Jeffrey Mansion

Recently, we were able to attend a birthday party for Charles's oldest Step-brother Dan Price which was held at Jeffrey Mansion in Bexley. We don't have any pictures of the festivities. It was a nice party, but this is more representative of what we spent our time doing. The kids kept wanting to climb the big staircase up to this statue. The kids did get to swing at a pinata for the first time, but we didn't get any pictures of that.

The Beach....sorta

Okay, so we don't really have a beach in central Ohio, but here are some pictures of us at the Alum Creek beach during a ward activity. It was actually kind of a cooler day for the end of June, but the kids still had a blast. Cole is wearing my T-shirt because we didn't want him to get his wet.

Juliet lays down the law

Juliet can be a very strong-willed child and so lately I've been trying to set firm but respectful boundaries for her. I guess I have my firm Mom voice, "Juliet, you have to get dressed right now, if you don't get dressed than I'm not going to take you to the park."

Well, it has come back to haunt me.

The other night Juliet came up to me and in the same voice said, "Mommy you can't play on the computer anymore. You need to put the computer down now and come play with me." Boy, she got me there.
