Under the Sea

Tonight we went to the boys play at school. I will try and down load some truely lame pictures tomorrow. It was very cute and they all worked so hard. It was an hour long! It wrapped up a huge unit on Salt water and fresh water eco systems. Jacob had a speaking part and Douglas helped carry the bus. I wanted to get a picture of him in "the bus" but he held it where you couldn't see his face...instead of his head being in the bus "window". Oh well.

Lucy!

Here is Lucy! She is an Aussie/Lab mix. Cute as a button and about a year old. She is still very much a puppy. We are having fun training her and helping her learn good manners. It has also helped the kids sit at the table straight and always eat at the table instead of walking around. Because she follows food anywhere. So either way I win...someone will have better manners ...the dog or the kids. :)

These are pictures of Dougie's Birthday! 9 already!

Here is Maggie looking cute. She wanted to grow her bangs out. I really liked it in a barette. But alas she didn't...so I cut her bangs again. She looks so much like Aunt Bobbie!

Here is the basement...We are working on tidying up a bit. We got some cheap carpets from a local store and this is the play house cousin Shannon built out of cardboard. The kids like going down there now to play and scream. We want to hang some "curtains" over the shelves...probably shower plastic curtains so they won't get ruined if they do get wet. That will make it look alot less cluttered. Next weekend Steve is going to hang the punching bag that we got the kids for Christmas. Then the older boys will have something to do!
