Monday's Crafts...

Summer Time Blues

We aren't even a week into Summer and Braden is already bored! So I remembered this idea I heard from a friend of a friend, and decided to try it this summer to see if we can keep him from dying of boredom. Hopefully, I will remember to post pictures of our adventures on here! Here goes...

Monday- "Make Something day"- baking, crafts ect...

Tuesday- "Towel day"- Sprinklers, swimming at the gym, Tempe Beach Park ect.. (we swim twice a day already in our backyard, so this is extra)

Wednesday- "Work Day"- chore day...enough said.

Thursday- "Tutor Day"- work on his writing, letters and numbers and other school-ish things...

Friday- "Field Trip Day"- the Zoo, Museums, the Library, Riparian Preserve and other fun places...

Hopefully this will help me remember he is a kid with a short attention span who likes to do different things, and it will be a great way to have play dates... SO, if you want to tag along, let me know!

Caryn Needs...

Got this from Steph's blog. What you do is google "your name needs" and see what it comes up with. Have fun google-ing!

Caryn Needs-

1.Caryn needs to remember that it rains on the rich and poor alike. (heck, I am just happy when it rains at all, unless I just washed my car)

2.Caryn needs your help. ( I do, really. I need to learn how to add about 5 hours to my day so I can get everything done I want to)

3. Caryn needs to ship a box that is 14in high, 12 inches long, and 24 inches long. (I have no idea what is in that box, or where it is going, but it had better get there on time!)

4. Caryn needs her eyes tested she has obviously been watching a different show than us (I am a pretty easy critic, but generally people don't always agree with my views --esp on reality tv and who should win!)

5. Caryn needs relief from the registrar position and would like to start training a new person sometimes before Jan. 2008. ( I mean really, between raising 2 kids, running my boutique, my calling at church, I really do need some help at the registrars office--MY PLATE IS FULL!)

And finally..

6. Caryn needs a slap because she always thinks she is right (ouch, I mean I only think that because I AM always right! ha, hopefully no one wants to smack me!)

Enjoy google-ing what you need!

Class of 2007

Kelcie graduated from Mtn. View tonight with honors. We are so proud of her. You have worked so hard to accomplish all you did this year! We will miss you when you head up to the Y, come back and visit us soon. I can't believe I will have to pick Braden up from preschool myself!

11 Years! Already???

No, we have not been married 11 years (we hit 7 next month) but we did have our first date 11 years ago today! Thanks to Nate (who thought I was someone else and started talking to me during Track my Jr Year) for inviting me along to meet his friend...
