Bob and Larry, we LOVE Bob and Larry

Well, for all of you who love Bob and Larry and weren't at the Grand Opening of Lifeway books this weekend, you really missed out! I love Veggie Tales....the music, movies, videos, everything. Ms. Marti (with the baby in her tummy) told us about Bob and Larry coming to Lifeway and I was PUMPED. I told the girls and they said...oh boy. That was it? I guess perhaps that is all the excitement I should expect, but I thought it would be a little more exciting than that.

We had a hard time getting them close enough to get pics, but I tried. It was still good times!

Okay, so here is our story of the day. The girls were sitting by the front door watching a crop duster across the road spray, very exciting times at the Stahl household.

At dinner tonight Sarah was telling me about the crop duster and she said, "Mom, that airplane hit me on the head".

Molly said, "No, Sarah, that airplane didn't hit you, it doesn't have hands....silly Sarah".

The Water Park

We had a great time time visiting with Jake and Joy last week. We went to a water park and the kids had a great time and it was a nice break from the heat....the heat......the heat!!! It was a water park very much like the one at Rotary Park except it was quite a bit bigger. The girls and Jake had a blast.

Just sitting out for a little snack!
Molly and her killer whale taking a drink...uggggg.

Uncle Colby trying to keep the water on.
Jake loves his hat.
Jake and Sarah are always thick as thieves.
Trying to figure out the spouts.
Ummmm, snack time.

Our New Family Member - Otto

Otto

Well, Brian is not completely sure Otto is a boy....if not we may have to change his name to something a little more feminine. Joy bought Jake a parakeet and we were in Memphis this week and the girls fell in love with Peter the parakeet, Jake's bird. Of course we have to have every pet that Jake has...and now we have a bird. I always thought birds were nasty, but really he isn't. So now we have a bird, 3 fish, and a dog. I am hoping this will satisfy the girls because we are not a house for anything like hamsters or snakes....ewwwww.

The girls LOVE him, they sit in the window in our dinning room singing to him (the B-I-B-L-E, because it would be silly to sing anything else to a bird) and he just tweets and tweets with them. Our air conditioner got hit by lightening so the girls were playing in just undies so I didn't get a picture, but it was super sweet. I tried to get them to change their song (after 20 min) and Sarah said, "No, Otto likes this song". Great....we may never hear anything but the B-I-B-L-E.

Lazy Blogger, but cute pictures

Okay, so I am about to go to bed, but I wanted to post something. Here is a beautiful picture of my precious Molly. She is looking good!!! We don't let her wear "low ridder" panties....she is just terrible about keeping them pulled up, right side out, and the legs in the right holes. Isn't she precious?!?!?!?

A Baby? A baby in your tummy?

I was working on monogramming a diaper bag for Marti when Molly came in my sewing room. She asked if the bag was for her and I told her no, it was for Ms. Marti and Molly quickly said, "oh, for the baby in her tummy". I said, "yes".

Then she asked if I had a baby in my tummy, of course I told her no, but she was in my tummy when she was a baby, before she was born. She turned to look at me with a very peculiar look on her face. She then said, "why, did you eat me?". Oh, good times at our house!

A Girl and her Tractor?

You know as a parent of girls I thought for sure we would have many "girl" toys around the house, but as a wife to Brian I knew we would have many "boy" toys as well. It never ceases to amaze me what the girls enjoy playing with and this week it is their new tractors from Mr. Larry, or Mr. Warry as the girls call him. He came over the other day to haul off some wood from our tree disaster and told the girls they needed some big tractors....so that is just what he got them. Here are some pictures of my little farmers.

Please note that our giraffes are not only driving the tractors, but are riding in the tractors.

If you came to our house.....

I thought this was cute, I would love to see all my blogging friends copy, paste and fill in!

Play music . . . probably Veggietales or Dan Zanes....we are a hard rocking house!

Tell you the latest about . . . Bible School and how much we enjoyed WOW or Brian's progress on his car.
