Picture with Santa 2011

We took to the kids to see Santa today and I though Paige would be scared of him, but she wasn't. She even hugged him and told him "thank you" when we were finished. Parker has been telling me how him and his dad really want another dog. They need a "man's dog", aka a Goldendoodle and I have been telling him until we have a bigger back yard, Santa couldn't bring that. Of course, that is what he tells Santa he wants. Santa told him he would have to OK that with his mommy though!!! Thank you Santa!! Presley was consistent with the Barbie dream house. I love this time of year so much!!

Pa and Parker's Tuesdays

I can never express just how much I appreciate my parents. They are truly the greatest grandparents in the world!!! All three kids used to always spend the night with them on Thursdays, but now that Parker has started Kindergarten he cant go. So, now every Tuesday while I take the girls to dance, Pa comes and spends time with Parker. They go fishing if the weather is nice, or just play at home if not. Parker will never forget his Thursdays with Pa!!!

Presley's New Big Girl Room

We for the first time in 6 years have no baby furniture in our house. It is bitter-sweet, I guess. I'm loving watching the kids grow and blossom into their own little personalities, but sad they are not babies anymore. Presley decided she wanted the new room since it had the bigger bed and give Paige her room with the twin bed. That is where Paige has been sleeping anyway, so that worked great.

Trick-or-Treat

This year for Halloween Parker was Captain America, Presley was Strawberry Shortcake, and Paige was a Baby Berryican from Strawberry Shortcake. We had our annual Halloween party at our house and went trick-or-treating with all our friends. Halloween is one of our favorite holidays as the kids get bigger, they LOVE dressing up!! The only bad thing was we traded cars that day and since it was the last day of the month, the papers had to be signed by the time they closed to get the deal we were getting. Dean came home and took the kids with him to sign the papers, so I could finish getting everything ready for the party. Well, it took much longer than we thought it would because it was the finance guys first night, so they missed most of the party with all their friends. Talk about breaking my heart!! They did make it back just in time to go trick-or-trating though!!!! Happy Halloween 2011!!!

Bernice Young Elementary Birthday Bash

I feel so blessed that we live somewhere that our children are able to attend such wonderful schools. Young elementary Birthday Bash is a celebration of all the schools traditions. We had class parties and then back to the school that night for a yummy spaghetti dinner, kiss a pig contest, and carnival games. The kids had a great time, and it's always fun for the parents to catch up too!!

Parker Started T-ball - Summer 2011

I am a little behind on blogging, but I am determined to catch up documenting my babies lives! This past summer Parker got to start t-ball. He LOVED it to say the least and daddy got to be one of the coaches, which was so cool to both of them. Way to go Rockies!!!

Parker Turns 6!!!

I can not believe that my first-born baby is 6 years old! It seems like yesterday we found out we were going to be parents for the first time. This little guy has his mama wrapped around his little finger, I have to admit. He is so precious and so fun to be around. Everyday I cant wait for it to be 3:00 so the girls and I can go pick him up from school and hear all about his day. I'm pretty sure he is still singing Justin Bieber to all the girls on the playground at recess everyday! We love us some JB at our house, so of course that is what kind of party he wanted to have. He chose Jumpzone to have his pary at and they even played all JB songs over the speakers during his party. He thought that was pretty cool! He had a great party thanks to all his precious friends and family who came to help us celebrate 6 wonderful years with our precious Parker. Happy 6th birthday buddy, we love you more than you will ever know!!
