Our First Trip to DISNEYLAND!

We just got home from our first family trip to Disneyland! I am so sad to be home! We had such a good time! My parents and Chad's parents went with us and for the most part everyone did pretty good! We spent the first three days in Disneyland and California Adventures, then we went to Sea World, and the last day we spent at the San Diego Zoo. The kids did really well and had a lot of fun in Disneyland. The hottest day of our trip we spent at Sea World and the kids were a little run down by then. The day that we went to the zoo was the coldest day of our trip and so the kids were done. I enjoyed the zoo, it brought back memories of our honeymoon! We had so much fun there! All in all it was a pretty good trip and the kids did really well, even if their favorite things were riding in the stroller and swimming at the motel!

We made it!

Sorry it has been so long since I've written! We have finally made it into our BEAUTIFUL home! We moved in the weekend of the 15th of August. We finally have all the boxes unpacked and most of the pictures hung and such! Chad got our sod put in last week so we are not in such a mud hole! He was sweating it there for awhile, thinking that we wouldn't make it before the water was turned off. Little did he know that he barely made it before the snow! I have been having a blast buying new decorations and such! I have to enjoy every minute because this just might be my last new home! Hunter always asks me, "Mom, are we going to live here forever?" I think he is sick of moving! Me too!
Brielle is getting so big! I can not believe that she is six! Where does time go? She is in first grade and loving it. Of course she doesn't like the learning part, she is our little social butterfly! She is so excited for Halloween! Chad went to lunch with her today and he said that she and her friends were talking about what they were going to be for Halloween. The others were saying things like Princesses or Dracula, etc. Then they asked Brielle and she looked at them and said "the Queen of Egypt!" (Cleopatra) He said they just looked at her like "What?" She loves mummies and Egypt. She even checks out books from the library on mummies! Good thing we love her!
Hunter is as rambunxious as ever! He is always growling like a dinosaur or screaming like a girl! He has started preschool and loves it most of the time! He likes to sing the Black Sabbath Iron Man song. His preschool teacher said he sang it so much it made her want to go rent the movie! He is quite the handful, but such fun!
Jaycie is also growing by the second! She is walking and talking. Her favorite word is "DaDEY!" She calls everyone that! She likes to tell everyone "HI!" and wants them to say it back. She won't give up until she gets a response! It is so cute! She is just as defiant as the other two and when I tell her No to something she looks at me and then does it again! I was hoping for a sweet, mellow one. My mom says the mother's curse works and GOOD!
Well enough rambling! I am going to try and do better at entering my posts more often! Ta Ta for now!

We will survive!

Here is the latest! We should be able to move into our new house by the 1st of August! YEAH! Everything is finally coming together!
Brielle and Hunter are like boxers in the ring! I swear they are constantly at each other! I remember those days with Blake! Its a good thing I know they love each other!
Jaycie is getting so BIG! She is so close to walking if she would just quit being such a chicken!
Chad is the best hubby ever! He is so good to help out with everything! I love him tons!

THE HOUSE!

Well we are almost there! Things are finally starting to come together! They just installed our BEAUTIFUL timbers and front door today. We have been waiting for that for a few weeks now! The next step is get our flooring going! Man is it hard to make these kind of decisions with such little samples to look at! We will keep on truckin!
