Joshua and I getting in the Christmas mood
Joshua actually kept his antlers on for quite some time. While I was feeding him he kept looking up to see them and of course every time he looked up they disappeared behind him, it was pretty amusing. Frequently I walk in the front room and there he is playing with his toys wearing the antlers. Any of the kids will just walk by and put them on him.
On sunday I look down the bench at the kids and realize that through no intent of their own the girls all match. Photo-op! So, here you have it

We did something fun!
When you're renting there's only so much you can do. However in a couple of days we created a total bathroom transformation. I only wish we took "before" pictures. Gone are the three different colors of sponge paint and mismatched bathroom rugs. Wow! I feel like it's a brand new house : ) Come visit us and if you're really nice I might let you use it (to wash your hands, but bring your own hand towel)

Fall 2008 Kid Update!
Big Ben is now in High School. He can tell how many days he has until he gets his learners permit (watch out), he gets to go to seminary and he loves the bigger school and bigger selection of electives and probably girls, but he won't admit that to his mother : ) Benjamin is playing trombone again this year and can't wait for the band trip to Washington State, he's hoping to make the cut for the High School soccer team and he seems a little more serious than last year about his homework (fingers crossed it's only been a week in a half). Benjamin is fun to be with when he's not acting like a typical teenager. He has his moments with the kids and loves doting on Josh (he's been so sweet with him since day one) There's nothing better than a new baby to soften the effects of a teenager in the house. It's hard to believe this kid will be heading off on a mission in 4 short years. I think we're getting old?
Elizabeth has also hit some milestones this summer. She turned 12 on July 18th and is loving this new step into womanhood. Namely being almost done with primary and old enough to officially babysit. She spent her summer, reading, doing crafts, playing with friends, learning and trying out new ways to fix her hair, choosing out different outfit combinations for her school clothes and looking forward to the big 7th grade. She is in drama (shocker) and loving it. Elizabeth is also a huge help to me. Always being that extra pair of hand when Jeremy is away!
Andrew is a fun kid, he wakes up with a smile on his face and keeps it there till he gets in bed at night. Andrew turned 10 this year and is in the 5th grade (Wow! Last year of elementary school) He is still an avid reader, crazy pokemon collector and a fan of anything penguins. He's playing soccer again this year with dad as his coach, can't wait for the ball to get rolling with scouts and spends as much time as possible outside playing or downstairs "creating" He completed a 1,000 piece puzzle single handedly in about a week (see the picture below)
