Kids...

Got the kids' pictures taken the other day. All I can say is... WOW! Just one extra person and simple, easy tasks are now all day affairs. Oh well, life is fun!

She doesn't like this...

So I hear an excited voice calling from outside, "Mommy, look it!", yes, those are cockle burs. I said, "Jacer, what have you done?!" and he turned to go back outside saying to his sister, "Her doesn't like it!" But instead of getting mad, I was glad for something to blog!

And then we proceeded to pick them off, ONE by ONE!

Teresa & Josh came for a marathon visit! We loved seeing them and had so much fun! I'm still dreaming of that grilled pineapple!!

Our little protege!

Happy Birthday and First Day of Preschool...

She's 5...


Ready for school...



Blowing out her candles...

Presents...

Happy Birthday Marin, we love you...


Tea Party anyone???


Snow White...

She's got the best, of both worlds...

Well, I'm a little behind, but I think you all understand! On Sept. 4th Marin Lee turned 5 years old!! It was also her first day of preschool for the second year. She misses the kindergarten deadline by a few days, but absolutely loves her teachers, learning and of course the social atmosphere. She loves her friends. We celebrated her birthday that night with Matt running around in the morning first, getting her a birthday treat to take to school, then getting her to school and then after work he took Marin to pick out her cake. She had a great day and is so happy to be 5! Saddie, thank you for the Snow White outfit- she didn't take it off for almost 2 days! She loves it! Grandma Montaño got her the Hannah Montana ensemble and she was so excited, she had to try everything on immediately! Grandma also brought up a little something for Jace, his favorite basketball players jersey. That would be Carlos Boozer (to his mother's horror!! D. Will people!). Every time he's playing basketball we have to yell, "Go Booz! Yeah Booz!" Let's just say, I can see why he likes Boozer so much, they make about the same number of baskets!
