This is how...

we punish our kids!

Sun Valley!

A few weeks ago we went to Sun Valley, ID for a little ski vacation. We met up with 2 of Kade's friends from high school who we love dearly!
The Lodge was probably the most fun.
Kade can never take a serious picture.

They had bowling in the Hotel
I made everyone go skating with me.

We had a really fun time!

Watch out figure skaters, here we come!

I've been dreading this, but

it needs to be documented. I will laugh someday right? A couple weeks ago I walked into the living room downstairs to see this picture with Ty standing in front of it holding a golf ball. It had given us 3 years of pleasure, so I guess it is not too bad right?

The day was full of frustration, tears, self-control (on my part), among other things. I want to do a log of my texts to Kade through the day. It was March 18th.


Me -> Kade 10:23am

Call me as soon as you can! (I attached the above picture). Here is why...we can kill our son together...there goes our tax return.


He called. I cried. He calmed me down.


Me -> Kade 11:47am

Jimmer is on the cover of si (sports illustrated)


Me -> Kade 11:55am I attach the picture below.


That's right, that is a puddle of pee on the ground!!!


side note : It was freezing outside and I let him just stand like that for 10 minutes outside as his punishment. I am painting a really good picture of myself huh?


Me -> Kade 2:19pm


Using lr44 batteries. Can you bring some home?


Me -> Kade 5:32


And to just add to the day Ty just pooped and peed in his underwear while wearing his orange ski bib!


Kade -> Me 5:47


I am going to stay in Aberdeen good luck.


Me -> Kade 6:03


No biggie...your son just dumped his entire bowl of dinner on the floor...life is great.


There was a lot of sarcasm in the above texts! But now we have a bigger and better t.v.. And to help Kade's wounds to heal faster he bought himself a PS3!!!
