I found Jakey in the garage today trying to sound out the word "husky." I have such a smart boy.

Earlier this week, while in a store, Jakey said to me, "Mom that sign says EXIT!"

Camping in Moon Lake was fun. As we were sleeping the first night, Kallee was dreaming and yelling that Jakey was dropping her chips, which woke up Jakey. Needless to say, Jakey and Kallee ended up sleeping with Ken and I.
We went camping to Moon Lake with Aunt Sunny, Justin, Josh and Jill. When we arrived, Kallee looked at the mountains in front of us and told her Dad, "I love the mountains, can I jump on them?"

Ken and I were sitting in the kitchen talking and the kids were outside playing. Kallee comes in followed by Jakey. Kallee said something about a mouse, Ken and I look at each other and then look at Jakey holding a dead mouse in his hand as proud as he can be! We jumped!

Today we went to Granite Park for a pony ride. When we arrived Kallee exclaimed, "Mom there is Papa and Grammy, there in the mountains, that is where they live!" (Granite Park is close to the mountains.)

Jon, Syd, and Julia have stayed with us the last two weeks while Steve and Shawnya were in Asia. We enjoyed them!

Jon learned to vacuum, fold clothes, eat different foods, and play with 3-year olds! Jon was a great help! Jakey and Kallee loved having him here because he would play with them. Jon is a great cousin (older brother)!

When Syd wasn't at school, track, or church activities she hung out here with me and the kids. Julia, Syd and I went to the "Reliant K" and "Paramore" concert! Rock on!

Julia slept, showered and sometimes would eat here. She is a busy girl!

This morning Jakey and Kallee went through the whole house calling out "Jon, Syd, Julia, where are you?" I think they liked Jon, Syd, and Julia staying with us.

Today was Jakey's and Kallee's Dance Recital. Before the recital began, the dance teachers said Jakey knew the dance the best however he would not dance in front of people. Kallee did dance but she was looking in the mirror the entire time. It was a great time!
