Meet Pecker!

Well you see we have this chicken! Mason has always always wanted a pet. The answer always always has been NO! But this time what can you do. He went on a little trip with Colton's mom for the 24th of July up north and was at the Snowflake rodeo and caught a chicken (I guess that's what they do at rodeo's for kids) and of course had to take it home. Innocently enough its name is "Pecker" because it pecks everything. Colton and my dad made a little place for Pecker to stay and today it laid and egg. A large egg. We now have a chicken named "Pecker" who lays eggs.

Need a Plumber????

Our toilet hasn't not been working right for a few days now and Colton was just about to call a plumber when I said just take it up and see if there is something in it. ie toys, rocks, silverware. And sure enough something was there. A name badge from the kids club at the mall. About the size of a debit card just block the toilet crap (literally) from going into the pipe. Just add plumber to Colton's list of this he can do!!!!! No one has confessed but Mason is out of town.

Weekend Camping

Most of you know that I am not up for taking the kids anywhere let alone by myself. But I did. Overnight camping!!!! My family had a little trip planned and Colton ended up having to work and they talked me into going. My sister and I did just they over night thing. We drove up Friday early with my sister and her family and came back Saturday before dark. The kids were actually really good. My brother had the tent set up before we got there and everyone helped keep track of the kids. I am glad I went the kids had a blast. The only problem was on the way home Ashton kept puking. Poor guy! I had to pull over a few times but at least my brother and sister were all following so they also stopped to help.

This is how Brinley camps!


Brinley and her cousin Brooklyn. They played so good.



It rained for a whole five minutes but they got just a little wet.

And a close up of Mason's dirty face.


Mason solo on the four wheeler. Very scary!



Ashton's smirk says it all. SMORES! There were no camp fires but we cooked them over charcoal. So good!

My favorite picture of them all. My sweet baby just relaxing while I was getting all the other kids ready in the morning.
