Happy Cereal Day!

Did you know today is Happy Cereal Day-Let's commemorate the creation of Dr. Kellogg's famous Corn Flakes in 1897. Since cereal is a staple in our house, for everyone but me, it is a day we must celebrate! Our panty always has a shelf full of boxes, and usually some more stored up at the top. Brayden loves anything- cheerios, kix, marshmallow kind.... Brooklyn loves to raid the pantry for a mid-morning, mid-afternoon, mid-evening snack. It is not uncommon to see a box pulled out in the living room. Billy, well, let's just say its almost dessert for him since he has a bowl after almost every meal. So, thank you Dr. Kellogg from the bottom of our empty cereal boxes!

What a fun day - kind of ironic because yesterday I reorganized my pantry and threw out 5 cereal boxes that had less than one ziploc bag full of cereal in them. They were just taking up space. But I guess it shows how much we eat, too. Katie is a cereal queen! Those are cute pics!

Mini-Marathon

Brayden's school does a "mini-marathon" each year.  During recess, some of the kids choose to run.  For each lap they do, they earn a punch on their cards.  Brayden ran 27.2 miles!!!!  He earned a cool medal and certificate. We were so proud of him. I forgot how long his hair was!  He decided last spring that he wanted to grow it out until school let out.

 ....you can't take the country out of the girl. My parents' have pretty much the coolest place to visit...well, besides the beach or Disneyland... so we always have fun going back home to the farm.  Grandma Marie Bramwell- 89 years old!  Double Rainbow! Sunset over the Snake River  The only reason he is wearing a helmet is because he had to for his scouting belt loop.  We had to fudge a little bit- it's his bike helmet.  Billy has learned a thing or two from me :)

Brayden got to celebrate his birthday at the happiest place on earth...Chuck E. Cheese.  Yes, he really wanted a Chuck E. Cheese birthday party.  Not the kind where you show up and mom orders pizza and brings your presents in, but an actual Chuck E. Cheese Birthday Party.  You know, the one where they set the table for you and you get an awesome blow up crown and Chuck E. comes out an entertains you.  I blame all the children that previously have had birthday parties there when we've shown up. Brayden did design his birthday cake.  Apparently he wasn't impressed with the giant cupcake one I made last time that tipped over.  I like doing it this way much better- so much easier.   He got to invite a few friends.  We missed a few that were sick or out of town.  Bummer.  I guess that's what happens when you have a December birthday.  The boys that did come were so much fun and full of all that boy humor- loud and silly.   We opene...
