There was some sort of construction expo going on and Jude and I went to investigate. He loves "diggers" so we were all up and over these machines. We wren't supposed to actually...touch the machines...but....I couldn't resist. I would run Jude up snap a shoot and then run him back down. He loved it!!! If you are selling a machine that isn't toddler tough, then you are in the wrong buisness.

Ths is Derek helping out at a psychology club fund raiser! Pie in the face anyone?



 
Derek is turning 28 this year, and what do we do for an adult party? We play video games, duh! Derek got a new fighting game for his birthday and we all had a tournament where everyone fought everyone. Of course Derek won but there was some serius competition from Oliver who was feeling it. We wrapped it up with a green velvet cake with the green lantern symbol on it. Happy birthday my darling!




 
Hurricane mud run. I am in love with these adventure 5ks. This one was put on by the national guard and had over 20 obstacles. We had tires, mud pits, trenches, tires, planks, swinging. I couldn't get a picture of all of them. In fact I wasn't even sure if my camera would make it. I put it all safe in a zip lock baggie thinking things were gonna be cake, boy was I wrong. By the time I was done running the camera ws covered in mud and I had bricks on my feet. The mud had caked on my feet so thick. Also I started with high capris and by the time I was done the pants were so heavy that I was certain I was mooning some of the runners behind me. SUch a fun run and next year I am going to get Derek to come with me. More mud, more better!

So it is General Conference weekend and while most mommies are trying thier best to help their children sit quietly and reverently thorough 4 hours of speakers I didn't even try. I love conference and want to listen to and enjoy it and if I had two toddlers coming apart at the seams it isn't going to happen. So I errected a mini bouncy town and just let the kids have fun, while I sat by being nourished by the words of the prophets. Love me some general conference and hopefully when the kids are a little older they will sit with me and love it too.
