Oh what do YOU do in the summer time?

Oh what do you do in the summer time,
When not all fingers are working!
Do the kids just go crazy,



Climb to the top of the fridge,


Or hide in tight places, to get away......
If that's what You do,
We do Too!!

Oh what do you do in the summer time

When all the pools are tempting
Do you eat two things at a time,

Or Burn in the bright sun shine,
If that's what you do,
WE DO TOO!

Oh what do you do in the summer time,
When all the world is Sweet!
Do you feed missionaries,
Or bake like crazy,
and eat the treats All Day....


If that's what you do,

WE DO TOO!!

Package made perfect

After praying, and lots of "discussing" with the people retaining our package in customs, and finally with Grandma Anna generously paying the the extra $130.00 Mexican tax fee (for her $20.00 package) our package finally arrived, only a month after she sent it! Oh HAPPY DAY!!!
Easter eggs are unheard of here, and will be so nice to have now!
Of course we love the $30.00 Chili's gift certificate, for Thomas birthday, and we will surely enjoy it!
Grandma made a pile of skirts and dresses for the girls, and they LOVED it!
Thomas put on his new shirt, and colored his new super-hero book right away!
Maya jumped right in with everyone else! ( I wanted you to see how strong she has gotten this last month.)
She looks beautiful with grandma's new dress on!(we think her eyes may be more green than blue some day, like her dad!)
Kirtlyn, of course, was the most excited. In the end, the UPS guy told us to use FedEx next time. I guess if the UPS guy says to use FedEx, than we Know now that it must be a better way to go!
Grandma and Grandpa Biggs "birthdays package," came just in time for big Thomas' birthday.
Of course the Nutter- Butters, Cheese-Its, and marshmallows were opened and enjoyed right away. Kirtlyn was so excited to put on a dress from Grandma Biggs, that was identical to the dress given to her by Grandma Anna the year before. And she enjoyed her special wrapped gift from Brianna. She carried around the purse, with everything she got, in it. It was a good time!
Another home-made gift, from Grandma Biggs, was these beautiful paper dolls.. Kirtlyn used those right away!
The gift bags from Mary were so nice to pass out on May 19th, even Maya loved it.
And the new Toy Story 3 game for Thomas' Birthday was perfect! I highly recommend it for anyone with little kids. It is so easy, and so fun!!!
Thank you Grandma Anna & Grandma/Grandpa Biggs, it was nice to have a little piece of home delivered straight to our door!
