School Spirit week

Reading with Danika



This book was Danika's choice. It was a good one about a small mouse with a big name. Very Danika Jane Kelly-esque.
Rock Star day

Wednesday was "Rock Star" day at the kids' school. Courtney spiked up Wyatt's hair into a fauxhawk and it was pretty impressive. G'vieve and Danika wore sparkles and bows. I didn't take a picture of them in the morning but did get these after school.  Wyatt said his hair was messed up by people touching it but I think he looks even more like a rockstar snowboarder dude with it like this. The girls looked like they stepped off a Disney kid's sitcom, sweet and smiley.

Crazy clothes day
 Can you see all the craziness in this picture. They looked so cute. Danika was the most mis-matched but Genevieve did a good job of mixing it up. Wyatt doesn't have a whole lot to work with in the "crazy clothes" department so he just wore shorts over his pants and wore a couple layers of shirts.
Meanwhile back at the house




Evie and Katie, the two blondies around here, played and ate and played some more. Kate was especially attentive to her doll that day. She fed it and napped it and carried it around inside of her shirt. Such a little mommmy!
Squirrel! Really.
 For those of you who don't know the movie "Up" the squirrel reference may not click. I have the attention of a toddler most days and there is a dog on the movie that is constantly distracted by a squirrel. So whenever I change the subject or randomly throw something out there, it's very like the "Squirrel!" exclamation of that goofy dog. In this case though there really was a squirrel in the parking lot of Sears where we picked up our...
NEW Freezer!




The freezer that we had was found for us 25 years ago by our brother-in-law Byron. It lived on the back porch of our Aloha house when Krystle was a baby and was installed in the basement here when we moved into this house almost 24 years ago.
The kids were fascinated by the big box in the back of the van and climbed around and on top of it while Jess and Harlan moved the old one out and arranged things for the new one.
It's a bit smaller than our old one but it's going to be nice to have a functioning freezer.
Moving freezers calls for a pizza party
 Six mini pizzas and two family sized plus a marvelouse salad and fresh veggies. There was a party in everyone's tummy. So yummy! So yummy!
Friday was Crazy Hair Day


Wyatt was pretty pumped about having something done for crazy hair day. We had a couple of hair color sprays that we used for a half and half weird hair-do.
His mom must have got the memo as she was waiting for the kids with crazy hair of her own! I wish I had gotten a picture of all of their expressions when they saw her. Fun.
 They are soooo two years old
These are the ultimate monkey see, monkey do pair. They keep us entertained for sure.
 School pictures have arrived!



 It's always a great day when the pictures come in. 
It's fun to compare with previous years. They are all growing up so fast.
As they should.
