Fun day

CHALK! It's like #3 on my "How to amuse my child" List :). Here in Cedar, it's usually pretty toasty during the day by Cedar standards, and lately it has clouded over in the afternoon and then rained some, leaving it at like 85 degrees and NICE! Holy moly....I just love the weather here, maybe not so much in December when we hopefully come back for Christmas.
Anyways...so Bubba (my little brother) found some chalk in my suitcase (hmm.....guess I should hide things better) and he bugged me ALL DAY LONG to take them outside to play with chalk. So, the rain saved me for awhile, then I told him that if he took a nap for Mom then we would go play. Bribery is #2 on the afore-mentioned list :). I am truly awful at artistry....but I can draw a mean tree....just dont ask me for anything more than that, you should see how my Thomas the Train turned out...Bubba was like "whats that?" I said "ITS BLUE, isnt it?? What do you expect?" And as you can see, Bella decided to dress up in Emmalee's skirt for the outing.



So, we are always trying to get Bella and Bubba to take pictures together, but Bella for some reason despises the camera! She will NEVER look at it, i always get a pic of her fro...

But Bubba on the other hand won't pass up a chance to cheese it up for the camera! He has started to grab Bella by the shoulders and FORCE her to look at the camera...we may not get a smile...but we GOT the face, not the hair! Can't ask for much more than that! And, lean in close to Bud's face...you can see the cheese just OOZING!! haha! Such a cutie. He loves his Bella, as long as she is doing what he wants when he wants her to do it, and as long as she never EVER suggests a movie other than TMNT or Air Bud. Ahh....family :).
