First Day of School 2011!!!

Nathan off to class!

Grant's not so sure about this.



Everyone was excited for school to start! It was a bittersweet for me. I love having the kids home. All of the kids have wonderful loving teachers! They are what teachers used to be like in the old days. All about the kids. Nathan has been ready and wanting to go to a "real" school like the girls. First day of kindergarten finally came for him and he was excited! Grant on the other hand has been a little lost. He doesn't know what to do without any of his siblings home. It has been an adjustment for him, as well as me, because his behavior has definitely changed...


Wow! 8 months has gone by and not one single post. Yikes!!! Everyone is growing up soooo fast. I went to grab a doll for my primary lesson yesterday. It dawned on me as I was searching the house that my girls don't play with dolls anymore. Reality set in for me. The girls are all grown up and the dolls are all gone.

Reindeer Cupcakes and Christmas Day!!!!




And of course Grant has Pa pa's gla-a-asses.




Uncle Clint made crutches for his kids made out of PVC pipe. Ever since the kids saw them they have been asking for a pair so guess what they got for Christmas?





Grandma and Grandpa came over for the decorating party also!




Hmmmmm
Cousin Michelle was also there 1 out of the 3 times we decorated today.

Yes I went all out with full on dyes and hfcs in everything. The kids had a blast and we made memories today! I let them decorate them all by themselves including Grant who mostly ate instead of decorate. I just love being a mom!

ThanksGiving and JiNgLe JoG!

Thanksgiving at the park with the Aker family! Good times!






Kite preparations!



Thanksgiving feast at school!
Nathan made his own pie!


Grant and I went down to watch the girls at their school Jingle Jog! Basically they buy bells from the school and tie them to there shoes and run around on the field. I guess it at least got them out of doing class work! :)




DISNEYLAND 2010!!!!!!







Santa's Reindeer were pretty fun to see.

Watching fireworks.
Tantrum TiMe!


Emily went to the Jedi Training also and was able to fight Darth Vader!
Grant was a little intimidated.
Darth Maul decided to walk right up to Kami and stare at her for a few second. Yikes!
Nathan's FaVoRiTE part... Jedi Training. He also got to fight Darth Vader!

So much fun with the family! It was fantastic only having to pay $70 for all of us to go to Disneyland. The kids had a blast and one day was plenty for the us! Good times!
