A day in the life of a Barbee...

Here's pictures of some fun moments from the past few weeks at our house.

Kydee's best funny face

The kids found a dead lady bug and insisted on having a memorial service, complete with the following plaque. (For those who can't read the small writing, it says, "In memory of Princess Ladybug. Died in 2009 when she was two. 2007-2009") How they decided how old the lady bug was, I'm not sure. I thought it was so cute that I had to take a picture. They did it all by themselves; in fact, I didn't know about it until after the 'service' when I saw this in Kydee's room.

Here's the kids watching a movie with popcorn.

My cute little punk rocker! (It's kind of hard to see, but he has a faux-hawk.)

The girls dressed up Dalan and Elias like little girls.

Elias was less than thrilled, but Dalan didn't seem to mind!

Here's what Elora looks like every time she bends over.

I can't find a pair of pants that fit her waist.

Elora did my hair for me one day. Isn't it lovely?

Elora wanted to take pictures of us making silly faces.

I hope everyone who sees this first, realizes we're not all crazy, and second, remembers to have fun with life and enjoy the silly little moments!

Brag about my little Brownie...

I just had to add a little blurb to brag about my oldest daughter, Kydee. She is a Brownie Girl Scout and wants to go to camp this year. It costs $330 for a five night camp. She's been selling her toys and books, saving her allowance, and selling Girl Scout cookies like crazy so she can pay for it. So far, the cookie count is 318 boxes, plus whatever her share of the booth sales is and she's saved up $40 of her own money. Way to go, Kydee-girl!
