Up's and Down's

Around here we are sometimes happy and sometimes sad, almost daily we go on this emotional roller coaster. But that's life right? It's full of ups and downs:

UP

I like helping you unpack and being in the suitcase, ready for our next trip.

DOWN

No, I changed my mind! I don't wanna go!

But she fits so nicely :)

 UP

I like helping you with dishes, 

especially when I can build my own towers for Spiderman to climb and swing from!

 DOWN

I don't wanna eat my dinner! Ever! Why do you people keep trying to feed me dinner, I never like it.

Mom's even down, resting from the dinner drama.

 UP

Erik's asleep!

In the UPRIGHT position. 

Wow must have been tired.

 DOWN

 Too bad it's 5:30pm and bedtime is supposed to be in 2 1/2 hours. grrr 

 UP and DOWN

Yes Jillian's bum is up and her head is down. 

I think this is so cute, don't know why she started it or where she got it from, it's just so funny I had to get a picture! And the sweetie pie even did it when I asked so I could catch the picture. :)

 Well that's enough ups and downs for now. Let's talk about St. Patrick's Day!
We had a fun day, started with Lucky Charms-a magically delicious breakfast!

 Then Jillian and I went to a Stake Women's conference, wonderful! And Paul and Erik went to a Scout training. Then we met back up and started working on our grass-it needs some TLC. So we headed to Zamzow's for some professional help to green-up our lawn. It was a lot of hard work, our arms were tired, but the weather co-operated and hopefully in a week or so we'll get some grass to grow!

 We all sported our green apparel yesterday too.

Aren't we Lucky to have such cute kids! I sure love them despite the ups and downs.

PS Erik made that shamrock necklace at the pre-school he'll be attending this fall. We stopped in to check the place out on Friday and the teacher had this project for him to make with the other kids. We both like the preschool and are very excited for it to start in the fall!
