What have you been up to?

I get that question a lot, what have you been up to? Well since I haven't put anything on my blog for a long time, I thought I'd update on few things we have been up to the last couple of months. (these pictures are not in chronological order so keep that in mind)



We went on our first full family bike ride! Jeb got me a new bike, Japanese style I love it, and put on a seat for Gena. I was so excited, Gena loved everything except the helmet. (please ignore my funny face in this pic and messy background)

We adopted a pet. When we kicked him out of Harleys shoe that had been left outside we felt the poor guy needed a new home. Here he is down in her shoe, Harley squeled when she found him.

Here he is in his bug box. He soon afterwards made his cacoon and we await him coming out in the spring!

We surrived our first soccer season. (yes I can't believe it either I became a soccer mom!) The girls loved soccer. They both had great coaches. Harleys was Bro. Salmon from our ward who we really like. Niyah was the Sissans and they were so kind.

We had a fun Halloween. This was the first year the girls didn't want to be some form of princess. It made me kind of sad. But they made great Ninjas and Genevieve was the cutest skeleton ever.

I finally finshed this project (it only took me five months) the little aprons turned out cute.

We went on a homeschooling field trip to the planetarium. It was really fun and I like the girls meeting up with the other homeschoolers. I am trying to get more involved with the group here. yes and my girls are the two in the front facing backwards.... *sigh*

All in all we have just went about our normal everyday lives.

The girls are still the best of friends, it makes me so happy. I often find this when I check on them at night.

Oh and here is a conversation I had with Niyah:

Niyah: mom I know how it works

Me: how what works?

Niyah: How you get a husband

Me: Oh how is that?

Niyah: well when you get to that older teenager age..... how old did you say it is mom?

Me: tell your almost done with college, in your twenties, not teenager

Niyah: well when your in college and you decide you want to get one you just go outside and ask them and find one that is ....

Funny, they have to be happy and make you laugh.....

Nice, they can't be mean......

They have to love you......

and they have to go to church so I can go to the temple.....

and then you get married and have babies.

Me: Well thats about right

so there you have it all those with eligible boys the standard has been set!

I have also been very busy because this little one has become much more mobile. As you can see. Ok maybe not, since I can't get the video to load. But she is very mobile and stairs are her newest favorite toy. Busy Busy
