Yesterday, as you know from the previous post, we went on a day trip. Well, when we travel we love stopping at Goodwills and Big Lots on the way home. We spent tons of money at these two places and got some great deals. Here is the funny part:

On Sunday June 22, McKay was baptized and confirmed a member of our church, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter~Day Saints. We only had family attend and had breakfast right after the baptism. He said he felt clean. It was a very nice spiritual day. Hope you enjoy the pictures.

We harvested our first tiny crop of peas today! This is our first year growing peas and are shocked that we actually have a little mess of them. Here is a picture, of course, you knew I would have one……

Our family eats about 3 whole watermelons a week, my kids have now come up with creative ways to use the rinds.
Hunter was thirsty! It’s Hunter’s cup.
Who knew that watermelon could be so versatile?

Our kids are little fish. They love to swim. Grant is really learning fast. If I can teach my kids to save money, love church, ride a bike and swim then I will feel like I have accomplished a lot! Here’s some pictures from the pool, we have been going about 3 times a week.

We had some friends over to tie~dye t-shirts. Surprisingly it was a lot of fun, the kids got along great! I think the shirts turned out pretty cool. Grant has found a friend that knows about Star Wars as much as he does. In the picture you will notice Grant’s new friend, Colby, with the lightsabers. [...]
Move over Steve Spangler

We love Steve Spangler, he is the Science guy that we learn tons from. He has the mentos and diet coke experiment that we love. One night, Roger decided to use Benson’s mouth in the experiment. It didn’t create a geyser but it did fizz and bubble in Benson’s mouth. Steve Spangler would be proud…..

Tonight, after weeks of listening to Benson croak into a microphone, Alex beat on drums and pull his leg muscle, Steve moan and complain that he can’t get a girlfriend inbetween songs, and Roger jam out on his guitar……Rock Band was defeated! Here is a picture of the band that rocked out night after night [...]
