Father & Son campout and Valentine's Day

Paul to the boys on there 1st Father & Son camp out. They got to play capture the flag, eat tons of smores and stay up until Midnight what kid wouldn't enjoy that. Here are a couple pictures.



Then when they got home we had a family Valentine's day dinner heart shaped pizza's, cherry 7up floats with a licorice straw and chips.




Student of the Month and an ear piercing

Joel got Student of the Month at school in November what a stud! WE of course had to have a celebration dinner that night.





 And little miss Whitney got her ears pierced at a year in a half. She was so awesome about it, she didn't cry or anything all she did is give a pouty face and then she was good.

New Year TIme to get back to Blogging

I know it has been forever but it is about time that I get back to writing on my blog.
Alright where to start well the family is doing great we have been back and Oregon for about 4 1/2 years, holy crap is right! The kids are doing amazing lets start with Joel. Joel is now in 1st grade and is excelling in school in every subject, the kid is reading at a 3rd grade reading level and he is only 7 years old! (Who's kid is he? I hate reading which I am trying to get better at because of him.) I am so proud of this little boy of mine he is so smart. He is now officially a 2 sport kid Soccer and basketball. HE went undefeated in Soccer Fall 2014 and Basketball 2015. He is one of the smaller kids on the team but is a stud out there.
Lets move onto Drew. Drew is now 4 1/2 and he has so much character. I mean I love this kid so much he says the greatest things. He has been doing a Joy preschool that I have been apart of and is doing amazing, he will be ready for Kindergarten in September. He does a great job bugging the heck out of his siblings but is still a wonderful big brother to his little sister. He is probably my most affectionate, I hear I love you from him 10 to 20 times a day and it just melts my heart. As for sports Drew will be starting Soccer this spring which will be his 1st sport so this should be fun having to kids in soccer. Let's see how this Mom handles this task.
And finally lets talk about Whitney aka Whit! This little girl lights up any room. She will be turning 2 in march. She wants to kick it with the boys like all the time, if they are doing something she wants to make sure she is included in it. Now don't get me wrong this little girl is girly in all ways. She loves princesses, books and shoes (my dear sister I am sure you love that last one). She adores her Daddy more than anything when he is gone at work she asking me "where's Daddy" cute and annoying all at the same time. All the kids really like to sing and dance but this girl is like me and will listen to a song over and over again and not get tired of it.
Well  and then there is Paul and I and well we are not that exciting. Paul is working for the city right now and well I am playing basketball with a group of girls once a week and taking care of the kiddos.









This life is just amazing I have to say we have 3 amazing and healthy kids and Paul has a job that takes care of our needs what more could you ask for!
