Why is it so hard to keep up...

I don't know why it is so hard to keep up with my blog but if I would put the things that the kids say and do out here I would be out here everyday.

One thing Camille said this past week...

She stayed with my mom on Sunday afternoon and had a new outfit on when I met her at church that evening... I must have looked at her like I didn't recognize her but she looks at me and says, "Mom, it is meeee Camille, don't you recognize me?"

Here are some Halloween photos - not the best but what I have for now.

Family Fun Days - Memorial Day Weekend

Matt had off two days for Memorial Day and went fishing in the morning he came back to me and the kids playing in Micah's frog pool so he blew up the large pool (with an air compressor).

The next day we showed Matt what Monkey Joe's was all about... He ask why we had never gone there before now - you can tell he had just as much fun as Camille did if not more!

Can you tell Matt was having a blast... Micah on the other hand would rather stand behind the pumps and have the air blow in his face.

My new plants!

A friend of mine needed to thin out some of her plants so she called to see if I wanted anything - if you don't know I love flowers and gardening (except veggie gardens - will post pictures of that disaster soon). Anyways I said, "Yes!" I thought I was going over for just a few things but here is what I got!

My hydrangea is coming back!!!

The next one is the right side of the driveway...

This is the left side...This is a ginger plant - buried a root that looked like a dead root... but here it is with six shoots coming out now.

Easter

Here's two pictures from my parent's annual egg hunt.

Camille on the hunt...

Meem showing Micah how to hunt!

30th HSB Welcome Home Ceremony

Yesterday we went to a Welcome Home ceremony for the 30th Brigade. It was at the RBC center and they had bounce house and slides, which Camille had a blast. They also had face painting. I didn't get any pictures of Matt - maybe I can get some from my dad. I think he also has one of Micah sleeping on Matt's lap.

Updated Picture... okay well updated for here...

Our last snow! Matt and Camille made a snowman and Micah crawled around and ate snow.

A Story from Camille

Camille loves for you to make up stories and tell them to her. When my friend Cheryl was here she would tell make stories up and Camille thought that was the best thing and since she hasn't wanted to read books but stories to be told to her. I have a hard time making up stories. Any way as you will read Camille has a fun time with it...

"One day, there was a great big tiger named Jack. And he would crawl and crawl and crawl. Then he found another tiger and that was Camille tiger... and they found another big big big tiger that was Poppie tiger."

So this was the story she told my dad last night - she told him some other ones but I couldn't remember those.
