Karate Chop

Sometimes I worry and say to myself "what are they thinking". No I am just kidding. These are my to boys in ninja outfits. Yep they make a ninja outfit big enough for a 6'4 ,280 lbs. guy. I am not really sure why, but Bret really wanted a ninja outfit. Therefore Corbin wanted one. They had so much fun feeling like they were true ninjas.

Brooke I hope I do this correct

What in the What- I don't believe I got tagged and I have only been doing this for 2 weeks. Well here goes nothing.

1. I LOVE Diet Pepsi. It is the thing that calms me at those crazy times in life. I especially love the "sonic" sodas because of the styrafoam cups and pepple ice. K so here is my true confession- I love it so much that I bought an industrial size "sonic ice machine" and put it in my garage. Then I took it to the next step and bought a large box of styrafoam cups , lids,and straws from Costco. I know -I have have problems, but who doesn't. And so I have a Diet at least once a day.

2. Well I don't know if any of you will believe me or not when I tell you that I have started to take up jogging. Yep I said it- Nancy is excersizing. What got me going was Bret. He bought me an ipod and those special nike shoes that you put in that special chip and that attachment to the ipod and so when you go running it will calculate your distance, pace, calorie burn, and if you are improving. All the while you are listening to you favorite music. Now another confession I downloaded songs like "shoop", and "vanilla ice". Yep I love it.

3.So I also love ot bake. Mostly because then I get to eat whatever I bake. I start out saying"I am going to bake cookies, or brownies for my visiting teachers" When deep down inside I want to bake them so I can eat them.

4. I love to shop also, but of course I love to shop for food. You know the bargains-I actually get excited for Tuesday's mail because I get the new adds for groceries. For example just last week there was a really good deal on candy bars. So being the women who wants to take advantage of a good deal- I ended up buying over 200 candy bars. Now do I need over 200 candy bars.....No, but I just couldn't pass up the deal, and I figure that I could use them for visiting teaching. wink wink.

5.One word for you BLEACH. I love to clean, and by the look of my house you wouldn't believe it but do to my crazy circumstances (having 5 kids in less then 6 years), I have other things that keep me buisy. Sometimes I wish they would make a candle that smelled like bleach, Lysol.....oh oh or make a lotion that smells like Lysol. Yep I know I have issues.

6.My way of unwinding is to veg out in front of the t.v.(usually I have some kind of food in hand). I do it every night and love any comedy, and or my latest favorite "lost".

7. I hope this doesn't come out the wrong way, but I love 8:00 p.m., because it is bedtime for the kids and I get some quiet time, time to clean, time to shower, time to finish any unfinish work for the cleaners, and time for t.v. Don't gt me wrong- I love my family, but it is nice to spend time with Bret alone.

Well Brooke this was fun, and I enjoyed yours so much. I hope I did it right. So now I am going to tag Rachel Cunningham. Yay!

Here we come 2nd grade

This was Sam's big day. She is officially done with 1st grade and ready for 2nd. The award that she is holding is from her class awards assembly and she got it for being the most advanced in SCIENCE. Do you believe it- my child and science.

Emma graduation




This is Emma's big day. She graduated from Sheri Yee's Montesorri school, and we are very proud of her. She did the funniest thing. Sheri Would say the kids name and they would walk up and shake her hand and get there diploma. Except for Emma. She was sitting in the chair just next to where Sheri was handing them out and so when she said "Emma King" - Emma just sat there and stuck out her hand to shake Sheri's and get her diploma. So funny- It was like she was to tired to get up and walk the 2 steps to Sheri, or could it be that she is in fact my child and just to lazy to get up out of her chair.

How much more fun can I have.





I look at pictures like this and think of how truely blessed I have been. I never thought that having twins would be this much fun. People always say to me how hard this must be, but I always say to them that it is way more fun then it is hard. The last picture is of us at Red Robin after the recital with our good friends.



So dang cute.

It's show Time!!


This is Samantha and Emma at the tummbling recital. It was so stinkin cute and funny. Better than any movie I have have ever seen. Emma danced to "Peanut Butter and Jelly", where as you can tell she was the jelly.Sam danced
to Beastie Boys "Wipe out". At the end she said to me"mom I didn't even wipe out during my tumbling". She is so funny.

It's official






Corbin is officially 3. Watch out world-cause here he comes.

It's cake time



Now for the best part of the party....THE CAKE. Yummy!

It's Pinata Time




We decided that since it was way to HOT outside,
that Bret would just install a hook into our ceiling
and hang the pinata from it. It was such a good
idea. The candy stayed clean and nothing melted.

Its Cake Time



As you can tell we had a theme at teh party. So I made Corbin his Spider-Man cake and he thought it was the coolest thing.

This is the entire gang with
Corbin's Spider-Man tatoos. He wanted everyone to have one so they could look tough like him.

My Boy is 3

This is Corbin in the morning while we are all eating breakfast. He opened all his presents in the buck. So we told him

that he need to cover up in his new Spider-Man towel.
Needless to say mom didn't eat breakfast that morning.
Not to say I didn't like my view.

Well, This is as good as it gets

This is the most recent picture of us all in March.



This is our Emma. She is decorating her cupcakes at her "BIG 5" Birthday Party. Emma is wearing a chefs hat that she made, and yes- she wore it all day.



This is our #3 Corbin who is turning 3 in 2 days on May 17th. You may notice that his face is a little beat up. That is because he went golfing with his dad, and insisted that while he was riding on the golf cart he didn't need his dad to hold onto him, and so yep- you guessed it. He went a flying into some lovely gravel. He is like his dad- a little accident prone. But we Love Him

This is my oldest Samantha with mom's roller blades on. We decided that they didn't fit her so for her 7th birthday she got a pair of heeley's.



This is the twins on there birthday. The big #1, and yes they did wear these all day. The older kids made sure of it.


This is the younger twin Mallory. She also is eating at Jo-Jo's.

Lets see if I can really do this

This is the older twin Audrey. She is at her Grandma Jo's house eating cheerios.
