Okay so I wanted to edit my new post and I don't know how so I am just adding on.
Friday and Saturday I spent in Boise at a conferance for childbirth education. It was a great conferance and I learned alot. I am going to be teaching some childbirth education classes at the hospital so it was very helpful.
Today we are celbrating Chelsey's birthday because no one was around on the 1st of August...her official birthday. Mom and Dad and Daves mom will be here for dinner and then Mel and Jo and hopefully Shawn and Rachelle will stop by on their way home from Utah.
I am looking forward to our camping trip this week end and especially looking forward to seeing Casey. We have fun things planned so new pictures will be posted next week!!!!

So.....we went to the circus this last week with Grandma and Grandpa James. If you saw Rachelles Blog you have seen a similar picture of the one to the right. The lion that Jenika liked is here as well. Dave said several times on the way home "that was Awesome" spoken how only Dave can. It was fun to be together and the kids really did enjoy it. We picniced at moms first and with much to do I got a picture of me and my sisters. Karl was supposed to be sitting by Cindy but he vanished.
Thanks Mom and Dad!!!

I am still trying to figure out how to set this up.....

It is Sunday at the Jackson house. Shawn and Rachelle spent the night Sat. and went to church with us. Cutler fell and hit his forehead on the bench. We couldn't decide if we should put him through the trauma of strapping him down for stiches or not and finally decieded the cut was not terribly deep, they didn't want to sit in the emergency room for 4 hours, they didn't want Cutler to be held down, unfortuneately money is an issue and he is a boy sooooooo we super glued it!!! We put some steri strips on it and hopefully it will heal okay. Crazy I know. Then this evening Chelsey and Whitney crashed while playing in the rubber band. I honestly thought Chelsey was knocked senseless but they are both alive and well, granted they both will have bruises but they will live. The lesson is....don't get in the rubber band with Shawn and Josiah!!!

Jessica and Josi!

More pictures from cousin camp!

This is Sierra.

The others are Bryson, Jenika, Jackson and Russell.

We had our 2nd anual cousins camp last week. Here are 5 of my cute grandchildren. We played games, painted shirts, visors, and water bottles. We went to the new McDonalds, slept out in the tent and ate waffles for breakfast. We fingerpainted outside and then had a scavenger hunt. I am looking forward to when I can make the scavenger hunt challenging and they will love it! Right now they were only focused on the prize at the end. The twins came for the hunt and were pretty clueless but they loved the bubbles they found at the end.
