Inapproriate laughing.....

Ok, this is a record... three posts in one day! But, Brayden is at Grandma Phillips' house, so I can type in some peace and quiet. Here goes.... Kent and the girls and I were at Joe's this morning just walking around. As we were cruising the store, I saw an older, heavier lady near the bike section. She was casually checking out the bikes and when I turned around she was riding one. The old saying, "You don't forget, it's like riding a bike." Not so true.... I turned around just in time to see her leaning to the side, she didn't even stick her leg out to catch herself. She landed smack on her side. As I'm typing this it sounds really awful, but it was sooo funny! Kent and I both had to turn the other way so we didn't make a huge scene laughing at her. (Her husband was there to help her). Every time I picture it in my mind, I bust up laughing. I know this is evil, but it was like a movie. After ten minutes we were brave enough to walk past the same area so we could go pay. I saw her bravely meandering through the store! I would have been out of there so fast.
As many of you know I laugh inappropriately pretty much daily, this is the latest example, it really is evil isn't it? No wonder Kent gets upset when I laugh at him!

A slice of Sunshine!

On Friday we decided to finally venture outside. It was a warm 34 degrees. The kids have been going nuts all cooped up inside. They rode bikes and ran a little. It was nice to finally get some fresh air, I didn't last as long as they would have liked. Is that a sign of getting old, when you are cold ALL the time and can't warm up? They would have played for hours, but I was too much of a wimp.

Brayden going "super fast!"

Coy little Dani.

Mischievous Ellie.

Scaling the mountain, notice the appropriate shoes she insisted on wearing, on the wrong feet, naturally!

Husband of the year!

On Kent's day off (president's day) I worked with my niece and nephew on their speech skills. Kent was kind enough to agree to watch all of the kids while I worked. When I came upstairs he had all the kids at the table eating dinner! It was so great, and such a relief that I didn't have to deal with it that night. What a treat! It was quite the sight, five kids sitting at the table by themselves having "toddler talk." I am so lucky to have such a great husband. I know he looks thrilled in this pic. I think he was just about finished with his dinner duties.
