Separate Entertainment!

We are so not the normal family! Other families stay together for saturday activities, not us. When football season starts, Saturdays are a free for all. Last game, there was an extra ticket, so he took Kam along as well as Braedon. Good thing my family was getting together in Plain City for my little sis's B-Day. We had a blast. I got to see my youngest sisters beautiful home, that her husband built. We're happy Alan got an early start on BYU brain washing. The kids love to go to the games. Sorry for my orphan looking little girl. I did her hair before I left, which was 5 hrs before the game. Need I say more.

My baby girl in Preschool!

First day of preschool
I found out how much I underestimate the knowledge capacity of my 4 year old. Today, as I was walking her to Steff's house she noticed all the flags waving and asked if it was the 4th of July. I smiled at her, and went on to tell her in the most simple way the trade tower story. I asked her if she understood she said yes and that it was sad. Thinking that she wouldn't remember a word I had just said I left it at that. Later that night Steff and I were talking and she told me she was very surprised at how informed Kambrie was, I was a little confused. Then she told me of how when she answered the door when I dropped Kambrie off she had noticed the flags and couldn't figure out what day it was. She was trying to figure it out, when Kambrie very proudly recited the story I had just told her, twice. I am so proud of her. I also found out the the school said nothing about today to the students. I took the opportunity to explain to Braedon the same thing. I'm Afraid and sad, the teaching of History in school will soon come to an end. I have come up with a solution. Alan's Dad is a huge history buff. What better way for my kids to learn than from Grandpa! Sorry for the long Blog. I thought I would pass the word, to never underestimate the understanding of your child.

Alan's idea of quality time!!!
