Max's quiet time

He finally did it! Max fell asleep on his own. This is the first time in 2 years! He was having his quiet time from 12:45 to 1:45 in the playroom. I went and checked on him at 1:45 and he was talking and playing so I left him. I went and checked on him again at 2:00 and didn't hear anything so I opened the door quietly, and this is what I found. Him asleep on the chair with his books. He looked so uncomfortable, but I wasn't about to move him! So cute.

This may be one for the record books. We have purchased a family tent and enough sleeping bags for most of the family anyway, and will be travelling back to Zion (oh wait, Zion is where ever you make it, right) via the National Park Service campgrounds along the indicated route. We may show up at your homes stinky and in need of showers, please feel free to turn the hose on us.

Slacker Lowers

Hello Everyone,

Well, I just got rebuked from Heather for not blogging. I guess I am the only one that has not put a blog on about our family. I am very sorry, I just am not a computer gal. I guess when you have a 5 year old, a 3 year old, and a 1 year old, you really don't have time for computers. But, that is no excuse.

So, here is some little info about the Lower Family. James, just had his 5th birthday on Fathers Day. I can't believe how old he is. The family came up for a little birthday party.
He had a lot of fun. He's finishing up T-ball and really excited to start kindergarten in the fall. Zach is also getting really big. He wants to be just like James. He loves Star Wars and he loves his Light Sabor. He has made a lot of friends in our new neighborhood. Jackson is our very active one. He loves to climb on anything he can find. He just fell off the counter this weekend and put a big hole in his lip and shoved his tooth up in his gums. He is quite the bruiser. Needless to say, they keep us going.

As far as Kenny and I, we are just busy finishing the basement and doing the yard. That is about all. I will try and be better at being a blogger. Love you all, Melissa

This is our crazy jackson!! He loves to wear my shoes.

James and Zach got to go to build-a-bear for James Birthday!

Family Fast

I hope Erin and Russ don't care - but I'm organizing a family fast in their behalf. This coming Sunday is fast Sunday and a great day to fast for them since Erin will be having surgery this month. I was thinking we could even set a time on Saturday night that we could all start our fast with a prayer at the same time - and end it together on Sunday at the same time.
Let me know what you all think.

Howdy Ya'll!!!

We welcomed a new a ddition to our home on June 8th. He is a 2lb 4oz Yorkie pup named Henry Finnius Murphy "Hank". The boys are so excited to have a dog. The day before we got the dog we were discussing the responsibility of pet ownership with the boys and they came up with jobs we could do. They are as follows: Connor-Teaching tricks, William-Brushing his hair, Quinten-Buying his water, Scott-potty training, Steph-"really brushing his hair", Gavin-keeping him company. Gavin is really good at his job.

HAPPY FATHERS DAY

ITS A GOOD DAY TO START BLOGGING, HOPE YOU HAD A GOOD FATHERS DAY EVERYONE, ESPECIALLY YOU DAD!! WE LOVE YOU.
