August 2015

We've made it to August in both 2016 and in my blogging of 2015! So here are some random things from August.


This lovely sight is something we saw many a time for a long period of time. Allison LOVES filling the toilet with toilet paper.

 Sometimes when the child screams at nap time it's actually because she needs you. Poor Alli.

Our trampoline was much used by our kids and the neighbors. There was a small hole in it which suddenly became a huge rip. (Note: After this rip was in it we no longer let the kids jump on the trampoline for obvious reasons. We moved a couple of weeks later but left this in the backyard for another couple of weeks. When we went back to get it the rip went from one end to the other. We have no doubt that the neighbor kids who helped create the rip broke into our backyard and finished the job. Not gonna lie, I wasn't sad to leave the neighborhood kids behind.)

Here Owen is holding the kitten Teemo. (He disappeared before we moved, so we didn't take him with us.) This is picture worthy because we basically forced him to sit and hold the kitten. Normally he would run the other way when this or our other cat was around, because, you know, little kittens are terrifying. So look at him facing his fears! (You think I'm being sarcastic, but I'm not.)
