Walking with Bunnies

Tymber talked me into getting a leash for the bunnies so they could walk them. I didn't think it would go over to well, but Tymber's bunny Oreo loves it. Oreo is the least social of the 3 so I was surprised he liked it as much as he does. He runs all over the yard and the girls just hang on and follow. It is pretty funny to watch. Hope's bunny hates the leash. Autumn's bunny will tolerate it but he just sits down and refuses to move. I hope with some work the other two will learn to like the leash and exercise as much as Oreo does.

floating

For YW we took the girls to float a canal. They had a blast. The first two pictures were taken with a setting on my phone, I thought they were really fun and loved the way they turned out. They would get in the canal float for about 3 minutes and then get out and walk back up to start again. There was one spot that had a few rapids but it was a blast.

Hope and the splint

Hope was with my dad at Arctic Circle while I was school shopping with Autumn and Tymber.I guess she fell off the monkey bars and landed on her elbow, I really thought her arm was broke but it ended up sprained really bad. I felt horrible, my dad called and called and my cell phone was dead, Autumn's was dead as well. It was probably 2 hours before we got to her. My dad finally caught Autumn's phone as we were finished with lunch and told us Hope fell and hadn't stopped crying since. I knew she was hurt because this girl never cries, she can have blood running down her leg and walk in the house like it was no big deal. When I got to my dads it was pretty swollen so I knew it was time for the doctor. Rich was just getting of work so I dropped the girls off at home, picked him up and we went to the doctor. She was really scared and thought the doctor was going to saw her arm off. we told her no the worst that would happen would be a cast. Poor girl, luckily he just put a splint on it and said she was good to go.

Prayer

We are trying to do better at family prayer before bed. Something we need to work on, but we are getting it. Hope was asked to say the prayer tonight...

Heavenly Father please bless us and keep us safe tonight, please bless the missionaries as they are off killing people. Amen.

Haha and oops. We had to explain to her that the soldiers defend our freedom and the missionaries teach people the gospel. Not sure where the soldiers killing people came in, we often bless them but don't mention them killing people.

She was really cute and it was hard not to laugh but a good lesson was explained. So cute and back to working on family prayer.
