I am always interested to see what sort of sentences Scout writes each week.
“Give me a piece of meat…SIKE!”
Want to know who got a high five, and a pat on the back….Scout!
SIKE!
Sike!
Papa’s Porsche
Scout told Pops that he wanted a ride in his sport’s car.
So my dad cleared the way and put him in.
And then a double-buckler came running out.
When they got back, they said it was “sooooo coooool”!
Then Scout told me they went over 100 mph.
To which my dad smiled and nodded no.
(But when I was little, with a ride in my dad’s sports car, I was SURE he went over 500 mph, so I’m not so sure.)
Strong
Just a three-year-old showing off his “four-year-old muscles”!
Annie
Just two ladies off to the opening night of Annie on Broadway (Segerstrom Center).
My mom said it was the best Annie she has ever seen.
Navy said it was her funnest night, and that she loved the play.
(And my mom said she sang along with some of the songs!)
Santa Ana
Every once in a while, I love to go back to my old stomping grounds.
So when I had all of the kids in the car, and we were heading through Santa Ana, I stopped to show them my elementary school.
But before Santiago Elementary, on a whim, I turned left to where my old piano teacher lived.
I was sure she was no longer there — it has been about 25 years.
But guess who was teaching a student as we knocked?!?!
It was short, and Mrs. Bruce looks the exact same, but it was fun to see her.
And then we headed to my K-5th grade playgrounds.
They had changed quite a bit.
But the old part of the school was almost the same.
Here is Pips in front of the 5th grade rooms.
Mr. Geivet taught me in the last door on the left.
-
I might love memory lane more than the average person…but maybe because my memory lane was filled with pure happiness.
Silly Face
I was trying to find a picture of Dash where he was just smiling.
It seems that every single picture I have of Dash, he is making a silly face.
Since I couldn’t find any — I had to take this…which turned out pretty cute.
But quickly after, I decided to make a sweet video montage of all of his silly pictures that turned out so cute.
And now, every time I pick up my camera…he is aiming for another pic to be on that video…because his faces are getting sillier and sillier.
Farm Time
My kids really make up for me being the biggest animal non-lover.
Farm time is one of my kid’s favorites.
Pippi wasn’t timid one bit.
Nor was kissy-face Dash.
Between these two, I think every single guinea pig was running for their life.
But not to worry — this little one knew right where their hiding spots were.
Lamanites
Just a stinky twosome running in with their “swords”, yelling, “We are the Lamanites, coming to get you!”
Bedtime Story
Just a rad kid reading a bed time story to my kids.
The deal was that whichever kid showered, brushed and got clean undies on the fastest got to pick which book was read.
So Scout picked one of our all-time favorites.
Piggie Pie.
Our Sunday Best
You have got to love when someone takes a candid photo of us right after we get to church.
I’m bending down to probably pick up something Dash dropped.
Scout is getting a “how to tie your tie” lesson.
Navy is watching intently.
And the Pips?
Guaranteed, she is roaming unsupervised.
(Please note the girl in the background with her book open, while she sings. Embarrassingly, this was all going down after church had started.)
