Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and LET US RUN with endurance the race set before us, LOOKING UNTO JESUS, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God." Heb 12:1&2

Still Workin


Still workin on our summer bucket list......

 When all my boys came bounding through the door after baseball practice I quickly ushered them outside with the instructions to take their shoes off and go to the trampoline.... Having no idea what was to come........

I secretly prepared inside....

On to these.......




 And brought them out to some anxiously awaiting kids


 Notice the boys faces... they know what is to come.. they have the look like they have done this before.. that they are about to completely enjoying being able to attack each other and get extremely messy....

Well then notice Kaitlyn's face.. She is staring off into space trying to figure out why her crazy mommy told them to go to the trampoline and then out plates of whip cream. Must be snack time she is maybe thinking??????? Well I can tell you one thing she wasn't thinking this would happen....



 She burst into tears when her brother got her a good one. All the while clutching her plate of whip cream which she wants to snack on....


 Oh but the laughter that was heard amongst the boys was why I did this... They LOVED IT :)


 While still screaming her head off so the whole neighborhood thinks we are torturing her.. her sweet brother kneels down so she can pay him back.. she stopped crying for a moment.. but then resumed until placed into the warm bath tub!


What isn't pictured is after the kids were done.. I called Mat out to spray the boys off while I put Kaitlyn in the bath.. but what I really did was come in a get another plate of whip cream.... 




Sneaking up behind him
I planted the plate right on his face... 
But what I forgot to consider was the hose that was in his hand and the freezing cold water that was streaming out of the hose......

Oh yes he got me good... 
Let's just say it ended up being a messy, laughter filled family night that the boys said was the best night ever!!! 
Meaning- it was so worth the mess
