More Vacation

The next day we drove to Palmyra and went to see the Sacred Grove which was just beautiful and these pictures are taken the day it didn't rain, which was nice. We stayed at the Palmyra Inn which was quite comfy and close to everything we wanted to see.

The last day we drove to Niagara Falls and really enjoyed the maid of the mist boat which takes you up close to the falls!

Playing outside!

It's been so beautiful this Spring, I don't know why I didn't notice it as much last year.

Everyday at the Salmons!

Isaac has to help out now with everything or he will feel unincluded.
Cali the same.
Thanks Amie for the glaze recipe, these were delicious!
Isaac chillin! Which, doesn't happen very often. In fact, when i was vacumming today, he was chasing it so he could ride on it.
Three going on 16!

UH OH!

Isaac likes to say "uh oh" after throwing his food down. He even genuinely acts like he didn't mean to do it. I think thats why it makes me laugh and I know it shouldn't.

Owen's birthday party

Cali's friend Owen had his three year old birthday party last week at Heritage park. Cali really enjoyed playing with all her freinds. I say it was a blast to see them all running around the park together.
The tire swing was a hit!


Owen enjoying his presents.
Cali picking out the goodie treats!
They were chanting, "faster, faster"!

The Salmon family

We are having a blast here in Michigan with the wonderful weather outside, the family time we can share together, and the best friends we could ever ask for!

Happy Birthday MOM!

My Mother turned 52 yesterday and is still so young and fun! She livens up every room she walks in and is a forever friend to everyone she meets! I love her so much!
Here are some things I love about my mom:
1. She speaks only kind words about everyone
2. She will never let you feel unwelcome
3. She can brighten your day with her upbeat attitute
4. When life gets down, she will always think of the bright side.
5. She will love you for eternity and then some!

Spring Time!

It's spring here in Michigan and I'm so lovin it!

Cinnamon and what?

One morning I made cinnamon and sugar toast for Cali and Isaac and when Cali took a bite she said, (with a disgusted look on her face), "Mom, this isn't cooked". I then said, "No, I put it in the toaster, it's cooked". She then kept chewing for a bit, and said, "You didn't cook it". I then tasted it, and quickly spit it out. It was so gross! I had used salt instead of sugar. (Poor Cali). I then looked over at Isaac's toast and he had thrown his on the floor.

The cazy toddler!

Somehow, this sweet innocent little boy has turned into this a wild boy who runs around all day destroying everything in our house and grabbing, pushing, hitting, and throwing anything that looks fun! It's all fun and games untill someone gets hurt and you bet there is an incredibly tired mother at the end of each day. And then, you can't ignore the fact that it's all madness while he is smiling and laughing at the same time. Those cute little giggles seem to keep me sane while he has been trying to drink out of the toilet water. All I can say is, 8months more to go before he turns two!
