My Birthday!!


For my birthday we had a great day!! Jeremy let me sleep in and made me a delicious breakfast of french toast. After breakfast we went hiking somewhere we have never been before. We went to Near Island and hiked a trail in Northend Park. The trail went through the woods and ended at the beach. It was a beautiful day and perfect to be outside.



While we were hiking Jeremy found this cool little "woods house". The boys had fun checking it out.



On the trail lined with salmonberry bushes!

These are salmonberries! They are huge and taste similar to raspberries. And they are everywhere in Kodiak.



More trail pictures.


At the beach. It was low tide. During high tide all this is covered in water.


Jackson wants to climb the tree with his brothers.


All along the trail there were Salmonberries. The kids love to pick them and eat them. I had Jackson in a backpack on my back and every time we passed the berries he starts yelling, "I wanna a bite." If I didn't get fast enough for him he would whack me on the side of the head! My kids are too demanding!!

After hiking the boys wanted to go fishing. I hate fishing, but I wanted to have a fun day outside with the family. So we went fishing. But I need to post that one all by its self. I had a great birthday!!

I was just thinking about how old Jackson is. Then I realized he is now the same age Carson was when Clayton was born!! Oh my goodness, Carson was just a baby when Clayton came along. Since I was thinking about that it got me thinking about my life then. 4 1/2 years ago.... That was the hardest time in my life thus far. I was having a rough time dealing with a "toddler" (really just an older baby) and a new baby. We lived in a 2 bedroom apartment. So we shared our room with baby Clayton. Which was not ideal. Since he was in there I could not sleep. I just knew if I slept then Clayton would stop breathing. I know I was crazy, I got over that with Jackson. Since I didn't sleep it really got on my nerves that Jeremy slept so soundly. That man would not wake up for nothing during that time. Needless to say I was very tired all the time. Oh ya, I also weighed more than I ever had before. And very upset by that. That was just one more thing to make me feel bad. So, I was fat, I...

Sisters Or Sister In Laws?

Image
I worked at Allen & Peterson a couple of weeks ago on a Wednesday night for their pre -grand opening. My brother in law is now managing that store and he asked me and others in the family to help out that night. Of course his wife, my sister in law, Jenn was there helping too. A bunch of other people who worked there normally (I don't know any ones names) could not believe we were not sisters. She told them, "nope, just sister in laws." I don't think they believed her. Actually , everywhere we go people think we are sisters. I think people in the ward we live in still think we are sisters. So, what do you think? Do we really look that much alike that we really could pass as sisters? We don't think so, although I would clam her as my real life sister any day .

Who peed in the shoe box?

Last Sunday Clayton came up the stairs with no pants on and he was saying, "I just got a little pee on my pants." So I asked him why was there pee on his pants. And he says, "Well, I had to pee in a little box." What little box? I asked him. I go down stairs with him and he pulls out a wet shoe box out of a cabinet . At least he put his pee away. I told him not to pee in boxes anymore and to please walk up the stairs to the bathroom. I love my boys, but boys are gross!
