Monday night fun

We watched Mikaela for the day yesterday while her mom had her new baby. Annie and Avrie had so much fun playing with her and they were glad she could have a sleep over with them. Brad and all the other kids put together our new basketball hoop.

Our Lazy Weekend.

Brad and I borrowed season #1 of "Alias" from Mike and Meagan the other night. We had never seen it before so we thought we would try it out. Well me and Brad are hooked now. Mike has all 5 seasons and each season is about 20 hours long. We have seen the whole 1st season and are now into the 2nd, so as you can see we were pretty lazy this weekend - pretty pathetic huh? This is a picture of my mom and dad, Mike, Meagan, Avrie and Brad.

Avrie's Pictures!

Lately Avrie has been wanting me to take her picture. I think she want's to be a model like her cousin Phoebe. Ha Ha. Hey, at least she's smiling and not making her funny expression face.

Our Fun Cruise!

I just found my scanner a few days ago and so I finally got around to scanning our cruise pictures. We went on a cruise in October with my family and it was alot of fun. My dad had just broken his arm and had surgery so he was on drugs the whole time and doesn't remember alot of it but he was sure acting like he was having fun. Me and Brads room caught on fire in the morning after I had just barely rolled out of bed. My sister Mandi and her husband were kind enough to let us stay in their room until the smoke was gone. Boy, that was a trip to remember. No, I think all of us had alot of fun. We need to go on another cruise again!

DisneyLand!

I thought this was the funniest picture of my kids - you can just see the terror in their faces. Surprisingly they loved it and all went on it again.

Pictures of DisneyLand

We went to Disneyland last Thursday and Friday and had so much fun. We went with my sister Mandi and her family. The lines were very short and we got on each ride pretty fast. The weather was cold and windy though so my kids came back with cough's and runny noses. All the kids but Avrie could go on about every ride so it was nice. The kids were very brave on some of the bigger rides - I was amazed that Annie loved the "Tower of Terror."

Bubbles, bubbles and more bubbles!

The only thing interesting that happened this week was with Annie and Avrie. They decided to take a bubble bath because they got some bubble bath from their Grandma Jane. Well, when I went upstairs to check on them I realized that both bottles of their bubble bath were emptied out into the tub. There were suds and bubbles everywhere. So, I decided to drain the tub and try to get them all rinsed off. All of a sudden I hear Katelyn downstairs laughing and Brad yelling "What's going on?" I ran down stairs to find the downstairs toilet overflowing with bubbles! Our plumbing pipes were full of bubbles. I think we will stay away from bubble baths for awhile. This is Brad in front of the bathroom.
