Cooking barbies

Cooking barbies?

June 30, 2008

This will be a quick one. Marisa left this morning for EFY in Nauvoo. She is so excited and I know she will have a great time. Our week looks less busy, but I don’t dare say that out loud. I still have tons to do before we leave.

Tyler went to cub scout day camp last week and had a great time. The boys were able to do so many wonderful and fun activities: water games, archery, BB guns, slingshots, horseback riding, cooking (grossology experiments) and many other fun and exciting things. Grandma Annie, you will be happy to know Tyler hit the bullseye and broke the balloon in archery on his first shot!! Then he hit the target on almost every shot with the BB gun! I think he may be a natural. Anyway, I have some fun pictures to post from camp and will get those up soon.

I just have to share something so funny. Alayna said she was “very busy” trying to prepare things for her animals big birthday bash. As she ran through this huge list of things she had to do, she mentioned that she needed to “cook the barbies”. The barbies were all laid out, each on a book. I asked why she is cooking the barbies. She said, “Mom! It’s only pretend! They are my food: sausages and sushi.” I was dying! Then she said, “I am cooking them on the grills”. Apparently, that’s what the books were. Anyway, I guess she had a successful birthday party…

Ok, hope all are doing well.
