Easy Money

Brent lost a second tooth on Sunday so the tooth fairy came back to our house Sunday night. Brent got $1 for each tooth (which I think is too much but the "other" tooth fairy insisted). When Brent got up Monday morning he showed us the dollar and said "This is easy! Mom and dad you should lose your teeth so the tooth fairy can bring you money." He also tried talking Anna into losing a couple of teeth. . .We have created a dentist!

Tooth Fairy

Tonight will be the first time the tooth fairy has come to our house. Yep, Brent lost his first tooth, and he is soooooooooo excited! I told him to smile big so we could see where the tooth use to be. . .I think this picture is hilarious, especially his eyes!

Tired Girl

We had just finished eating pizza, hence the orange sauce around Anna's mouth, when I looked back she was fast asleep in between the pile of blankets and the couch. She was super cute. . .Anna can fall asleep anywhere and she crashes a lot during or after eating.

Last Day

Yesterday was Brent's last day of kindergarten. I think we were both ready for summer vacation! Brent wanted his hair "spiky". . .not sure if it turned out the way he wanted, but I think it was cute!

Andrew's 31st Birthday

Monday is Andrew's 31st Birthday, but we celebrated on Saturday. The morning began with banana waffles, eggs, sausage and orange juice, followed by opening presents, because Andrew has no patience. Then per Andrew's request we went on a hike around Cougar Mountain trails. Afterwards we went out to dinner at a resturant of his choosing. Overall I think it was a pretty good day and everyone had a lot of fun, especially Andrew.

Andrew brought a map, which was a really good idea because you could easily get turned around on these trails.

About 5 minutes into the hike Brent insisted he was tired and needed a walking stick. . .I think that stick weighed more than he did. We quickly found him a better walking stick.

This was the first time this year that Anna was able to wear her sunglasses. She is super cute!

Brent and Anna loved playing in the mud. By the end of the day their feet and legs were covered in it. . .just a sign that they had a really great time!

Anna got to walk Toby part of the way. Brent and her had a great time running with him. . .Toby enjoyed it too!

This picture was just too cute to leave out!

At the end of one of our trails was this pretty waterfall.


This trail was the reason Andrew wanted to come hiking here. It is called Indian Trail and it has been in use for over 8000 years. (Yes that is the correct number of zero's).

A Piece of Cake

So a couple weekends ago we had a "baking day" and the kids made themselves a mini cake and got to decorate it however they wanted. Brent made a green cake and Anna made a pink one. Then we had many colors of frosting and sprinkles and candies to put on top. Once they were done with the cakes I let them eat it. They took maybe 2 or 3 bites and then said they didn't like the cakes and wouldn't eat the rest of it. . .I think they were a little too sweet! It was fun anyways!

Disney World

Last week we went to Disney World for a Wahlquist family reunion. We had a blast! Here are some of the pictures of the fun we had. . .







Yep that is my husband! :)




We were able to have a Character Lunch, where Disney characters, mostly princess, would come around and give autographs and let us take pictures of the kids with them. They got to meet Ariel, Jasmine, Alice, Snow White and Belle. It was a lot of fun!





Brent and his cousin Max had had enough walking for the day, notice the matching shorts and Star Wars t-shirts. . . :) That was not done on purpose.

At Disney Hollywood Studios they had a whole Star Wars area. . .needless to say that was Brent's favorite!
