So, this past weekend we went to Carey to celebrate Cam's birthday and see the fam. Cam and his brothers have been talking a long time about the unicorn that lives in Aaron's field. Now, Emma loves unicorns but she also insists that they are not real. Well, her dad and uncles have been telling her otherwise for awhile and this weekend they proved it to her. They painted and decorated Patches and left him out front and when Emma came out she saw a real live unicorn! She believed for about 1/10th of a second. That little stinker was less than enthused. She proceeded to tell them that the horn was made out of paper, and that she could see the tape on it. Then when Aaron asked her about the pink stars and hair she proceeded to point to Aaron fingers that were stained a bit hot pink. She is too smart for her own good.
Maren on the other hand LOVED it! She stood on the couch looking out Grandma's window all day staring at it and pointing and then she would say enthusiastically "CORN!"
It was quite the excitement in Carey. Numerous people halted to stop to stare, some took pictures, others brought their kids out to see it. Several people talked about it at church. It was hilarious! What I realized all weekend long was what a fabulous family we have! They are truly the BEST people ever! My kids love all their aunts and uncles because they are sooooo good at playing with them. Grandma and Grandpa spoil them rotten. Grandma gives marathon 4 wheeler rides, Grandpa is the best story reader. The guys tease and hassle them constantly but they LOVE it, the gals are super sweet to them and play constantly. So, thanks for the great weekend, we love you!
Oh, and lastly because I am a nerd. I have recently tried to coupon a bit to save some money. My trip to Walgreens this morning. Stocking up! However, it wasn't nearly as a good deal as what Erica hooked me up with while in Idaho, so I think I will stick to just paying someone else to do it because it is a lot of work!

Those girls adore you and so do I. Thanks for all your hard work! I LOVE YOU!

Oh yeah a new post! I have heard about the unicorn and I am glad I got to see it. Emma is too smart and not gullible enough to fall for the joke, but I thought it looked great in the picture. How fun! I am with you on the coupon thing, I just can't seem to make it work for me either. Happy Birthday Cam!
What a lot of work to make an unicorn out of a horse; you guys must really love those children!
