Skating Plus

The kids had a fundraiser at Skating Plus. They had so much fun. I think Daddy had the most fun of all! The kids can't wait to go back. It was a great night.

Morgan trying so hard to skate. He loved it!
Savannah tried but after awhile gave up.

Isaiah trying really hard to skate!

Jr had the most fun of all the kids. He fell down so many times but got right back up and tried again. He's just like his daddy!!

Bryan had to join in the fun with the races. He did really good too.

Bryan had so many people laughing.

Student of the Month

So, I went to help out in Isaiah's class yesterday. I was stopped by the principal. She asked me where I was this morning. I asked what she meant by that. It turns out Jr got an award and didn't bother giving mom and dad the note saying he was getting one! What a little booger! So we took him out to dinner for getting STUDENT OF THE MONTH! It was our family, Auntie Kat, Auntie Jen, and Bryan's grandparents who went. We had so much fun!! We are so proud of him. Here are some pictures I took. I didn't get one with Jr and his great grandparents or Auntie Jen. We left before I could get one.

On the back of this his teacher wrote something. She wrote:

Fredrick is a wonderful student and citizen in our class. He always tries his best, and is a great helper too.

Cub Scouts

This is Isaiah's first year of Cub Scouts! He is so excited to finally be able to do it. He has already gotten 2 things signed off. On Wednesday, we had our first Pack meeting of the year. Isaiah was welcomed into the pack that night.

Here is Isaiah being welcomed into the Pack.

On the same night Jr got his Wolf brag bead holder that hooks on his pocket of his uniform. It was a great night all around!!

Soccer 2009!!

This year we have 3 in soccer. If that wasn't bad enough I signed up to be Savannah's coach and Bryan ended up being Jr's coach. I felt bad for my Isaiah, so mom signed up to be his asst. coach. We are very busy on Saturdays. We have lots of fun though.

My little Savannah Mae playing her very first game!! She still isn't into the games that much but she is getting a lot better. She only likes to play about 1/2 the game.
Isaiah has come along way from last year. He is doing really good in soccer. He is enjoying every minute of it too.

Jr is back to the way he played his first year. He could be really good if he would just listen to the people that are trying to teach him. He is getting really good. He loves sports. Next year he wants to play football.

Best Buddies!!

With all the other kids in school, Meeya and Morgan are feeling a little left out. They get to hang out 4 days a week! They LOVE getting into trouble together. But boy oh boy do they keep Nicole and I laughing. It's great having cousins so close by!!

Beau....My New Puppy

Back in July Bryan bought me a puppy. He is the cutest thing. He is 1/2 Yorkie and 1/2 Chihuahua. He is about 4 months old now. Morgan loves to bug him. He thinks it's the coolest thing that he can pick up a dog. Beau will let him do it for a little while. After that he runs and hides. Beau it totally my dog though. No matter where I am, Beau is right under my feet.

First Day of School!!!

I know. I know. Long time no update. So, I thought it was about time I did. Here are a few pictures from the first day of school.

Here is Savannah outside her Preschool class! She is so excited because she gets to go to the same school as her big brother's now. She loves going to school. Boy oh boy is she getting big.
Isaiah outside his 1st grade class. He is so happy to be in first grade. He is in a 1st/2nd grade combo class. He loves it!! Thinks he's really smart. My little guy has come along way.

Jr outside his 2nd grade class. He wanted a class with none of his friends in it. He wanted to make some new friends this year.

Strawberry Jam!!!

I went to a cooking class the some ladies at the church put on. This month was Jams and Jellies. I was asked to make bread for the class. We had so much fun, so I thought I'd try it on my own. I bought a flat of strawberries and got started. I asked my dad to help seems how he's made it before. Of course my little Savannah Mae had to help me make it. We had so much fun. It was so easy!! A flat made 3 batches of jam.

Savannah before we started.

Trying to figure out what to do.
Cooking away!

It turned out!!

MMMM so good!!

Cub Scout Hike

While I was on my walk. Bryan took Jr on his hike with his Cub Scouts. They had so much fun. Bryan wants to start hiking with the kids. Jr stayed in front of the Pack the whole time. He didn't complain once. Boy was he tired when he got home. Here are some of the pictures Bryan took along the hike.

March for Babies!!

On March 16, 2009 I got to participate in my very first walk for March of Dimes. This charity is something really close to my heart. My little Isaiah was born at 28 weeks and 4 day. He fought hard to stay with us. He had 6 surgeries by the time he was 2. I'm walking every year from this point on! Every baby should get the chance to be born healthy. One day that will happen and I will be able to say that I helped make it possible. Here is a little slide show. Hope you enjoy it!!

Science Center

On Saturday Jr went to the Science Center in Orange County with his Cub Scouts. Boy did we have a lot of fun. I ended up draging Bryan out of there. He's still bugging me on when we are going back.
