallie has some mud on her, but it has dried.


This is my beautiful baby boy. I just laugh at this picture. It almost looks like I photo shopped his eyes in this but I haven't touched this picture. He looks a bit surprised. All of my kids got these big beautiful eyes. Maybe he was trying not to blink=).


This is back in our younger days. This is at our house in West Boise. Savanna is 1 in this picture. I am pregnant with Hallie. I was probably about 5 months along. I remember trying to take our picture with the remote control on the camera. It kept taking when we weren't ready. If you will notice, Savanna is holding Barney it this picture. She really loved Barney when she was little. We sang all his songs, and watched him quite often. I was pretty sick during this pregnancy for the first 3 months, and remember Barney saving us a lot. Thanks, Barney.


Jase is always a ham in front of the camera, just like his dad. He is holding Aleena in this picture. I was trying to take some of Aleena in her cute outfit, and he kept begging me to get pictures of him. It seems when I want pictures of him he isn't ready, but when I focus on someone else, he doesn't want to miss out.

Going to the Vet

Aleena doesn't like to be wrong, so she will manipulate the conversation until she is right. For example tonight she said a funny doing just that: A little background, I noticed a few cavity spots in Aleena's teeth and told her we need to go the dentist so he can fix the cavity bugs.

Aleena: "Mom, member I have to go to the Vet", smiling like she realized maybe she said that wrong but doesn't want to be wrong.
Mom: Chuckling, "Honey- not the vet, the dentist."
Aleena: "Yeah, When I got this ouwie (pulling up her bangs showing her split head scar) I had to go to the vet."
Mom: "No, you went to the Dr. for that one, A vet is a dr. for cats and dogs and other animals."
Aleena: "Remember when I was cat?" And then she dashed out of the room before we could say anything.
Brad and I just started laughing, Brad said "I can't believe you don't remember when she was a cat."

Where does she get these things?
