Our day at the park!

Well as you know I got a knew camera :) I am learning how to use it so her are some shots I took. I took the boys to the local park and they have ever been to one before they had a blast.
Also Emmalee is home and I am so happy she had a great time. Pic #1 Quentin Pic #2 Zachary and Pic #3 Emmalee.

Our Costumes!

Well here they are! they are self explanitory. They were a hit and I think pretty unique. I would post pics of the party but I will let Trisha post the ones of them I do not want to ruin it for her. But I will say it was perfect. I loved there costumes and their party this year was better then any of the other years. Her deco was great and so was the food. Thank's trisha for a great night. Sorry we did not stay longer.

Rest peacefully Maggie May.

There is blog I have been visiting for the past couple of months and it belongs to a little girl by the name of Maggie. I have faithfully been praying for here and her family. They were told not to long ago that nothing else could be done for her. Today I went to her blog to see how things were and her last post was that last night she joined her Father in heavan. My heart is so heavy. I can't beleive that earlier I was compaining about my problems. Mine are nothing compared to this family and what they are going through. Maggie May enjoy our Father in Heaven and your new playground in the sky and if you run across a little boy whom I love so much give him a huge hug. And to her Family I am truely sorry for what you are going through.

Today is a big day!

First things first! Today is my Anniversary with Steven. Holy cow where did that time go!!!!!!!!!! And my, how it was a wonderful year and I am looking forward to spending the rest of my life with him. He is wonderful and I could not ask for more.
Honey if you read this I love you and thank you for a wonderful day.

Second, today is Trisha's Birthday. I want her to know how much we love her. She means so much to me and us. Thank you for putting up with my brother and our crazy family. You have made such a huge impact in my life Trisha. I Hope you have a wonderful day. And thank you again for being you. Now we will celebrate on Sat. YEAH!!!!!!!!!

P.S. I heard From Emmalee she loved the plane ride and will be calling her on Wednesday to check in on her. Wow do I miss her. Thank all of you who have kept her in your prayers you are all so wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am Gonna Miss Her :(

Well today at 2:30 pm Emmalee's dad is going to pick her up from our house and first they will head to Disneyland for the trick or treat fest and then they are heading over to the LAX airport and flying to ACA, Mexico.

I have never spent more then tree days away from her before. This time she will be gone for 10 days. I can not stop crying.

Do not get me wrong. I am excited for her she is going to spend this time with her Dad, step mom, both sisters, aunt,uncle, and grandma and grandpa. She has never been on a plane and she is a little nervous and so am I. He promised to call when they arrive there and back here and to let me talk to her on Wednesday. But for those of you who know our situation he probably will not hold his end of the deal up. I just really hope so.

Her Dad said we could send money with her if we want little trinkets from there and I think we will she will enjoy the shopping because she is such a girly girl! I also am going today to buy her a disposable camera. I hope she has fun the bad part is it is supposed to rain almost the whole time they are there.

I so want to tell you how proud I am of her. I told her teacher about this vacay and they put together a independent study program for her and if she completes the pack she will not even be marked absent. That made me happy but anyway back to the reason I am proud. She not only finished her normal homework packet for this week but she finished the 12 pages of math and 8 pages of english she only has to do five times each 5 sentences and 5 daily journals. she busted her butt so she wouldn't have that much homework for her trip what is left will easily be done on her flight there and back.

Well today Steve has a half day and we are picking her up from school at 11:30 and we told her she can lunch where ever she wants and of course she chose WIENERSNITZAL (sorry Aunt Lisa). Then we will come home spend some time together and then her dad will be here to pick her up.

How is this possible!

How can 1 woman manage to be with the two best looking men on this planet! in the same lide time LUCKY DOG!
(Well minus my hubby of course) I just thought I would share my feelings on this. Hope you do not mind my venting!

HOW SWEET ARE THEY!

If we tell Zachary to give anything love he does it is now his favorite thing to do. So here is a series of pictures of Zach trying to love on Quentin. I think Quentin enjoyed the love for a change usually he is being beat up instead.




