The best is the picture below, right after this picture was shot, Luke smacks Allie in the Butt with the stick he is holding...Crazy boy

Thankful Sun-Monday...

Well since I was driving all day yesterday, this is a Monday post but hey the point is still there right?

I am thankful Adam called yesterday on his Birthday, so A. I could know he made it, B. We could say Happy Bday, C. So he could say that walking on the beach without me is just no good! I love my hubby and I a miss him a ton! I love that he told me that he was sitting on the beach reading and then realized, Hmm, today is my Birthday! NICE!

I am thankful that we traveled Safe all the way to my mom's with Only one small incident of a crazy Mini-van driver trying to take us out by coming into our lane ON Top of us! But hey, at least our exit was about 1/4 mile after that and we were off the highway the rest of the trip.

I am thankful that I have good kids who despite NOT wanting to sit in their carseats all day they did anyway and maybe even had a "little" fun too.

And I am thankful for my momma to ride with us...It is a LONG trip!

Niagara Falls...Again

Me and the Boy

My momma, and Papa

Lukes new crazy face...where did we get him?

Luke was diggin' seeing all the helicopters.

The cutest kids I have ever had!

We also made a quick trip to Niagara Falls today Allie has wanted to show her Meme & Papa the falls for ages now....we ate at the Top of the falls, which was expensive! ouch!
Allie and Luke had fun running around! They were so fun, Luke had a new funny face he has been making all day today... Don't ask I have no idea...Allie was so excited cause Papa bought her a hat...Spoiled kid! So it was a VERY busy day, I kinda was going nuts since I haven't slept well in a few nights... So why am I up posting at 11:30? Hmm, good question...ZZZZzzzzz......

Dance Dance Dance...

Oh those girls are so cute! They did such a good job...Well they made the place pitch black and the one girl who is afraid of the curtain didn't know about the dark part freaked out and just stood and cried! Poor girl...But Allie did her wonderful normal stuff, cute girl! She is full of life that one! I only took pictures of the finale because you really weren't supposed to take pictures but Hey it was the finale and after that go ahead, kick me out! hehe

Strike a pose!

My Boy Lollypop dancers!

Our STAR!

The Cutest Ever!

Those ones right in front that are brightest are Allie's class, and the on on the Right End is Allie.

Tomorrow is the day....

Adam is leaving for Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic... They found out they didn't get to stay at the REALLY nice place they only get the Pretty nice place seen below... How sad... Hopefully he will find something to do there, and get Allie some nice seashells or sand or something.
Allie's dance recital is tomorrow night and I am so excited for that to be over! They had their rehearsal last night and it was pretty funny, one of the girls just stood there and cried! But the rest of the girls did pretty well, except when they tried to exit the stage, the crying girl just stood there and they tried to pull her off! FUNNY! It is going to be a laugh, I just hope crying girl pulls it together for the big night! My mom and grandparents are on their way here to see the kids and then we will go back to VT with my mom, for a few days. Hopefully the kids will do good on the trip... I need to get things packed up too but I am so tired! I feel like this week has been crazy and I just can't get enough sleep! Well anyway, I hope you all have lovely weekends, it is hotter than ever here, at 8:30 this morning it was like 78 outside! You for sure can't win here it is crazy weather land. I will try to update from my Mom's, I am getting my hair cut on Wednesday!!! I can't wait! I need less hair! Wish us all luck!

That Luke!

This boy is so silly, I didn't get the camera in time... but he was sitting up in the bin playing, by the time I got back he was climbing out... but he is a crazy man anyway!

he figures everything out... just hold this toothbrush in my teeth, yup that will work!

Sweet success!

My little book girl! She is a sweetie!

Kids & Random comments from the peanut gallery

I just love these cute faces! Today we had a big Ford truck in front of us and Allie said what does that truck say on it? I said Ford, she said No American Idol...hmm, Smart girl! Then she wanted to know why our car didn't say American Idol! See Ford those millions are working! Now if she only had money!

Just in Case...

You happen to be planning a trip to the Palmyra Pageant, Let me know! It would be fun to get together...Last year I got to see Natalie and family and it was just fun to see her! By the way these are the pass along cards they gave us at Church to invite people to Pageant... So consider yourself invited! Also Just so you know, this isn't a lame pageant! This thing is pretty intense and amazing they have fires, volcanos, earthquakes, lots of pyrotechnic stuff...(it's not Manti that is for sure)

Thankful Sunday

1. Luke sat through about 8 or so minutes of Church today without screaming! (or being asleep) But then he did lose it and finally fell asleep for Adam, after much screaming in a back room! But progress is Progress right?

2. I am thankful it isn't super hot, and that it isn't snowing...(I have to find something nice to say about our weather right?)

