My familys names were Jocky Jenny Jenna Loo Who, Belly Dancer Brookelynn Loo Who, Brillant Brady Loo Who, Kite Flying Kate Loo Who, Zoo Keeper Zachary Loo Who.

Wasp attack

So we have had a problem with Wasps this year really bad. The kids have been bitten at least 6 times between the two of them but we never could find the nest so they all got bites out by the garden so I went to search of the mystery nest.I watched the wasps fly around the flowers and then go under the rail road tie that lines the garden so I start to spray the log and suddenly at least 20 wasps attack. With all the kids in the back ward as well watching me. So I scrambled to get them inside and in the process got bitten by the same wasp stuck on my shirt twice. So my neighbor says he will come help me flip the rail road tie to get to the nest better. So I with hose in hand and my brave neighbor flipped the tie over to reveal this. Which is now soaked with RAID. THANK YOU ALEX.

Who remembers
making houses out of leaves? Playing ghost in the grave yard?
Jumping into leaf piles? Or hiding in the pile to scare a friend
or little sister? I LOVE FALL

Fall Fun

Conversations with a three year old.

So Brookelynn has and Elmo phone that says her name. Well she was having a conversation with him and it was time to eat. So .....

MOM: call him back later.

BROOKE: Elmo is a girl.

MOM:no Elmo is a boy.

BROOKE: But she is red. And laughs cute.

What logic.

Brookelynn also says Superman is a Prince.

So at night we have a tuck in routine Make a tent out of her bed with the top bunk.

make sure the right blankets are in the right spots and no cracks are showing. Tuck

her in next to her 3 foot Superman Prince. So I lean over and give her a kiss and hug

and then lean over to give Superman a kiss and hug. Then Brooke say stop it mom He

is mine.

She knows alot for a 3 year old.

I'm just waiting for the teenage years.

Hope none of her friends try to steal her Prince.

Happy Anniversary Babe

This is one of our first dates and the moment I knew Zach was for Me. My room mate Kacy and her boyfriend Shad went with Zach and I to the hot pots in SF. Zach was sitting on a rock above me and I sat below in the water. I turned my head to talk to Zach and he let one fly. I bust up laughing and knew at that moment he was meant for me. Dad you said I could never find someone who could handle my burping and farting. He obviously never meet the Alvey's
