So for something to do today...we went to the dollar store in Edgewood. The kids think that is the BEST dollar store EVER!! It is nice and clean!! Tanner has been wanting to get army men forever, so he could use his rubberband gun that we brought home from Alaska last fall!I couldn't believe how many choices of figures we had!! Firemen, Policemen...cowboys and Indians, but NO army men~hmmm....so we got 2 bags...cowboys and Indians...and the Policemen! (HOW cool is that police DOG?!)
So we sat the figures up on his shelf in his room, and SHOT away!

Steady....gotta beat Mom!
I had to use my nails...which...by the way, worked well!
And when you get through knocking them down...stack them like A Barrel of Monkeys! He got 42 on one indian~ talent! Tanner informs me...."I'm the best in the west!!!" 
He was in such deep thought!!
He says... "this police dog bit the guys head off!!" (He just happened to find one with his head missing!!) Boys will be boys!BEST 2 bucks I've spent in a long time!!!!
On another very sweet note...I got to go with Jaycee for her first time to do Baptisms with the Youth at the Seattle Temple last weekend!! I can't believe she is this old already!! What a wonderful experience for her, and such a joy for me to watch her adorable expressions on her face!! She was in AWE!
So today....(random blog...and very long...geez!) Jaycee comes in Tanner's room while we are shooting rubber bands and says..."I just cleaned the bathroom, and....ugh...Tanner needs to learn to clean the toilet himself!!" She says...I'm tired of cleaning up after him!!(Don't think I am ready for her to be a teenager!!!~)
Okay...I won't expand on this subject too much...but lets just say...one morning while putting my make-up on...he strolls in after just waking up and makes his way to the toilet. He's watching me, and I say...TAN...watch what you're doing!! HE looks at me very seriously and says..."I'm a trained proffesional" ~Say no more!!
He turns 8 in a couple of months...cub scouts...whew, haven't done that in about 15 years!!!

Haha how fun!! I LOVE shooting down army men with rubberbands! I think when I went I could only find one bag of army men, so i got another of police men! These toys are NOT just for kids! Looks like you guys had fun!
I can't believe Jace is old enough to do baptisms!! Thats insane! Tell her to STOP growing up!!
Love you and miss you all!!
HAHAH!!! I agree with you AND Kay!! Those army men are really fun. At Mariposa one time, I didn't have army men, so we ripped paper up and drew little people on them and then shot those with the rubberbands! Oh, I love it!
And Jace really does need to stop growing! At least in the attitude stage! haha LOVE YOU GUYS!!