The middle was my favorite! I love our boys and our girls they are never together at the same time to get pics of them so I will wait till halloween.

Happy Birthday Mom!

Today my mom turns 56! The reason for the fairy is because she collects them. I think they tend to look evil and she does not so I picked this one which is nice and Want to post a Happy Birthday to her. We had her over for dinner last week and she will be gone all day today so she will read this later Steve , all the kids and Myself love you and hope you have a wonderful day today. Drive safe today and Call me later.

Taylor's Party!

Well we had a party for Taylor on Sat. We were celebrating her 11th birthday! She wanted a Hollywood theme. And is some of the decor. The red carpet in the grass going to the table that we all made hand prints in Plaster of Paris like in Hollywood. The Hollywood sign and the walk of fame with star that have the names of all the famous people. Oh and our oscars. I thought everything turn out well everybody had a good time!

She got lots of nice stuff clothes, healys, scrapbook stuff, books, toys, crafts and the first season to Full house on DVD. That is her favorite show. She also got a lot of money and gift certificates. After the party she was allowed to have a slumber party there were five girls counting Taylor. They had pizza and watched movies all night, and I mean all night! Taylor was the first one asleep at 11pm and the other four including the 7 year old stayed up till 4am. HOLY COW! I went to sleep and kept getting up to check on them. Then in the morning they had donuts and juice thanks to good ole Dad. The last girl left at 2:30pm, And I am just now starting to finish the house work.
How many of you rememer slumber parties? I remember if you were the first one asleep you were tortured I guess they do not do that kind ofstuff anymoreI was kind of glad I did not need the mess.

Happy Birthday Dad!

Well Today is Oct 16th 2005 and today is the day my Dad turns 59! Holy cow Dad like the picture says how many IS that in dog years? We all hope he has a wonderful day. He probably will be working all day. You see he works all the time so later I will have to call him and arrange with him a time to go out to dinner with my family and my brothers family! The next picture will explain the work thing with my dad so please cont......


My dad has always umpired on the side for a job. When he retired from Knudsan/Santee Darey and he worked the for 25+ years I think. He continued to umpire softball and started taking on other sports he now does football track(i think),vollyball,soccer and softball. I even remember him trying basketball. It is something that he loves and it keeps him healthy and active. So that is why it is almost impossible to meet up with him but maybe if we offered sizzler he would stop and grap a nice dinner with us. so anyway have a good day Dad we all love you and will talk to you later.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY OLD MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GO QUENTIN!!!!

He went all the way across the living room and now can take the kitchen chair and walk across the kitchen and Zachary can do both as well. I am so excited. I would of posted a video but I can not figure that one out!

My boys and Zach's new accomplishment!

So I just realized that I have not posted about the twins since the bottle thing and even that was not pics of them it was their bottles in the trash so here it goes. This is a picture of Zachary wanting Quentin to get down after lunch today when Zachary is done I guess he feels we all should be done and on his schedule.He also kept tickling his toes and Quentin just thought that was the funniest thing as you can see. They will be 13 months on the 17th they are doing so good. O.K. HOLD ON TO YOUR PANTS THE NEXT PICTURE IS BIG NEWS I AM SUCH A PROUD MOMMY TODAY.
TAAADDAAAAAA!!!! LOOK WHAT HE IS NOW ABLE TO DO. If you stand him up and put something in his hands he can stand alone with no support he even will crawl over to something stand up then let go and just stay there. Quentin can do it also just not quite as steady and not quite as long. When he gets better I will take pictures of him to but for now this will have to do. They love Emmalee's room so if the door is not latched tight they sneek in there to play. so that is where they are.
And here is Little Brother Quentin knocking him over. If you look behind Zachary you can see Quentin squeezing in and Zach is starting to fall forward. I caught him in my lap thank good ness.

