      • And It Was Summer, Warm, Beautiful, Summer.

Did you really just say that?!

"When I grow up, I want to be a marine biologist," said Matthew.
"When I grow up, I want to go to the ball," was Rae Rae's reply. Spring 2015

"Mommy, lightning means the night monsters are coming." Rachael, spring 2015

"Princess, pretect me!" Matthew going into panic attack from the chickens. He spends the day wrestling brothers, his puppy, and bulls (in his mind), riding his pony, chasing cows,but he just can't handle our chicken herd. Matthew Spring 2013


Look At This! (Matthew jumps on my bed)
It is fun and dangerous!
Why did you do that? (I ask)
Because I am crazy!
Matthew Fall 2012

Look at this! This is fanstastic! (refering to a book, I think?)
Matthew Fall 2012

Maybe you boys should start wearing deoderant (my suggestion)
I will start wearing deoderant when I start to get the hairy armpits! That's when you start wearing deoderant. (Nice he has it all figured out. No need for akward conversation there!)
Jared Fall 2012

This Halloween I am going to dress up like a Democrat.
Jared 2012

What if instead of boys' voices changing their faces changed and it happened in the middle of talking in church?!
Jared Summer 2012


Mom, is Dad at Bonneville high?
Yes.
Then I just blew him a kiss and it flew through the air and it landed on his cheekeo!
-Emma 4/2011


Nothing was said, but the look on the faces of Emma and Jared spoke volumes. After looking for them all throughout the house, I found them in the basement bathroom, Jared on the toilet, Emma on a little chair right in front of him. Both had spoons in their hands, ice-cream smeared all over their faces, and a nearly empty ice-cream carton on Jared's bare legs. YUCK!!!
2/2011


"I like your haircut, Daddy-O. It looks like Matthews, but it actually looks more like Pop's"
Emma 2/2011


"Mom, if I were a mom named Sue, I would want to marry Dadeo, too."
Spring 2011 Emma.

"Dang it!" exlaimed Emma.
"Where did you learn that word?" asked Sue
"Grandpa."
"Grandpa taught you that word?"
"Yes, he said, 'Emma, say dangit!' and I said 'No!' and he said, 'say it NOW!' and I said, 'dangit' and he said 'thankyou.'"
Having an vocally talented two-year old really does have its perks. Thanks, Grandpa . . . :) 5/10

I'd like to order two boy hamburgers with a happy meal," Michael said to the McDonald's worker. Do you think he's tired? How do you tell the difference between a boy hamburger and a girl hamburger?! 5/10

". . . and thankyou that I am the boss of the world." Emma's prayer, 5/10

"Jared won't listen to the boss of the world!" Emma pouting after Jared wouldn't do what she wanted. 5/10

"Emma, you're as solid as a rock," Daddy said, after cuddling her.
"Daddy, you're as solid as a roll." Emma's reply, with a twinkle in her blue eyes! 5/10

Last night we were playing with cousins at Aunt Caroline and Uncle Bill's. They are some of our favorite people, but Emma told me that if we break their cups, Uncle Bill would kill us. I don't know why she embraces such violent consequences! 4/10

Emma continues to remind me that she is in charge, is the boss, and just yesterday told me that daddy is a princess! 3/10

For all of you Aggie fans out there--Bill Sproat is a famous HERD member and quite a public figure. (You can you-tube his name and learn more). Well, the other day, Jared casually walked by me and said, "Hi, Bill." I'm still wondering if lapband surgery is the way to go . . . 3/10

While attending Sacrament meeting in Harper Ward, we were treated to Grandpa's sweet testimony. As he was speaking, Emma leaned over and whisper-yelled to her cousins and brothers down the isle, "Listen to Grandpa or you will DIE!"
Maybe our punishments are too strict . . . !!! March, 2010

Maybe this should be called, "did Jared just say that?"! Well, here's a gross one, but it's had me laughing all day. This morning I was trying to convince him to wipe himself. He looked at me with a concerned Jared look and said, "I will wipe myself only on Mondays." I then explained that his cousins his age wipe themselves and he remarked, "actually, they only wipe themselves on Fridays." Mondays and Fridays must be two days to look forward to. (4/3/09)

Tonight as we were tucking in the boys, Michael was once again talking to Jared about how he shouldn't pick his nose. In true Jared fashion, he arched his eyebrows and said, "Well,I might pick 'em when I'm fuhteen, but I show won't pick 'em whend I'm fifteen." (4/1/09)

Yesterday, while I was fixing lunch, Jared looked up at me and with a concerned look on his face said, "Mom, today you are looking medium fat!" (3/11/09)

Right before Christmas, Jared informed me that he will only be wearing deoderant on the weekdays. . . I guess even 5 year olds feel like they can cut back during these trying economic hardtimes.
