Books

I love to read. I am trying to find some new books to read. I love Jack Weyland books. I loved Twilight series...So I would love to find some other books to read. Any suggestions???

Warm Weather

The past few days have been quite nice here and let me tell you that Claire loves it. She was blown bubbles, colored with sidewalk chalk, and she loves to throw grass clippings.

Seattle

So I finally went to Seattle. After almost four years of living here, LeeAnn finally took me for a girls weekend. We had so much fun. Thanks LeeAnn I absolutely loved it. We went to Pikes Place Market, Seattle Aquarium, Archie McPhee's, The Seattle Temple, Ye Old Curiosity Shop, IKEA and The Space Needle. I saw Safeco and Quest Fields.

Easter

This is Claire's Easter dress. She is so beautiful. She kept saying she was a princess.

The other day we colored Easter Eggs. Claire loved coloring on each one of them and then...

...She loved to put them in the color. She would just tell Grandma Lois what color she wanted it in.

Here she is all proud of her colored eggs.

Here are some of the eggs Bryan created.
A family full of Easter Eggs.

Funniest Story Ever...

Yesterday I was at Target with Claire. When we were in the parking lot (putting our shopping bags away) I witnessed the funniest event. From the picture you can see where I was parked. The two X's represent other cars. The BC represents two blue cars of the same make and model...same shade of blue also.Know to the story.

An older lady was standing at the blue car next to the other cars (marked with an X). She put her key in the lock to get in her car. I heard her say "Why isn't this working?" So I turned around to see if I could help. In that blue car were two women...one in the driver's seat and one in the passenger seat...they looked a bit scared at the fact this old lady was trying to get in the car. The woman kept trying to unlock the door. Then the lady in the driver's seat opened the door and asked if the woman needed help. This old lady then looked so confused as to why these two women were in her car. The old lady finally looked around and noticed two parking stalls down was another blue car. The old lady then said..."I'm sorry my car is over there. I guess I need to go home and go back to bed."
It was funny because this old lady was so with it and just had one of those moments. I guess the funniest part was I could totally see me trying to get into the wrong car....just like she did.

More Rhyme Time

Round Two of rhyme time. We love hearing Claire do nursery rhymes so we hope you do too.

Hey diddle, diddle, The Cat and the Fiddle, The Cow jumped over the Mood, The little Dog laughed To see such sport, And the Dish ran away With the Spoon.


Mistress Mary, quite contrary, How does your garden grow?
With silver bells and cockle shells, And pretty maids all in a row.

Time-Out

Claire doesn't like being put in Time-out. She does know when she does something wrong though. Yesterday I was on the phone and Bryan was helping get dinner ready and Claire went and sat in this chair....while doing this she said "I in time-out." I guess she gets the idea of time-out.
