Spring Break

This past week was spring break. We didn't go on vacation, instead we had some special moments of our own right here. Everything from blizzards to getting a fish was happening right here at the Pebbles Family household.



This is what the storm made our yard look like . ( It may not look like much, but that is because it was the day after the snowstorm at about 3:00 when I took the picture and all the snow was starting to melt sooooo.......)

This is the snow that the neighbors across from us shoveled from their driveway.( Boy am I glad I didn't have to shovel our driveway because at 6:00 in the morning ,when it's like 6 degrees out, shoveling snow just isn't the picture I would've had in mind when thinking about Sring Break.)
We get the cars washed here every Saturday, and this Saturday wasn't any diffrent. ( Although I like having clean cars, why would we wash them when it is supposed to snow in TWO days? I guess the cars really needed a wash.)


My friend and I caught a ladybug when we went minni golfing. This ladies and gentlemen is Spotty.





This is Spotty's carefully desighned house that was built from twigs, leaves, ribbon, a jar, and rocks. Oh, and grass.


My friend Whitney andI went minni golfing and had the time of our lives! This is just one of those pictures that you take and just doesn't turn out but yet is pretty funny. We were showing each other the funniest faces we could make and then the flash went of and.... ugh.






Whitney putting the ball into the hole. Yep, it's pretty obvous who one the game.







OK, so we driving aroud because we had our floor getting worked and we had to be out of the house All DAY! We bought some Robin Eggs fromt eh store and gave Grant a blue one. 5 minutes later, he was out.






Isn't he cute when he is sleeping?








This is the fish that the family earned if we cleane the basement. Trust me though, it is not like we get a fish every time we work. Our dad owed us a fish and the basement was like nothing you have ever seen.9 Oh, we named the fish Snips.)









Whitney and I found a hole were you had to go through a cave. We found a Boo thingamagig on the wall an tried to be as scary as possible. I think we made the cut.





Whitney wanted to sit on the rock and I let her. I have to admit that she did do is on my part because I couldn't get her to fit in the whole picture when she was under the Boo thing.











Whitney and I.










We went to Dell Taco one day for lunch. Just thought that that might be important to incloud.













Maddie and Reid taught Grant how to pick his nose one day. He was quite fasinate by it and continued to do it the rest of the day. ( But he is way past that stage now. He has now mastered wiping it on others.

Our House

For those of you wondering what our house looks like here you go.



Isn't this a really pretty house? Yea, to me it kinda looks like something that comes out of either Martha Stewarts magazine, or from My Little Pony.

We, I mean I, like this " Popcorn" tree. It isn't actually popcorn, as hopefully most of you know. It grows cherrries, andthe smell is really good! OK, just ignore the random thought of the day.

Mom and Dad got a new chair and are very proud of it. he cushions even match the house!( But then again, why wouldn't they.) Yep, the bench is so special that we aren't allowed to do the following:
  • sit on the bench
  • touch the bench
  • breath on the bench( how interesting is that?!)
  • or even think about the bench





Another picture of " The Bench"

The Dancing Machine

This is Grant dancing to his favorite song, Burnin' Up, by the Jonas Brothers. He knows the words and everything, which frankly, we find quite sad. Anyway, the funniest part of the whole thing is some of his dance moves. So good luck to all that watch this. {Believe me, you'll need it.}

More of the Pebbbles


This is one of the boards that the girls made at Activity Days with their mom.





This is Maddie playing school with herself. They are learning about the U. S. A. Figures though, since she is learning the same thing in school.




This is Ellen with her viola. She has a concert coming up this Wednesday and is going to play in a duet and in a quadrant, along with the rest of the orchestra.



This is one of the songs that she is playing.




Reid got a football book from the school library and has been reading it 24/7.









OK, don't laugh, but this is Grant and his new camera that he got for Christmas. Every time I'm getting ny camera out, he runs and gets his too. { Thankfully he hasn't relized yet that it is fake, not real. We think this is because of the little pictures of animals that show up in the lense and change every time he pushes the button.}

When Two People Fall in Love

All Because Two People Fell in Love
When two people fall in love, chances are that they will get married and live happily ever after. That however is not true. After you special someone comes into your life, you tend to have many speedbumps in the road. One of the many speedbumps that people have is starting a family. The Pebbles Kids have parents who love and cherish their children. Even though having a family can be tough and often end the day with tears, there are moments in your day that will stay in your heart forever. Each child has something unique about them and they each bring smiles to your faces. Lucky for us, Daddy and Mommy were the two people who fell in love, and because, they have expirences that can't compare to any other persons.
