18 months= Nursery!

"Mom, so what's the Big Deal about being 18 months?"


"I'm going to NuRsErY?!?

"I've gotta sit down!"

A Sweet Reunion!

My Niece Jennifer was put up for adoption over 22 yrs ago. She was found about a month ago by my cousin Jonean on a website that allows people looking for adoptive parents/children to find each other. We've always wondered how she was doing, where she was, thought and talked about her many times when our family got together over the years. She was my Mom's first grandchild, so she was especially happy to find her and meet her again, but not as happy as Jennifer's mom Mary. Mary is my 3rd oldest sister and has not been in the best of health the past 5-6 years due to Lupus. She flew out here from California last Saturday and stayed a week, mostly in Graham. While here she was able to meet her mother, grandma, 3 uncles, 3 aunts and 4 cousins. I'm sure it was emotionally exhausting for her, but we were glad she was able to come and spend time with us.My mom seeing her first grandchild for the first time in over 22 years.Sarah greeted her with open arms.A hug from her mom after sooooo many years!

We ate at Pf Changs for lunch, just the girls, before dropping Jennifer off at the airport. YUMMY!

Pre School!!!

Ammon started Pre School! Ammon for months was asking if he could go to school, almost everyday!! After talking about it with Jason we decided to put him into a pre school even tho he is only 3. After researching and visiting several in the area, we found the one that we felt great about sending him to. He goes two days a week, Tuesday and Thursday from 9-2pm.
This is the smile he wears each day he gets to go. He loves it and is enjoying it so much.He is really into making silly faces right now:) This was one of a hundred the morning of his first day while I was trying to get a few good ones....lolready to go Rain or Shine!
We found his name.....


This is Mrs. Kim. We could not have asked for a better teacher!

Jason Turned 35!

One year older and wiser too!!! 9-4-10
We celebrated by going to the zoo followed my a yummy lunch at Panera Bread! Jason and Ammon went to the movie grill that afternoon with some friends and had lots of fun. We of course finished our day with some yummy cupcakes.
Malia and I decorated while the boys were away and surprised daddy when he came home:)
