I know it's been a long while since I posted some funny things my girl says, so before I forget the latest two, I thought I'd share them real quick.
My girl gets two gummy dinosaur vitamins in the morning time. The other day, after I gave them to her, the first one jogged up her arm saying, "WEEEEEEEEEE", jumped in her mouth and was chewed up. It made me smile. Then I watched as she picked up the second dino. This one jogged up her arm proclaiming, "Wait for MEEEEEEE!!!" before jumping into her mouth to be chewed up. I got a good laugh over that whole thing!
And then, this morning, as part of our school time activities, we were playing a Disney princess puzzles game, where you have to make the different princesses with the different pieces. My girl has only seen a couple Disney princess movies (edited, of course), and so is not as familiar with all the girls in the puzzles. We got to the one with the fishy tail and the red hair, and I asked my girl who it was. She didn't know, so I told her that it was the Little Mermaid, whose name is Ariel. She started giggling. She said, "Ariel? That is a funny name. How about Hair-iel? That is a much cooler name!" OK, Hair-iel it is.
What a funny girl!
So, we have just been rocking right along. We're doing lots of fun school time activities, and Logan is working and looking into college options, and we're just doing our thing. We did get a canoe from Craigslist a few weeks ago, and have taken it out on a couple of the lakes here, and it was amazing and fun. My girl and I went a month ago with a friend from the ward in their canoe on the ocean, and it was WAY tippy, especially when the two 40lb girls both wanted to put their hands in the water from the same side of the canoe....But Logan has solved the tippy problem with ours by putting a wood beam and floaty things on either side. He can now stand up in it and rock the boat without tipping over. We went on Auke Lake a couple weeks ago for about an hour, and it was beautiful and sunny. This last Saturday, we went on Mendenhall Lake, and tried to paddle out so we could see the glacier.....we misjudged the size of the lake. We got to the point of seeing the waterfall, the icebergs, the visitors' center, and a portion of the glacier. We decided to turn back while we still had some juice in our arms, and get to a spot away from the icebergs so we could take a break without floating into one. It was amazing seeing all the icebergs, and seeing things from a different angle than we normally do, and of course, after we had turned around and were paddling back, there was a loud crash- we missed seeing the glacier calf, but on the upside, we weren't subjected to the waves, which was a good thing since there were a lot of big icebergs around at the time. So, we ended up being on the lake for about 2 1/2 hours, and of course afterwards MY ARMS WERE DEAD! They were sore for the next couple days, and made me realize how wimpy I am. But we had fun, and are looking forward to going again. So, hooray for adventures and trying new things! ...Pictures will be uploaded soon of this new adventure....