3. We have some new things in our family Bikes! Adam bought a bike yesterday and we bought a little bike trailer for the kids a few weeks ago, so we are all Biked now. Yeah! I am excited for that, and the kids love riding in the trailer.

4. Distraction, it is my best friend, everytime I get out and do something I forget for a while that I don't feel Fabulous! Baby showers, parks, stores, long rides they are all helpful!

5. Redbox, I know silly but hey 1.09 for a movie that is great! And honestly we really don't watch many movies, I have a sister in law who seems to have seen every movie that has come out and she seems so shocked that I haven't seen movies from 6+months ago... But hey, what can I do, Thanks Redbox, we saw Transformers last night, I thought I wouldn't like it but it was much better than I had thought it would be.

6. For getting to go to Relief Society, I think after a few months I am actually starting to miss it a little. It was a good lesson today and it made me realize some cool thing, so I was thankful to actually have some Church in my church today.

7. The internet, blogs, and emails, I am friends with so many of you lovely people who I love and enjoy hearing from, who if it wasn't for the internet I would probably either Not know at all or would not still be in touch with!

8. This one is going to be jumbled I am thankful that Dance is almost over! That Adam only has 1 wk left of school, that it is JUNE! Ok think I am done now but hey you never know!

Where's the Beach?

This evening we went to the Beaver Island State Park beach for a Class of 2009 picnic...It was Freezing! But that didn't stop my Crazy kid from getting wet. "It's not that bad mom!" haha, it is that bad you're just numb! The wind was blowing so hard it was crazy! Even the seagulls where having a hard time flying... they just kinda hovered there. We also saw some Crazy big fish jumping right up out of the water HUGE fish! And the gulls were dive bombing straight down they would just Drop in the water and then reappear a few seconds later, it was crazy! As for the picnic... well I have had better, but hey what can we do!

Adam even chased the Gulls to show Luke how to do it right!

I love that Allie is off the ground in both the pic above and below!

She got really crazy for a minute and then thought Hmm, yeah it is a bit cold!

Hey where is Luke?

Nice spot!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!

Well sorta... Say hello to our new baby...Hello! This is the newest member of our family and she/he is due to arrive December 24th, 2008... So like I said , MERRY CHRISTMAS!The baby was sleeping when we first looked and then it woke up and started moving around a bit... it was neat to realize hmm, there is someone living in my belly!

They also have 4D, and this is the baby seahorse, Oh I mean Shepherd below... but it looked more like a seahorse in this mode...

Enjoy!

Well...

In order not to cry, I am pretending that this was how I wanted the pictures to turn out... and that I borrowed someones really old really crappy camera to take them....My advice for the day is NEVER under any circumstance EVER allow anyone to touch your camera.... Just friendly advice...




Allie's day turned out great actually I was so excited that the rains never came, and it was a lovely day, the kids were so funny they had stage shock, and were all dancing completely different, it was the best dance by far, just cause it was so cute. They we went and rode rides...this whole time we could tell something was up with the camera since it wasn't taking pictures as fast as it normally does, but I wasn't sure what was wrong so I didn't know how to fix it. DARN! Then Lucas got on that car ride, and he was the happiest little man in the country. He rode twice, he was in heaven! Allie rode everything she could get too, it was a really fun day! Till I got home and downloaded the pictures, then I just wanted to cry...But hey I got it on video...Which is great! These two are ones that make me want to cry....

Today is the day....

Allie's dance program, (one of them) We are holding out for no rain, even though there is a 50% chance... Hopefully it will go well and she will get to have fun, so hopefully updating later with fun pictures etc.

Not to mention it is Memorial Day, I am sad we didn't get to go put up flags this year, Everything seems Off this year, the weather is the pits, and I am tired, and things feel weird...
But I guess that is just how it goes sometimes... I have more to say but I will get to that later too... I have so much to do!
Wish us LUCK! Mostly Allie who keeps asking why her teacher won't be on stage with her! Yikes!

Thankful sunday

I am thankful for having spent the afternoon with the family we went to a little river near here and the kids threw about a million rocks into the water and ran up and down and up and down a hill for a half hour...
I am thankful for the library again, we got about13 books and it is fun to read books that we haven't ever seen before and don't have to keep forever!
I am thankful for getting out of the house for nice weather though tomorrow that is going to probably change... Of Course...
I am thankful for one more year in NY... at least that that is all we have in NY! Sorry, I need more sunshine!

Kinda lame this week but I am Very Very tired, and honestly I am going to bed!

Which leads me to say I am thankful for a comfy bed.....ZZZzzzzzz.....

Happy Birthday Annette!

We wish you a great birthday! Don't worry your card isn't in the mail, it is just going to be late! Sorry I am a major slacker this year...After I am done being sick I will get back on the ball...
We hope you have a great day, and enjoy whatever you are doing!

Happy Birthday!
