This week

Last week and this week we have been battling sickness in the house. The 24 hour virus went through each children one by one and now I have some kind of cold/flu. I am glad we are all getting better now. The best part of last week was a really cool email I got from church asking if everyone needed a bunk bed. I replied very quickly and was the first, so we got it. Devin has been VERY HAPPY for his new FREE bed. He has a new dresser and a little desk under it. Perfect spot for a little boy. His room is still messy because I have been to sick to organize anything.




















Devin had a project at school to make a paper quilt timeline. I had no idea how to make one, so I looked online. So this is what we made.....





















We put age 3-8 year pictures in each quilt square. It was a lot of work but fun. We got our inspiration from a quilt Dane's mom made for us. Of course Jarom only wants to be in the picture when I do not ask or when it is a Devin picture only. Silly boy :)

Happy Happy Happy

We are very happy because it looks like we will be able to stay here at Fort Benning for another year and a half. Dane was able to get command here!!!! Perfect place to stay for a long time (in Army life)!! I can not believe Devin will be able to almost finish 2 years in the same school. Of course we do not have our orders yet, so I am still a little worried it could change but the big boss called Dane and told him so sounds good to me :)

Below here is Devin with his "Robot bug" an elective for cub scouts! It vibrates and moves!!
























We were super excited to get a special gift from Grandma Nichols just for Jarom, a wonder new quilt she made for him. Jarom loves it. It is even great to hide under when mommy wants to take a picture.























Lastly, here is Ammon socializing during church since he will not sit still for sacrament. I love that smile. I am glad Dane got it on camera.

Trip to Atlanta


These pictures uploaded very weird, so we will see how they look. Last weekend we took a trip up to Atlanta with Grandma. Dane and I were able to go to the Atlanta Temple which was nice. The next day we went to the Georgia Aquarium, lots of fun!





















See Devin and Jarom through the fish tank???























Daddy and Jarom with a little friend


















































Today we went to Hobby Lobby and saw this great bench. It was so cool, I would love to have it only $400.00!
























The best picture of all, Who wants the dog bed more, Ammon or Shmoo????? Shmoo always wins. Shmoo will drag Ammon around until Ammon gets off or fells off. SO FUNNY!!
