Blast from the past....

This pic is at the end of the jump session... we should have done it in the beginning [sigh]

Some old friends of mine (we were cheerleaders in high school together and good friends) decided to have a playdate with our children. I just so happened a few weeks ago we were all in the same place at the same time at Cal State. I never go to admissions but needed too, Rachel (on the right) works there and Kathy (in the middle) is going back to school there. Its funny 10yrs later all have kids blah blah blah blah.
Gav and Jake (1/2 a yr apart, Jake older) hit it off and when never saw them again =) The babies were all good together but A being the big girl she is tried to be in the big jumpers =) Kylie and Austen are 4mo apart (A older) and Dylan a yr in March. Shhh!!! Kat has another one on the way ;)
Another fun day with adults and being able to bring my kids =) score!!! Next time the museum

Can't wait to spend time with family and up in the mountains later Christmas day. I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and that the rains didn't affect anyone... I'm thankful our roads are open and I heard of no injuries

Merry Christmas

Moody Monday

We are all in a funk at the same time!

I wake up crappy (sore throat, headache and cramps), Gav didn't want to wake up, A fussy and Boom not feeling well. Realize we woke up late as well and no milk in the fridge. I couldn't make breakfast (didn't realize e rely on milk so much). I figure lets turn the day around and go have breakfast at the local cafe. We were all happy...
We drop Gav off first, he doesn't want to go to school. I finally get him inside and there was attitude but he reluctantly goes to class. Next A who seemed ok to go but was off. Boom and I had a tone of work to get done around the house, studying for my final, him paperwork and nothing was accomplished =(
We get Gav from school and I let Boom go in alone. As they came out I saw this weird disappoint look on their faces. Boom picked Gav up from the director's office. He didn't want to listen to his teacher and picked a fight (well tiff) with his best friend (they call themselves Mario and Luigi) over a toy.
Next is Austen... she didn't want to nap and decided to wake the rest of her classmates. And threw an all out fit over having no more juice in her cup.
We all had a moody Monday and needed a time out (no playing, no Christmas decorating, etc) to think about our behavior... wish I could have thrown a fit though :)
After dinner (we ordered pizza), we all fell asleep earlier. It was a long day for us.
By Tuesday morning, it was like Monday never happened. We all kicked back into gear. The kids were well behaved and we got some work done. I was happy to be done with my last final that day

Its funny how we all have a really good day or go through a funk at the same time

The tree is done... now time for the rest of the house

Gavin chose this picture to post. It was when A bonked him in the by accident. The November album shows the rest


After we made it back from a 5 hour ride home from Las Vegas, everyone thought Saturday was a great time to come home as well. We were able to get our tree done. The rest of the week is dedicated to decorating inside and out

The crazy things he randomly decides to do...

Gav decided he was a martial arts artist and began doing backflips on the couch. It took us a few minutes to grab the camera but we got it. It is never a dull moment with them and I love it

Thank you Boomer =)

It was an awesome day today because you brought the kids to school to visit me. It made my day

Yes you bring the kids to visit but I usually see them one at a time and we are normally in my lab. I was great watching them run around on the lawn next to the library. It was perfect.


Gavin playing in the hot air vent


Grass flying over the vent, we spent a good 10min being amused by this
