Week P

Week P was Plenty busy as they all are. We started the week with a breakfast of Puff Pancake and a Party that evening.

With Presents.

We got some Pistachios, which the little men love.


And then did lots of Packing for a trip with Mr. Tech for work.
Here's Jeffy Parking the van.

We found a P on this sign.


And when work was done got to go visit this Punkin,

(who doesn't appear to like Pictures or Picture takers, I'm not sure which)

and his family. His Mommy had posted a great P Post for us that week.

We Played,

and Played

and Played

and yeah, you get the idea...

These are all at a interesting Childrens' Museum in Ellenburg.


We also Pretended to be Bumpa cutting trees.

And firemen.

At this point my camera was out of batteries, the story of my life, who'd a thunk it would do that. Some how it seems to happen every time we go somewhere. I always leave home telling myself it's got plenty of juice left. The problem is if I bother to remember the recharger it never runs out of batteries cause I will inevitably forget to use the camera the whole time or some thing of the like.
Anyway so the remainder of the time we took a walk to the Park, we being women and children, the gentlemen half of the party took the van and met us there. This was just Peachy with us, the Plus size, I mean side, was the guys got their "cave time" and we ladies got extra chatting in. We also had Pizza for lunch before heading home Saturday afternoon to be home in time for our Sunday school treat on Sunday.

The one Part I wish I had a Picture of was Deb and I taking the 5 kiddos shopping at Safeway while the guys were checking out Mr. Wise Guys work. Safeway had a cart the was a double seater up top and then also had a little car attached to the front with room for two as well as grocery room in between. We got all 5 kids in that thing and just an FYI if you are in a hurry to get your shopping done that is not the recommended way. It seemed that the whole store had to stop and comment. And then when I was off getting something they would assume they were all Deb's. "WOW, two sets of twins?!?" upon being told they are cousins they must then know who goes with whom, and so on. So yes, not conducive to a quick shopping trip contrary to our first thought.

Our verse for the week was: Pray without ceasing. 1 Thes. 5:17

And read a bit more of the life of Peter.

We had lots of Practicing to do as Phi was to say a verse this year for his SS class but ended up chickening out and not saying any verses. Maybe next year...

So were on Q this week and just sort a taking it easy as it's a hard one to think up any activities for. But maybe we'll focus on counting Quarters or something.

That pic of Jeffy parking the car is hilariously cute. I love it! Good job on catching the falling blocks in mid air, that is a clear shot!

Great pics! I HATE my batteries running out. Drives me nuts. We'll have to check out the Ellensburg kids museum one of these days, that sounds fun. :-)

Your accounts of the week are funny! Especially the shopping cart w/5 kids drama! :) Love it!

Q would be hard...you could study Queens or do a Q tip craft, and kids always have lots of Questions!
