WHAT KID WANTS A CHORE CHART FOR HER BIRTHDAY?

MINE!

My Bekah had a birthday this week and that is what she wanted. So this is what I made her. (sorry the pictures aren’t any better)

I cut out a board and painted it brown.

 

 

I printed the chores down the side and the days of the week across the top on a piece of scrapbook paper..

 

 

I glued a piece of  tin to the board and added the vinyl letters and notes.

 

 

Then I printed out a sheet of the letters of her kids names and cut them out with my Silhouette.

Then I glued them onto round magnets so they can be moved around.

And there you have it. A chore chart for a birthday.

OUR COUNTRY IS WELL PROTECTED

My son went off for his two weeks of guard. I thought you might enjoy a few pics of the lighter side of things.

This one cracked me up because my other son just found out he needs glasses and I was teasing him about wearing big nerdy ones and this picture popped up on Facebook.

 

Even the food is well protected.

Isn’t he handsome?

There’s something about a man in uniform. Well almost. The footwear is a little casual.

Hmmmm, serious.

Ahhhh, friends!

Yes, we are well protected!

I THOUGHT I COULD… I THOUGHT I COULD…

WAHOOO! We made it. Up and over those big mountains and down into Bear Lake and then back up again and home. Even though it rained we had a wonderful time.

Our dear friends the Waites joined us.

Beatrice had a good time,

Uncle Josh and Franklin had a good time. Can you see them?

I was way back at camp and I could hear Franklin singing away way down by the lake.  So cute!

Here they are way zoomed in.

 

The clouds rolled in..

They got darker and darker…

And it rained!

Here is Liz getting ready to do her half marathon bright and early in the morning. (Notice the dead deer carcass beside her!)

Then it rained and rained

But she kept on going..

And finished!!! What a trouper.

I’m soooo proud of her!

IT AIN’T PRETTY BUT……

 

 

I’m off to Bear Lake to camp in the rain while my silly beautiful daughters run in a marathon. 

WAHOOOOO!!!!

GOOD OLD USA!

Okay, I finally got around to making these. I’ve been very distracted with my garden and fixing up my motor home for it’s first outing hopefully this weekend.

So here they are.

They are $20.00
