Beautiful lights

We started our Christmas season with a visit to Zoolights at the Phoenix zoo.
The kids were so excited to see all the animals that were in lights. Here are some pictures from our wonderful adventure.

2nd costume of the day...

Miss Bris can't make up her mind what she wants to be for Halloween. So she wears one then another. We will have to she what she picks.

Pink Skelton

This is just one of the many costumes she will wear in the next couple of days.

Weston is the WINNING WORKER.

Yesterday we went to Weston's school to see him receive his first award. He was the only one from his class chosen for The winning worker award. A Winning Worker must always have their homework done on time and always have excellent working skills in the classroom. So as you can imagine we are so pleased with Weston. Congratulations Weston. We can't wait to see all the other great accomplishments you will have. We love you!





With great achievements comes great rewards. With that said we headed to, Weston choice , McDonald's for fun, food and more. We had a blast. So next time we will see where he wants to go!

I am ready for November 20th!

This picture of Edward and Bella really got me excited for New moon. They look amazing.
See for yourself......

Isn't she lovely

Bristol decided one day she wanted a haircut. She was looking for my scrapbook scissors to do a zig zag in her hair.
But she couldn't find them. But she did find the straight ones.
She took a chunk out of the middle of her hair.
I couldn't look at it anymore.
So we cut it. Well not me, but Julie Davis!
We love it! She looks so grown up.

KINDERGARTEN

My first picture as a big student.
Weston loves school!
He goes all day and never complains.
He's made lots of friends.
He even thinks a little girl named Addie is cute.
I asked him why he likes her.
He said I like her face.
Have a great year West!

Bris started preschool

She has been buggin me to go to school and now it's happen. She loves her pre-school. Mrs.Udall is her wonderful teacher. Weston had her for 2 years , so Bris is happy to have her too! She is already learning a lot! This is going to be a great year!

The frog days of summer

In Nana and Papa Dannels pool look at we found swimming around. Bristol loved him. She wanted to bring him home. We let him go at the near by park. Nana and Papa always say they live out in the country. Maybe they are right.

YOU HAD A BIRTHDAY

Just wishing you HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BRIAN!
We love you!

I can wish upon a star....

I saw this and wanted it!
Until I remembered I have kids.
So maybe someday and a lot of money later.
I didn't know I had such spectacular taste!
Peacock alley is where I feel in love .

KINDERGARTEN

Nothing like the 1st day and having the FORCE BE WITH YOU!

So this morning we head out take Weston to school.
Not preschool!KINDERGARTEN!
He wasn't sure about the whole thing.
I know he will have a great time!
We love you Weston !

Last day of summer fun

School starts in one day. This summer ,well it's gone!
So before all the craziness starts.
We wanted to get wet one more time.
There is a great place to go .
Tempe beach park splash playground.
So we did!
With great friends and great fun why not!

OSCAR THE GROUCH

I am teething. Watch out!
I will make you grouchy!

This week was crazy...

The first thing that happen was my sister and her family showed up at our door from Ohio. We were all so surprised and happy at the same time. We love to see them.

The second thing Graham had surgery on Thursday. He has had so many ear infections and need tubes. All went well and he was great. This will be so nice not to have him screaming because his ear hurts, and you know that only happens in the middle of the night.



The third thing was an Er visit yesterday. So Randee, my sister, needed a ride to the airport so I didn't mind to do it. So she came over and we were running around getting things done. When we hear a big crash. I see Weston on the ground not crying or anything. So with out notice he is screaming. We look at his foot and there was blood gushing out everywhere. He was playing with his nightlight. This is not your grandmothers nightlight. It's a metal rocket. I think it weights 3 lbs. He dropped it right on his big toe splitting his big toenail in half. So we wraped it up and we were off to the ER. It was pretty nasty. He got cleaned up and had xrays. The good news is he is ok but has a hairline fracture. So no swimming for a week. I think that is the hard part for him. Let's pray next week is better.

Opening night at the best show on earth

I haven't been to the Circus for years and I was happy to take my kids. I was even more happy that we went for free. I won a 4 pack of tickets. We were 15 rows up. The seats and the view were incredible. This is Weston during the pre-show. If you come early you are invited to see the acts close up. Weston wanted to see the train the circus rides to town. So he was a little disappointed. But, it didn't take him long to turn that frown upside down.


She was amazing! Here are the elephants painting. These girls were huge.
Here is the huge door that all the wonderful acts came out of.

Double trouble. They were crazy for going in that thing.

All Bristol wanted was an elephant. She was so happy.



This really is the best show on earth.

Summer fun

The slide was really slippery. We were flying'. Weston loved this slide.
The next Mohammad Ali.
NO CLIMBING IN HOOP. Bristol can't read, as you can see. Silly girl.



G and H got in the action.


We went to BounceU and had a blast. Our friends came with us. We were the only ones there. We loved it!
