Kaylinisms 10

Hi everyone. It's been a while since I blessed you with the wit of my 5 year old. Here are some of her latest sayings that tickle my funny bone: *One day she found a spider in the bathroom. She told me it was a "chinchinilla" and talked about the "chinchinilla" all day. Saying things like: "I cannot believe we had a 'chinchinilla' in the bathroom." (In case you didn't figure it out - she really meant Tarantula - which it wasn't by the way.)

*She likes to make jewelry with her beads. But instead of laying out a pattern she makes a "patterin"

*A couple of weeks ago Kaylin went to Walmart with Grandma. As they passed the swimsuits Kaylin commented on the "zuchini's". (Translation: wait for it........bikinis).

*Since Kaylin was about 2 she's been saying "Holy Smoley". I still think it's the cutest. But lately she's been adding on to her favorite saying. She says "Holy Smoley Kwok-a-mole". And if that wasn't enough - she's started saying "Holy Smoley Kwok-a-mole Macaroni Salad" (Don't know where she comes up with these things.)

Question for fellow bloggers

Does anyone know how to work the "Pages" gadget. I've seen it in other blogs where people have different pages (home, info, pictures, etc). I know you go into the "add a gadget" function but I'm still not sure how to get multiple pages listed.

Steamboat Springs

Last month we went to Steamboat Springs for my nephew's wedding. It was a mini-vacation for us. We headed up early and stopped off in Glenwood Springs for the Strawberry Days Festival. Good thing the festival was free because we paid $6 for a chocolate drizzled strawberry kabob. After that we drove over to the carnival. Kaylin had a blast on the rides. I was hoping to go on the ferris wheel with her but she didn't meet the height requirements yet. For now she must stay on the kiddie rides. It didn't make a difference to her. She LOVED the roller coaster. I have to say - I think James and I enjoyed watching her face as much as she enjoyed the ride. After our fun in Glenwood we made our way to Steamboat and met up with family. It was time for food, fun, family, wedding and more food, fun and family. We had a great time. Steamboat is a very beautiful and picturesque place. James and I came home with the plans to retire there someday. Here are just a few pics (mostly of family).

My Almost Professional Photographer

We recently went to Steamboat Springs for my nephews wedding. I'll share some pics from that trip later. But for now I thought I'd share a picture that, believe it or not, was taken by my 5 year old daughter. She did pretty good, I'd say.
