<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

My boy wanted to make an edible bridge.<br />
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
he was inspired by a friend who made a rice krispie square pyramid for an end of the year project at school.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
so we gathered the necessary items and he got to work.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
it looked great.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and tasted yummy!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
another great week.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
things are not always perfect.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we fight, we cry, we make mistakes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but we love each other and make the best of most of the moments.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we apologize.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we forgive.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we laugh, splash, giggle.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we play and challenge each other.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and we enjoy our summer together.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
more fun to come next week!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i didn't take too many.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i was too busy enjoying the moments with them.</div>

the next minute you want that person to be right there with you.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
to laugh, hug, cry.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
to play with and be silly.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
you don't want to be without that person.</div>

ever.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

here's my Foto memory of the day.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we were visiting friends and the kids love their hanging rope chair. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so much they did fight over who got to sit in it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
this was one sweet moment with my boy.</div>

It's been beautiful spring weather this past week.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the kids came home from school one day and got out their Playmobil and Lego boats and people and took them down to the muddy puddle by our driveway.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i watched them play.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
since it was to be bath night i decided i wanted some fun photos of that puddle.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i asked them if they wanted to participate in my photos.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
with a resounding YES! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
we got ready.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
these are the results of enjoying the mud. </div>
