This is how Dad puts the kids to bed.

Mom's technique is to be all serious and business like...first we get pajama's on, next it's time to brush our teeth, then a bedtime story and finally kisses good night. But dad's technique is to get them as rowdy as possible with lots of tickling and tackling.

Next we race to see who can get PJ's on first, and then to tuck them in he has them lay down on the bed and he bounces them up and down until their brains are jiggling around in their heads, and then it's time for kisses and hugs (we can't forget those). So who's technique works best? Amazingly enough they both work very well. =0) But it sure fills my heart clear to bursting with love for my husband and those beautiful children we made.

Carnival Favorites (6 photos) from September

So I think when you click on this picture it will take you to a new site that will allow you to see the 5 other pictures that we took at Freemont Elementary's PTA fundraiser Carnival. They both looked so cute with their hair and faces painted. Erica was fearless but Sam actually suprised me and wasn't scared to try even the biggest most scary blow up rides there. It was a lot of fun and a great way to raise money for the school. Let me know if you can't see all of the pictures and I'll try to get them posted some other way.

This is us camping.

I'm experimenting here. I think I can show you some pictures that I have on my snapfish account but not actually on my computer. This single picture was a test. I am going to try a few more in a minute. Let me know if you guys can see them good enough or if it doesn't work. Thanks.
