That FHE snack that is not so messy!!!
Tucker was in charge of treat, chocolate pudding was his choice, and the boys mixed it up….
Then the mess began,
Month: May 2008
I love mothers day. I love it is a day full of pampering from my husband and kids,
and wanted to post some sweet things so I can remember…
I got some yummy breakfast, then a beautiful corsage to wear to church, and a new dress from my mom. (Blurry picture but only only one I’ve got where you can kind of see the boys!!)
I also always love the presents made at school and church…Here is what Tucker thinks of me… ( I weigh 38 pounds. Sweet, I weigh less than he does…but he got the cheese part right!)
And a picture of my sweet boy, and one he drew of me blow drying my hair…
Love this picture of Truman, what a smile!
For dinner we headed to the Greene’s to be with the Hunsaker side of the family, we didn’t get to many pictures, as my memory card was full 🙁
My husband took care of the kiddos so I could relax after church, and I am grateful for a day to celebrate being a mom, the best job I’ve had yet!
Part of the reason we went to Logan last weekend was to celebebrate not only Madalyns Birthday but also Grandpa Phillips and JoAnnas, somehow we missed the celebrations, but still wanted to wish them happy, happy birthdays!
First, why do we love Grandpa? From the mouth of our babes:
Tucker–He’s so nice to us and, and sometimes he comes to visit me.
Truman–And I love him because he, he’s nice to me. He likes my bugs that I catch.
I am grateful for the good people he raised, the things he instilled in them, and the way he loves unconditionally, and always likes to know what is going on with my boys!
The other birthday wishes go to JoAnna, the birthday girl yesterday. Here are some pics she took on her computer last weekend.
What a fun aunt, can you see why the boys love her?
Happy Birthday Dad and Jo. We love you!
In case you haven’t noticed, I am a little behind on my Blogging. But I still wanted to make this post!
Being part of a family is an amazing thing–especially when there are so many amazing women. So many times in my life I have heard the quote, “It takes a village to raise a child.” This is so true, especially with my children, so this post is dedicated to these Women and all the other Women in our lives.
Great Grandma Hunsaker.

We love you and Happy Mothers Day, even it it is a little late, thank you for all being amazing women, helping me raise my children and teaching me about mothering!
Saturday was a fun day, with the upcoming holiday of Mothers Day coming, we had a little shopping to do for Mom, she came along gave her input,
We had a grand time together picking out presents.
When we returned, we headed down to the park, to play!
It is so fun to go to the park with a big dog. Everyone had a fun time playing with Dodger.
Owen and Dodger,
Grandpa and Dodger,
Toph pulled the dog, and dodger pulled Owen and Tucker

On the way home,
we thought Dodger had had enough pulling. Not so, he pulled the stroller…
After so much fun, we were all ready for some AGGIE ICECREAM!

As Matt said in the car on the way home, Aggie Ice Cream is a wonderful family tradition. Agreed.
It was another wonderful Logan Weekend. (pweh! That was along post, believe it or not, I had even more pictures I wanted to put up!)
Lately Truman and Tucker love the word Delicious. And when they love something, they add –ishous on the end of the word. I love Logan, hence the Logan-ishous weekend.
Friday we headed up in the afternoon, and when we arrived, and every free second we had, the boys spent
on the trampoline… Jumping and making shots,
With Owen, Cat and
Michael
(Truman still loves this shirt from Cat, as soon as it’s clean, he’s wearing it again.)
We had dinner to celebrate Madalyns Birthday!
Take a look at her jello cake,
she was a little unsure at first,
Cousins tried to help feed her,
Pretty soon she dug in,
And so did all the other kiddos,
After a clean up bath, we opened presents,
Becca and Madalyn
While Patrick and I were getting ready for the Jazz Game,
The kids and Cat were watching a movie,
Then it was off to bed, looking forward to the adventures of the next day!
I have a few things that remind me of my children, and are very special to me. They are on top of our piano, and a couple of times Tucker has tried to move them. In an effort to help him understand how special these little trinkets are to me, I explained how each of them of them was given to me by someone whom I love, and that they reminds me of my children.
This one Toph bought for me for our anniversary right after Tucker was born, and reminds me of Tuck–
This one Amy bought for me for my birthday last year, and reminds me of my Trubee–
So the past few weeks, I have been noticing that this little dog kept ending up upstairs on the piano, next to Tuckers statue.
I never see the children playing with him, so I have carried it back down the play animal bin, quite a few times, but didn’t think to much about it, until I went to pick it up again the end of last week.
Tucker said, Mom, I keep that dog there, next to mine, so that it will remind me, that we need to get a dog. Cause that’s where we put our important things right?
Right-o. I wonder how long that dog collection is going to keep him satiated? I am going to keep that little dog there next to the statue, so I can remember my sweet boy, and his dedication to things that he wants, and wants to remember.
So I wish I had a secret video camera to record all of the funny things my kids say and do all day long, because sometimes by the time I get the video camera out, they are not saying or doing it anymore… But the other day I got lucky, and got some ‘secret footage’ (Tru didn’t know I was filming either time until the end of the clips). Truman was singing a little ditty with the word “Everytime”, we had just finished washing dishes, and I overheard him singing in the other room…I just love that sweet voice, and wish I could imprint that song and face forever in my mind.

My favorite is the snapper hands, and the straight line mouth expression and that he still loves that Drupal Song.
