Time for an Update!

This past week marked the 100th day of school.  Hallelujah! 100 days closer to summer!
Owen and Marvin were asked to dress up like they were 100 years old.  After looking at the picture it looks like Owen dressed up like a geek and Marvin is a rock star.  Oh, well!  We should get points for trying!  Here they are both looking at their pocket watches.  Perhaps, these two will be long time best friends and look back at this picture when they're old!
 
Here they go!  I have to laugh though because Owen was totally into this.  He was up early getting ready.  I love the brief case!  I think moms should be able to get in on this celebration too.  I mean that is 100 lunch boxes packed, 100 rides to school, 100 days of going through book bags and 100 days of reminding everyone how many more days until it's the weekend!
 Meg had to wear something with 100 items on it.  She decided to decorate a hat!


Owen and Marvin get together several times a week.  They build:

                                                  Play army:

Build forts:
              
                                                               set off rockets:
 and then we all enjoy going on a hike:


                              
                                                     Throwing rocks into water:

 
                                                   Finding ice up in the mountains!
                                         
                                                            finding old Indian Pictographs:


                                                        
                                                            looking at more pictographs:
Climbing over streams:


 
Meg sleeps with these guys every night!  She doesn't just shove them onto the side of her bed she arranges them neatly.  I tease her saying, "Meg, you sleep in a zoo."  She had such a sweet response:  "Mom, they just bring me comfort."    Comfort.....so thankful we have a Savior to go to for comfort.  We are awaiting information on where we will be headed next.  We should know in the next few weeks.  I find myself restless and anxious about the unknown...I will seek comfort in my Savior.  For He knows.
