These are the moments......

...that make it all worth it.
Maddie showing her new dress to Daddy. "Wook Daddy, Mama mae-dit". "You wike it Daddy?"

Molly's little notes make me smile every time! This one says don't come in my room OK- Molly. Spelled: Dot coom in mi room ca- Molly.

The big pot of veggie soup we have been eating off of. Molly started begging for some the minute she smelled it. It was hard for us to wait! This little table, full of their little on going crafts and projects.

This beautiful dirt! I can't wait to see our veggies popping up! The kids are so excited, they just watch the dirt. Molly can't wait to eat the hot tomatoes straight out of the garden, that's her favorite.
Our first summer fishing trip . Tim's first fish. Our flooded trail. This made for a fun adventure! It was so much fun. Dirty feet. You know I have a thing for little feet! Dirty little feet are even better!

Our rope swings down by the creek. Maddie falling asleep in her doll bed with her doll.

The beautiful artwork that is taped all over my walls. It really is priceless. Waking up with Elvis. LOL! WIld night?

The first time I read the note I saw, "Don't loom in my room." I was quite impressed that she could rhyme :D Your children are adorable.

Samantha, do you all live in paradise? Your pictures always look so lovely and magical, like you live where time stands still and everything is peaceful. I just love the pictures you share of your outdoor adventures.

And oh-my-word, LOVE the tiny girl asleep in her dolly's bed.

The Handmade Dress Infomercial: Do you suffer from scrached DVD's?

Do your children cry when they can't watch their favorite movie because of irritating scratches? Are you sick of paying good money for movies that are scratched minutes after you take them from the case? Do you often wish that we could just go back to VHS because you could leave them out in the rain, bring them in and use them for a coaster, and then let the baby throw it for fun and it would STILL WORK!? ME TOO ! . We have struggled for years with scratched movies that were no longer watchable, but not anymore! We have finally found the secret formula to rid you of this nasty little problem forever! . Crest Kids Toothpaste! YES, that's what I said! Kids toothpaste! . A few months back I heard some place that toothpaste would take of scratches and I tried it and it didn't work, then the other day out of pure desperation I tried it my way. IT WORKED! So I decided this kind of news could not be kept secret, I have to tell the world! So I

New triple bunks.

Ben designed new bunk beds for the "girl's dorm" and "boy's dorm" in our house. We LOVE them!! We are almost done with all of the work, just a few loose ends left to tie up, but I couldn't wait to show off his handy-work. This is the girl set. We stained them with colored stain and we really like how that turned out. It's almost the color of cranberries. I still need to paint the boards that are attached to the wall. I'm going to paint them the color of the wall so that it looks like the beds are floating. :)  This is the boy set while still under construction. We ordered new bunk mattresses, but they haven't come in yet. I will show you guys pictures when they are completely finished. We stained these green, it looks like the color of bamboo. The kids LOVE these beds! And oh the space we have now! I'll be back soon with finished pictures! xo, Sam If any of you make beds using these plans could you send us a picture? We
