Father's Day 2008

Outside fun!

Last evening I took the kids outside to play for a little while after it cooled down and before the bugs came to eat us up!! =) They had fun. Kylie's getting better at riding her bike. She can pedal it backwards but not forwards yet. They both love playing and talking with the dogs too. Korey was happy just hangin' out in the laundry basket watching everything!! If you've not figured this out - it doesn't take much to make him a happy boy!

Another box!

We received another box from Manga (what Kylie calls my mom) yesterday! It had some fun stuff they could open now and the rest has to wait until their birthdays (sadly in 9 & 10 days ~ my babies are growing up - anyway, I'll get off that before I get too emotional! LOL) Excuse Kylie's messed up hair! We had lots of interuptions this morning and didn't get to that yet! Waiting until mommy opened the box! Kylie kept saying "open box!"

She was thrilled to see inside! At this point it was just packing material! LOL

Korey was happy with his fire truck! He really could have cared less about it all but he did like the truck! That's the important things in life though, right!!

Our weekly menu

I've seen a lot of people posting their menus for the week, so I decided to try it. I might mix these up a little, depending on how that day goes! =)

Sunday ~ homemade pizza
Monday ~ Jonathan took us to Golden Corral!!
Tuesday ~ Dinner in a pinch (this is a new receipe I found but we like it, its ground beef, potatoes, green beans and tomatoes all mixed together! Very easy and a good healthy meal!)
Wednesday ~ Pancakes, Eggs, tortillas
Thursday ~ Potato Soup
Friday ~ Parmasan chicken & chessy rice & veggies
Saturday ~ BLT sandwiches (providing we can find fresh tomatoes!!)

Weekend news

We really had an uneventful weekend for once! =) It was great!! Friday night my wonderful husband, who just got off work from a 16 hour shift, met me at Walgreens to help me get all this stuff for right at $20! (He won too, since he got a new pair of sunglasses he needed for $15!) So, basically the rest of this was $5!!! The cashier was overly impressed. =) Sunday night after church, Jonathan & I made fruit smoothies! This is the end result. If I remember this is what we put in them: Bananas, Mangos, grapes, strawberries, milk and strawberry yogurt! They were so good!!! Both kids really enjoyed them too!!! They are turning into quite the fruit eaters lately...on Saturday they just about ate a whole cantaloupe by themselves! =) And Kylie's other favorite thing to eat now is tomatoes! She calls them 'maa-no'!
