Secret Homemade Something (or Other)!

Here's how it works:

The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me! My choice, just for you. This offer does have some restrictions and limitations...

1- I make no guarantees that you will like what I make! But I'll try really hard.
2- It'll be done this year.
3- You have no clue what it's going to be, and neither do I, but I'm sure it'll be great :o)

The catch is that you must repost this on your blog and offer the same to the first 5 people who do the same on your blog. The first 5 people to leave a comment telling me they did so (and actually DID do so!) win an awesome homemade gift by me!

P.S. You have the right to be excited, but you also have the right to be scared... Bru ha ha!

A Day in the Park!

It was spring break for Abram and he didn't have any jobs so we decided to go to the park and have a picnic! Abram called his dad and invited him along. The girls love having Papa to play with! We fed the duck then played on the swings!

Amalee likes the little kid swings because she doesn't feel like she is going to fall off when she is going high "fast" is what she calls it!

It's the same with Maggie. She likes going high but it's more fun for her if she is on the little swings!

This was Dallin's first time on the swings. I don't think he liked it too much. Every time it went back and forth he would grunt. I do love this picture of us together! I think he has the sweetest smile! It was such a great day!

We went to Superstition Farms on a field trip with Amalee's pre-school. My kids love it! I think this is the 3rd year we have gone. And it gets better every time! This year the pre-school the day before the field trip did tie-die shirts to wear to the farm. I think they turned out great and of course the kids had a blast doing it! It was so easy too. All you do is take permant marker and put dots on the shirt in any shape you want then put a cup under the shirt with a rubber band and use an eye dropper and rubbing alcohol to spread the ink!

This is my Mom ( preschool teacher) with my girls on the hay ride. They take us around the farm to see all of the milking cows and teach us how we get milk and how many gallons one cow gives every day. I think they said 8 gallons. A cow is also pregnant 9 months.

The farm has a petting zoo and the kids get to feed goats, a donkey, and a horse! This is Maggie feeding the horse a carrot. I am so surprise that she did this because she usually runs away from any animal that comes close to her.

Doesn't Amalee look like she is having so much fun? I don't think she really liked holding the chicken. But she did like to pet the chicken!

I just love Maggie's smile! And again I'm suprised that she got this close to the chicken. She only held it long enough for us to get the picture!

Dallin even got in on the fun and tried to pet a chick! This is also the chick that Amalee liked and now she wants us to get her a chick. Dallin really liked the chick he was smiling under his hand.

After we went on the hay ride and fed and pet the animals they gave us flavored mild and of couse the girls loved it! Then we went to a class and they taught us more about the cows.

We then had homemade icecream! It was so good!

Sea World!

I have been wanting to go to Sea World since before Amalee was born. My uncle just had his first baby and was blessing her so it was the perfect excuse to go to Cali for both! I thought that my girls would have a blast and they did have lots of fun but if you ask Amalee what her favorite part was. She will say "holding the star fish!" So here are just a couple of pics from our vacation. I want to go again but without our 3 kids so we can do more without worrying about the stroller and feeding Dallin. We got a year pass for the price of a 1 day pass so I know we will be going again!

They have little kid rides but of couse our girls are so short that we had to ride with them! Both Amalee and Maggie love Elmo so of course they loved the ride!

Abram with "a-moo"( how Maggie says Shamu) and the girls!

Amalee's favorite part! Holding the starfish!
