Happy Birthday Katie!

Katie turned 6 last week. We're a little behind! But here is phase 1 of the celebration! Katie's new hair cut!
She always needs help opening presents...at least she always get help!


The always awaited dress from Aunt Emily!

On Katie's birthday her class went on a field trip to Alberstons. Her and Maya made wraps with lunch meat and cheese to show how easy it is to eat healthy. They came home with a bag full of food and coupons to get more food.

More to come...she's having another party today. Lucky girl, huh?

Surprise!

Look what came to my door!

Thanks David, I love you too!

Happy 32nd Birthday David!

My blogger brain still can't work backwards, so here are the pictures....not in the order intended!

Party Guests

We had a wonderful birthday dinner for David and the ever anticipated ice cream cake. It might not be beautiful, but it tastes heavenly!

I got him a new wedding band....finally. He lost his original one about 3 1/2 years ago. A replacement was way overdue.

Birthday Boy!

One last thing... Congratulations to Rex and Aleece on the birth of their triplets this morning! Alex, Riley, and Zachary are doing great. And they get to share their birthday with Davd!!!

We can't wait to see them!

Finally...A New Camera

I apologize for the long time between posts. Our camera has not been working and how interesting is a post without pictures? Well, I finally went and bought a new camera since Circuit City was having their going out of business sale. It is charging as we speak, so we should have pictures soon.

A lot has happened since I last posted. Charlie was baptized, Sydney turned 4, and Audrey turned 2. January and February are busy months in our house. David's birthday is Monday and then Katie's is the next week.

David said I had to write this funny story...

Last weekend we were coming home from Portland and David dropped me off at a baby shower in Salem. He took the kids to McDonalds for lunch and it made him very ill! When they got home he told the kids that he needed to lay down for awhile. Sydney asked him if he was going to go to sleep. He said, "No, I'm just going to lay down." Then she asked him, "Do you need some peace and quiet?" He answered, "Yeah, will you give me some peace and quiet?" Sydney responded, "We're kids, we don't do peace and quiet!" She's definitely the philosopher in the family.

Keep checking back...I promise to do better with the posts!
