Jessie's thoughts of the day

Jessie’s thoughts of the day:

Getting ready for church yesterday, I was curling her hair. She said, “mom you know on the dollars with the president? They wore wigs!” I replied “yes, they did! That is silly isn’t it?” and she says “yes, and my hair looks like that president guy”

When Jessie was getting in her pajamas for bed she said “mom, I am turning into an old lady!” me: “what?! Why do you say that?” Jessie: “Because I have moles all over, I didn’t used to!”

Jessie is a riot! She got a haircut a few weeks ago and she likes it, because she can brush her own hair :)

Here's Jessie with her horse slippers.

And here are my good looking boys.

Back from Anacortes!

We went to Anacortes, WA last weekend! We had a great time seeing our friend's the Weaver Clan. It was cold, but NOT raining, so we went on a hike. If any of you have not been to the Pacific Northwest, please come. It is just beautiful here. The following photos are taken by Matthew, he has an awesome camera, and a good eye for taking awesome photos, so enjoy :)

Roller Skating party!

We were invited to our friend Justin's birthday party, they had it at Skate World. It was awesome! It still smelled like 1972 in there, complete with red and orange carpet. We had a lot of fun. The star glasses were party favors... we don't wear them on a regular basis, I promise ;)

Jessie was all over the place, the wall was her favorite place to be...

This is so funny, Mark took two pictures and then made this... it is just hilarious, enjoy LOL!!!

Christmas!

Christmas was a lot of fun this year. The kids have been seriously anticipating it for so long now! We all had a great day. Santa was very kind to the kids and brought them a new pet! Curren got an iguana and named him "Bullet" He loves it. We were woken up at 6:00 am by Jessie running in our room and saying "Dad! Santa brought us a TOAD!" And she ran out of the room, came back and said “no, it’s a lizard! Hurry and come see!” It was great. We watched movies, played the Nintendo DS (Jessie got one this year), along with a lot of new DS games. I hope you all had a great Christmas too. Let’s hope this lizard doesn’t escape from his cage anytime soon, he is really fast! :)

Lots of snow!

The kids totally lucked out around here, they got ALL week off from school! So this means a 3 week Christmas holiday for them. How good is life being a kid? I want to be one too!

We got our tree up this week :) It is a shrimpy one compared to what we had last year. But that is okay, it's a beautiful one. We got it all full of shiny decorations and have been enjoying it.

Curren has been sick all week, which is why he's not in many photos... Hopefully he'll be feeling better very soon.

Curren has a request

Curren is officially addicted to eggnog, so he says. Here is a note I found on the counter the other day with the empty eggnog carton on top of it.

I had better get to the store!

Dirt bike riding.

Mark got a new toy, to add to collection. He has been out quite a bit, when he is home anyway!

Curren went with him one time. :D
