I just wanted to post a little update on the old blog. So glad that summer is finally here! It's wonderful to get to sleep late everyday (the kids sleep until about 9:00 unless I need them up earlier). We are still busy doing camps and the like but it still a slower pace.<br /><br />So here are some pictures from the end of the school year: Mother's Day, Field Day and Recital Days!<br /><br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wiE_5aSKTpc/T9Z4oB75LOI/AAAAAAAAH7g/TM5rFL3j4Gw/s1600/DSC_0977.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 275px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5752918203122134242" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wiE_5aSKTpc/T9Z4oB75LOI/AAAAAAAAH7g/TM5rFL3j4Gw/s320/DSC_0977.JPG" /></a>Me and My girl on Mother's Day<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xNn1AEA37bI/T9Z4nmd1qHI/AAAAAAAAH7Q/zo67ze-FROk/s1600/DSC_0982.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 267px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5752918195748317298" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xNn1AEA37bI/T9Z4nmd1qHI/AAAAAAAAH7Q/zo67ze-FROk/s320/DSC_0982.JPG" /></a> Lala and Pax<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-tPWxl6QXcBc/T9Z4nKfKppI/AAAAAAAAH7E/FS9nKF7m4O0/s1600/DSC_0984.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 234px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5752918188237694610" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-tPWxl6QXcBc/T9Z4nKfKppI/AAAAAAAAH7E/FS9nKF7m4O0/s320/DSC_0984.JPG" /></a>Me and the folks!<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Z4g0sQhI5_c/T9Z4m5LwDpI/AAAAAAAAH68/xUTV4Vf-niU/s1600/DSC_0989.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 278px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5752918183592857234" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Z4g0sQhI5_c/T9Z4m5LwDpI/AAAAAAAAH68/xUTV4Vf-niU/s320/DSC_0989.JPG" /></a> My sweet hubby<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-9NvtFv4QyvI/T9YjtpS5P4I/AAAAAAAAH5o/89UCiDfyJNs/s1600/DSC_0950.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 198px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5752824841098575746" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-9NvtFv4QyvI/T9YjtpS5P4I/AAAAAAAAH5o/89UCiDfyJNs/s320/DSC_0950.JPG" /></a>Paxton at his piano recital.

Another year older for sweet Lorelei! We had a wonderful time last weekend celebrating Lorelei's birthday with friends and family. The weekend started off with an American Girl doll party with all of Lorelei's girlfriends. Each girl brought her favorite doll to the party. We did the doll's hair, played American Girl Doll Bingo and made a craft (Cootie Catchers-remember those?!!). Lorelei is not a big cake girl so we had brownie cupcakes with chocolate ice cream! The girls had a great time with each other, laughing and giggling like little 6 year old girls do!<br /><br />Lorelei has had a fabulous kindergarten year, nothing but pure fun and joy! She is doing so well reading (reading big chapter books) and still loves doing ballet each week. The older she gets the more I realize what an easy and good child she is and has been! She is just so sweet natured and wants to love everybody! Of course, she is not perfect, but I just can eat up her sweetness. She promises to always be my baby! It's still so hard to see her getting so big! Happy 6th Birthday Big Girl!!<br /><br /><br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-KTny7Kxq3ZU/T5gAxp9PD7I/AAAAAAAAH1Q/zL5Ic0RZuWQ/s1600/DSC_0842.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 199px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5735334978532609970" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-KTny7Kxq3ZU/T5gAxp9PD7I/AAAAAAAAH1Q/zL5Ic0RZuWQ/s320/DSC_0842.JPG" /></a> The Set Up- Jilly (her AG look like me doll) and Kanani (2011 Girl of the Year) were our centerpieces.

It only took me all day to load these few pictures. Now I remember why I have been away from blogging for soooo long! Anywho, life here has been crazy as always. Lots going on in our life the last few months, but God is good and faithful and is bringing us through it all!<br /><br />The kids keep growing and getting bigger and older. They amaze me everyday, they also make me tired, ha! Paxton is almost finished with first grade, he is so smart-knows his multiplication tables (self taught), square roots through 16, division, and on it goes. It's so funny how he just loves learning math. He will probably pass me up next year! Paxton is also playing soccer with his travel team, which is always keeping us busy. Of course his bout with Pneumonia kept him away from the fields for a few weeks.<br /><br />My sweet little girl is going to be 6 in a week, I just can't believe it. Neither can anyone else when they see how small she is! I was buying party supplies last week and the store clerk looked at her and asked if she was turning 4! So little but also so smart! She is a great leader in her class and reads super well! She is still loving ballet and her recital is coming up soon.<br /><br />So we stay busy with the kiddos, Josh is busy with work and I am busy usually subbing at the kid's school or running around trying to get all my errands done in one day if I have off! So here are some pictures you all probably saw on Facebook, but I will share again. A few from Easter Sunday. Hopefully I will keep up with all the craziness that April and May bring, we'll see!<br /><br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-n6giUtYFklM/T4g9QEpYThI/AAAAAAAAHw8/HHBQv-ryXow/s1600/DSC_0801.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 268px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5730897872163458578" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-n6giUtYFklM/T4g9QEpYThI/AAAAAAAAHw8/HHBQv-ryXow/s400/DSC_0801.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-v6Q4uHzAb7M/T4g9P_LOBFI/AAAAAAAAHw0/hckad2ocBFI/s1600/DSC_0802.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 296px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5730897870694777938" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-v6Q4uHzAb7M/T4g9P_LOBFI/AAAAAAAAHw0/hckad2ocBFI/s400/DSC_0802.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jGXZWv7JB6U/T4g4l-cgsVI/AAAAAAAAHwM/nkgP2E8PylE/s1600/DSC_0806.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 345px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5730892750897852754" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jGXZWv7JB6U/T4g4l-cgsVI/AAAAAAAAHwM/nkgP2E8PylE/s400/DSC_0806.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-X5Ce6Ntrxqs/T4g4ljDyg1I/AAAAAAAAHwA/QxE-fLXyE0M/s1600/DSC_0810.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5730892743546405714" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-X5Ce6Ntrxqs/T4g4ljDyg1I/AAAAAAAAHwA/QxE-fLXyE0M/s400/DSC_0810.JPG" /></a> The Cousins, Paxton (7), Micah(3), Luke (8), Nathan (6), Jude (22 mon), Lorelei (5)<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-sAz9eom7YwA/T4g4lLOAQcI/AAAAAAAAHv4/qW2AgtUZGk0/s1600/DSC_0811.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5730892737146798530" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-sAz9eom7YwA/T4g4lLOAQcI/AAAAAAAAHv4/qW2AgtUZGk0/s400/DSC_0811.JPG" /></a><br /></div></div></div></div>kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04380478406788967839noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-435173018694942895.post-61699260144565579882011-12-19T10:09:00.000-08:002011-12-20T12:25:41.292-08:00December Fun 2011<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3ICXWJ2PuZM/TvDq0VZciRI/AAAAAAAAHp4/s-8ipRZY8h4/s1600/DSC_0884.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 282px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5688304514186905874" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3ICXWJ2PuZM/TvDq0VZciRI/AAAAAAAAHp4/s-8ipRZY8h4/s400/DSC_0884.JPG" /></a> Another month has come and gone and of course December brings lots of activities for us! We have been busy with ballet, piano, Christmas crafts and goodies and of course our Elfie has been very busy this month as well!<br />We have finally slowed down since school got out last week and are enjoying more down time. I have tried to plan something fun for the kids to do each day to keep them from being "bored", a favorite word here.<br /><br /><br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-d0mnWF-0QC4/TvDohFPp1pI/AAAAAAAAHps/KYTsREA2pBo/s1600/DSC_0820.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5688301984410097298" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-d0mnWF-0QC4/TvDohFPp1pI/AAAAAAAAHps/KYTsREA2pBo/s400/DSC_0820.JPG" /></a> To start off, Paxton received the Presidential Fitness Award this month.

