Just a quick story...

Today is our FIVE year anniversary! YAY! Because we are out doing so many things today- I don't have tons of time, but I thought this was pretty funny- and I will try and get some more posted maybe tomorrow. Anyhow- I went to the store with Kenna and I was looking for some ribbon to wrap a gift. I happened to see a bag of old fashioned creme drops that were fairly cheap. I LOVED these as a kid and was so excited to see them. So I bought them and was telling Kennedy how much I loved these awesome candies and how lucky of a girl she was that she got to taste them with me. I gave her one and she took bite out of it and said, "Mmm! This is good Mommy!" then she puts her hand up by her head like she is thinking and says,"Hmm... I wonder where the garbage can is?" HA!! I laughed so hard! She was trying so hard to please me by telling me that she liked my treat- but at the same time she was NOT impressed at all! i just thought it was a priceless moment. I could definitely hear her thoughts at that moment where she was thinking, "Ok mom...whatever! This stuff is crap!" I just love that little girl! Well I am going to go and have an AMAZING day with the love of my life! Happy Anniversary to me!

Terry Family said...: This story cracked me up! I love how Kenna is trying soo hard to act like she likes the candy, just for your sake -- "I love it, mommy," as she leans to the side and throws up. I love that little girl!; August 26, 2008 at 11:00 PM
Chrystal Wilcox said...: I just have to tell you I love the picture of you and your husband at the very bottom of the blog. It is priceless. I hope you have it hanging somewhere in your home, maybe in black and white or scypia. Hay also I have been meaning to ask you if you might at all be interested in digital scrapbooking. It is so much easier and soooo fun. Then reason I ask is because I sell scrapbooking stuff digital and traditional for creative memories and I need to sell more before the end of the month to keep doing it. I would love to have you come over and check it out sometime this week if you might be interested. Than you could see my new house. Let me know. 8015775975; September 24, 2008 at 10:36 AM

10/12/2008- I was braiding Kenna's hair and she was playing with the squirt water bottle. She was chattering on about how she was going to clean the house with it and make everything all shiny. Then she stops and says,"Don't listen to me...you can can clean the house just fine mommy."

4/16/2008- Mac is always doing little "magic" tricks for Kenna- and she absolutely loves them. Tonight while we were eating dinner- Kennedy blurts out "Daddy! I want some maggots! (Instead of magic) Too funny- especially at the dinner table!
Kennedy was sick on Sunday and I stayed home with her. I sent Mac on ahead to teach our Sunday school class. Kennedy asked me where daddy was and I told her that he was at church and that I felt sad that we were missing it. She looked up at me with horror struck eyes and said "Oh crap! We're missing church!" Red flag to me...watch what I say!
We were walking down the aisle at the store and we passed the ladies section of clothes. Kennedy pointed out a pair of old ladies elastic waist, purple polyester pants and says "Oooh- that's nice!"
I was laughing about some stupid thing that I read and Kennedy looks up at me and starts laughing too- then she says "Oh mom! You silly old goat!" What?! That made me laugh even harder.
