The DREADED orange shorts!

So, I was cleaning out my "tshirt" drawer yesterday and found these "hideous" shorts shoved in the bottom. They were Miles' a year ago, but he would put them on with EVERYTHING, and they are orange. So I decided to make them "disappear". Well, I put them in Kiki's drawer last night.....
You will not believe what he wanted to wear this morning!!!!!????
Hmmmmm.....I might need to hide them again.....AND clean out my drawers less frequently :)



I had to find him "the shirt" that goes with them and tell him that they can only be worn with this specific shirt.....LOL. I can try can't I?

Karate Mommy Date

The new Karate Kid movie is at the dollar theater, so I took the older 2 boys to see it. We call Quincy our Karate Kiki as it is. He has been begging me to put him in Karate for months. This obviously didn't help. It was fun to take them on a little adventure before school starts.

Here they are trying out their moves....in front of the theater and at home on the tramp...



I wish I would've had the camera out after the movie ended. We were in the lobby and people seemed to be staring off in one direction (or maybe it just felt like it), but Quincy is in the lobby trying his "moves" out! Funny kid. We had a great time!

Boys at the Provo Temple

It was a day of meetings for me, so Allen took the boys to the Provo Temple with a sack lunch. The boys had a lot of fun! They are growing up so fast. Look at my future missionaries...


I love to see the temple....I'm going there someday!


I hope you boys will always be this excited about the temple. It is Heavenly Father's house and we can't wait to be able to go inside together as a family!

Matthews Family Reunion

We started our trip in Idaho Falls/Rexburg where Allen taught at an EFY. We stayed with Grandpa and Grandma Matthews. Porter loves baby Britin. We just have to watch him....closely!

Next we headed to Nampa, near Boise for our first Matthews Family Reunion for just Allen's siblings and families. We had 3 of 5 kids there. Hopefully next time all of them can be there.
We went to a super fun park/splash park. Quincy was upside down in 3/4 of the pics we took. He is our karate kid right now. So funny!

The boys got to bring their Wii remotes and play with cousins on their Wii! We had to keep telling them to scoot back!

We celebrated family birthdays that happened this past couple of months! Yummy, cupcakes!

Adara and Porter are buddies! They love horsey back rides!

Thank you Lyn and Galen for hosting! We love your new home! The boys loved spending time with cousins. Hopefully, more cousins can attend next year! Yeah for family!