He is currently almost finished with book 2, he gets to watch the movies after he reads the books! A funny on him from this morning: People were getting up in service and testifying about how God's grace had saved them and how we are all apart of God's family. Well one man got up and started by saying "By God's grace I haven't had a drink in 35 years." Paxton leaned over to me with big eyes and said "Really? He hasn't had anything to drink in 35 years?!!" <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">Hahaha</span>, too cute! Josh and I were cracking up!

He spends 4 days a week doing soccer. He is the youngest on the team and doing really well. It has definetly improved his game by playing up and so much, still more to learn but we are super proud of him. Anyway, this is how we spend most of our Saturdays and Sundays now.<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Ve_CwAesigk/Tq3yMMHXIiI/AAAAAAAAHiM/u7dhxQnJwU8/s1600/DSC_0675.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5669453797153776162" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Ve_CwAesigk/Tq3yMMHXIiI/AAAAAAAAHiM/u7dhxQnJwU8/s400/DSC_0675.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QeOxkY8x5DU/Tq3xtq1OpKI/AAAAAAAAHiA/evJwCM7CTdc/s1600/DSC_0648.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 268px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5669453272823276706" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QeOxkY8x5DU/Tq3xtq1OpKI/AAAAAAAAHiA/evJwCM7CTdc/s400/DSC_0648.JPG" /></a> Just a picture of my cutie!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-s2HSJhGfI8M/Tq3weXga35I/AAAAAAAAHh0/mhpHZyWkub8/s1600/DSC_0570.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5669451910426058642" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-s2HSJhGfI8M/Tq3weXga35I/AAAAAAAAHh0/mhpHZyWkub8/s400/DSC_0570.JPG" /></a><br />Pumpkin Patch Time!<br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-4Inh3OxpqR8/Tq3vonoMygI/AAAAAAAAHho/7AcgDITwDO4/s1600/DSC_0581.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 268px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5669450987040721410" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-4Inh3OxpqR8/Tq3vonoMygI/AAAAAAAAHho/7AcgDITwDO4/s400/DSC_0581.JPG" /></a> Corn Maze Fun!<br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-zngpuGcVeOw/Tq3u7GZCx6I/AAAAAAAAHhc/RBrdxtgBQFc/s1600/DSC_0586.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 268px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5669450205024667554" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-zngpuGcVeOw/Tq3u7GZCx6I/AAAAAAAAHhc/RBrdxtgBQFc/s400/DSC_0586.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--xgXzit4s9k/Tq3uXdPwsHI/AAAAAAAAHhQ/Ux-0ZR41v1A/s1600/DSC_0604.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 334px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5669449592684458098" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--xgXzit4s9k/Tq3uXdPwsHI/AAAAAAAAHhQ/Ux-0ZR41v1A/s400/DSC_0604.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KK4pUaRztP4/Tq3t1jfDdNI/AAAAAAAAHhE/KJgy3pZPdcA/s1600/DSC_0615.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 256px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5669449010243663058" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KK4pUaRztP4/Tq3t1jfDdNI/AAAAAAAAHhE/KJgy3pZPdcA/s400/DSC_0615.JPG" /></a>Handsome Pumpkin<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vBKrclby0Vk/Tq3tJRLnVpI/AAAAAAAAHg4/vvNcD571ErM/s1600/DSC_0617.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 230px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5669448249416046226" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vBKrclby0Vk/Tq3tJRLnVpI/AAAAAAAAHg4/vvNcD571ErM/s400/DSC_0617.JPG" /></a> Cutest Pumpkin in the Patch!<br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--0ujuaGUkEY/Tq3saBI5qrI/AAAAAAAAHgs/54AXIGOFyRI/s1600/DSC_0151.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 282px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5669447437655845554" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--0ujuaGUkEY/Tq3saBI5qrI/AAAAAAAAHgs/54AXIGOFyRI/s400/DSC_0151.JPG" /></a> First Day of School Pictures- yes that is how far behind I am!<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-wRxoGy3CfYg/Tq3r5eVmWuI/AAAAAAAAHgg/R1QIBl3E7Rs/s1600/DSC_0156.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 293px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5669446878558051042" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-wRxoGy3CfYg/Tq3r5eVmWuI/AAAAAAAAHgg/R1QIBl3E7Rs/s400/DSC_0156.JPG" /></a> Love this one!

