Just the Girls.... Valentine's Dinner

Kesson and Brittney

KodiAnn and Brynlee

Brittney and MaKayja

Just the girls!!!

We had a fun filled day on Valentine's Day!!!  Randy and Brandon had to go to work so Stacy and I decided that we would spend Valentine's Day together with the girls.  We made a yummy dinner and ate by candle light.  We gave the girls little bags with socks, bubble gum and finger nail polish in them.  The girls played and played,  and we set up Stacy's blog (yeah, it's about time, girl).   Anyways thanks Stac it was a ton of fun and I am so glad we got to enjoy the day together with the girls!!! 

Jasper the Friendly Cat...

This is our new cat.  Since Missy came up missing a couple of months ago the girls have been so sad.  When we went to my brothers house this weekend he needed to find a new home for Jasper so he is now the new addition to the family.  The girls think he needs to live in the house but I say "NOOO" outside is a fine place for him.  

Little Miss Lady Bug!

Randy gave all of the girls a big stuffed animal for Valentine's Day.  KortLyn absolutely loves hers.  The girls think it is fun to sit her on it because she gets so excited.  

We love you KortLyn Shay you are our little Lady Bug........

McKesson Ann

So we went and took family pictures a couple of weeks ago.  Unfortunately I was so disappointed in the job they did.  I decided to come home and take a picture of McKesson on my own and this is the end result.  Who says you have to go to the studio to have cute pictures, just take them at home.  

1st Grade Manners Tea

Every year the first grade does a Manners Tea for the school and parents.   They have so much fun and work hard for a long time to learn all of the dances.  I always get the biggest kick when they do the chicken dance, it is so dang cute.  MaKayja was dancing with her partner who was Miles and she would get a little bossy when she felt he wasn't doing the things that she thought he should do.  Sometimes it was even the eye and her saying "Miles" with a cute little smile to catch his attention.  She is so full of personality and spunk sometimes I wonder.  After they perform they get to have the manners tea, and have cake, nuts and a drink.  After this is all done they get to have their usual class Valentine's party.  What a fun day for her and a joy for all of us to watch.  Good Job Sissy!!!!! 

50's Murder Party

Friday night Aunt Kelly and Uncle Justin hosted a murder party and we had a complete blast. For those that don't know what these are, they are a completely fun.  The theme for this one was the 50's. . You all have a script and a person that you are going to play, you dress up as that person and act out their part.  In the end of the game you try to guess who the murderer is.  On this one, the murder took place while they were all having a BBQ,  a storm came up so all of the players went inside the house except the guy that got murdered.  But there is always twists in it so the it is hard to figure out who actually did the murder. In this one Shahna was the murderer and she was also the fiance of the guy who had been killed.  (what is it with you girl you are always the murder in the end).  You also have dinner, so since this was a 50's theme and a BBQ one we had hamburgers,  fries and milk shakes.  Yum, Yum!!  Anyways if you haven't hosted one of these they are well worth it and so much fun.  Thanks Justin and Kelly for the great night.

aLl BuNdLeD uP.....

A couple of weeks ago I was so tired of being cooped up in the house after having my hysterectomy, so I told Randy lets go for a walk. The sun was shinning and I thought maybe having a little fresh air would give me the pick up that was way overdue. We bundled up KortLyn and McKesson and went for a stroll and had a great time. I thought she looked so cute in her puffy coat and hat with her little rosy cheeks, so I had to take a picture.

Silly Girl...

KortLyn makes us laugh all the time with the silly things she does. If there is a burp cloth around it has to be in the mouth hanging out like a dog with a toy. The best part is she often growls at the same time. What a joy she is to have in our home. We love you little one!!

Oh, Beeny Baby...

As anyone can imagine with a house full of all girls (and of course Dad) they are often playing dress up. We have all kinds of dress ups from fairies to princesses to doctors and of course the cow costume. Anyways MaKayja and McKesson thought it would be fun to dress up KortLyn a little, so they found this little beeny hat. I thought she looked so cute and had to have a snapshot of it. She is such a little cutie!!

Exercise

Okay so MaKayja and McKesson were playing the other night and walked out of their room in this little get up (gotta love it, right). Anyways the next thing we knew they had put in the exercise DVD and were goin to town. Randy and I were laughing so hard I think we could have wet our pants. All while this was going on and we were laughing so hard they could have cared less and continued with all the fun. Man I wish I had the energy they have (maybe I would look half way decent in a swimsuit in that case, the things we can learn from our kids if we would just follow their example). Oh and, gotta love the sports bras, right.
