Our Silly Side


Even though Kollan might not want me to post this picture, I think everyone ought to know his deep dark secret- he can be silly. Most people might think he is so reserved and mature, but he's actually so much funnier.
Lately his big thing is, whenever I ask him to do anything (even little things like, "Can you please get me a drink?"), he responds by snapping to attention, and saluting me with BOTH arms while saying, "YES MASTER!" We call it the double salute, and I can't stand it- it drives me CRAZY- which is, of course, the reason he does it. Well, last night I gave Karter (remember he's just 3 1/2) a snack in a bowl and when he was done he handed me the bowl. I said, "No, YOU ate the snack. Please take the bowl to the kitchen." He came over and got the bowl, looks at me and says, "Yes Master!"
Oh, they think they're so funny!
I love the cute things that little kids say though. This morning Karter was playing "waiter" at his pretend restaurant. I asked him what they had to drink and he told me they had apple juice or "mountain dude". Cute.

Its rough when we get picked on. :) I love the picture with your funny faces. I'm glad I found your blog so I can keep up with what you are doing. So... where do you live? And I didn't know you were in the military. What branch and all that stuff? Did you have to do boot camp?

Cute picture! We miss you guys so much! I think your boys (Kolan included) are great--and funny. That cracks me up that Karter said it, too! What a fun family.
