Summer Fun

ok I made a summer look... I don't know how long I can stand it... My other look is like home to me and I miss it sometimes. I think it reflects who I am the most is why I love it. I do love these photos I used on the header though... they reflect alot of the fun we have had over the Spring...

Rainy today... The girls are playing dress up and camp out.
Jacob is on the computer.

Yesterday we made a quick trip to the zoo because my sweet Treasures have just become too "one with nature"... Saturday morning they walked in with a bucket and said, "look mommy we found this snake and we want to keep it." You all might have heard my scream of "get it out of here!" I then got a shovel and hit the thing repeatedly and got it off of my porch somehow. Daddy is never home when you need him.;) I tried to explain that they are dangerous and you must use caution and all that good stuff but Jacob just started crying and asked Chloe if she would take care of Allie when he died. UGH!... I continued to explain you are NOT going to die because you picked it up, I am just trying to get you to understand in the future don't pick something up if you are unsure if it is poisonous. I really attempt to not use fear when teaching my children and was trying to get the point across without frightening them.
So we usually avoid the reptiles on zoo trips because I do not find them very pleasant but I wanted to educate my little sweeties on the dangers of just picking up any creatures. I hope I got through their little noggins. They just love going on hunts for things, so I am definitely going to have to watch them and continue reminding them.
