(contents of photo: several gum wrappers, a band-aid, a sacrament cup, a pen, a marble, and a chapstick wrapper)
The above items were confiscated from our eldest child yesterday at church. Kevin came home and emptied his suit pockets and these were the contents. Since I sit up on the stand (for those of you who may not already know, I play the organ. That's right, go ahead and get a good laugh out of that. They assure me it's temporary until the sister who did play returns from her mission.) I can't always see what's going on with my kids. Usually one child sits with me up on the stand so that Kevin doesn't have to wrestle all three of them himself. I don't know where the items came from (Eeeww! Let me gag about the band-aid), but my word! If anyone has any suggestions, helpful hints on how to get my 8 YEAR OLD to behave in church please let me know.

I don't have any ideas for you but hopefully someone will have ideas for you:) I heard about you pizza story I have to say that I would be very angry myself. I am very sorry that happened to you also. But it looks like everyone had a good time:)
Davis is a monkey in church. It is embarrassing. So when someone lets you know how to make them act good and listen let me know. Atleast Davis is good at school.
That is so funny! I love to hear things like that. What a wide variety of things. Did the band-aid come off of his own skin? Church is just such a guessing each Sunday, at least it is with us.
Hey I too love stories like that. These last few Sunday's have been horrible for us. I have ended up taking Coen out before church even starts? For Corb maybe you could try taking a notebook and pen and having him write down a few things that each speaker talks about? I don't know that is the best suggestion I have.
WOW! I'm impressed you play the organ! You're so talented!
Brian calls us the three ring circus in church and always apologizes to those widows who got the misfortune of sitting behind us that day. Now, one little lady lovingly calls us the three ring circus! We can only control our boys by splitting them all up. Sorry, that won't help you. Bri's mom once gave Koy this little book of activities that pertained to what was going on during sacrament meeting. It was pretty cute. I think she just found it at Deseret book. Boys are hard in sacrament meeting. Way to long to sit still!
He and Victoria are meant to be together...for her it is usually lipgloss, mascara, blush , powder and gum! Good luck! He is just Indiana Jones collecting artifacts!
or macgyver. That's actually who I thought of when I was listing all the items in the photo. Remember that show?
Haha- he is a little Macgyver! Invite me to your project blog pretty please!
One man's trash is another man's treasure. I'm not sure that is true for the bandaid but who knows.
I love the McGyver comment. Oh how we use to love that show. He would have fashioned himself some sort of cool contraption to escape from church all together. What you need is a set of grandparents that sit on your same bench, enjoy playing, and drawing with your kids, and jump at the chance to take them out for a bathroom break. They're pretty handy. Ahhh, peaceful Sunday sacrament meeting.
I love enchanted. I watched it with Scott and he even liked it (I think it's because they make fun of all the other fairy tale movies) but I have a song even downloaded on my iPod from that movie. She is just so funny, but one of my favorite parts is when Pip does his little Charades on the tray in the lunchroom. I like that show.
