Projects, Projects and More Projects!

The last few weeks have been quite busy gearing up for our ward's version of Super Saturday. It actually is over a month away, but the hard part of coming up with and making fun projects is over. Check it out and let me know what you like (or don't like).

Picking Peaches

The church orchard had a surplus of peaches, so they opened
the orchard to the public.
We took a little drive to Hurricane to glean some.
I packed the camera to document McKay's first peach picking experience.
He was a great helper!

Honesty

Mom: "Does Mommy look pretty?"
McKay: "Katie's pretty!"

Katie is McKay's cousin on whom he has a major crush. He's been in love with her since she played soccer with him at our family reunion. Whenever we talk about her, he gets a big grin and a twinkle in his eye. It's true, Katie is very pretty.


Mom: "What's going on here? What are you in to?"
McKay: "Trouble."

That's often the case.


Mom: "Why is your hair sticky?"
McKay: "I make handsome."

If I call him by anything other than his name, he'll say, "No, I handsome."


We were out for a ride when McKay shouted out, "OH MY GOSH! A water fountain! Dad, pull over! Let me out!"

I'm not thrilled he's picked up on certain phrases. We've tried to change it to "Oh, dear!" or "I can't believe it!".


If McKay feels wronged or is upset with me, he'll say, "I tell Dad!" The same thing goes if he's upset with Nathan, "I tell Mom!" The other day he was upset with both of us and thought he was being mistreated so he yelled, "I tell Joe!"

Joe is our neighbor/friend and is a dog trainer.
McKay often asks to go to "Joe's house". Joe is a pretty cool guy. McKay likes to pretend he's "Joe" and trains his stuffed animals to "sit".
