Yet another OUCH!

I guess our family has issues with black eyes lately considering this is the 3rd post involving eye injuries in the last six months or so. So here is the painful yet kind of funny story....
We keep our mop in the garage and during this time of year I have found crickets or spiders in the mop and so I always shake it out really good before I bring it in the house. I was in too big of a hurry and lamely used my uncordinated left hand to shake it out since my right hand had the broom in it. After about 3 shakes BAM! and i was blinded by the mop handle straight to the eye. You might find this funny, but offer me a little pity....it hurt like crazy.

This is not the best picture but the best I could take while having a hard time keeping my eyes open. You also cant see that the white part of my eyeball was no longer white on half of it. Housework is hazardous, yet another reason why we moms should get paid for what we do!!

Rylee's 3!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RYLEE!!! My little guy is 3 now. The plan was to try and take Rylee to the zoo for his day but that didn't work out for this weekend anyway. So his birthday happened to fall on a day that was being celebrated by the whole town for Hayden Daze and we went to that instead. They jumped in the inflatables and Dylan got his face painted. Rylee just did not have the patience to stand in line long enough to get his done. What can you expect? He's only 3 :) They played on the slip and slides and Dylan got to do some rock climbing We had planned to have a little party for Rylee with some friends. But since they couldn't make it we decided to just make it fun with just our family. First Balloons!! And boy, did they have fun :) Rolling around in them, trying to pop them by squishing them in a big hug and we cant leave out the big bellies and boobs! Then he opened his presents, played with them and we ate cake! After all that fun we finished the night off with a funny...

It's Our 11th Anniversary!!

Oh my, does time fly. It's pretty weird to think that we have been married for 11 years. I don't think we feel old enough for that much time to have gone by, but we will continue to grow old and wrinkly together forever! Happy Anniversary to US!! Kirk and Camilla on our wedding day.... No we didn't have a big fancy wedding but we were there together and with our family and friends and enjoyed ourselves, that's all that matters! A couple more pic's of us together throughout the years.... 2002 Somewhere between 2003-2004 2007 2008

Indoor Playground

Who needs to play outside when the playgound is right here in the house! We have a couple mattresses that used to be for Dylan's bunkbed that have apparently turned into a slide and trampoline. I'm thinking this looks like alot of fun and I have been tempted to try it out for myself, but I'm pretty sure I would look alot less graceful then they do :) Don't mind the multicolored walls.....we ran out of paint in the middle of the job.
