Mother's Day!

For Mother's Day we were able to go to my cousins house for
some great BBQ!!! I had to take a picture of the beautiful cookies
Scott gave me from the best bakery in the whole world!!! I love
all the flowers around our yard...the roses are blooming everywhere,
the Calla Lillies are as tall as the kids, and the trees that were once
twigs are loaded with vibrant colors. I didn't realize how much I've
missed spring, it's so beautiful! It was a wonderful mother's day being
around the family this year. Thanks to my wonderful husband and children
for making it a great day!!!

Tulips, tulips and more tulips!!!

So, back in May we went to the tulip festival in Woodburn. To say it was beautiful would be an understatement! It was amazing! Rows and rows of tulips as far as the eye could see. On the way there Elena was asking where we were going, I explained to her what it was, and she said, "That's all, how boring!!!"Leave it to my daughter to bring out the theatrics. Once we got there, we gave her the digital camera and she just disappeared into the tulips. I think she took about

200 pictures. They were awesome pictures. Hers were better than ours. She would lay right down on the ground and aim the camera straight up the stem of the tulips, it was so cool looking. She had so much fun taking pictures that she was sad when we had to leave...so much for being so bored!!!

Kid Talk

Brooklyn, age 2
Brooklyn said her very first completely understood sentence yesterday, she said, "Mason hit me!" We couldn't be more proud!!! We we so excited about what she said, we didn't even punish Mason for it. Oh well, nobody's perfect!
Elena, age 8
When Elena and I were in Portland, we were looking through some old pictures of mine and one of them was of me with an old boyfriend. Elena became very concerned and asked, "Mom, do you like him better than you like Dad?" I thought that was pretty funny.
Mason, age 4
Mason will ask me(Scott, Darcy told me to insert my name here) something, but half the time I'm not listening so I'll ask him to repeat it. He'll answer back and say "you knooow." I was never good at reading minds, but Mason must think I have that talent!
Mason, age 4
Today Mason said he wants to go back to his friend Caleb's house, so he can have those "you know, those umm indilated small Froot Loops."
If anyone knows what the heck the word "indilated" means, please feel free to share it with us.
Mason, age 4
I know these quotes are all from him, but he's just so stinking funny! Yesterday Mason and I were sitting at the table and he was playing with my lovely flabby part of the skin under my tricep and I asked him what he was doing, and he said, "I'm holding onto your fatty parts!!!" Isn't he sweet?!?
Brooklyn, 2
Before family prayer the other night, I asked Brooklyn if she can show me how to be reverent and she folded her arms and said, "I will follow Jesus!!" Sooooo cute.
Mason, age 5
The other day when Brooklyn seemed to be crying and throwing tantrums all day Mason asked if we could "sell her?" I thought that was pretty funny. What was even funnier was the excitement in his voice when he asked.

The other day as I was doing Mason's hair, he looked up at me with very concerned eyes, and said, "Mom why do you always do a mohawk, why don't you do two horns instead!" I laughed so hard, especially since he's the one who always wants the mohawk...at the age of 5, he really knows what he wants. I can't wait to see what he comes up with as a teenager!
