Bunk Beds!

I have been cleaning off the sheving in my kitchen to get rid of them.


During quiet time I heard some sneaky whispering coming from the kitchen.



The kiddos claimed them as their new bunk beds!

The Mice Will Play When The Cats Away!!

The boys went with daddy to Father's and Sons Campout for 2 whole days! What did the girly's do?
Eva was such a sport and did both of our nails!  (She is getting so big!)

She is getting pretty good at painting nails!

We also made goodies for our Tea Party that we had with Sophie and Marsha!  Thanks for coming and having fun eating some yummy food!

We made Strawberry Lemonade Yogurt Scones, Chocolate Cookies dipped in white chocolate and various toppings (I forgot to take a pic of), and some yummy crackers to go with a store bought cheese ball and homemade hummus (Mmmm).  (I should have gone the extra mile and just make my own because the one I got was not very good.

I forgot to take a pic of the finished spread.  We had tons of fun watching princess movies all weekend as well.  I had a ton of fun spending some one on one time with my girly!  Love you hun!! (I will post recipes on The Delish Dish tomorrow)

Camping!

We went camping last weekend.



It was the first time that we went all by ourselves.



It was very peaceful. We went for a short hike that the kids thought took hours.



I was disappointed to have to turn around.



We all had fun though. It was a nice overnighter.

Splash Pad

We took a surprise trip to Espee Park in Chandler!



A Mormon home school group has park days each Fri and this is where it was today.



The kids had a blast and got thoroughly soaked!

The Mesa Southwest Museum

The kids love the MSWM! I try to get them to go to other ones but this is where they always want to go.



Is it because of the giant puzzles? Mmmm. . . nope.



Is it the real Gila Monster? Partially.



Is it because the get to go inside of an ole timey jail and scream, "Let me out! Let me out?!" Ding, ding! We have our winner!!



Jake especially liked shutting the door on random people and running off.



They had a blast being on TV.



Eva loves the lights in the wall that represent stars in space.

Ethan's fav was a mining tunnel that was to dark to take pictures of.

Mesa Arts Center

We went to the Mesa Arts Center's Museum.



It was fun to see the things that the kids enjoyed.



Eva liked the jewelry.



Ethan liked the pretty knife.



Jake liked a display of hanging light that he said looked like they were floating. I forgot to take a picture of.

Babies!

When I went to get feed for our chickens they had lots of babies!


My favorite were the ducks. They are fast! I wanted to pet one, but they were too fast!



The kids kept asking for a turkey. (That was a big negitory)



They also had baby chickens.
Sooo cute to see all of the fluffy little babies today!
