"Kyson's Dr. Seuss Week"
Last week at school was Dr. Seuss week. Throughout the week they did different things everyday. Day one was Pajama day, day two was Hat day, day three was where your clothes inside out day , day four was dress like your favorite Dr. Seuss character. I wonder who Kyson dressed up as.
Hurray, Brinlee is potty trained. I am so excited, this is the first time in almost 8 years, that I have not had to change diaper's. I do not no what to do. While I was potty training Brinlee, every time she went to the bathroom, she would get a sucker. Riley loved this idea, because every time Brinlee got one, so did he. A couple days into this, Riley went to the bathroom, and came out and said "mom, I went to the bathroom, I need a sucker". Needless to say I went threw a lot of suckers in 3 weeks.
Riley was so excited that mom and dad finally let him give Brinlee a ride on the snow machine. Brinlee loved it, she laughed the whole time.
Like father like son. The other day Riley had a bloody nose. He went into the bathroom, and fixed the problem. When he came out of the bathroom, he told me he did not need my help, dad had showed him what to do . The only problem was that he wanted to go to school looking like that.
Kyson just finished his first year of basketball. He did so well. It is so much fun watching them learn new things. Every time Kyson made a basket, he was so proud of himself. Lets just say, Brian and I spent a lot of time laughing.

A couple of weeks ago, we took the kids on a snow machine ride up to feed the fish at "Big Springs" in Island Park. The kids had a blast feeding the fish, and especially loved the muskrat.
Aren't these 3 chillins so dang cute.
Brian took the kids snow machine up for them to ride. Let's just say Kyson obeyed the rules, Riley on the other hand, no hope. We gave some rules for the boys to follow so that they would not get ran over. Kyson followed them to a tee. Riley, every time me or Brian turned our head, he would dart off into some field trying to find a jump. It took us so long to get back to the truck, we finally made Riley get off, and put Kyson back on. The kids had so much fun. As you can tell from the picture Riley likes to rear end people on the snow machine.
Kyson loves to drive dad's snow machine. Brian is usually on the back telling him to slow down.
Brinlee loves to ride snow machines. Every time Brian would get off of the trail, she would look up at me with her arms stretched out, like where did dad go. Brinlee loves to go fast, she will laugh and go "wee" pretty much the whole time. Brian just loves the fact the his kids love to ride, as much as he dose.
Just thought I would share some of Riley, Brinlee, and McKenzie's art work. Lets just say mom was not happy. Riley, the smart one even signed his name on the shelf.
