4th of July

Took Kylee to FSY at BYU for the week. She will come home Saturday morning. She is rooming with Emmaline Scoresby. I hope they both have a fun time.

We were planning on going on a drive with Rob today but he wasn't quite finished with his jeep. So Jon took Brittany and I back home and he went to help him finish. When they were done Rob, Heather, and Sterling followed Jon home and we all went for a drive up behind the house by the towers.

When we were done with that we tried going out to eat somewhere but due to the holiday everything was closing early. We finally found Arby's open so we ate there. Had a nice evening with the Smith's.

June 19, 2022

Fathers Day

Today since my dad was out of town we didn't go visit. We spent the day with Jon.

We got him 4 shirts as a gift. The girls got up earlier than usual and helped make pancakes and homemade syrups (mine and the Chocolate).

Then we went for a drive up in the Uinta's. We drove up to the waterfalls and walked around a bit.

Goof ball Kylee

Brittany's Says.....

Quote of the day from my soon to be 10 yr old, "I don't want to be healthy! I want to be big and fat like you! Hmmm ya thanks.
B: "Dad I got permanent marker on the table. Can you clean it off before mommy sees it?" Jon: Laughing says "You are supposed to use your place mat" B: "Please come clean it off" nothing... B: Comes upstairs, "Mom dad drew on a balloon with permanent marker and got it on the table. He didn't use a place mat." Me: "Jon?" B: Runs downstairs "See dad if you don't clean it up, mommy is going to blame you!" So I guess she is figuring out new ways to get something she wants accomplished quickly?
Believing can make things come true
We were talking about how big things are and Brittany says: Mom you remind me of a Gar Fish. Jon laughs and said at least it wasn't a dragon.
So, today at the dinner table, our 8yr old, who is learning the articles of faith, says "we believe that chocolate is the yummest thing ever!!!!" hehehe must the the 14th one.
So my 8yr old, said to Shanna, "you should work at Home Depot... That way you can be the one to hand out the popcorn!!!"
"Daddy are you Santa Clause"?, I say why do you ask? she says "cause your fat like him"...hmmmm, not sure how to take that.
What does Santa drink?...Coke?
Tonight while getting ready to go to bed, Brittany said (7rs old) "daddy read me 3 stories tonight", Jon says no we usually only do 2, why should we do 3.. she says, "Cause I am CUTE and you LOVE me.... yup.. lost that one.. I think she ended up with 4.
After the first day of 2nd Grade.."You mean we get to go to school tomorrow...this day just gets better and better!"
At 7 yrs old: You know what my favorite part about nature is? The insects.
My favorite room in your house is the food storage room.
The lady has puffy legs.
Bless daddy that he will have a good day at work. Bless mommy that she will have a good day with housework, or whatever.

Kylee Says.....

July 2, 2018 I told Kylee she needs some Tennis Shoes for her tennis lesons. She asked what they were. I told her it is what we all wear. She said oh, I thought you said "tennis shoes". I said I did. She said oh I always say "tenna shoes".
July 1, 2018 Talking about the sacrament Kylee said we renew our sins when we take the sacrament. We laughed so hard.
Asked Me (Shanna) "Was the light bulb invented when you were a kid?" (age 9)
To Jon for Fathers day: Roses are red, violets are blue. I love you more than rootbeer and shoes! (age 9)
Old people are like cats, they both take lots of naps. (age 9)
Why does daddy do everything? Me: WHAT? (age 7)
We were talking about cars I had when I was younger and she asks, were tbey horse powered? So I asked what? She says, you know, like horse and buggy?
Did you have tv back in your time?
Please bless grandpa that he won't die.
So, tomorrow is Pizza day at the elementary school. In her prayers tonight our youngest prayed to have a good day at lunch with pizza! Struck me funny, oh I have taught her too well.
Green reminds me of pickles.
This isn't bacon, its pork. (We were eating canadian bacon at the time).
I want some "Chicken on a Bone" (aka Kentucky Fried Chicken)
Let's go to Honkin Donalds (aka McDonalds)
During one of the football games, while the teams were lining up to run a play, Kylee (5 yrs old) says "why do they stick their butts up in the air"?
At 5 yrs old: "Dad can I go to a hotel with Patrick? It has a pool?"
Can you let a girl spend her time in the bathroom!
Just gotta let a man be a man...
Maybe that is why my tummy is big...it is having a baby.
I am thankful for my fridge, the microwave, and my family, Brittany, mommy, daddy, and me.
I'm dancing...and so are my cheeks.
