A blog about Kyle and Rebecca's family
I took my girl scout troop to the Dinosaur museum today. One of my co-leaders used to work there and so she gave us the “birthday tour” (the tour they give groups when they are having their party at the museum).
Look at all those vests full of patches! I love being a leader and getting to do all these awesome things with these girls!
Our water heater has been on it’s way out for awhile. It has been leaking and putting out the pilot, then we would find that there is no hot water. So it was time for a replacement. The plumber wasn’t able to come replace it before we went to Idaho, so we made sure to turn it off and drain it so we wouldn’t come home to find a big wet mess in the basement. We looked into tankless water heaters, but in the end we decided to just go with another tank for now, but we did upgrade from a 40 gallon tank to a 50 gallon tank. 🙂
Saturday we loaded up and took Seth on his first road trip!
It was just a short one though, from our home to Ammon, Idaho to visit Wendy and John and to meet cousin Amelia. Grandma was just in heaven soaking up baby loves. I’m sad that Debby and her family weren’t able to come, or there might have been three babies on Grandma.
Before we went to bed Saturday night, John taught the kids how to play dominos.
This morning we got up and got ready for church for Amelia’s baby blessing. I didn’t take my camera to church, so I took pictures after we got back to the house and after things calmed down a bit.
Since Grandpa and Grandma, Tiffany and her family, and our family were all planning on leaving Monday morning, and John had work Monday morning, we decided to all meet at Ihop for breakfast before we split. Surprisingly most of the kids ate ALL of their food. Then it was time to head home. We were home in the afternoon, and Grandpa and Grandma stopped off to drop off a few things with us, then it was time to rest from driving so we can get back to normal for tomorrow.
Seth fell asleep on my bedroom floor for a mid-morning nap. Later I walked in to find that Lydia, just wanting to be with him, had laid down next to him, and then she fell asleep too. 🙂
Chloe had to go in for a crown, so Kyle made arrangements to take her in yesterday. She ended up having three crowns, a tooth pulled and a spacer put in. Her face is still swollen this morning. 🙁
