Vactaion

Spencer took to weeks of leave. It was great we had plans to go and see Korea. We ended up staying home and having lots of relaxing family time. We moved on post the week before his leave started so we were able to get our house put together. Our friends the Coxs also started their leave so we did hang out a lot with them. I did some sewing projects. I will post pic. later. We took the kids swimming and went to Ever land. We also taught the kids to play SkipBo. It has become our new favorite game until we went to the thrift shop and Dillon got a battle game. You battle by rolling dice. Kray was the undefeated Champ until I played with them and then I won. We are loving it on post. The kids have lots of other kids to play with and I can walk any where.

I had to go grocery shopping the other day and Spencer decided I should push the cart home. I told him he should come and pick Christina, Joe and I up since we were going to story time first and Christina always rides her bike to the library with her friend Sophia. He said no. So I told him he could come pick us up, walk over and push the cart home or I would take a taxi. He decided to push it home himself. It was fun to watch him. One of the hills we have to walk down he decided to ride the cart. I was thinking what is he teaching our kids but he had fun and the boys had fun trying to catch a ride. I love being a Mom and wife every day. My family amazes me more and more.

Bed Time Reading

I told my boys they could read in bed last night. When I came in Dillon and Kray were both reading the scripture readers that we have. Dillon was reading the Book of Mormon and Kray was reading the Old Testament.  Joe had on the floor a comic book that I found about the Book of Mormon. I love seeing my kids choose to read the scriptures on their own.

Org day face paintings

We went to Org day with Spencer and the kids got their face's pained. Dillon didn't want to because he was watching the rc races. I think they did a great job on their faces. 

No more training wheels

The boys did it. Kray and Joe both through there training wheels into the garbage. Know we habe to practice practice practice. I am so proud of them both.

On Saturday we went to the Korean Folk Village with the Turville's. It was neat to see Korean performers. I loved watching them dance. Then we walked around. Dillon choose for us to go to a Korean Mountain Village. They had squash growing on the roof of the shed. 

They had body pillows and the kids had fun pretending to sleep with them. They had a tree that you could rub your back on.  We all took turns climbing into the palanquin and see what it would be like to sit in one of these boxes and be carried around. Then we dressed up in traditional Korean clothes. It was very hot in all those clothes. The kids had a great time running around and we had fun hanging out with the Turvilles. I am glade that we  have a family in our little branch that has kids the same ages as ours. 

Bike Ride

We rode our bikes from Rex Village to the hanger where Spencer works. It's just over 3 miles. You have to cross over one major road. I was nervous about this but the kids did great. Spencer rode with Kray and I rode with Dillon and Joe with Christina on behind. We made it to Spencers work in about 40 min. I was very proud of my kids. We had a great time. 

California

We had a great time in California and the kids keep asking to go and play with everyone again. I was scared that Christina wouldn't go to my parents or what to play with the girls because she can be so shy at times but she remembered everyone and couldn't get enough of them. 

The boys had fun riding and even would get up early in the morning to go riding. They had a great time playing with their cousins. I hardly saw them except when they wanted food. I wouldn't have it any other way.
