I've really capitalized on that 'be good or else santa won't stop here' business. Mino has brushed her teeth religiously ever since.
the pics of mino on the 'boat' are a re-creation of columbus' voyage to the new world. I thought it fitting because she didn't know about the first thanksgiving. I'm pretty sure that it didn't click, she'll probably remember thanksgiving as the day mom uses tons of elmer's glue and makes everyone wear unseemly hats.
There's not much to do in the summer. I cannot believe that this actually fit inside his mouth. It's pretty cool/disgusting
Amelia has a new summer toy. This is her little tykes playground that was discovered by mom at a garage sale. Hurricane thrives on yard/garage sales. I am convinced that if I open up a weekly garage sale in my yard and that I would make a phenomenal living. Oh wait, La Verkin already capitalized on that....
This is the morning that we got the piano and Joe's Dad came to help out. When we were ready to lift it into the truck, I thought, "There's no way". I even considered faking an accident and being stuck under the piano to create an adrenalin rush and make it easier for the guys. They didn't need it. It was amazing. Thanks to Charlie, Rob, Dad, and Joe
In our attempt to be the osmond family, Joe and I decided to buy a piano and sequined stretch pants. Mino has gone nuts over this piano. She looks at it and says, "Songs" then goes over and play with her toes/head/elbows, and occasionally her fingers
Tending these girls is so much fun. I took this pic of Brooke and Kate for Punjabbit and Marvo. You can't see too much, but I figure at least you can tell that she's pleasant and fat. Changing Brooke makes mino and kate's bums look massive...... 
I have seen Joe clean up my puke, consistently do the dishes, laundry, and clean toilets when I'm totally capable, support and listen to me when I'm going nuts, but nothing compares to the spitty toothbrush that he let mino shoves WAY down his throat time and again during a Jazz game. 
Ha, forget five dollar footlongs, mill's first car cost that much. We found this baby at DI where Joe decided "that we should all really have our own car, bethy." So Mills is now the owner of this bad boy. Too bad we still don't have a garage....
