Family Pics!

Last week we got some family pictures done...here are a few of the kids!

I can't forget!

I have to write this down before I forget--I get sad when I know I should write something down really soon after something funny or cute happens and then I magically forget! It really ticks me off--so I am getting on it this time...yesterday evening Nick was taking the kids to his parents house to play while I was at work and when they were driving through Central by the Temple site, the chapel is looking like a chapel, anyway, Dane saw it and started cheering "the Temple is almost done! the Temple is almost done" then he sat back in his chair and he just said to himself, not real loud but loud enough for Nick to hear he said "that makes me so happy!" He was saying to himself and Nick said it just made him smile big! I think it's funny that Dane does NOT like church or primary, but he's excited about the Temple--he knows that it's important and it's exciting that we're getting one in the Gila Valley! The other funny thing I can't forget is just this morning Dane whacked Nick in the leg and asked him if it hurt. Nick told him no and Dane said with this tough look on his face, "that's cause I have a tough hand!" We laughed for a while! If anyone needs a funny little kid around to make you laugh for a while--Dane can come play with you! He'll make your day great!

Is this what I get to look forward to?

I was trying so hard to get ready fast the other day cause it was gorgeous outside and we were going on a picnic, so I put my makeup bag down in front of Paige which I didn't think was gonna be a problem, well, she's obviously smarter that she looks cause in about 30 seconds she had the lid off the mascara and this is what her face looked like...then she was mad at me for taking it from her and cleaning her off!
I picked her up and showed herself what she looked like and she said "eww" I laughed! She's got that word down good! Everything is "eww" The funny thing is that at least you can see her eyebrows with mascara on them!

My funny little Paige!

Memorial day turned out to be super fun! We went to Roosevelt Lake with the DeRusha's and we had a great time! After looking at 3 different campsites (Nick forgot to ask where they were gonna be and cell phones don't work there) and Nick saying "if they're not at this one, we're freakin goin home" We found em'!

Dane was in heaven! He loves his Lamb cousins and they all were like little fishes in the water. They would take turns in the boat and on the shore--such patient kids! Dane found a little minnow and carried it around till it was dead and then insisted we bring it home-ugh! Such a boy!

Cute cousins Dayton, Sadie, Ava, and Dane!

Dane waiting patiently for a turn on the tube! When he finally got a turn, Nick tried to teach him how to roll off and Dane thought Nick was trying to drown him! He told Nick he can't come to the lake anymore!
Hopefully we get to do this again soon--cause it was a lot of fun! Good Family, good conversation, good food, just good!
