My Birthday..

My thoughtful husband made me a birthday cake and the kids decorated it. But this isn't just a normal birthday cake. He actually made it from scratch using, beets, carrots, squash, bananas etc... It actually was good and super healthy using mostly all veggies and fruit no sugar, it was more like a brownie though, but it still was great. He also got me a spa visit. I don't know what got into him. But the day couldn't have been better.

My boys...

Karlie..

karlie decorating...

I just can't keep up with her lately. Today I woke up and went downstairs and Karlie had woke up early (she usually comes and gets me up, she's my little alarm clock)and had decorated my whole front room with my brand new wrapping paper. She even got into the scissors and tape drawer (the little climber) and had beautiful cut out designs all over my walls and floor. When I ask her what she was doing up so early.
She said

I wanted to surprise dad with a going away party.

Karlie...Karlie....Karlie.....

Boy, everyday Karlie keeps amazing me....
Today I was doing some more never ending laundry, when I came upstairs she was covered in marker drawings, all over her body and I mean head to toe.
She told me

Mom, I have Native American skin pictures all over me, just like the ones in the History Museum we went too.

Once again, I couldn't get mad... just sign...I'm so glad we have nothing planned to go anywhere today.

Karlie cleaning

I was downstairs doing some laundry, when I heard some water. I thought it was the kitchen sink, and they were maybe water the plants outside. So I figured I would throw another load in the washer and then head up stairs to see what they were up to.
When I came up the stairs I almost died!! They had brought in the hose from outside in with the sprayer on, and the water up full blast. I saw my kitchen soaked and they had just started water down the front room and Gavins toys.
After I ran outside and turned off the water. I asked them what they were doing.

Karlie said, Just helping you clean Mom, I thought it would be faster this way, since you clean the porch like this, then you can come sooner outside and play with us.
