Thanks for the tag Melanie! (This is the easiest tag I've seen so far).
This is a picture of Chad and MaKayla up at the Gateway at the Children's Museum. They had a blast!



All of my family members: Christensen's/Rasmussen's you have been tagged!
Pick your fourth picture file, and the fourth picture in it, then post it.

Understanding Toddlers

MaKayla knows the cupboard that her bottles and sippy cups are in. The other day she was whining pointing to the cupboard. I first gave her a sippy cup of chocolate milk (it seems to be her favorite). She kept whining, and since I thought she might be a little hungry I filled a cup of Kix cereal in a cup for her to snack on. The whining didn't stop. Then, I gave in and gave her a bottle. Finally she was happy! I think the picture says it all.

School Mornings

Every morning Jeremy takes Brayden to the bus stop. If you live in my neighborhood, you may have seen/heard my kids stick there heads out of the sun roof. They all (including MaKayla) like to yell, while the air is hitting against there face taking there breath away. Chad comes back letting me know how awesome dad is because he drives fast and lets them stick there head out of the window!

Chads Field Trip

Chad and his preschool went to the Fire Station for a field trip. He loved it! They let all of the kids put on a fireman's hat and jacket...Chad was pretty determined not to try it on. I begged and bribed him...(because it would make such a cute picture) but he didn't want to have anything to do with dressing up!

Rasmussen Family Reunion

My Dad's side of the family had a reunion this past weekend. We now have 100 members. My Grandma & Grandpa had six children 4 boys and 2 girls. We used to get together almost weekly. My Grandpa, Dad, and his brothers would get together and practice singing. They were amazing! They sang at many firesides, weddings, and funerals. They even sang for "Margeret Hulahan...she was the nurse on MASH", for her birthday. Because of this, all of us as cousins became close, and to this day are still good friends. My Grandpa died about two years ago, but the legacy he and my grandma left, is something to be proud of.




This is Chad kicking the ball....there is nothing "wow" about posting this, other than I think I took this picture with perfect timing...hee..hee.


If you can't tell we did three legged races! In this race, Brayden and Morgan were in the lead.


This is my Dad and my Grandma.



This is my mom and my sister.



The next three pictures are of my brothers and there families.

(He is single)









We had a program of a guitar player, and a bunch of lip-sync groups. Those that did the lip-sync dressed up. It was a lot of fun, and full of laughs.










Yes, the streaker is Jeremy! The old time song that he and my brothers did talked about a streaker....so, he ran on stage, everyone laughed, and he ran off just as fast.

~~~BYU COUGARS~~~

Jeremy & Brayden were able to go to the BYU game with my Dad and brothers this past week. Before the game started, Jeremy took Brayden to stand outside the locker room to see all of the players and coaches. He saw all of them, including Max Hall the quarterback, LaVell Edwards & Ty Detmer. Brayden thought he was so cool to be standing that close to them. He thought they were a lot bigger in person. Between having his own football game that morning, and then after the BYU game he threw a few balls with his uncles, and came home and played football some more...he complained before bed that his arm was hurting him....hmmmmm, I wonder why? I am happy that they both had fun! What boy wouldn't!

MaKayla

I had just given Kayla a bath...all clean and ready for bed. She decided to sneak back in the bathroom and put some of my eye liner on. I had to post this picture because she is so stinkin cute!!!!!!



~Tight Squeeze~
MaKayla has given us hugs for a long time, but now she squeezes our neck as tight as she possibly can. I caught her first tight squeeze when she was saying good-bye to daddy before work...I wanted in on the action, so she gave me a hug and Jeremy took the picture. Loves from my kids are definitely the best!
