yeah let me guess she will have a belly ache everyday now that she hornswaggled us into a day off. but at least she was learning something, gravity centrifical force, what goes up must come down. well it was fun anyway
These are 3 of Cannons' friends at his school. I adore these boys but let me tell you -they often spell TROUBLE
One of my favs
This pic didn't turn out so good when I scanned it but its me and gramps, who means the world to me!!

Battle of the minds!!
These two are quite the match for eachother!
Look close and you can see Rudy is sporting a lovely winter sweater with polka dots from the oh so shiek "pets mart" line
And you wonder why this kid acts out in public??
He likes to be caged, he just doesn't know how to control himself when allowed to run free, with all that room and space...
rude awakening..
Dec. 13 So I thought I'd share a little story of today's events. This morning before I took Cannon to school I decided to cut his hair.. He looked at me before I took the first snip and said "you better not mess this up lady". It was quite funny...
However it was our afternoon events that led to the rude awakening. I took Cannon to the pet store to buy some fish for his new turtle "tuck". Tuck has not been eating his food and each morning before Cannon wakes up Chris and I check to make sure the turtle is still alive. (let me tell you this was not the greatest idea of gifts, however Cannon thanks us daily for this turtle that is hanging on to life by a thread and is oh so non exciting), anyhow we looked on line and found out that they enjoy eating small goldfish once a week. So we went to buy some and Cannon was oh so excited. We brought them home and added them to Tucks water. Cannon could not contain his excitement and introduced Tuck to his new friends, calling them each individual and creative names. The fish had been in there no more than 10 seconds when Tuck took a bite of one and Cannon lost it!!! I mean lost it!!! He was hysterical and started screaming.. "mom he's killing the fish!! Mom hurry !!" well I was right there and just then I remembered that I had not explained the reason why we had purchased the fish... Then I explained to Cannon that Tuck needed to eat the fish blah blah blah to stay alive. Cannon said "cool" and went on with his day. So much for the fish!
FINALLY THE SNOW!!!
Just to update you on our much anticipated first day of skiing. Chris took the kids skiing for the first time this season last Fri.. and it was great!! Bailey left Chris and Cannon behind because they were slowin her down.. Where's the pictures you ask? Well me not being there ( I was workin as usual) means no camera- So this week you'll get a skiing pic for sure!!! *****
No One Left Behind....
This last week I returned from a funeral in Texas.. One of my best friends Lisa had passed away... I thought of one of my mom's favorite sayings..No one Left Behind.. I am just glad to know that no matter what I do in my life that I feel that my family would never leave me behind and that my life always has meaning.. Lisa and her family had parted ways many years ago and never got back together; even at the time of her death her family decided not to be there to remember her...I will always remeber her and the friend she was to me.. She got me through a rough few months when Chris and I couldn't be together..
Thanksgiving 2007
This day ended up crazy.. I worked that morning and Chris worked that night so we handed off the kids while I ran to dinner down in SL for a few minutes..
thanksgiving crafts
Thanks to Laurel Wilcox the kids always have some crafts to participate in for thanksgiving!!
very few things about this kid that I can resist
the eyes, the smile, his good taste in favorite parents !!
couple of turkeys
Us!!
if you haven't met us you can see you are missing out!!
missing the beach, especially when we hit that oh so tropical temperature of 20
just Gogie being well supervised by his parents
Last New Years
our friends the Moreno's lived with us at the army base
Lance's project
my mom got Cannon an enormous pirate ship for his birthday and Lance put it together all the kids were sitting there patiently awaiting the masterpiece
the dog
this is the third child also likes to be dressed up
the cat
Cannon prefers that cat is in disguise, it makes the cat more interesting
kindred spirits
Gogie and I both have double chins and big bellies so we are like a match made in heaven .. I adore this boy
is it too much to keep putting pictures of myself on this blog?
Is vanity still one of the seven sins or did we finally do away with it?
raegan, angie, the kids and my mom all spent some time in San Antonio together
Nov. 12, 07
Bailey dancing at the Utah State Basketball half time show!!
34 and going fast...
so as the year comes to an end so does the possibility of Chris getting any younger... 35 is approaching fast!!
one of our best days!!
viva fiesta!!! A week long party in Texas with daily parades and festivals it is one of our favorite times!!
at the lake in vermont, oh wait again the front yard- I was confused with all that water and what fun we were having that day!
all we need is love
Anyone that has kids probably finds they all have the same love/hate relationship
Mike
so again, if you have kids and a brother in law living with you -you get the love / hate relationship between kids right? In all honesty I couldn't live without Mike and neither could my kids!!