We had 10 energetic boys come over after school for some pool fun. They spend most of the time beating each other with swim noodles!<br /><br />Paxton is loving first grade this year, he has an awesome teacher! He is also playing travel Academy Soccer this year with the U-9 team.

We lost our water, garage door opener, security system, TVs, phones, computers, WIFI, etc. So here I am typing on my husband's laptop, trying to update this blog. Oh and did I mention that last week our air conditioner leaked and sent water pouring into our family room. Yes, the handy man is here now redoing our busted and stained ceiling. Good times, you know.<br />I will try to update the blog with more pictures later but for now here are some quick highlights from our trip this summer to the Northeast.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Wr8SBJte-34/Tjmj2nYdJoI/AAAAAAAAHb0/R8TMVfatl2s/s1600/DSC_0612.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 268px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5636716567310706306" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Wr8SBJte-34/Tjmj2nYdJoI/AAAAAAAAHb0/R8TMVfatl2s/s400/DSC_0612.JPG" /></a> The White House<br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/--U069ML8T_M/Tjmj2ZrFLmI/AAAAAAAAHbs/pRKKFxBZ4yE/s1600/DSC_0505.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 268px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5636716563630730850" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/--U069ML8T_M/Tjmj2ZrFLmI/AAAAAAAAHbs/pRKKFxBZ4yE/s400/DSC_0505.JPG" /></a> Washington Monument<br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lUIpPFoObsQ/Tjmj2M0d2wI/AAAAAAAAHbk/1LDFj4nfmKg/s1600/DSC_0502.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 268px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5636716560180435714" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lUIpPFoObsQ/Tjmj2M0d2wI/AAAAAAAAHbk/1LDFj4nfmKg/s400/DSC_0502.JPG" /></a> The Vietnam Memorial<br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-D5BvXGmEjuQ/Tjmj2GoCCEI/AAAAAAAAHbc/Sala80TivqE/s1600/DSC_0494.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5636716558517667906" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-D5BvXGmEjuQ/Tjmj2GoCCEI/AAAAAAAAHbc/Sala80TivqE/s400/DSC_0494.JPG" /></a> Washington Monument<br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-veN91EptFFA/Tjmj1_1gXsI/AAAAAAAAHbU/hgFMTnSwk2Q/s1600/DSC_0685.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 268px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5636716556695133890" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-veN91EptFFA/Tjmj1_1gXsI/AAAAAAAAHbU/hgFMTnSwk2Q/s400/DSC_0685.JPG" /></a></div></div></div></div></div><br /><p align="center">NYC, on top of the Empire State Building</p>kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04380478406788967839noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-435173018694942895.post-65980479262096191122011-06-26T12:51:00.000-07:002011-06-27T12:49:25.993-07:00Ahhhh, beach time!<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KLshQwxid2M/TgjXP8d8RtI/AAAAAAAAHbM/SYp-fm8rJW4/s1600/DSC_0384.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 317px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5622980803701786322" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KLshQwxid2M/TgjXP8d8RtI/AAAAAAAAHbM/SYp-fm8rJW4/s400/DSC_0384.JPG" /></a> We just returned from a fabulous beach vacation with my parents in Gulf Shores. It was so relaxing and we had a blast doing the beach thing! My parents treated us to a wonderful week in the penthouse at the Beach Club and the view was worth it alone! We tasted some yummy seafood, played some mini golf, raced cars, did some shopping, hung out at the pool and more!<br /><br />Of course we had our not so memorable occasions too! Paxton and Josh both got stung by jelly fish one day, ouch! Josh says it feels much worse than a bee sting, I am glad for him to know that and not me! My poor little Pax sure didn't care for it either. Not to be left out of the pain factor, Lorelei, who has just learned to swim (yeah and finally), decided to jump in the pool and then turn around at the same time. Thus smashing her chin onto the side of the pool and busting it open. No stitches since we were not really near a hospital but she could have probably used a couple. Ah, that is life with two active kiddos. Happy to say though, that both got back in the pool and or ocean after the incidents.<br /><br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-w8WWzXUNDfU/TgjVkryhVYI/AAAAAAAAHbE/jLouvDRhXeA/s1600/DSC_0347.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 342px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5622978960978695554" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-w8WWzXUNDfU/TgjVkryhVYI/AAAAAAAAHbE/jLouvDRhXeA/s400/DSC_0347.JPG" /></a><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-lwRYoELzcWM/TgjVGvgpadI/AAAAAAAAHa8/oiXIjujImRo/s1600/DSC_0349.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 221px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5622978446581393874" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-lwRYoELzcWM/TgjVGvgpadI/AAAAAAAAHa8/oiXIjujImRo/s400/DSC_0349.JPG" /></a> Eating at Guy Harveys at the Warf<br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bSKm4fLExmc/TgjVGXWQ_YI/AAAAAAAAHa0/VqdS72zVtPs/s1600/DSC_0354.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 307px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5622978440095399298" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bSKm4fLExmc/TgjVGXWQ_YI/AAAAAAAAHa0/VqdS72zVtPs/s400/DSC_0354.JPG" /></a> You can probably guess who ALWAYS wins when we play this game.

