October 04, 2007 Playing with Tucker


Shallon and Tucker were up from Cedar City and Bethany was playing with Tucker--I guess you could call it playing, Tucker would kick the soccor ball to Bethany and then she would take it and run and either throw it into the bushes or take it clear to the end of the yard and try to send it to the other side of the fence. But, as soon as Tucker saw the 4-wheeler he took off to get on and Bethany decided Tucker wasn't so bad after all and joined him.

August 2007 Hide n' Seek


Bethany loves to hide--anywhere, anytime; shes good at it too, and can be very quiet. One time I was upstairs doing something and couldn't find her when it was time to go back down. I looked in the front room, the bathroom (to make sure she wasn't holding grandma's deco bear), the bedroom (she likes to hide in grandma's closet). I had been calling for her as I looked and she hadn't made a peep and was nowhere to be found; I couldn't figure out where she could be. I went back in to the front room and walked to the middle of the room and so I could see past the recliners, there she was quiet as a mouse hiding from me in plain sight--she sqealed and laughed when I saw her.

We got a chest-of-drawers and took it apart to clean and repair and she thought the drawers were perfect for her.

September 30, 2007 Primary Program


Talmage loves listening to his (my) cd player and he really loves it when he gets to listen to the Primary music in preperation for the Primar programs (He said his favorite song on the disc was "I know that my Redeemer lives"). Well, of course Bethany has to do everything her brother does so she "practises with him and here they are singing the songs for the program.

Now if only mom and dad would let her then she would go sing with the Primary on the stage and take over the microphone (she certainly tried during the practices)

Homework


We fixed up a desk for Talmage to do his homework on. He loves, but so does Bethany--we need to get her one as well I guess. Of course we all know that it won't matter too much because she will just want to be at the desk Talmage is at and doing "his" homework.

August 27, 2007 First Day of School


Here is Talmage on his first day of school. He doesn't look all that thrilled, but he was. He loves school.

Bethany was still asleep when he went so when she woke up the first thing she said was "Where's Talmage?".

I wish I had taken a camera with me when we picked him up because Bethany hollered, "There he is!" and ran to him an hugged him.
