A couple of days ago I told Bridget that we needed to go to the grocery store. She didn’t want to go with me, so I used the argument that we didn’t have any food in the house and that if we didn’t go to the store we wouldn’t have anything to eat for dinner. […]

Bedtime Story
July 28th, 2008 · 6 Comments · a day in the life, bridget, dave, random
With Dave being in school this summer, sometimes he ends up going to bed before (or around the same time as) Bridget. One particular night… it was about 8:45 p.m. … Dave asked Bridget if she’d like to tuck him in. “Sure dad,” she replied. She pulled back his blankets and covered him up when […]

Jackpot, toddler style

Last Wednesday I went to Smithfield Implement to pick up a Camp Chef for my dad – they were having a sale. The store opened at 9:00 a.m. Not knowing how many they would still have available, and recognizing that I had other commitments that would tie me up most of the rest of the […]

Geocaching with the Wild Family
July 17th, 2008 · 4 Comments · a day in the life, dave, random
Last week we took Shauntae and her wild family geocaching with us. We hit several different caches over the course of about 3 hours. All the kids loved the modern day treasure hunting and were pretty eager to trade one dollar store toy for another. I think Shauntae and Nick had a good time too! […]

Microwave woes

I haven’t posted in the last couple of days… I wanted to leave the Wheat post up until after I placed the order. The total order from our ward came to just over 1 ton of wheat. That’s a lot!! Anyway… Saturday morning our Microwave decided to break. I never realized how much I depended […]

Two Hundred
July 11th, 2008 · 4 Comments · a day in the life, family, random, tina
As coincidence would have it, I decided a couple of days ago to look and see how many posts I had so far. My count was as 198. I missed my 100 post milestone, so I thought I should probably do something a bit special/different for post #200. Though, I think a larger milestone for […]

Conversations with a toddler
July 10th, 2008 · 9 Comments · a day in the life, bridget, random
A few recent conversations with the kid. This is a mere sampling. If I wanted a full record I’d have to follow her around 24/7 with a video camera… tempting idea. Anyway, Enjoy!! Big girls don’t poop (in their undies) T: Thank you for pooping in the toilet instead of your underwear. B: You’re welcome. […]

Fun with Lego!
July 9th, 2008 · 2 Comments · a day in the life, bridget, random, tina
You may remember me mentioning that we bought a couple of “Brickmaster” subscriptions from Lego.com before our trip to California. We did it for the “complimentary” legoland tickets. As a perk to the subscription we will get a total of 6 lego sets (or 12, if you count that we end up getting 2 of […]

Camping with Adam
July 8th, 2008 · 3 Comments · a day in the life, bridget, dave, random, tina
Dave’s friend, Adam, had never been camping. Until a little more than a week ago. We decided to introduce him to the wonderful world of camping. Adam and his son (Alex) joined our little family up Right Hand Fork the last weekend of June for all kinds of camping fun! We roasted hotdogs, made smore’s, […]

Park Group

Our ward recently started a Park Group… every Wednesday morning we get together and take our kids to a different park in the Valley. Those of you not in our ward are still welcome to attend if you’d like – your kids would love it! I was about to post the park schedule here, but […]