When Josh told me they were going to do it while we were waiting to eat, I didn't really notice exactly how scary it would be. This ropes course gave me a small heart attack, especially when my 6 year old was 3 stories high on a tight rope only being held up by a harness around him. I was begging Josh to bring him down but Josh thought it was grand fun and so did Paxton. He actually did awesome up there but I was not really happy about it!<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ynPqXexowu0/TgefLmtsoQI/AAAAAAAAHXs/7OdEIUc7DXI/s1600/DSC_0422.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5622637681514946818" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ynPqXexowu0/TgefLmtsoQI/AAAAAAAAHXs/7OdEIUc7DXI/s400/DSC_0422.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-mBKrx0Q_2dg/TgefLQCk4GI/AAAAAAAAHXk/hQ6GMBHowKg/s1600/DSC_0424.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5622637675428503650" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-mBKrx0Q_2dg/TgefLQCk4GI/AAAAAAAAHXk/hQ6GMBHowKg/s400/DSC_0424.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1ODzIggtBOw/TgefLFc2Y_I/AAAAAAAAHXc/lpjQDp6wx7o/s1600/DSC_0426.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 268px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5622637672585913330" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1ODzIggtBOw/TgefLFc2Y_I/AAAAAAAAHXc/lpjQDp6wx7o/s400/DSC_0426.JPG" /></a> Grandmama and Lorelei hanging out at Lulu's, waiting to eat.<br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7bStXfHPErU/TgefK00VHUI/AAAAAAAAHXU/tpI7_yhpoC8/s1600/DSC_0430.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 285px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5622637668120993090" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7bStXfHPErU/TgefK00VHUI/AAAAAAAAHXU/tpI7_yhpoC8/s400/DSC_0430.JPG" /></a> Grandaddy and Paxton at Lulu's<br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4BlbEU7ZyoQ/TgedNsLZZGI/AAAAAAAAHXM/_mfEdu7F-5k/s1600/DSC_0432.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5622635518318175330" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4BlbEU7ZyoQ/TgedNsLZZGI/AAAAAAAAHXM/_mfEdu7F-5k/s400/DSC_0432.JPG" /></a> The girls.<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-c5MVvG1GHbw/TgedM9h4u4I/AAAAAAAAHXE/Ak7GJBsxpLY/s1600/DSC_0433.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5622635505796037506" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-c5MVvG1GHbw/TgedM9h4u4I/AAAAAAAAHXE/Ak7GJBsxpLY/s400/DSC_0433.JPG" /></a> There was this guy that kept rowing by on his surfboard while we ate and Lulu's, Hang Ten!<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ZwSTdxfwH2A/TgedMqoslNI/AAAAAAAAHW8/nqrQS13t9JQ/s1600/DSC_0435.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 344px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5622635500724327634" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ZwSTdxfwH2A/TgedMqoslNI/AAAAAAAAHW8/nqrQS13t9JQ/s400/DSC_0435.JPG" /></a> A little race car action.

Paxton loves playing and has a great understanding of music. His teacher said he has never seen a child understand it and love it this much. Mr. Owens, his teacher, said he could easily go professional when he is a bit older too! Paxton is about to start his 4th set of books for the year, most make it through one and maybe part of another. If Paxton is inside the house, not playing a gadget, he is at the piano. We are so proud of his dedication and great talent! I must say he did not get it from me! I took 6 years of piano and he is already better than me!<br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1m67z9x-Qic/Tdv4etpTkjI/AAAAAAAAHTQ/XtFh144PMSM/s1600/DSC_0122.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 388px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610350967352693298" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1m67z9x-Qic/Tdv4etpTkjI/AAAAAAAAHTQ/XtFh144PMSM/s400/DSC_0122.JPG" /></a>Paxton at his piano recital this May.<br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-M5WywbEC7jo/Tdv4eWbEXxI/AAAAAAAAHTI/ikJCwTJ6hr8/s1600/DSC_0124.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610350961118961426" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-M5WywbEC7jo/Tdv4eWbEXxI/AAAAAAAAHTI/ikJCwTJ6hr8/s400/DSC_0124.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ibyVQSyHXrU/Tdv4dwUqpmI/AAAAAAAAHTA/M0a-uR6kfUw/s1600/DSC_0127.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 312px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610350950891562594" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ibyVQSyHXrU/Tdv4dwUqpmI/AAAAAAAAHTA/M0a-uR6kfUw/s400/DSC_0127.JPG" /></a>He played two songs for this recital.<br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Pe0e1rADxrg/Tdv4dbb0eaI/AAAAAAAAHS4/gYqctHrFqDA/s1600/DSC_0128.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 323px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610350945284422050" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Pe0e1rADxrg/Tdv4dbb0eaI/AAAAAAAAHS4/gYqctHrFqDA/s400/DSC_0128.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-W5lYkBPjE2M/Tdv1EXcXcEI/AAAAAAAAHSg/aqrvlNspflY/s1600/DSC_0131.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610347216181358658" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-W5lYkBPjE2M/Tdv1EXcXcEI/AAAAAAAAHSg/aqrvlNspflY/s400/DSC_0131.JPG" /></a>Some of the kids from the performances.

We told Paxton he could either sit every week and watch Lorelei for an hour or he could participate. He choose to participate and he has actually really enjoyed it and excelled at it. Of course Lorelei loves it and is also doing really well. She loves her teachers and takes class with her friend Aidyn. </div><br /><div align="center">This weekend they had a Gymnastics meet, not really a competition, but a time for them to show off their skills and get a trophy. Lorelei will be moving up to the kindergarten class this summer and Paxton will be moving up to the Novice 1 class.<br /></div><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SjowKUCklyE/TdvxKeBC66I/AAAAAAAAHRQ/k_WJMq-Mdpc/s1600/DSC_0245.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 260px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610342922978519970" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SjowKUCklyE/TdvxKeBC66I/AAAAAAAAHRQ/k_WJMq-Mdpc/s400/DSC_0245.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-tDklQF7zSmA/TdvxJz7lhYI/AAAAAAAAHRI/pwX2nhiR-5M/s1600/DSC_0255.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610342911681332610" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-tDklQF7zSmA/TdvxJz7lhYI/AAAAAAAAHRI/pwX2nhiR-5M/s400/DSC_0255.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9nyNo7u4wTA/TdvxJg-Z6nI/AAAAAAAAHRA/5o8Fl-kbUbU/s1600/DSC_0256.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610342906592881266" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9nyNo7u4wTA/TdvxJg-Z6nI/AAAAAAAAHRA/5o8Fl-kbUbU/s400/DSC_0256.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-iEWBAXSatEc/TdvxJOYMPRI/AAAAAAAAHQ4/LaMCBtaIvJM/s1600/DSC_0259.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 157px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610342901600763154" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-iEWBAXSatEc/TdvxJOYMPRI/AAAAAAAAHQ4/LaMCBtaIvJM/s400/DSC_0259.JPG" /></a> Love this pose!