As excited as I am it is also very hard to watch them accomplish some of these things. My oldest never could and sometimes watching them will pull at my heart strings but I also am able to find joy in the moment I know that Evan is proud of these boys and it is partly because of him that I have been blessed with these 2 wonderful miricles. I feel like he helped pick them out for me. The first steps will be hard for me and from the looks of things I think it will be very soon for them. Do not get me wrong I thank the Lord daily that they are not in a wheelchairs like him and that they are healthy but I still miss him and wish that Evan would of been able to experiece this stuff. But he was happy regardless. I am looking forward to playing in the yard, running around and sports but I think for the rest of their lives I will always think after every accomplishment Thank You Little Man for everything and Thank You God for the Blessings.

Go Angels!!!!!

Knott's Halloween Haunt!

Well last night we all went to a local theme park that does there park up for halloween and there are mazes and there are hundreds of monsters roamimg around scaring you. Some of the rides are even haunted! We had a good time but I was so tird by the end of the night because it is from 7pm till 1am and My body is not used to that kind of stuff.
The guys went matching and it was not on purpose. So I hsd to capture that moment! Like my big brother says I am just one big camera happy crazy person.
Here is us girls waiting in line to get on ghost rider. I honestly do not remember it being that scary. Poor Becca I think we tramitized her!
Waiting in line to get on the log ride and it was not only haunted but the scariest ide and event there I think. We went through 6 or 7 mazes and they were really scary also in fact my brother and Steve even jump and yelled a few times.

And for this picture I just really liked it I think it was also the log ride. I wish He would smile in some of these pics. Actually he was just about to say something when the pic was snapped. We all Love Love Love Love and did I mention Love halloween. Just counting down the day to Trisha's party.

I am stumped this year!

Every Year Trisha my sister in law has a awsome halloween party. I thought I would share with you some of the costumes we have done over the past few years. We always dress up together but this year the guys have agreed to do it with us so I am stumped on what to be this year. Steve and I are HOPING to be santa and mrs. Clause but we will see if that does not work I do not know what we are going to do. Any way enjoy the pics if yiou could of only been a fly on the wall for picture # 1 we were bar maidens and I would love to share with you the fun I had But I am unable to recall most of that lovely evening I will tell you I ended up spend the majority of the night in the bath tub throwing up. Pic #2 we were Ursala and Malisifent andI learned my lesson and I have never and I mean never been that drunk again. Shame on me. amd pic # 3 we were the evil queen and old hag from Snow white and the Twins were already here so I was on the safe side because I wanted to be all there if the NICU called me with an emergency. I did not visit them that night after because I looked way to scary. ENJOY if you have any Ideas for us feel free to let me know!

we made the Ursala out of a bra an material clever huh?

This could be a family CRISIS!

Well last night they lost:( what are we going to do if they lose this to the Damn Yankee's :0 Tonight we will be in front of the t.v. watching every play and screaming and cheering them on. But hence the title if they do not go all the way in this series things in our family will turn to morning. Steve just called and he and a friend purchased tickets for the next round. If they do not go then they will get the money back but I know him and my bother would love to go and be there for the next part of this exciting time. Lets all keep our fingers crossed.

They call Vladdy the Arch Angel so lets hope he steps up tonight to rescue us. Emmys favorite is Benji Molina and last night he did step up now we just have to hope he can pull it off tonight he might be slow when he runs but at least he can bring in some of those points.


GO ANGELS!!!!!!!!!!!!! GO ANGELS!!!!!! GO ANGELS!!!!!
LETS SHOW OUR LOVE!!!!!

School Pictures are so expensive!

So we went to Sears and these are the poses I picked for the girls to go on my wall, so sassy they think they are. Emmalee had to have her hair straight. I try and do it different for every picture but I am running out of things to do with it. Our girls are getting so big. Taylor will be 11 this month and Emmy is already 6.

Well back to Monday!

This weekend went fast but fairly well. Friday I took Emmy to her daddy's and Taylor came over for the weekend. Sat. we went to have her pictures taken at sears which turned out wonderful. And today we went to church and stoped by Trisha's for Vanessa's little get together for her birthday. It was nice to relax today instead of running running running sometimes I feel like the energizer bunny.We started planning taylor's b-day party I thought that was fun. It is a hollwood theme. I will talk about that later if you have idea's I am always open I love to plan parties and I think I do a good job at it but I love idea. I hope everybody had a wonderful weekend now back to Monday.
