For real, a new post?

Yes I am still alive and kicking! Just having fun being a family. Here are a few funnies over the last few weeks:

**We got to church a couple of weeks ago, and I realized I hadn't combed Travis' hair. I bathe the little boys at night since we all share ONE bathroom! Anyways..we went to the bathroom and I tried putting water on it, and it just would not stay down! My boys have the OPFEL calics and Papa bill thick hair! So trying to pull a "Magyver" as dad would call it...I used the foaming soap as mousse. It worked like a charm. Except the fact that Travis turned to me and said "did you just put soap in my hair?"The look on his face was priceless!

**As a family we sat down and watched the dvd from John Bytheway, "What's in your backpack". The boys loved it. One of their favorite things he said was..."What do brothers like to do when they get together? They like to cause each other physical pain of course!" It reminded me of when Pres gets together with his brothers and as old as they are getting...they always seem to end up wrestling! It is so funny, and I love it!

**Around valentine's day we had the conversation hearts out and Travis kept giving me hearts saying "here are my words to you mom". So Derek was teasing Travis and grabbed one and gave it to me, and then said " here are my words to you, mom", in his best baby voice. Then when I read the conversation heart out loud he turned bright red! It said....SO FINE & ALL MINE!!!

**We were playing Disney Scene It one night a couple of weeks ago and me and Pres got a tie answer. So on the tv screen there is a tie breaker you can click on. We clicked on it, expecting a really hard question, and laughed hysterically at the "tie breaker"! WHICHEVER PLAYER IS SHORTEST! I can't remember when the last time being the shortest has come in handy!

**I was running late getting the kids to the YMCA, so I asked Derek to pack snacks for Kleigh and Travis before he left for school. He did and I was so grateful! When I got to the YMCA and glanced down at the sack lunches to see which was which, I had to laugh. One had TRAVIS written really big on it, and then underneath it said "is a baby". On Kleigh's it had her name really big and underneath it said..."so is Kleigh". Gotta love big brothers! :)