I have to lump all the Easter together so I can get ready for some more blog posts soon! Both Paxton and Lorelei had several Easter Egg hunt parties to attend. Each had a school hunt, then the church hunt, Lorelei's friends' house hunt, and then our family Egg hunt! Whew, that's a lot of plastic Easter eggs! <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">Fortunately</span> for you, I didn't have my camera at every event!<br /><br />The first hunt we attended was at Belle's house. Belle is a sweet friend from church, and soon to be school too next year, who throws some wonderful parties every year! Her mom is <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">sooo</span> talented in <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">decorating</span> and setting up the cutest parties for Belle and her friends. Lorelei had a great time and was super excited to find "THE" Golden egg! She got a big chocolate bunny and <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">Easter</span> bag as her prize and she almost every bite of that bunny!<br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-09ra7seEAvU/TcXj-__itLI/AAAAAAAAHNY/d78yDraKOZg/s1600/DSC_1329.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

And boy are we tired today! Lorelei's birthday was on Good Friday, so there was no school and no ballet. A whole day to celebrate Lorelei turning 5!! We have been telling her for a while now that when she turned 5 she could pick out an American Girl Doll. She has been waiting a long time, studying the catalogs, visiting the store and Friday, her day finally came!!<br />Meet Jilly, that is Jill with a "y" as Lorelei declared earlier that morning that was what she would name her new American Girl doll. Jilly is a "look like me" doll, with blond hair, blue eyes, and pierced ears! Yes, we got the dolls ears pierced there too! Lorelei had a ball picking out Jilly and some clothes for her. Of course Jilly needed her own pet too, Praline the cat. I must document at this point that while Mommy was having a ball with this, the two boys of the family were not really enjoying themselves. One was grumbling and mumbling about how much this was going to cost him and the other one, was bored out of his mind in the AG store! Ha!<br />After we got Jilly all done up we headed over the American Girl Bistro for some dinner. I thought it was actually pretty good and Jilly even had her own "seat" that attached to the table. Lorelei got brownie lollipops for dessert along with a candle and a birthday song from the staff there. So much fun! Jilly has accompanied us just about everywhere since we got her.

We hosted 16 girls at the Gymnastics place Lorelei goes to each week. I must say they did a wonderful job, I was uber impressed with the organization and fun they had planned! It was a lot of girls, all from either school, church or ballet, but we had a blast. I think the Gymnastics instructors wore the girls out pretty well too! </div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>Lorelei wanted a Tangled cake, of course you know she doesn't eat cake, but nevertheless, her friends enjoyed it while she chowed down on some chocolate ice cream! Opening presents was fun, a bit overwhelming, and birthday girl had just about had it by the end!<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-AlEmkV5JQsw/TbXmRqhYU7I/AAAAAAAAHG4/aJABGct3TRs/s1600/DSC_0016.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5599634902851539890" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-AlEmkV5JQsw/TbXmRqhYU7I/AAAAAAAAHG4/aJABGct3TRs/s400/DSC_0016.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-JkU0CzQetGc/TbXmRUutkuI/AAAAAAAAHGw/OsVzVF359qo/s1600/DSC_0019.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5599634897001878242" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-JkU0CzQetGc/TbXmRUutkuI/AAAAAAAAHGw/OsVzVF359qo/s400/DSC_0019.JPG" /></a>Lexi, Lorelei and Bianca stretching out!

We got to go to Orlando for Spring Break and we had a blast as always! We just love that city, there is so much to do and such a great atmosphere there! This time we did a bit of everything, Sea World, Downtown Disney, Fantasia Put Put, Magic Kingdom and more! We aren't used to going with such major crowds and traffic was not pretty on the way down. On day 1 we got to swim at a very cool pool with a viper water slide and then we headed to Downtown Disney. We usually feel so rushed when we go there so we dedicated the whole afternoon and evening to really explore. My new favorite shop, besides the Goofy candy store is the Mickey Christmas Shop! So many wonderful goodies for Christmas in there, I will definetly be going back in September to buy some stuff for Christmas. Of course Paxton loves the Lego store and Lorelei loves the "Princess" store. We ate at the T Rex Cafe which was yummy! Pax was disappointed because they sat us in the "Water/aquarium" part and not near the mean dinosaurs.

The kids got to color and dance with Rapunzel and Flynn.

