Constant Entertainment

We've had a fun three days together! Elizabeth left Sunday morning to attend Grandma Torgesen's funeral up in ID/WA. The girls were absolutely perfect in sacrament meeting, thanks much in part to the Hunsakers for sitting with them! We then were thrilled that Grandma Sarah could spend Sunday night and most of the day Monday with us. She played with and sang to the girls and they loved it. We went shopping, to the Museum of Art, and to the Creamery for lunch. Oh, the wailing and gnashing of teeth that occurred when Grandma had to go. The girls loved the time with her, as did I! The girls have been angels (for the most part :) and we've enjoyed the Daddy/daughters time. We'll see Mommy in a few hours.



Sunday was family dinner time at our house to celebrate Tanya's birthday (thanks for coming down everyone!). We were all excited to have Dad, Donna and Carissa back from their exotic European trip. Here is Grandma Donna surrounded by grandkids...must be gift time!



We absolutely love it when Kadence is a pensive eater! She does this often, and as is par for the course,...



...Tayah tries to follow her example!

Now, why the entry title Constant Entertainment? Well, as the three of us have been together the past three days, my sides have been hurting from the funny and cute things they say and do. Here is proof:

Tayah:

-Promptly after waking up, she beams and exclaims: "I had a good sleep Daddy!"
-"Daddy, Ariel sings 'Aaaaahaaaa Ahahaha!" (you know which part of the Little Mermaid we're talking about. The girls can sing these notes over and over again!)
-"Chack a teme moi" (supposed to be "chante avec moi," as we sing the ABC's in French)
-When we take her to watch her hands, we tell her to stick her "hands in the air." Without skipping a beat, she'll say "Hey Ho! Hey Ho!"
-Sometimes can be so stubborn. If we reprimand her and ask her to say "sorry," she'd rather fester for quite a while before bending. That's our little red-head.

Kadence:

-She's obsessed with the word "forver." Case in point: "I just want to stay here forever!" or "I want to eat ice cream forever!" or "I want to hold you forever Daddy." So fun!
-"Mommy and I had a spicy drink." (a Sonic creamade slush)
-"We flushed Tasha up to Heavenly Father." (after losing yet another fish last night)

How lucky are we to have these girls?!
