http://kenandjulie.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 27, 2014. 160; I love my kids being home! 160; I love kids piling in my bed in the morning. And this morning Neil brought a game to play. (It seems that Neil is never without a game. That boy LOVES games! So while I nursed Emma, the boys played Rat-a-tat-cat. Nothing like a good rain to make the day fun. Ice cream in a bag. 1 Tbsp. sugar. 1/2 cup half and half. 1/4 tsp. vanilla. 1/2 cup rock salt. Oh my goodness, Isaac didn’t get a nap this day and we went somewhere right before i...

Payne Family Fun: July 2014

Monday, July 21, 2014. Summer Break in full swing. Jessie’s been trying out some new face paintings. She found the tiger one on Pintrest…her new best friend. Ken went with the Teachers and Priests for their week-long to Zion’s to go repelling. He got to do some pretty fun hikes, including Angel’s Landing. We missed him, but it was fun to see his instagram feed and here about his adventures. Another tiger….this one with yellow eyes. This summer we’ve tried to have “happy Wednesday’s&#...Summer mornings...

Payne Family Fun: August 2015
http://kenandjulie.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 7, 2015. The rest of Tuesday and Nauvoo. Neil was the first to wake up, followed by Emma and they very sweetly rubbed Isaac’s back to wake him up too. Neil and I tried to keep the tops spinning. Isaac was the first to find the sheep to ride on. And he loved playing house in the little cabins. Neil wrote names for us before they closed up. And I just loved their stick horses. 8221; The demonstrator was really confused, but what Neil really wanted was for her to use the tools and mak...

Payne Family Fun: September 2014
http://kenandjulie.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 29, 2014. 6 months and chocolate donuts. One fun thing we did with all my family while dad was here was go to the newly renovated Bean Museum. They have this huge moose statue out front. Jessie was being silly after setting the table one evening and “pre-salted” Ken’s plate since he always needs to add more salt to whatever we’re eating. Funny girl. 160; Thanks for coming. While my mom was out she was a sewing maniac! Emma got to try an apple for the first time. She had a bl...Of cou...

Payne Family Fun: October Begins….
http://kenandjulie.blogspot.com/2015/05/october-begins.html
Thursday, May 21, 2015. More lunch fun. Cookie cutter are so fun. Sandwiches and biscuits are just better if a cookie cutter has attacked them. Isaac loves helping in the garden. Here’s the tomato he picked for me. I love that he brought up one tomato in a bucket. We went back to look for more. At one of Spencer's soccer games Mark was reading to Neil and a couple of other kids listened in too. Before the first session we had some creative kids build us some “cup temples.” Here...For Abbie’s ...

Payne Family Fun: April 2015
http://kenandjulie.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 17, 2015. Oregon Caves and Baseball. Unfortunately we when we got there we found out the Neil wasn’t big enough to go in the cave and so he, Isaac and Emma stayed with Ken in the lodge lobby and played games and watched a movie while the big kids and I went through the cave. The fist thing you see in the cave is a little stream named Styx from Greek mythology. There were lots of cool features in the cave on the walls and ceilings. So we hadn’t made hotel reservations for the last nigh...

Payne Family Fun: April 2014

Tuesday, April 29, 2014. Made it to March! Emma and Daddy hanging out before bedtime. The dyed noodle necklaces we made a while ago were hanging out in the toys and Isaac found them and put them all on. One was too small to fit over his head so it was his crown. He wore them all morning until it was time for church. Neil brought this picture home from primary. It’s his first “person” drawing and I just love it! After a while the ducks and the fish were full. (Rachel had brought a whole trash bag fu...
