This is what Collin and I saw when we woke up Saturday morning.

Sorry for the graininess. I had to take the picture through our screened porch.

 I feel like I personally haven't been keeping the Sabbath Day holy lately and I wanted to have good habits in place before Collin is old enough to really understand what's going on around him. So Sunday Michael helped me brain storm on a few ideas of reverent things we could do as a Family on Sunday.

 I originally called it our "reverent box" but Michael, trying to be funny, started naming of all these ridiculous things like, "Go out to eat" and "go swimming". When I told him those things weren't appropriate for Sunday he said, "Man mom, you're taking all the fun out of Sunday." So the box was instantly renamed our Fun Box.

It's a little bare right now but I hope to add ideas every Sunday.

Oh, and just so you know, the one in the box says "Make a tent and read scriptures" (had to make sure we kept it a little reverent)

Monday is our FUN day!!!! 

After Collin helped me weed and water my garden (he tends to water himself and me more than my plants)

we watched daddy mow the grass. Collin is becoming pretty attached to his daddy. Every time he gets up he runs through the house until he finds Michael and then gets all excited. I love it :)

 

We went to the pool after Michael finished the yard but did I remember to take my camera!? Of course not!

However I did get pictures of our after pool snack. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa Boyd. (But just so you know, Michael and I barely got to eat ANY!)

 

 I found my old Primary Partners book that I use to use when I taught Nursery and Sunbeams so I decided to use it for our FHE lessons.

Monday's lesson was on "I Am a Child of God"

 Collin really got into coloring and gluing his crown together but refused to wear it!

 Thanks for being such a good sport Michael.

I snapped the picture below literally seconds before he ripped it off his head and threw it on the ground.

 For our FHE treat we went and got mine, and Collins FAVORITE treat. 

Chocolate Elvis from Planet Smoothie!!!

I forgot to bring Collin his own cup so I had to share with him. Every time I asked for a sip and went to reach for it Collin would shake his head and smack my hand away. His lips never left the straw and it was significantly lighter when I finally did get it back.

 

We ended the night with Collin's nightly ritual of running and hiding when it's bed time. Except this time his pants were a little saggy. You can thank that heavy diaper from drinking all that smoothie for slowing you down :)

 More proof that Collin loves the water, he brought his float to me and was begging to go swimming this morning. (Yes I'm lazy and let my child wear the same outfit two days in a row. If it's not extremely dirty of course.)

 Here's the tantrum that ensued when I said no :)

Did I mention someone figured out how to take his diaper off? 

The picture's blurry because he took off when he saw me coming after him.
