So Colton is just like his dad, they could be "addicted" to video games IF we had the time and did not set guidelines. As many of you know Dan got a new PS2 system from his boss at work for x-mas. Colton absolutely enjoys the benefits of this gift with his dad (specifically the Star Wars lego game-thus his addiction with Star Wars). Well, the other night he broke the controller in his game'ing excitement (this is the 2nd one that has fallen victim to the boys-NOT cheap!). SOOO Colton now has to earn money to contribute to the purchase of another one before he can play games again. He immediately handed over all his tooth fairy money (he worked hard for his last tooth at the dentist-he had to be sedated and had it 'pulled'). So he is trying to make all his half loose teeth-fully loose. I suggested to him that rather than losing that many teeth why doesn't he do some extra chores around the house to earn some money. So yesterday he spent over and hour raking and cleaning up leaves in the back yard (for 25 cents). Of course, Sterling got 'recruited' to help in his plight-but Sterling is our BEST helper and does not seem to mind! I thought it was cute seeing them working so hard-it gave me insight into the future when they will be able to take over allot more of the yard work!
Oh yeah! there is a picture of the Jedi himself on Halloween. Maybe he can use the force to help make more money! ha ha ha

I so wish that you guys lived closer...Dallin and Colton would have a blast together!
haha this so reminds me of my brothers & all the game systems they wore out growing up! I think the chore idea is brilliant!
Send him to California...I'll put him to work.
