My bewy huts!

For my birthday Dale took me out to do one of my favorite things; watch a movie at the movie theatre and pig out on movie theatre food. We went to see Angels and Demons and I ate a hotdog, nachos and some popcorn with a coke; not too great for my diet, but you only turn 29 once (or maybe several times for some women). When we got home the kids were already in bed, so I snuck into Andrew's room to say goodnight. He proceeded to inform me of a very interesting fact. "Mommy, I ate five pieces of pizza tonight," (Really!) "Yeah, and I had four breadsticks," (Oh Wow!) "Yes, and I had two brownies," (Holy Cow!) "Mommy," (Yes Honey?!) "My bewy kinda huts," (I can imagine so! Where did you get all this food?) "Sissy, she got it from Pizza Hot!"
Later that evening I had a brief conversation with Codi about portion control for five year olds!

Back Yard Projects

Dale and I have been working on the backyard for 4 years trying to make it kid friendly. This hill has been an ongoing concern because during the rainy season it becomes a creek and the kids just slide down it; not slip-n-slide, more like mudslide. Here are a few pictures of the process.
