KARATE HALLOWEEN PARTY

2010-10-17T14:14:00.000-07:00

Last night was the Karate Halloween party. We had a lot of fun. Eliza was Cinderella, Emma was a witch and Anna and I were salt and pepper shakers. They had games, potluck dinner, pumpkin craving contest and a costume contest. Anna and I won for the most original. Eliza was a little scared the whole night because there was lots of scary costumes. But in all we had a great time.

ED'S BIRTHDAY

2010-10-17T13:49:00.001-07:00

I don't know why this is underlining the whole time. SORRY It was Ed's Birthday on Sept 20. We got to have cake and ice cream with him on the computer. It was fun to get to celebrate with him. I think we got the better deal.

Eliza wanted to have her picture with her daddy doll. I love the purple tutu.

SAVANNAH AND TYBEE ISLAND

2010-09-12T17:30:00.000-07:00

This weekend we went to Savannah and Tybee Island. We loved it. Why can't we live there? Anna did not want to leave the beach. She asked on the way home if we could go to the beach next year for her Birthday for a week. I said sure that would be so fun. So on Saturday we hit Tybee Island then Sunday we ate at the Crab Shack the girls love seafood me not so much. But that is something I know that they love. We had a great time. Can't wait to visit the beach next year.

ATLANTA AQUARIUM

2010-09-10T07:21:00.000-07:00

We went to the Atlanta Aquarium last weekend. It was very busy lots and lots of people. Shantell is here visiting and she really wanted to see it. I think we should go again so maybe next time we all could enjoy it. My girls love going there. That is the one place they always choose to go to. They are getting Dolphins soon they can't wait.

FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL

2010-08-14T13:55:00.001-07:00

On Monday August 9 the girls started school. We were not to happy to get back it did not feel like we even got a summer. But I was very proud of the girls they got up with little hassle and got ready. They both really like there teachers so I am hoping that this year goes really well. I wanted to take a picture of Anna in her class but I guess she is to big for that. But here is Emma in 2nd grade and Anna is in the 5th grade. They are growing up way to fast for me. Eliza had to be in the pictures she thought she was going to school with them. She even put on her new tennis shoes like Anna. But no such luck this year. I want to keep her home as long as I can. I think they grow up way to fast as it is.

ANNA'S BIRTHDAY

2010-08-03T19:34:00.000-07:00

Today is Anna's 10th birthday. I can't believe that she is that old or I guess I should say I can't believe that I am that old. When we were in Utah she wanted to go indoor skydiving for her birthday so that is what she got to do. We also had dinner, played at the arcade, and played 2 games of bowling. We had a great day. Most of my family came. Today we went to the movie and had dinner at her favorite place. She got to talk to her Dad to he sang her Happy Birthday which I know she loved.

Also the Sunday before we left Utah, Shayla their cousin invited them to come and ride horses they all loved it. I wish that they could do that more. I know that it is something they all love. Thanks Kyle and Shayla.

ANNA AND EMMA'S WALKS WITH GRANDMA

2010-07-24T22:35:00.000-07:00

My mom goes for a walk every night. Sometimes the girls will go with her. They love it. They can ran and play and not worry about getting in trouble. They can just be there goofy selfs. They love to catch ladybugs and watch the water in the canal. I think there favorite time is when my dad has just watered the corn and hay it is all muddy and they can just play all over in it. Emma loves to try and get her shoes stuck in the mud. I love that they can go down there, as a child I would go down there alot. It is so good for them to enjoy some farm life. Thank you mom for letting them just be kids.

HORSE PARADE AND WEBER STATE FIREWORKS

2010-07-18T22:23:00.001-07:00

We went to the firework show at Weber State they have been doing every year for I think 40 years. If we are in town we make sure to go to that one it is always great. We went with my sister and her girls (except Stefanee and she was sure missed) we had snacks and talked waiting for the show.

HOAGLE ZOO

2010-07-10T22:42:00.001-07:00

It was my sister Sandee's birthday on the 6th of July. She wanted to go to the Zoo. (not my favorite place). But my kids were so happy they love that place all of them love animals alot. I am sure they had something to do with that. We decided to ride the frontrunner down to Salt Lake City. It took us about 3 hours to get there not a good choice in a car it would of taken about 1 hour. But we could not all fit in one car so we thought that would be the best choice. The kids really like riding the train that is what they called it. Over all we had a great day it was not to hot so everyone really enjoyed it. It was long but fun. HAPPY BIRTHDAY SANDEE!!! WE LOVE YOU.

Anna's class had a Mother's Day lunch. The kids served us it was fun.

As some of you know Ed is deployed and before he left I ordered Daddy-Dolls. So far I have only got pictures of Emma sleeping with him. That is because she has slept with me every night since he left. I need to go in the other girls room and get a picture them. The girls have really loved the dolls.

Eliza wanted me to take a picture of her that day and she wanted to show her dad how cute she looked that day.

Eliza with Ed on it's A Small World I think that was one of her favorite rides.

As you can see in this picture Eliza did not like Mickey or anything that was dress up for that matter. But they finally started to grow on her. It just took the whole week.

You could hear the waves crashing all night. It was the best. The girls competed in a Karate Tournament on Saturday. They did great. Anna got 3rd in weapons and forms. Emma got 3rd in weapons and 4th in forms. I was very proud of them both. There was a ton of people and it was really busy. But they did great. GOOD JOB GIRLS!!!!!

Part of the Festival was hot air balloons. We thought that they were going to launch them. But it was not part of the plan they just light them up at night for the glow. We sat there for about 2 1/2 hours waiting and waiting then finally people started to leave so i asked someone what was going on why did they not launch and they looked at me really funny and said they don't larch they just glow at night. It was pretty anyway just not what we were expecting.
