I am LAZY!!! That is all.

So the only excuse I have for not blogging in 2 weeks is that I am computer lazy. I really can't stand to be on it when the kids are home or awake which leaves me like 2 nano seconds a day....not long enough to blog. Plus I was lazy and didn't want to the download of pictures from the camera because our computer is ancient (7 yrs old) and it takes me forever sometimes....needless to say I am LAZY!! But with much coaxing from my sister to get some new pictures up here they are. I cannot promise that they are completely appropriate not that some may find them offensive (my children still are young) but they are pretty funny!!

First we have Payton, who took second in his weight class, at his first and only wrestling tournament. There were about 8 kids in his class and he did very well. He got pinned the first round then won with pins the other two. He ended up liking wrestling (much to his chagrin...he didn't want to like anyting I suggested) and hopefully will wrestle again next year.



So here is Olivia using a "band-aid" for her not scraped leg. She found them herself when I was busy with something. My children have been blessed with a lack of patience (like their mom and DAD) and tend to be self sufficient. Not always a bad thing and many times something to make me laugh.



For those of you who don't know, Gavin will one day be in theatre (or a chef he can't decide). He LOVES (I can't emphasise that enough) wearing costumes. So Kevin found him this all too fitting one on the UPSers website and we had to have it. We made a delivery of chocolate covered pretzles (the letter envelope is made of material and is really useable) to Kevin's office. All the ladies thought he was so cute.



Then here is Olivia again being self sufficient. She decided to wear makeup one afternoon. I decided to take a picture rather than get too worked up. It worked out well and now I am trying to adopt that way of thinking to many things. Be warned you may see some rather interesting pictures in the future!!!



Here is our "one and only" hill in ND!!! (I am NOT Joking) Payton went sledding here with his class on a Monday and wanted us to all go so badly. We went the following Saturday and as you can see there was a lack of snow. That, however, did not deter them from sledding down and climbing up this pitiful snowburm. It was a great time had by all but made me miss the hill out at the Wasilla park!!!



See I have lots to catch up on. Here are all the (78) Easter eggs I hid for the hunt in the yard. It sounded like a good idea at the time but I must admit that 6 eggs would have been easier for me to remember where all of them were. We only had one at the end that Payton had to go hunt for. He was successful in finding it and eating way too much candy!



Other than all that, the weather is becoming beautiful. It was in the 50's today and sunny (with wind of course, I do live in ND). I got my bike out this week and am now peddling all around. Including my workout this morning I've already logged 20 miles today. The people here will begin referring to me as the crazy bike lady. I put Olivia and Gavin in the cart and away we go. I've started riding Payton to school in the morning and then picking him up in the afternoon. Unless it's raining (crazy raining) we will be on the bike all summer!!! I do have to admit I love that about this little town. So I will try to keep my blog updated so you can see the crazy I live with!

Love Kirsten

Hooray for the update. I have a picture of Corban with a pad on his head and it wasn't just a panty liner.
