Presents for kids

Clayton had a great birthday with some sweet toys. However, his favorite toy for the last week or more, has been the instruction manual from the small legos that mom and dad got him. It first started off where he would just carry it around and look at all the pictures. Now, he cuts them out, puts a little piece of tape on them, and then hangs them from various places in the house.

I think I will just get him a newspaper for christmas!

Another Reader!

Savanah just finished her first chapter book on Tues. and since then, she's read 3 more! I have another reader! It's really cute to see her on the couch reading.

Oh Great Perfidy, By Kameron

Oh Great Perfidy, By Kameron

+++++

Once upon a time, an ugly, mean princess went out to water the flowers, "Grow!!", she screamed. Hearing the anger in her voice, the flower started to grow. It grew and grew so much. It was as tall as the castle! than night when the princess was planning her evil duties for tomorrow, she started to feel tired, so went to bed.

At 20 past twelve o'clock, the princess had a nightmare. She was feeling weird. In the dream, the princess turned into a sunflower. She woke up terrified and shivering. The princess was outside. She was wearing yellow! The princess hated wearing yellow. But, reader, she was not wearing yellow -- she was yellow! She had turned into a sunflower.

"Ah, Ah, Ah, No" the princess screamed when she found out that I'm telling you this story, but also because she's a flower. "I don't want to be some ugly thing that grows in the sand!" she exclaimed.

"After you're nice, I'll let you go" said a voice. "It's me, sunflower, for that is my name. I will teach you to be nice, soft, and kind."

Oh great Perfidy the princess wailed, for she is still a sunflower and all she can do is hope until she's nice.

The END

trying to be a photographer

Trying to take a cool picture at the park the other night. We just got our family pic taken by a lady who did a good job but I just think I could have done it just as well..... you know? I mean it's not that hard to take a picture. And it's fun. You just need a lot of money to buy a super good camera and then you can do it. Maybe someday I'll have a lot of money and will try to become a photographer. Just for fun. Hope everyone is doing well and is happy and had a good weekend. love you guys.

Dustin and BYU-I

We had a great time visiting Dustin this weekend. We toured campus, watched his intramural game, watched lost on the plasma, went to his class, porked out at Craigo's, etc, etc. It looks like he is doing really good, everyone was saying HI to him, his room was clean, and he was taking good notes. Thanks for havin' us Dust.

Kaley's Homecoming Week

Here are pictures of what Kaley wore to school this week. She says it is her favorite week of the year. In the third quarter of the homecoming football game the score was 42 to 0. Guess who had 0?? Nobody knows what the final score was cause everybody left! Her outfits were: Pirate, Spirit, Sixties, and Celebrity...she was Terri Irwin.

This Is For Kim

MySpace is for old people

A recent study on the MySpace demographics came out yesterday. You can find it here. It shows that over 50% of the MySpace users are 35 and older. This means that millions of teeny boppers are socializing with a lot of old people. That fact makes you want to be more cautious with your own kids being on MySpace.

Wait: This is Really Weird

Could this be right?
