Silliness and other recent events

We've been having a lot of silly fun together lately. 

Erik decided it would be fun to try on Paul's pajama pants, don't they fit so well?

One night I had just put Erik to bed then saw this awesome Rainbow out the window.

So I ran into Erik's room and grabbed him and showed him the rainbow.

He loved seeing it, and I'm so glad I grabbed him because a few minutes later the rainbow had faded.

Jillian enjoying a chocolate chip cookie. She's been a picky eater lately. Not a fan of veggies, but a big fan of fruit and sugar, go figure. Oh well, it's just a phase, Erik did the same thing and he eats veggies now.

It's BUZZ LIGHTYEAR TO THE RESCUE!!!

Oh, wait...no that's Erik. His friend has Buzz wings so he wanted to make some too. I love seeing him lean to the side while he passes through a door with these wings on, so cute.

We went CAMPING in our BACK YARD! The kids loved the tent and Erik and Paul made it all night. We put Jillian down in her bed and I went into my bed after the rain/thunder/lightning storm hit. We'll have to try that again on a better weather weekend.

Our ward did a cake auction and I made a cake for it. I was trying out a new 'flower' idea to decorate the cake, but my frosting was too soft for it to work, so I made a polka dot cake instead. Hey, Erik liked it, so it's all good.

This past week we had a family party celebrating some, well half of our family's Birthday's
Including Mr. 1 yr old  JACK!!! He was sooo cute eating his cake, we all had a great laugh watching him.

Hannah turned 11 on the 11th!!! Woot Woot!

Thanks to my friend's savvy garage sale shopping I scored this 

DOUBLE JOGGING STROLLER  for only

$5

Amazing!!! 

If you don't know much about the movie Star Wars, you'll really be out of the loop at our house. Erik is in LOVE with all things Star Wars right now and look he's pulling Jillian into his passion.

She's learning how to fight with light-sabers, we have 3 around here now. Yeah she can hold her own.

This is Erik's scary "lightning Vader" pose. I wish he would want to be a good guy. We're pushing Yoda, but it's not sticking with him, he'd rather be Darth Vader.

A new park had a grand opening party this Saturday so we went to check it out. Bounce houses were awesome, Erik was in heaven!

Jill and I enjoyed snuggling and bracing the wind together.

whoa superman-ing it down the huge slide, who is this kid?

I love this sweet shot of Jillian on the playground. We love our girl.
