Seven Peaks

On Tuesday we all went to Seven Peaks. It didn't start out too well. Right after we go there out tubes got stolen. Arrr that's annoying! David and I were so ticked that we were ready to pack it in! Seriously you spend $18 to rent 2 double tubes and some loser just takes them. Any way we lucked out cause I had been talking to a lady while I was watching Talin in the kiddie pool. She told me that the were leaving. So after we saw our tubes were gone I told her what had happened and asked if we could just give them the dollar return thing you get. So YEAH the day was saved. We all had a great time! Talin is a little water baby! He loves it. I had fun just watching him. Aleena is my little independent dare devil. While I was napping with Talin David let her go on the toilet bowl ride by herself. By the time we found her again she had gone it and Cave In. Luckily no one stole her. I forgot my camera so no pics... But who knows it might have got stolen too.

Fun day

Today Damen had reading like he does 4 days a week. Then we all tried hard to get some things done around the house. Our plan was to go swimming in the afternoon after Brienna and Damen's dentist apts. Aleena really wanted to go... I usually have to yell and threaten to get her to do anything. Today she was a busy little bee. I would love that to happen more often. So we went to the dentist and Damen did great. In the past he would be fine through the whole thing... shot...drilling. Then when they would start polishing he would freak out. I guess he has out grown that. YEAH! After the dentist we were going to swim but Talin was in quite a mood. So he took a nap. It all worked out for the best cause David came home and we all went together. Plus Brooklynn and Kelsie(Michelle's girls) met us there. We had a good time. Talin was a hoot! A little to brave for his mom. It was like he was just going to swim away from me! eeek! He also loved jumping to us. We had to be ready at all times cause he would just jump. I was excited cause they had some lanes set up to swim laps. So I swam a few.... Boy I am out of shape! Guess I'll have to do it more often. Everyone was pretty worn out when we got home, so we had a nice evening too.

Lucky me!!

I have already told half the people I know about this. So I guess now I'll try to tell the rest. Last Tuesday I was having one of those days... Just a dragin" all day long. At 6:00 pm Damen had a T-ball game and I hadn't even fed my kids. Hadn't even thought about dinner. So just before we left Talin fell asleep(lovely!) and Brienna stayed home with him. We went to the game. On the way home I was trying to think of something to make. But when I walked in the door I saw the table was set... HMMM Then I saw that my sweet 11 1/2 year old had made dinner. Whoo-hoo! Mac-a-roni and cheese with little fried cut up hot dogs. And some canned fruit too. That was about the best surprise ever!! I am so lucky to have such a sweet and thoughtful daughter!