I love this picture of the "pout"! We were trying some clothes on for the spring and this is the look she gave me. Maybe she has been watching too much of "America's Next Top Model." Just kidding!<br /><br />Anyway, both kiddos have enjoyed being in gymnastics this spring. It is has been great for both of them and they are getting very strong from being there. They had awards day last week and so here are some pics along with our sweet friend Aidyn, who just moved here from Nashville. Sorry for the funky format, I messed up but am too lazy to fix it tonight!<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-dAzfiq1-dFw/TY6AqWPEhCI/AAAAAAAAG8Q/hVCk78_fpgY/s1600/DSC_1078.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 285px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588545652625015842" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-dAzfiq1-dFw/TY6AqWPEhCI/AAAAAAAAG8Q/hVCk78_fpgY/s400/DSC_1078.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6chaPOMV4V8/TY6AqLBACqI/AAAAAAAAG8I/YaCelT3rN74/s1600/DSC_1079.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 280px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588545649613212322" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6chaPOMV4V8/TY6AqLBACqI/AAAAAAAAG8I/YaCelT3rN74/s400/DSC_1079.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-whghXTlYK-w/TY6Ap45PjjI/AAAAAAAAG8A/YtPO2Jf-tT4/s1600/DSC_1081.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 395px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588545644748836402" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-whghXTlYK-w/TY6Ap45PjjI/AAAAAAAAG8A/YtPO2Jf-tT4/s400/DSC_1081.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vnTetFdtHAA/TY5_3rGHfzI/AAAAAAAAG74/C97F_1E3iLw/s1600/DSC_1086.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 400px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588544782051278642" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vnTetFdtHAA/TY5_3rGHfzI/AAAAAAAAG74/C97F_1E3iLw/s400/DSC_1086.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RqUu2PtLws8/TY5_3VlH1AI/AAAAAAAAG7w/rRoBrRKC-ys/s1600/DSC_1088.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 268px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588544776275743746" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RqUu2PtLws8/TY5_3VlH1AI/AAAAAAAAG7w/rRoBrRKC-ys/s400/DSC_1088.JPG" /></a><br /></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 268px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588544771019892594" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-TnhZ_YvG3To/TY5_3CAB53I/AAAAAAAAG7o/hwZNPrOvMzg/s400/DSC_1089.JPG" /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-mHYO_zC1CK8/TY5_20kPgdI/AAAAAAAAG7g/jij4HFoPwrc/s1600/DSC_1091.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 268px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588544767413682642" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-mHYO_zC1CK8/TY5_20kPgdI/AAAAAAAAG7g/jij4HFoPwrc/s400/DSC_1091.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-M-8qMVEsJsI/TY5_2n835BI/AAAAAAAAG7Y/lTwGf--M3HA/s1600/DSC_1092.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 268px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588544764027331602" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-M-8qMVEsJsI/TY5_2n835BI/AAAAAAAAG7Y/lTwGf--M3HA/s400/DSC_1092.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04380478406788967839noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-435173018694942895.post-47301706601134324802011-03-15T08:07:00.000-07:002011-03-15T08:34:08.804-07:00Undefeated!!<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-oCHTqeDVhIU/TX-D51oJQaI/AAAAAAAAG7Q/H0ci6ENSZkU/s1600/DSC_1057.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 316px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584327092633944482" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-oCHTqeDVhIU/TX-D51oJQaI/AAAAAAAAG7Q/H0ci6ENSZkU/s400/DSC_1057.JPG" /></a> Paxton just finished up his basketball season on the Buccaneers at the end of February. His team was undefeated, more than that they were awesome! Most games were 50+ points to about 4 for the other team. We just got lucky with great kids or maybe it was their awesome coach, right Josh? Anyway, we had a great time watching Paxton play! He scored about 6-10 points per game on average and was a great defensive player. Paxton enjoyed playing with one of his best friends from school, Colton. Of course having Josh as the coach made the experience fun as well. Paxton loved his trophy that he got at the end of the season party, adding to his collection of trophies! Love it!<br /><br />Now it's on to soccer season, where our athlete scored 3 goals on Saturday and 7 goals on Sunday, nice! We are so proud of you buddy!<br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vaST55BG4Ak/TX-DnVBFW6I/AAAAAAAAG7I/SxNimRxpcwI/s1600/DSC_1058.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 354px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584326774642531234" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vaST55BG4Ak/TX-DnVBFW6I/AAAAAAAAG7I/SxNimRxpcwI/s400/DSC_1058.JPG" /></a> Love this shot!<br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-imsYujhYNNk/TX-DnM0NcBI/AAAAAAAAG7A/fcyHRxobhJ0/s1600/DSC_1059.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 367px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584326772441051154" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-imsYujhYNNk/TX-DnM0NcBI/AAAAAAAAG7A/fcyHRxobhJ0/s400/DSC_1059.JPG" /></a> The kids loved running through the sign each week as they announced their team.

They play at churches and always start and end with a prayer and devotional at half time. We were very impressed with their spiritual emphasis and organization.<br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ysmAIw525cY/TX-C8llzJvI/AAAAAAAAG6w/chQiO8jtzmI/s1600/DSC_1061.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 302px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584326040357119730" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ysmAIw525cY/TX-C8llzJvI/AAAAAAAAG6w/chQiO8jtzmI/s400/DSC_1061.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dNC5UZU9PSo/TX-C8Tc4IjI/AAAAAAAAG6o/lJw9iXuKgFE/s1600/DSC_1062.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 194px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584326035487859250" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dNC5UZU9PSo/TX-C8Tc4IjI/AAAAAAAAG6o/lJw9iXuKgFE/s400/DSC_1062.JPG" /></a> Check out my b-ball skills and moves!<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-cL10EVlKMM8/TX-C8K8i2EI/AAAAAAAAG6g/xplD8x-kn5s/s1600/DSC_1065.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 373px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584326033204762690" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-cL10EVlKMM8/TX-C8K8i2EI/AAAAAAAAG6g/xplD8x-kn5s/s400/DSC_1065.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gVNnYG2mZtQ/TX-C79KjUoI/AAAAAAAAG6Y/-4O8m29rqmA/s1600/DSC_1066.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584326029505417858" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gVNnYG2mZtQ/TX-C79KjUoI/AAAAAAAAG6Y/-4O8m29rqmA/s400/DSC_1066.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-WTdwF3nJT38/TX-BmpHaqjI/AAAAAAAAG6Q/8DRyrlVmqlI/s1600/DSC_1068.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 225px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584324563834677810" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-WTdwF3nJT38/TX-BmpHaqjI/AAAAAAAAG6Q/8DRyrlVmqlI/s400/DSC_1068.JPG" /></a>Half time devotional<br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-MZ2Vxk0hJtY/TX-BmGtxqtI/AAAAAAAAG6I/yVqAAL-TzKQ/s1600/DSC_1072.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 309px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584324554600327890" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-MZ2Vxk0hJtY/TX-BmGtxqtI/AAAAAAAAG6I/yVqAAL-TzKQ/s400/DSC_1072.JPG" /></a> The kids LOVED Coach Josh.

She loves ballet and Loves her teacher Ms. Bernie! I am so proud of how far she has advanced over the past two years in ballet, she really does a nice job! <br /><br />Ballet has been so fun for both of us. We have been with the same group of girls for the past two years and every Friday after ballet we have play group with these girls. And there have been lots of birthday parties as well! It has been a special treat to have Lorelei home on Fridays from school so we can share this special day together every week!<br /><br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-U_CtFwqssTs/TVg7CpB2GrI/AAAAAAAAG5Y/MCoVBnrFvb4/s1600/ballet3.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5573269455430359730" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-U_CtFwqssTs/TVg7CpB2GrI/AAAAAAAAG5Y/MCoVBnrFvb4/s400/ballet3.jpg" /></a> Lorelei telling her friend Scarlett about her earrings!<br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-bKsz3OWUYmo/TVg7Cm-5LGI/AAAAAAAAG5Q/YByMa5M9UoY/s1600/ballet1.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 398px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5573269454881107042" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-bKsz3OWUYmo/TVg7Cm-5LGI/AAAAAAAAG5Q/YByMa5M9UoY/s400/ballet1.jpg" /></a>Sorry for the bad pictures here, my camera battery died and I had to use my cell phone for those two pictures!

