We've Been Having Fun

First of all, THANK YOU to Uncle Bobby and Aunt Cindy for this cute outfit for Amy. She's in love with this shirt and wants to wear it everyday. They also sent Will a cute outfit, but I forgot to take a picture of it.


Amy has been into 'pretending' the past few days. On Saturday she was a dog. She even wanted a spot drawn on her face, to make it "official," of course!


Today, after watching an Animal Planet type movie on Deer, she decided she wanted to be one. And she was ALL DAY.




I had to feed her an orange because "Deers can't peel them by themselves"


She picked a flower for me- its in her mouth

She also ate her strawberries on the floor.

Oh kids imaginations! The somewhat frustrating thing was anytime you asked her something, she wouldn't respond. When you questioned her she'd say, "Deers don't talk." Well, she has a point. Actually, I was happy about the deer- before that movie she watched one on wolves and she was howling all over the place. Trust me- a silent deer was much better than a howling wolf!!


Will goes everywhere, and today was no exception. He got away from me a few times in the yard. The dirt, combined with the strawberries snack left him quite messy. I knew I shouldn't have put these white shorts on him. (They were a hand me down, I have a rule against buying white for kids)



The kids and I were playing around on the couch yesterday. They are so cute and their laughs are infectious!

What fun. For fruit stains. Boil water. Place garment over a bowl or sink, pour the water from about a foot above the stain through the cloth. Alakazam GONE. Una taught that one to me. Works every time. Anything fruity. I agree about a quiet deer. The stains will be worse if she decides to be a snake. We had a nice birthday with Uncle Mike. Had the news about your contract and Nicole's passing her tests to also celebrate. What a blessing our family has had. Love always.

The boiling water really works! I tried it just the other day and it was great. I'm still working on the socks but I don't have a lot of hope in being successful. If I had started first before you washed and dried them I might have been ahead of the game but looking at them after soaking in clorox and biz they don't look too white. Are you sure you don't want dirty grey socks....I'll keep trying it is sure a challenge. We all celebrated over all the great news we had last week. We sure do have a lucky family. Amy sure does have a great imagination,. Love to you all, Gram
