WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE?

What is wrong with this picture?
Well, the kids wanted to watch the Disney Channel so I told them it was fine and to just keep the volume down a little. Before long Kev and I made our way to the couch and sat down and began watching" Good Luck Charlie" with the kids when a few minutes into the show Kev turned to me and said, " Why are we watching this?" I said, "The kids wanted too." He then told me that he didn't think that was the case and I glanced over at the kids and this is what I saw; Bailey Rose playing "Angry Birds" on the i-pod and Keaton playing a game on his DS with the Disney Channel playing in the background which neither of them was watching. Kev and I looked at each other and chuckled at the fact that we were involved in a kids TV show while they were obviously being entertained by other electronic devices and hardly noticed. When Kev switched the channel both of the kids said in unison, "Dad! We were watching that!" Is it possible that they could do both at the same time? LOL!

SUMMER SO FAR.....

Well, I guess it is time for another update! So far it has been a busy summer mainly with just everyday life. The kids are finally starting to get the hang of "sleeping in" and I have enjoyed a little quiet time to myself in the mornings. I wish I could "sleep in" but I am up when Kev gets up for work at about 5am and I can only lay in bed for so long before I start to feel like I am wasting time.

A few weeks ago we celebrated Keaton's 12th birthday! Grandpa & Grandma Roth came all the way from Texas to be apart of this special birthday! Keaton was ordained a Deacon by his dad on Father's day! Grandpa & Grandma Roth, Grandpa & Grandma Smith and Uncle Chad and Kevan and I were there for his ordination. It was a very special Father's Day once again because, 12 years ago on Father's Day Kevan was able to bring home his first only son home from the hospital. It's hard to believe 12 years have gone by since that day. After church we had a Father's Day dinner at our house and had a full house with 17 people but it was DELICIOUS and LOADS of FUN!

A few days before his ordination we celebrated his birthday with Texas Sheet Cake ( My kids FAVORITE cake) and ice cream. The Jensen cousins and Uncle Brian & Aunt Shanna, Uncle Randy, Aunt Keri Lyn, Grandpa & Grandma Roth and Grandpa & Grandma Smith and Aunt Deb all showed up for the celebration. Keaton's favorite gift was all the money he received, he has been saving for a Nintendo 3DS and he was able to get much closer to his goal. It was lots of fun!








Kevan and Grandpa Roth, Uncle Randy and Keaton all endured the heat and got in a day of golf while Grandpa & Grandma Roth were visiting. Kevan enjoyed spending that time with his dad. He said it was the PERFECT Father's Day for him!

The next week after Keaton's birthday we all got together and celebrated my dad's 71st birthday! My dad picked the Golden Corral to eat at and we all had fun eating and visiting and laughing with one another. The cousins enjoyed hanging out as always! It was a fun night and celebrating my dad is an easy thing to do since is is just the GREATEST dad to walk this earth!










So far this summer has been a good one even if we have no plans to go anywhere. It is a stay at home summer and we have done lots of swimming and will continue to do lots of swimming. We are looking forward to celebrating Bailey Rose's 10th birthday in July! So the celebrations will continue throughout the summer!
