Dang wiener kids messing up my laundry! Ok not really, I actually don't mind in the least when kids come to "help." In my opinion one of the most helpful things a small child can do is to stay self occupied and in sight. Then I don't have to worry about them making another mess somewhere else. So here they are being cute. Jude even insisted that Alice get in the basket with him. What cute siblings.

Two very messy kids, but I guess that what happens when babies help babies. Cute Jude was being the best big brother and helping to feed Alice. And Alice was being the best little sister by being patient even when her brother was not doing the best job. There was also a pure "Derek Oliver" moment when Jude is hanging on the high chair.

We are always laughing about the things we never thought we would have to say. Alice and Jude were outside playing and Derek went to check on them and from the living room I hear, "JUDE! DON'T WATER YOUR SISTERS!"

A cute little Ali-bush, growing strong!

Angie and I have been having some late nights working on our robes and last night was no diffrent. This morning Alice decided to wake up bright and early. I was so tired that I plopped her out in the living room and feel asleep next to her on the couch. I should have known better, so I deserved everything I got. Alice of course ignored the toys and started in on her rain of terror. I placed her back inthe scene of the crime for pictures. First she emptied out a pack of wipes.

Then she stopped for a bite of dog food before dumping both the dog food and the dog water, leaving a giant mess.

She helped sort the recycling.

and lastly helped to clean out our shoe nook. What a busy morning!

We also have seem to forgot that we have a lake not 15 minutes away. Off we went and had such a good time. The water was that perfectly crisp temperature right before cold, yet the sun had warmed up the first 2 feet so as you swam warm and cold water would dance around you. It was so refreshing! Brian came up with a game of "chase the hat" that the boys loved. They really got into it. Someone would throw the hat and we would "swim" the boys over to catch it. The Dads would dolphin the boys around and they would laugh and laugh. We ended the day throwing rocks into the water and soaking up the st.george sun! We will be back Lake!

Our town is the coolest! They bought an old school carousel and plopped it in the middle of town for the public. At first Jude didn't want anything to do with it. The horses were pretty high even for an adult. So our first ride was on my lap. He loved it even before the first rotation was complete. We walked away for awhile and when we headed back Jude took off at a run to get another go. They play disney music, and the horses go up and down and they go around, all the colors and art are so beautiful. It is such a cute activity!

Angie and I have been busy getting ready for Harry Potter 7!!!!! We are going all out and making robes and we have been working hard! We are looking good! Angie is going to be a Gryfindor and I am being a Hufflepuff.