Daddy was a little bit excited too, I love how happy they both look in these pics!<br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7zZ7FqDzTgI/TVg56IwypRI/AAAAAAAAG4Q/TLIaFYrrz5U/s1600/DSC_0867.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 256px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5573268209818314002" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7zZ7FqDzTgI/TVg56IwypRI/AAAAAAAAG4Q/TLIaFYrrz5U/s400/DSC_0867.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-9wfjdISvcsA/TVg56KaVPsI/AAAAAAAAG4I/u7hT9H2Lnu8/s1600/DSC_0868.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 304px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5573268210260983490" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-9wfjdISvcsA/TVg56KaVPsI/AAAAAAAAG4I/u7hT9H2Lnu8/s400/DSC_0868.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Lmekpf6YAPM/TVg55xpxGFI/AAAAAAAAG4A/WUKmt6SIB0E/s1600/DSC_0869.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 308px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5573268203614836818" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Lmekpf6YAPM/TVg55xpxGFI/AAAAAAAAG4A/WUKmt6SIB0E/s400/DSC_0869.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-bYU31yDYroE/TVg4ydkyudI/AAAAAAAAG34/MkJwfdo8rFg/s1600/DSC_0870.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 392px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5573266978454550994" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-bYU31yDYroE/TVg4ydkyudI/AAAAAAAAG34/MkJwfdo8rFg/s400/DSC_0870.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-LwaCFKHPvd0/TVg4yNpe0sI/AAAAAAAAG3w/jy3Bx896L-I/s1600/DSC_0872.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 296px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5573266974179250882" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-LwaCFKHPvd0/TVg4yNpe0sI/AAAAAAAAG3w/jy3Bx896L-I/s400/DSC_0872.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tLfPMSe0yOE/TVg4x53XKPI/AAAAAAAAG3o/CA58p04RiLo/s1600/DSC_0873.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 263px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5573266968868759794" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tLfPMSe0yOE/TVg4x53XKPI/AAAAAAAAG3o/CA58p04RiLo/s400/DSC_0873.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1Nr6gEfbPXs/TVg4xji3NSI/AAAAAAAAG3g/4d9JKu8av-4/s1600/DSC_0874.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 349px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5573266962877199650" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1Nr6gEfbPXs/TVg4xji3NSI/AAAAAAAAG3g/4d9JKu8av-4/s400/DSC_0874.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Ysd2hhnee34/TVg4xZVb1EI/AAAAAAAAG3Y/NufW8AWIXcw/s1600/DSC_0875.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 386px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5573266960136524866" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Ysd2hhnee34/TVg4xZVb1EI/AAAAAAAAG3Y/NufW8AWIXcw/s400/DSC_0875.JPG" /></a></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><br /></div>kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04380478406788967839noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-435173018694942895.post-33225085362215567522011-01-29T10:33:00.000-08:002011-01-29T10:40:09.227-08:00Lorelei in Wonderland<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TURetmK701I/AAAAAAAAG3M/F6R4yoVOxVE/s1600/Loreleiinwonderland.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5567679176770310994" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TURetmK701I/AAAAAAAAG3M/F6R4yoVOxVE/s400/Loreleiinwonderland.jpg" /></a><br /><div>Lorelei gets to have "fun week" on the last Friday of every month in her ballet/tap class.

I have been camera lazy lately and not very good about taking lots of pictures anyway. Here are a few from Christmas Day. It was a different day for our family for many reasons that I won't get into, but we had fun. <br />The kids were super excited on Christmas morning, as you can see on their silly little faces! I think they were pleased with what Santa left them and of course he wrote back to them on the letters they left for him as well.<br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TTJYwSjH_LI/AAAAAAAAG28/ZP0j1F4-cz8/s1600/DSC_0224.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 346px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5562606076392111282" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TTJYwSjH_LI/AAAAAAAAG28/ZP0j1F4-cz8/s400/DSC_0224.JPG" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TTJYvgZ2e8I/AAAAAAAAG20/tiffNvk2qCA/s1600/DSC_0225.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5562606062931442626" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TTJYvgZ2e8I/AAAAAAAAG20/tiffNvk2qCA/s400/DSC_0225.JPG" /></a>Lorelei's Stash<br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TTJYvcFWFqI/AAAAAAAAG2s/6pwS2IgufHU/s1600/DSC_0226.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5562606061771691682" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TTJYvcFWFqI/AAAAAAAAG2s/6pwS2IgufHU/s400/DSC_0226.JPG" /></a> Paxton's stash<br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TTJYvFlXsRI/AAAAAAAAG2k/3wR8_X67zSQ/s1600/DSC_0227.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 357px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5562606055731998994" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TTJYvFlXsRI/AAAAAAAAG2k/3wR8_X67zSQ/s400/DSC_0227.JPG" /></a> Love that face, it captures it all for the day!<br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TTJXZZv-ukI/AAAAAAAAG2c/cMIrBoEfA_s/s1600/DSC_0231.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 267px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5562604583676459586" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TTJXZZv-ukI/AAAAAAAAG2c/cMIrBoEfA_s/s400/DSC_0231.JPG" /></a> He is very excited about Donkey Kong vs Mario Bro.

That the name the kids decided to give our Elf on the Shelf. He arrived the day after Thanksgiving in Daddy's car bearing presents! The kids were so excited and thought it was hilarious. We immediately read the book about how we could never touch him or he would lose his magic. We also read about how every night he flew to the North Pole to deliver his observations of the kids to Santa. Each morning he was in a new place! <br /><br />The kids woke up every morning super excited to find him. One of the first mornings he was on sitting on the toilet in the kids bathroom, which freaked Lorelei out a little bit. She was a bit nervous to find him each morning after that but still really loved the thrill of the find. They seriously got the biggest kick out of it!!<br /><br />Some of the place Elfie was each morning: On the ceiling fan in the the two story family room, in the stocking, on the Christmas tree, in the refrigerator, relaxing in the garland, in the pantry, in Lorelei's Barbie house hanging out with Santa Barbie, in Paxton's room, in our room, so many places. Occasionally Elfie got a little wild and did some crazy things like: decorate the kids Christmas tree with underwear, eat all the Christmas cookies, dye the toilets green and blue and toilet paper the kids rooms! He also was nice bringing gifts too: Christmas hair bows for Lorelei and hot wheels for Pax, a Gingerbread house for the kids to decorate, new cookies packages for the kids after eating all of theirs (Paxton was most unhappy when Elfie finished off the Chips Ahoy Cookies).<br /><br /><div align="center">We really had a good time with Elfie and the kids were old enough to participate and understand how it all worked. So here are a few pictures that I remembered to take of our month with Elfie Giglio (yes his last name is from the pastor Louie Giglio of Passion City Church).<br /></div><div align="center"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TRuvbUET5QI/AAAAAAAAGzM/TdzefZ2ho-w/s1600/DSC_0138.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

