Moose proves grass is greener

We had a moose walk in front of our house the other night. It was a baby moose. It wandered to the side of our house and Caleb pounded the windows like crazy, trying to communicate with the odd looking beast. Caleb's pounding and the grass at the side of our house were not enough to keep the moose happy. He saw that our next door neighbor has rhubarb and meandered over to it, rudely ignoring Caleb's adorable face pressed up against the window. I guess next year we'll have to plant rhubarb at the side of our house!

A sweet hubby!

I am so grateful to my hubby for being so sweet to me on Mother's Day! He re-built our master bedroom closet for me and bought me a new camera. He looked after Caleb most of the day too! He took this picture of us yesterday afternoon. My favorite gift from Cannon was (has always been) a homemade card. He has a unique wit and insight into life...and he loves me a lot. So I always look forward to what his cards will say. They usually make me laugh and cry at the same time. He made Mom's Day great and I love him very much.

Mmmm...Mother's Day

I made myself homemade strawberry shortcake today and had it for breakfast and lunch...it was so yummy. Long live Mother's Day!!

Happy Mother's Day

My mom is an angel and I'm so lucky to be her daughter. I hope to emulate her sweetness more and more as I continue to learn and grow. Here are a few videos for you mom (Grammy)! One is from "then" and two are from "now".

Rocking and Reading


Big gulps!

Backyard Adventure Bear

I'm tickled to death that Caleb LOVES the backyard. I think this will translate into him loving the outdoors. He explored the WHOLE backyard, plowing over branches, blowing through piles of leaves, going uphill and down...having a ball the whole time! He didn't like playing in the grass in the backyard when we lived in Oregon, so I was really happy to see him not even flinch at leaves, rocks, twigs and mud!

The Fun Backyard!

Finally, a camera!

Here is a video just for gram and gramps...we'll do a video tour of the house later. The important thing was getting footage of our bear cub laughing and smiling for the grandparents! Here you go!..

Sickies

Caleb and Cannon have the flu. It has been a long weekend full of unpacking, cooking, cleaning and attending to the boys. I went to church yesterday by myself, just for Sacrament Meeting. It was nice to get out of the house just for an hour or so. It was strange not to have a baby and diaper bag and a husband in tow. Hopefully this virus will run its course quickly. Greenup is almost here and we don't want to miss it!
