Grandma Jane had sent some Reese's Pieces for the girls, so for a snack during our water cycle day of school I gave them these. They kept asking for more so I told them that if they could sing this song all the way through I would let them have a whole handful. They took the challenge seriously and practiced it over and over, at least Lauren did; Rissie sat on the couch doodling. I didn't really think she was paying attention but all the while as Lauren was singing Rissie was absorbing it. She surprised us all the next day when she was performing it for one of her grandparents and got it right - even the big words (mostly ;)! So as requested, here is the video of Rissie singing the Water Cycle Song. Happy Birthday, Grandma Jane!

Lagoon Day
Daddy's princess on her pony.
Gingerbread House
The kids put this together in Bear Lake for the Jenkins Annual Snowmobile trip. Our poor kids...when we unloaded the car of our suitcases Lauren asked,"Do we live HERE now?"
Where's the fire?
Jon's dad tried to change the fire alarm but with it linked to the security system the fire department was automatically contacted. So after five minutes of obnoxiously loud alarms going off the truck showed up. Oops
Date with Daddy!
Jon took Lauren to Hollywood Connection for some one on one time together. It was a hit. :)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY HANDSOME
September 17th 1978
2/27/08 Lately L. has been insisting that I call her Cinderella. Sometimes I can hear her upstairs call for CINDERELLA. in a mean "step sister" tone, then in a sweet voice will answer, "I'm coming." She failed to pick up her toys when I asked, so I tried her new name and it worked wonders.
2/29/08 So L. is watching her old favorite and after Dory explains to Marlon that memory loss runs in her family, Lauren says, "It runs in my family too, Dory."
Anna two months
Lunch on the "patio"
Lauren has a new fascination with cokewatches. What's a cokewatch you ask? It's Lauren's word for Cockroach! :)

Story came to play
These three happy girls just finished spinning in Daddy's chair. What kid doesn't LOVE that? When Story's mom came to pick her up she gave me the door prize she'd won. It was a full hour massage at a spa in town. It was HEAVENLY! Thanks Brooke.
L"s Nursery Teacher and friend Lesley
Sunday doesn't come fast enough for L. to go with her teacher to Nursery. She will scout her out in S.M. and wave to her the rest of the meeting. She loves her.

What I complete sweetheart! I LOVE her!
Holy cow, that put a HUGE smile on my face.
PRECIOUS.
Guess what song I'll be teaching my kids tomorrow! :) I love it!
So absolutely adorable! I just love her! So I guess the water cycle wasn't so tough for them to learn - - great job Becky.
I can't tell you how many times I have watched this. I have shown all my co-workers too....mostly so I can have an excuse to watch it again. I thought maybe I was biased, but they seem to think that she is pretty cute too.
Umm...we need some more Kade videos please :)
Oh my what a sweetheart! I can't wait to see her!