They will be set out next to the Christmas cookies for Santa and the carrots for the reindeer. </div><br />I must say I think that for a 4 year old, this is a pretty good letter to Santa. Did I help? Only in helping her sound a few words out, not telling her the actual letters for the words. These are her thoughts and her spelling, so cute! By the way it says, "Dear Santa Give Rudolph two carrots and take care of your elf. Love Lorelei."<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TRUFKnN8xRI/AAAAAAAAGx4/VFg2-DAIurE/s1600/001.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 400px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 290px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5554351395315696914" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TRUFKnN8xRI/AAAAAAAAGx4/VFg2-DAIurE/s400/001.jpg" /></a><br /><div></div></div></div>kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04380478406788967839noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-435173018694942895.post-15649343755248096932010-12-14T12:42:00.000-08:002010-12-14T13:07:55.994-08:00Santa Knows!<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQfbEFfxq7I/AAAAAAAAGxI/tf2T8yZuC0Q/s1600/Santa%2B2010%2B001.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 262px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5550645928998841266" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQfbEFfxq7I/AAAAAAAAGxI/tf2T8yZuC0Q/s400/Santa%2B2010%2B001.jpg" /></a>We got to go see Santa last week and had a great evening of it!

We never go for "pretty" but more for the fun look. Josh always loves to make fun of my icing skills but hey, I think it turned out cute, in a fun sort of way!<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQfZ2JMR7VI/AAAAAAAAGw4/qb2Ce-VYeH8/s1600/DSC_0198.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5550644589961014610" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQfZ2JMR7VI/AAAAAAAAGw4/qb2Ce-VYeH8/s400/DSC_0198.JPG" /></a> At least I can put it together, right?<br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQfYYs023sI/AAAAAAAAGww/0d6_Hn2tkF0/s1600/DSC_0199.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5550642984618745538" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQfYYs023sI/AAAAAAAAGww/0d6_Hn2tkF0/s400/DSC_0199.JPG" /></a> So I can't ice ok?<br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQfYYdRZP4I/AAAAAAAAGwo/YaG78lwh-GY/s1600/DSC_0200.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5550642980443471746" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQfYYdRZP4I/AAAAAAAAGwo/YaG78lwh-GY/s400/DSC_0200.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQfYYIx1dCI/AAAAAAAAGwg/UOKOpSZWYUk/s1600/DSC_0202.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 268px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5550642974942393378" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQfYYIx1dCI/AAAAAAAAGwg/UOKOpSZWYUk/s400/DSC_0202.JPG" /></a> Paxton's side was very patterned and well organized.<br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQfYXF1kNlI/AAAAAAAAGwY/-K0Ak-Qoivs/s1600/DSC_0203.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 268px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5550642956972865106" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQfYXF1kNlI/AAAAAAAAGwY/-K0Ak-Qoivs/s400/DSC_0203.JPG" /></a> Lorelei's side was very decorated!<br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQfYW4m9V_I/AAAAAAAAGwQ/JhvrxEFexLs/s1600/DSC_0204.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5550642953421936626" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQfYW4m9V_I/AAAAAAAAGwQ/JhvrxEFexLs/s400/DSC_0204.JPG" /></a> Ta-dah!!</div></div></div></div></div></div>kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04380478406788967839noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-435173018694942895.post-69738753036416956482010-12-11T10:32:00.000-08:002010-12-11T11:22:56.693-08:00Christmas Performances!<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQPMg47mNoI/AAAAAAAAGwI/pLxhKiwh7Ng/s1600/DSC_0172.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 268px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5549504031260817026" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQPMg47mNoI/AAAAAAAAGwI/pLxhKiwh7Ng/s400/DSC_0172.JPG" /></a><br />In between being really sick with asthma attacks and bronchitis, Paxton has been busy doing some awesome Christmas performances at school. First up was his class play on Wednesday. This year Paxton was the dad telling the "kids" the true reason and story of Christmas. He had two lines and did awesome! Really, I could not have asked for a better performance from him and the class- well done and so cute! <br /><div align="center"> </div><div align="center"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQPLiLrP0cI/AAAAAAAAGwA/4DZDagVG5Xw/s1600/DSC_0161.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5549502953960755650" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQPLiLrP0cI/AAAAAAAAGwA/4DZDagVG5Xw/s400/DSC_0161.JPG" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQPLh0CkTpI/AAAAAAAAGv4/aWqzu6TKEVM/s1600/DSC_0159.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 268px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5549502947616116370" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQPLh0CkTpI/AAAAAAAAGv4/aWqzu6TKEVM/s400/DSC_0159.JPG" /></a> Little Miss Christmas before the show.

Paxton has been taking piano lessons this year at school and doing a fabulous job. His teacher says he has lots of talent for someone his age, he gets that from his daddy! Paxton played Away in a Manger and didn't mess up at all again, another amazing performance my man!<br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQPIypoXPbI/AAAAAAAAGuo/zngU0T7ILYo/s1600/DSC_0187.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5549499938344746418" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQPIypoXPbI/AAAAAAAAGuo/zngU0T7ILYo/s400/DSC_0187.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQPIyfzes5I/AAAAAAAAGug/erfZLClr-BM/s1600/DSC_0188.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 268px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5549499935707018130" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tE3JNVtoJhs/TQPIyfzes5I/AAAAAAAAGug/erfZLClr-BM/s400/DSC_0188.JPG" /></a>Santa was the emcee.
