Tricycle



I have been wanting to get a tricycle for years now and just never have, but I was in Wal-Mart the other day and found this tricycle for not much Reagan has been wanting to ride with Tucker and had nothing to do it on so now if we can just figure out how to do it we will be golden.
 
P.S. You would have thought I would have got the angle with the grass in the back ground and not the weeds.


Turkey's


Like I said in the previous post I was at mom's last Saturday.  I was inside helping her with some things, and all the kids were outside playing.  All of a sudden Reagan comes flying in the house saying "Momma, Momma!" I could tell that she was nervous, so I looked out side to see the cause, and lone behold there were some tom turkeys and a hen out in mom's yard.  The kids were playing with them, and they got a little close for Reagan's comfort. 
It was fun to watch the toms protect the hen.  How they puffed up and the noises they made.  There feathers in the light were metallic and there faces were the pretest colors. I didn't know that when they got worked up that there faces change colors.  I think Tucker enjoyed it to. 

For Drake


On Saturday I went to mom's to see if there was anything she needed me to help her do to get prepared for the winter out side. She hurt her back putting some hoses last week so I wanted to make sure she didn't do that again.  We didn't get anything done because we "Waffled" at the mouth to long, she was cooking Chicken noodle soup for a family in the ward, and the kids all together are time consuming. Enjoyable, but time consuming.
Mom wanted me to get some pictures while she had the majority of her Grandkids around so she can send them to Drake.   Because of the circumstance she doesn't get to see him very much.  When she dose he has commented that he misses his "friends" (which are his cousins).  Mom got the idea to send him a photo album that she can update pictures when needed.  I guess it needed some updating.
I am glade that I am not a photographer for a living.  Theses where the two best, and they both have issues.

Suprize! Bug!

Raegan and I had just come in form mowing the lawn and was sitting down enjoying our lunch when I looked over to Raegan to tell her to eat when something caught my eye.  I saw something move and so I did a double take an found this on Reagan shoulder.  I wanted to scream but I knew that would just freak Raegan out,  so I quickly got myself together,  took my napkin,  grabbed he bug, and showed Raegan. She pulled her Gross face and said ewe.  we laughed and I let it go.  Crises averted.  

Carnival

Davis Elementary PTA had a Carnival last Friday in the lunch room.  They need a bigger lunch room.  We were crammed in there.  It was 50 cents a ticket  We got $15 dollars worth and it was more then enough.  They had a fishing booth ( it was the most popular),  a musical number's game, popcorn booth, snow cone booth, one where you aimed a ball at some holes cut into a board, balloon pop booth, guess the weight of a pumpkin ( you got to keep the pumpkin if you guess right), a face painting booth, one where you tossed balls in cups that were floating in moving water, and in the hall a ball race.  You sat on these ball's that had handles at the top and bounced down the hall and back up. 
It was very fun.   I can only remember one carnival at any of my schools, and I just remember how fun it was, and the fishing booth.
I think Tucker wants to go again if they do it again.

Breakfast and Being a Good Example

The other morning I made German Pancakes for breakfast.  Tucker always wants to help me bake so when he heard me turn on the oven he was right by my side.  I told him to watch the butter melting in the pan in the oven when I came around the corner I saw he had a little helper.  She has started to copy tucker I have explained a few times to him that he better be very carful what he dose she is always watching her big brother.
P.S. I wanted to get the picture of them communicating and watching the butter, but I was to late.

Curls


When Reagan was born she had a good amount of hair.  As she got older it thinned out.  She also had a patch in the back that wore completely down to the scull.   As her hair grew back it looked funny where it had worn down .  This last summer I trimmed it,  and when I did that I thought I had cut all her curls out.  I was quite upset.  I shouldn't have worried cause they were just fine.  As her hair has grown they returned.  The other day I was curling my hair,  and Raegan was watching me.  I could see by the look on her face she was intrigued, so I asked her if she wanted me to curl her hair.  She said her usual a ha, so away we went and this is what we ended up with.
