Eva on Nursery

Eva and I were playing in her room the other day when out of the blue she says, "Mom, talk to me about nursery."

Me: "umm...ok. How's nursery Eva? Do you like it in there?"

Eva: "NO. I do NOT like it."

Me: "What don't you like about it?"

Eva: "cuz, sometimes it's crazy in there and crunchy"

Me: "What do you mean it's 'crunchy' ?"

Eva: "well, when I eat rocks in nursery it makes a 'crunch, crunch, crunch' sound and I don't like that."

Me: "you eat rocks in nursery?"

Eva: "yeah, and they just crunch crunch crunch."

I guess that explains her mysteriously chipped tooth.

Vacation Part 2

*I'm warning you. This is probably the most pictures I've EVER slapped onto one post.

The next stop on our vacation was to see my Grandparents in Colorado. It seemed so stinkin short, but after loading a bazillion pictures on here I know why....we were cramming a whole lot into a few days! Some highlights of the trip:

We went fishing. Not at the usual spot, but it was beautiful nonetheless. We didn't catch a thing, but I don't think anyone minded. Eva harassed, erm, I mean asked Abba (for many days in a row...several times a day) to find her a snake. He did this last year and I guess she figured that was his duty. He caught one while we were fishing and she loved it. Wouldn't put it down. Took it around to smell all the flowers. Aaaannd it was terrified of her. The poor thing puked up his lunch, so we made her let it go.

We hung out with the fam. Did I mention I hadn't seen my brother and his sweet family in two years? It was killer let me tell ya.

We FINALLY got a family picture taken. (Thanks Megan!)


We just enjoyed the fresh open air.

We visited the sand dunes. It was fun, but hot....and sandy....and sliding down hills didn't go as well as I had envisioned.
We went swimming. This kid. loves. to. swim!
And then I cried all the way home. :)
