Mom: (laughing) "what?  why?"
Luke: "I need to tell your mother that you are not listening to me"
Mom: "what the?!"

Sigh...

When it looks like this outside...

We do alot of THIS inside!

The kids like to set up tournaments with the Wii!  It's all fun and games until your the last one picked to be on a team.  Yea...I feel like the fat kid in P.E.!  Even my sweet little Luke says, "sorry mom".  Sigh...yea it hurts!  I am sorry if I can't make the stupid car go around the track without falling off! Sheesh!  I can kick some butt at tennis, but that just ain't good enough!

Extreme Trains

Everyone knows how obsessed Luke is with Trains, but we didn't truly get it until we recorded a show on the History Channel called Extreme Trains!  It is the cutest thing EVER to watch Luke sit that still while watching these episodes.  The host of the show (Matt Brown) loved trains as a kid and grew up to work on the rail lines himself.  Luke pushes pause and tells me everything this guy says...he is glued to every word.  I came in the room the other day to fold a load of clothes and he said, "Mom this guy really knows his stuff!"  WHAT????

His favorite episodes you ask?
Steam Train
Circus Train (my favorite)
Coal Train
Bullet Train

Since we recorded it he watches it all the way through and then rewinds it slowly and watches the entire show backwards just to see the Trains go backwards.  Sigh...this kid is unique!

Are you kidding me?

After school today we took the kids to the park to enjoy this NUTTY yet amazing weather we are having here in Denver.  The kids asked if we were going again tomorrow and I said, "heck yea - it's going to be nice again!"  I love living in Denver!

She looks ILL


First off, I can't even type this without laughing!  
Ehem...while in Bama, we helped my mom out in primary by doing singing time.  I decided to do an ole classic", sticker attack"!  I made my poor pregnant sister Jenny be the target and OH how I enjoyed myself!  Thanks for being fun Jenny!
