This blog is being set up as a type of journal for Jocilyn (6) and McKenna (4). Also as a means for others to keep up with their antics and hillarities, as requested.
Jocilyn just finished her first year of elementary school. She adored kindergarten and is excited to be a 1st grader. She is a fantastic helper who is in a big hurry to be a grown woman, make up and all. I'm not sure how to slow her down- girls are scary! She is learning how to ride a bike, loves to plant flowers. As i write she is wondering what exactly is a "glob," and who am i sending it to?
McKenna is crazy in the best way! She is a ball of fire, a kick in the pants, and overall a hand full. She comes up with the funniest stuff- i havn't figured out how her little brain works, but i love it. The great outdoors is where she prefers to be, actively investigating nature and riding on her "truck." The aforementioned "truck" is made for a toddler... but we can't get her off of it, she loves that thing. This dark haired, fair skinned beauty is prime for sunburns- she says, "Ugh, this sun is killing me!"
Quoteworthy:
Earlier this week mom said, "McKenna, please pick up the dang popcorn!" Kenna replied, "it isn't 'dang,' it's yummy mom!"
Jocilyn, "i just tooted! (ha!ha!ha!)" McKenna tattles, "dad! sister said excuse me, but it still stinks!" ... i ask you, is there punishment for that? There should be, we were all stuck in a car together!!
On a cross country flight to Florida, all of the kids had been talking about the fun of "blasting off." We, then, are sitting on the plane when McKenna asked/yelling, "When are we going to explode!!!?" (mom and dad of course thought the flight might be grounded because of our kid)
This morning (6/13), McKenna stated she could speak a different language. I asked her what and she started signing (well moving her hands all around) and saying, "you know, blah, blah, blah...."
Also this morning, " mom, can we go to grandma's while you shop?" I said "No, she is doing geneology." Jocilyn asked, "what is that?" McKenna told her that grandma was out of "odgy" so she needed more "odgy."
Jocilyn asked, "Mom, is McKenna the boss?" reply, "no" Jocilyn turns to McKenna and says, "listen, 'squirt', let me explain it to you....... " .... and I'm a boss because i'm the best daughter"
So! There you go! Our first "glob!" Be patient as we figure it all out- mom is retarded with the computer! Love to you all,
Joc and Kenna

Hi Girls. That is a wonderful blog. I am very impressed with your skills, and I miss you two a lot. I am glad you were able to come see aunt britt and uncle scott get married.
This is fun. I love reading about your experiences.
You too girls are hilarious! I love the "explostion" story. I love this site so much, I'm thinking of following the crowd here and doing a blog for the boys. Keep up the good work of keeping your mom and dad on their toes!
Love Neighbor Amanda
