{Me thinks Monday}

Another Monday the weeks are flying by I can't believe its May already wasn't it just Christmas? So Friday night for our anniversary went on a date ate dinner in a water tower, a fancy restaurant it was actually really good and nice to just sit and talk, then we hung out at walmart realized we were old and boring couldn't think of anything else to do so went home. Happy anniversary to us ha ha I did get a filter for my camera lens though!! It was a nice night just to get out {and not have to pay a bsitter too} our bishops wife T wanted to babysit the kids for our anniversary so she watched them at their house then came home to put them to bed, locked the doors and she fell asleep putting Masen to bed and Lauren never got put to bed and was still up at 10:30 when we got home and we couldn't get into the house so we rang the doorbell a couple of times. It was nice of her to babysit and the kids love her. Lauren loves them so much she glue sticked their big flat screen t.v while T was on the phone!! So 3000 dollars later and officially the most expensive date ever here we are!! j/k the glue thankfully came off and the Bishop isn't going to kill us and our children {they secretly forgot what it was like to have a 2 and 3 year old around their youngest is 6 so yah} Good times we actually were physically sick about the tv thinking we would have to pay for it until we called sat morning to see if it had all come off thank goodness it did!!! Oh the joys of being parents !!

Sat was a really nice day Kolten went to work with Darren I took the kids to the park and had a picnic with L and M, then M lost diaper through bottom of his shorts escaping through a hole in the fence, chasing the lovely robin and I had no other diaper so we hurried home. Then that afternoon Kolt and Darren went WATER SKIING -----almost but the boat wouldn't start so they came home {don't worry they had dry suits cause pretty sure there is still ice somewhere out there along the shore die hards!!} But they were looking forward to it.

The kids had fun {I even got a sunburn riding my bike to the park and watching the kids play}

Love this picture of Masen he looks so excited to go down the slide!

I think this boy was totally worn out by the time bedtime came and Dad got on the phone! He had a fun day though so that's what counts!!

For ME THINKS this week I'm using something I've already posted long ago but I still think about it because it happens a lot. When you have nothing to say or you fear something stupid will come out of your mouth and sometimes it does and you think "why did I say that, that was so dumb! or a joke or line that falls flat! {and you think they are going to remember it forever when really they probably didn't even give it a second thought}.... {I saw this in a book and this is exactly how I feel sometimes so thought I'd share it again } Some of us are just quiet until we get to know people better.

"I wonder how many people, like me, have a reputation for being snobby (people would say they thought I was snobby until they met me and just realized I was shy) when all we're doing is freezing up in an uncomfortable situation. Why is it such a crime to be quiet? Why do people seem to think that silence is grounds for being hurt, or offended, and think that you should say something, anything, even when you have nothing to say?

"The shell must break before the bird can fly." - Tennyson

Just a thought. I've done it I guess its called judging a book by its cover until you really get to know whats inside how can we make a call on whether somebody is snobby, shy or just doesn't like talking a lot?? Something to think about.

Have a great week make it a great one!
