Family night

The other night for family night, ok it was Tuesday cuz Monday is night clinic. Anyway, we went to get ice cream at a little place named Silvermann's. It was delicious. Taeler got a cotton candy ice cream cone, and Josh and I shared a shake. I recommend it to everyone, but will say it was quite pricey for an ice cream shop. Then again, so is everything around her! It was nice to spend some time with dad!

Aunt Sydney

This is my little sister Sydney. I wanted to embarress her because that is what sister's do. She is fifteen and a sophmore at Basha high school. She just got nominated for homecoming queen and is very embarressed about it. She is shy and obviously doesn't realize how beautiful she really is. I know I didn't look like her when I was fifteen. Anyway, congrats to Sydney, and hopefully you'll win, even though I know you don't want to!

Taeler and Mom

Taeler loves to take pictures. She wanted to take one of us, so here it is. A little scary, but Taeler thought it was so cool!

Discovery Museum

Recently, we got a pass to the Discovery Museum. It is a really neat place where the kids can go and run and play and do lots of different activities. These are some pictures of Taeler, Hadley and Kinley one time we went! Also, I included a picture of the Carpenters new baby boy, Crew, cuz I know alot of you have moved away and are anxious to see him!

My new obsession

Ok, last Friday, Josh and I went to dinner and then stopped by Barnes and Noble. While there, I found the book Twilight. I remember my dear friend Tatum recommending it to me, and also this summer my sister Karlee also did. I have to admit, I haven't been much of a reader since I had Taeler, lack of time I guess. I read the back, and I started laughing because it kinda sounded cheezy. But, I got it anyway cuz it was only $8.99. I started reading Saturday when Taeler and Josh took a nap, yes, I probably should have been resting myself, but I couldn't put the book down. Let's just say I read the whole book in two days. It is REALLY GOOD! Yes, it is about vampires, but I promise you will fall in love with the characters, being that it is a romantic book, and yes very clean! So, Monday I went to purchase New Moon, the 2nd book in the series! I had to find out what happens! And yes, I read the whole book in less than two days! Lucky for me, the 3rd book comes out on Aug. 7th, so I don't have to wait long. Now, Tatum thinks I'm a huge nerd, and I have to agree, but I promise if you read them, you will love them. If you haven't already, apparently I'm behind on the popular books to read! Well, let me know if anyone decides to read them.
