Heat Wave for the Weekend

Ok, so Jessi thursday night decides to make cookies. We were in the other room watching TV, and all of a sudden we look at each other and listen, it was definately way to quiet. We went in the kitchen and look what we found Justin doing. He had pulled down the cookie dough and was eating it as fast as he could. We laughed pretty hard.

We had been wanting to go to the duck pond in Boise to feed the ducks and geese.(something we did a lot last year when we lived in Boise) It was a lot of fun. these are the most fearless geese you will ever meet.

Justin wanted to pet the baby geese. (click on to enlarge to see the baby geese)--->

It was a hot weekend, so we broke out the kiddie pool. and put the slide in it. Justin loved every minute of it. We had to pry him away just to eat some dinner.

Yes that is a raft turned Kiddie pool. it worked great.

Who says you can't relax in the tub in a pool. "This is the life."

After a long weekend, and no nap on sunday, he Crashed , and he crashed hard.

Random

So Jessi heard something going on in the kitchen. and this is what she caught Justin doing, all by himself. So she was sneaky and got a pic of it. oh and that sponge was on the other side of the counter. which means he had to climb up the chair, over the counter, and then back to do this. what a good little cleaner. jessi has taught him well.

MMMMMMM......... Popsicle
So whoever dosn't know yet, Justin has an obsession with the movie "Cars" . actually it more than that. he carries his "Lightning McQueen" car around from the moment he wakes to sleep. and then even wants to sleep with it. if you cant see all the stuff there is as follows: PJs, 3 cars, movies, book, socks, a cheap toy camera, and a smile that says it all.
PJ's with a couple of cars.
Justins plumbers diaper and Daddy digging in Mommy's flower bed making a race track for the cars. (shhhhh......don't tell Jessi.)

Playdoh

So we made a few things out of playdoh last week. if your can't tell what they are, there is a basketball, Lightning McQueen from Cars(Justins new obsession), a Pacifier(trying to break him of it), Justins Teddy bear, and the guy on the end is Josh(totally Jessi's doing). We had a lot of fun. Justin like smashing the playdoh.

Hobbies

Justin Counting to 6

We found that Justin really likes to play with this dart gun. So we made a game out of it. We shoot the dart while counting each one. It turned out really cute to watch. We just thought you might enjoy it too.

Family

This last weekend, Jessi's family came up and visited us in Nampa. It was really good to see them. We had a full house, Jessi's sister Candice, husband Gregg, and thier daughter Corbyn, and dog Strider, plus her little brother and sister Ashli and Dylan were all here. Here are some Pics of them, and some of the shed we're building in our backyard.

Easter 2008

We had an eventful day yesterday. Friday night we went to bed at about 2am. We woke up at 10am from there we went to a neighborhood easter egg hunt/gathering that our friends Brad and Rachel invited us to, it was really fun, the kids loved it. they got lots chocolate and plastic eggs. from there we went to the Boise Zoo where they put on an Easter egg hunt as well. After we walked around the zoo and showed Justin the animals. He got to see Tigers, a Sloth bear, a Leopard, a Zebra, Penguins and all sorts of other animals. The 4-H put on a Petting Zoo, Justin really liked that part. They had Pigmy Goats, and baby Pigmy Goats, and Bunnies to pet. They were really Cute(the baby pigmy goats that is).

When we got back to pick up our dog from the Landons house, Our friend Brad had rented a Power Rake. I don't know if any of you had ever used one of these , but it is one of the coolest things ever. (Granted you still have to rake with your hands after.) Needless to say we did his yard then ours. It gets everything up out of your grass and makes it look really healthy. I started to bag up the grass last night, and filled 8 Bags and i'm not even half way done. Any hoo, if you havn't used it I recomend it. (oh yeah, the kids loved playing in the piles if grass hahaha.)

Then we had Hamburgers and played games. All in all it was a good day.

Justin and Layton excited to find eggs.
