Saturday (Work Day)

Lance and I decided it was about time we started teaching our girls about cleaning. It is important that they learn how to work too. We probably should have started this a while ago since they are now 8 and 5! They were excited to be able to help clean especially since I let them vacuum their own room!! One of them would hold the chord while the other one vacuumed. It was good to see them have to work together to get the job done. We gave them each a whole $1 :) (which they were thrilled about). My favorite part was when Jena went and got a mask for herself when we got the Pledge out! She got one for Emilyn too - but Emilyn wasn't as willing to wear hers. I love my children!! :)

I love the Picture collage at the top of your blog. Jenna and Emilyn look so much alike, its so obvious they are sisters. :) Maybe I should teach Nicole to clean then maybe she wouldn't make so many messes!:) HOpe life is treating you well. We are coming to Utah in June, if your around we will have to do lunch. Take Care,
Kati

ha! this is hilarious. She wouldn't want to inhale all that dust you have in your house! :) (like there is any!) It is official that your blog is better than mine. I like the pictures on the top! Mylee still talks about Jena and Emi once in a while. The girls look so little and cute in the collage. Maybe I will post a new blog one day. ha!
