Pay It Forward!

So, here's how this game works-the first 3 people to leave a comment on this post will receive, at some point during the year, a handmade gift from me. What it will be and when it will arrive is a total surprise! The catch is that you must participate as well. Before you leave your comment, write up a pay it forward post on your blog to keep the fun going (or be lazy and copy and paste like I did). Then come back, let me know you're going to play and sit back and anticipate the arrival of your gift! Well isn't this fun?

Carrie's getting married

My sister in law Carrie is engaged to John Snyder! They got engaged on Valentines Day,same as us, and are getting married on May 8th. We are so excited for them and are excited to have John as the newest member of our ever growing family! We love you two!

Tristan

Tristan is our little creative man, he takes after Mike in that. He was drawing a picture of Mike and I and this is what it turned out to look like. The circles on his arms are his muscles and the stick in his hand is a golf club,cause if you know mike, he would sleep with his clubs if he could....and me,well, apparently im sitting on a boat, i dont know....funny kid!

THAT time of the year...

So its that time of the year when the air gets chilly, the leaves turn yellow and fall off the tree, and my family gets the stomache flu... Tristan always seems to be the first to get it. His teacher called me and said Tristan had run back and forth to bathroom so she went to check on him and was sitting on the floor with him head in the toilet. Hey at least I taught him well huh?! Poor kid! So I went and got him and put him in some pj's and set him up with crackers and sprite all comfy in his bed watching tv. I love this season of the year but I loath THIS time of the year, so wish me luck!

Potty Training, YAY!!!

I have been wanting to get Emma potty trained FOREVER! We ran out of diapers and I decided I wasnt going to buy anymore so I put some panties on her. She went through a few pairs before bed and actually woke up dry so I thought we would possibly have a good day. This morning she went through 3 more pairs before she finally went in her little toilet. I was so excited! The prospect of no more diaper changing is amazing! Then like 10 minutes later she ran out and said she pooped and sure enough she did! I am so excited for her (and me) and she is so excited to wear big girl panties, she even has a potty dance that she does every time she goes in the toilet, its so cute!

Now she just needs to figure out how to pull them up all the way:)

Christopher Judge

Most of you know that my father in law owns a video game company that is producing the Stargate Worlds MMO game and Mike is and artist on the game. Every once in a while we get to meet celeb's that invest so that is really fun! We got to meet Christopher Judge from the tv series Stargate SG1 and had dinner with him. He is the nicest guy ever! It's really fun to meet people you see on tv, kinda wierd too:) Above is my bro and sis in law, Krishelle & Ansou.
Here is my bro and sis in law Melodie & Bradley and Mel's boyfriend Keith.
Mike & I with Chris. Mike got to go golfing with him too!
