Twilight

Well, I went to Twilight and was pleasantly surprised with the movie. There were a few things I thought would have been different, but for a movie of a book it was great! And clever! I never have liked vampire movies or books and I love this series. Eventhough it is definantly written for a younger age group then I fit into. I was not the oldest one there I was glad to see. I also heard they bought the movie rights to the other books so I look forward to those. I don't really think that guy is gorgeous they casted for Edward but by the end of the show he'd grown on me.

toilet monster

Mack was going potty before bed last night, this is what I caught him doing.

He was lifting the lids saying "raar, raar, it's a shark mommy, the shark is going to eat me, raar." I don't know why but I busted up laughing and could not stop. The mind of a child is so funny and creative. I shouldn't encourage playing with the toilet but I can't tell him to not be imaginative.

Anything to delay bedtime.

New Beds!

A great advantage to having Wayne involved with the young men is that we can have them do service projects for us (It benefits them as well). They helped us haul in the new bunkbed set we got. Wayne found it off the trading post at work. It is hardly used and was what I was looking for, plus half the price as new. It has a desk on the end and draws and shelves. It is a little tight in their room with the crib too but eventually I'll feel like letting Tuckyr out of his crib. It is too easy not having two trying to sleep with us every other night.

Tuesday

The young men came to our house for their activity on Tuesday night. They cooked baked potatoes and played Xbox while waiting for them to cook. Great activity. It was loud having 8 boys under 16 in our house together.

Whenever I have the camera out Tuckyr starts saying "cheese" I think it was his first word beside mommy and daddy. He loves pictures. Like his chocolate lip liner?

Mack also has to be the center of attention when anyone else is.

Recent Changes

I wanted to have 3 columns but the background I like doesn't fit! So bear with me eventhough it doesn't exactly fit. I can't find that many 3 column backgrounds that I like. :( I'll keep looking but for now this will have to do.

I just got tickets to see Twilight next Friday night! I am excited to see if I will be disappointed in the show.

Happy Halloween!

Tuckyr was a cute skunk if you couldn't tell. His bum says "Little Stinker". The little Lion in Isaac Shumway, our nephew who is 10 mos. old he liked the skunk a lot and wanted to hold on, but Tuckyr wasn't so sure.

Issac, Tuckyr, Shane and Mack. Issac and Shane are Bonny's boys, she is Wayne's sister. Shane is 8 mos younger than Mack and Isaac is 7 mos younger than Tuckyr. I think they will have loads of fun together as they get older.

Happy Halloween!

I spray painted Mack's hair red for fun and Tuckyr's was to be black with a white stripe but the black got mixed in the white and he ended up looking like an old balding gray haired man.

Tuckyr, Sarah (my little sister who is 10) and Mack. They went with her around my parents neighborhood.

Tuckyr stopped dead in his tracks when he saw this and just stared at it. I think he was trying to figure out just what it was.

Shane and Mack had to play in the leaves when we got to Granny Poole's house.
