I'm a Rockstar!

Today Ashley put on her silver necklace and my sunglasses and told me she looks like a rockstar.

Stockton Thunder Rocks!

We went to go see the Stockton Thunder Hockey Team kick butt! The kids had a ton of fun. They thought that staying up late on a school night was great! They borrowed this fuzzy yellow hat from a cousin.

They are so silly!

CJ lost his first tooth! and then a second!

On Friday at 2:30p CJ lost (and swallowed) his first tooth eating a hot dog. The next day at 10a he lost his 2nd tooth! Not so much lost as mom saying "let me touch your other loose tooth" and gently pulling at the same time. In my defence... i noticed that it was only attached by the tiniest thread and i didn't want him to loose it during his soccer game and swallow this one too.

He was so funny during the game because he kept showing all the kids his new hole in his mouth and he kept sticking his tongue through the hole and smiling it at us- even when he was the goalie!

He is growing up so fast! I have been in denial about my baby growing up. He is 6 years old, in kindergarten, knows how to use a computer, and has now lost 2 teeth. He is definitely not a baby anymore. :-(

whats that smell?

We smelled a burning smell in the kitchen but couldn't find it for the life of us! We searched and searched and it seemed to be coming from everywhere and nowhere all at once. The next day there was melted ice cream all over the floor and the fridge had stopped being cold. Turns out that this tiny little piece that kept the fridge working had actually burnt and melted! The piece is actually an all white part. A new part and $250 dollars later... we have a working fridge! woo hoo!

Determined CJ

Poor CJ got sick and had to stay home from school, his dad and Liz had got him a balloon and he was determined to keep playing with it. When he took a nap he kept that balloon gripped in his hand the whole time!

Ashley won the District 9 level

We got to go to another award ceremony. Ashley won at the district 9 level. She has now been entered into the state level. We are so proud of her!

Gma Stone should definitely get part of the award since she was the one that gave Ash all of those great art lessons!

Ash was so excited because she got a metal along with her award certificate.

Ash's teacher asked her to bring in her metal and certificate so she could show it to her class.

Utah Day 5, Calin's Bday

Today is Calin's 6th Birthday! To Celebrate we went to the dinosaur museum at thanksgiving point. We went with G&G Stone, The Buells, and the Berrys. It was so much fun!

Ash thought that posing like this in front of the megladon was hilarious!

I cant even imagine a turtle this big!

Ash said she liked this dino the best.

It took a lot of convincing to get CJ to get this close to a dino for a pic.

This place is awesome!

Cousins are so much fun

The kids loved the water portion of the dino museum. they got to make the sand into hills and dams and put the little plastic trees and dinosaurs on them then make the dam break and wash away the dinos.... and then do it again. They stayed in this one section for over a 1/2 hour. They had a blast!

They are so funny!

After visiting the dino museum we went home and make dino chicken nuggets for lunch.

We went out to iecream and CJ got birthday cake flavored icecream with sprinkles.

In the evening we went to "Kangaroo Zoo" an indoor bounce house. The kids had a blast! It was like 9 degrees outside and they were running around sweating having a great time.

here kitty kitty!

CJ liked this one.

Ash taking a rest

Mom, this birthday was great!

After the bounce house CJ wanted hot chocolate with marshmallows but he wanted candles too so we made some toast for him to dip (which he loves to do) and put the candles in it and everyone sang happy birthday to him. It was a great day!
