Fishing Derby

The fishing derby was last Saturday and we drove to Loveland, Colorado to enjoy the day with my sister and all of her kids. The fishing derby by our house was the same weekend and it just made sense to do it all together. All the kids had fun although they didn't win the biggest or smallest fish contest.






They were able to sit back and relax when they were too hot from the sun and Popa or my sister would take over fishing for them. Popa mostly fished for Rex (neither Miah or myself are fishing type of people) and my sister did most of the fishing for my niece who is 9 months older than Rex. What did they do while everyone was fishing for them?



Well play of course! They ran around, played on the playground, and got into as much mischief as possible but that's what they are suppose to do.







 After they were done fishing they took their fish to be measured. Like I said no one had the biggest fish or the smallest fish but they had fun and that is what really counts.








I love this picture! Popa, Daddy, and Rex walking with his fish. He looks so stinkin' cute carrying his fish! I'm sad that I missed this part. I had a Heritage Makers client to meed with and had to leave early. Since she lived in Loveland it only made sense to meet with her while we were already up there.
 I love this picture too! I could resist putting this on up to share. Thank you mom for taking such cute pictures!










After all the sitting around the kids did while fishing they all had a bunch of energy to burn off so they ran and played and chased each other. I'm always so happy to see the cousins have so much fun together. It makes my heart full of joy. This is why God created family.





So I know you are probably thinking "Why did she add this photo?" but seriously I think it's cute and shows what mom's do all day, wipe noses, or something from our kids faces, hands, feet, where ever! Yes, my son has allergies and it caused him to make "The World's Largest Snot Bubble!" OK, so I may be crazy for enjoying this picture a little too much but I have to say that I was not there when it happened and everyone was snapping pictures. This one is the best one!

The League of Incredible Vegetables: Movie Review

Picture borrowed from  Christian Film Database Another movie review! I was so thrilled when I was walking through Best Buy before Christmas and saw this  DVD sitting on the shelf. If you are a boy mom like myself you know that they love super heroes. I struggle to find age appropriated super hero movies for Monkey to watch. He loves Spiderman, Batman, Iron Man, ect. and he has not seen any of the movies/shows that go along with them. Wait...he did watch The Avengers with Daddy one day while I was out. I haven't seen that one so I can't say what I think of it for a 3 year old. Anyway, I love Veggie Tale movies! I think that they do a good job of teaching lessons to kids in a way that they understand and I love the lessons they teach! This one is great because it is about fear and how if you trust God fear can't freeze you. If you have kids, especially boys this movie is great! It helps them get the superheros they want to watch without the bad guys th...

Y3W: I hate drama!

I really consider myself and my life pretty drama free. I try my best to keep people that seek after drama at a distance because I really just don't feel like dealing with it. I have certain family that automatically causes it but you know they are family and there isn't much you can do about it but set up boundaries to not allow it to affect your daily life. Which we do! I love all my extended family but sometimes, seriously, just grow up, stop acting like the world revolves around you and get over it. You children have their own families now! Anyway! After dealing with more family drama (disclaimer: the person I'm talking about would not be reading this so if your family and you are it's not you that I'm complaining about :) then I get a nasty note from a neighbor who is just plain being rude. And I love how they waited until I left before putting the note of the door. I haven't had a car for almost 3 full months and this week my hubby finally got his motorcy...
