Happy Mother's Day

I hope every Mom had a great day. We did! I had a BBQ on Saturday. We had tons of food, the kids swam in the pool and EVERYONE sang karaoke. Happy Mother's Day to all!

Happy Birthday to MOM

Happy Birthday to you - I hope your day is great!
(I need a more recent photo!)

Cameron

Since I didn't have a picture of Cameron on his birthday here is one I took last Sunday. This is Cameron's FAVORITE past time.

Track Stars

Sadie and Allyson both won medals at their schools track meets. Sadie won the GOLD in the 50 & 100 meters. She also won a BRONZE in the standing jump. Allyson won the BRONZE in the 800 meter. Good Job Girls!

Double Delight

My first rose bloom burst open on Monday. I can't wait to see the rest!

Family Resemblance

I guess I will have to take this picture again in about 5 years or so to see if Charlie looks like Grandpa or not.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD! We love you!

Happy 13th Birthday

Cameron and Allyson turn 13 today, YEAH. I think they are pretty happy with finally being able to consider themselves teenagers. Terry says that he's not scared yet but check back with him when we have two 19 year olds, a 16 year old, a 13 year old and 7 year old. YIKES! We celebrated by meeting up with Michelle's crew at Disney's California Adventure. Allyson is very busy running track for her school and she is involved in a singing/dancing theatre group. Cameron is all about his dirt bike. I broke down and reluctantly consented to the purchase of the bike at Christmas time. Cameron has proven responsible and he and his Dad take off for rides on the weekends.

Spring Break

Sarah, Sadie and I spent 3 days at the beach over their Easter Break. It was a big deal b/c it was the first time I had ever driven our R.V., and without Terry no less. I was very nervous but Terry kept reassuring me that I could do it and all ended well. The first night was tough for me because it was the first time I had ever spent the night away from Charlie, but I was happy to have some time with the girls too. We rode our bikes, layed out on the beach, flew our kite and painted our toes - you know all of the important camping stuff.

Charlie is 9 months

How beautiful is this boy? I can't believe he is almost one. The past 9 months have gone by too fast. Charlie is getting around now, everywhere. His likes: climbing the stairs, pulling the plastic cap off of the door stoppers, ripping Daddy's Sport's Illustrated magazines, and bathtime. His dislikes: lying still to get his diaper changed, the merry-go-round at Disneyland, Mommy wiping his nose and vegetables.

Getting Started

My first Post.
......where do I start? So far this isn't going well. My life is so full, trying to write about it is overwhelming. Maybe I need to break it down into sections.
