MORE DISNEYLAND

I realized the other day that Disneyland had their Christmas decorations up already and I could hardly contain myself. So, yesterday we got the twins out of school early and drove to the happiest place on earth and filled up on some HAPPY. It was WONDERFUL-I LOVE it when it's not crowded-we got to go on lots of BIG rides and see many characters. We WILL be back before this MAGICAL season is over.







Veteran's Day PARADE

I'm so glad I got up and took the kids to the parade, especially for my little MAN. He has recently become infatuated with the MILITARY. He has proclaimed, as of this month, he is going to be an army MAN. He says Tess and I will be at home praying for him. So we met up with: My dad, Janet, Todd, the boys, Megan, Kenners, Karen and Mason. We got a FEW donuts and found a seat. I had no idea it would be so crowded. Teegan hardly spoke the whole time. My dad kept asking me if he was okay. YES, he was just in AWE. I got teary-eyed a few times watching the men who have FOUGHT for our country salute each other with such respect. Teegan is even more obsessed now.





"You gotta ROCK with the BLACK and ROLL with the BLUE"

Tessa attended cheer camp last week with the high school cheerleaders from her school. Everyday she came home with a new cheer. She loved it so much. Saturday night she got to perform before the game. She was SUPER CUTE-If I do say so myself.






She was a MOM, he was a FOOTBALL PLAYER, and the little one was MINNIE.

There was LOTS and LOTS of:
family
kids
candy
chili
laughing
yelling
It was a GREAT, GREAT night.
Court-The pic of Mom, Carrie and I is for YOU! Do you LOVE it?














Lady Ta Ta, Turtle, Tater Tots

Tatum has grown so much over the past few months. We are really enjoying our TIME together. I realize now (since the twins are gone all day) that our time together is SHORT. I am really trying to make an effort to enjoy each SIMPLE day to its FULLEST. Here are a few things Tatey enjoys these days.

This is Taters and her SWEET PAPA WALLY. He is such a hands-on Papa. He comes over often since we are walking distance from his work. He is reading Tatum her favorite book these days COUNTING COLORS.

Tatum LOVES to swing. It is one of her favorite things these day. We spend LOTS of time in the backyard together, SWINGING!

Tate thinks she is the BIG girl now. This is her feeding Talan(who is wearing Tatum's pink sweater).

BIG WINNER

I entered a contest and I WON, I ACTUALLY WON. I still can't believe it. An AMAZING girl, AAREAN from LADITTA DESIGN created my banner. YOU ARE THE BEST AAREAN-I LOVE my new look!

ONE BIG HAPPY FAMILY


This is what our family looks like these days-All living together under one roof-
Me, hubby, my mom, my 27yr. old cousin, Teegan, Tessa, Tatum and Copper.

Natural HISTORY Museum



SCARY.

The kiddos loved all of the different animals.

They liked this dino you could pull all his bones off-they were magnetic.

Enjoying our lunch on the front lawn of the museum.

WHAT a CUTIE.

I promise you we just STROLLED by this LITTLE guy.

Gotta LOVE these BIG dinos.

All of these NICE spiders were just out in the open of this greenhouse that we STROLLED through.
