HAPPY 6TH BIRTHDAY J.T.!!!!!!
Yesterday was J.T.'s birthday and we celebrated all weekend long. Saturday he had a party a G and Papa and all the cousins their. I made him an Optimus Prime cake. Which he loved!! He got lots of great gifts. Sunday we went to Aunt Kristy's celebrated along with super bowl. But he hit his head on her fireplace and got a little cut on his head. He does NOT like the sight of blood. Thank goodness no visit to the ER. Just a little scratch. Monday the kids didn't have school so we went to Legoland. JT has been wanted to go since July and we told he could go for his birthday. It was beautiful day out and it wasn't even crowded. The longest we waited was about 10 minutes. We had a great time and rode everything we wanted. He even got to pick out a lego set and had some money from his birthday to get a set also. Now I can't believe he is 6 it has gone by way to fast!! Happy Birthday bud!! Love ya!!

Well January has come and gone. And what a month it was Katie and JT both are playing ball this year and trying to get them to practices is kind of chore. But they are loving it. Also I turned the big 40 this year. And you know I don't feel any different. We went to Echo's pizza and celebrated with yummy pizza and cake. On the 29th Billy and I celebrated our 16th anniversary. We took Katie and JT to California Adventure and had a great time. Ashley went the day before with Michelle and her kids then babysit the next day so she didn't go with us. Well in a few days JT will be 6 years old and its his turn to celebrate.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!! We sure did the kids got everything they wanted and more of course. We spent Christmas at G and papa's and at Grandma and Grandpa's. The week before Christmas Sherry and her family came and it was a jam backed week. Saturday we took family pictures and that was a lot of fun and some really great pictures. Sunday Ashley , Sadie and Jenny were in the church Christmas program and that was real pretty. Monday Sherry and I took the kids ice skating in Simi cause Bryce was working and the rink was decorated for the holiday. The kids had a blast!! Thanks Bryce for getting us in!! Then we spent the rest of the day at Cindy's. Tuesday I got the girls shopping and that afternoon we went to the Aquarium with Jeremy and his girls. Meg and Gwen hadn't been since it opened so they loved it. Wednesday Billy took the kids shopping then to say goodbye to Meg and Gwen then it was off to Grandma's for some carolling with the Howard fam. JT got into this year singing his little heart out.

Everyone met at the Chicken Dinner place and ate some yummy chicken and sang Happy Birthday to her. She had a great time and a happy birthday. This past weekend we went to St. George for my cousin's daughter's wedding. It was really nice and a lot of fun seeing everyone. The kids were excited to see there cousins from Florida and had a great time running around. Billy also had a Birthday on the 10th and we went to Disneyland because he got in free and ended up getting a pass too. We had a lot of fun! JT had to take him on Star Tours of course and than on to Space Mountain. It was a great time and I think Billy had fun too!

I took pictures but the computer want let me get them so I can't put up any. Sorry!! Hope to get it fixed soon.

FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL!!!!!
Today is a first for all 3 kids. We have one each school. Ashley started High School. I can't believe it. 10 years ago she started Kindergarden and now is a freshman. Its crazy! Katie started Middle School. And was very excited she wanted to go early. And last but not least, JT started Kindergarden!! He went on a tour of the school yesterday and told me he didn't want to go to school anymore. But he was really excited once we got to school this morning. Below are pictures of all 3 and one of each. I drive in circles to get the kids to the different school. They start at all different times. It was a little nuts this morning. Pick up should be interesting this afternoon. But we'll figure out something.
