My brother Lin and his family came to visit us. We went to this place called Amazing Jakes, it is like a glorified Chuck E Cheese.

TJ and Grandpa Jack

Keira, Chloe and Hailey

Lauren, Briana, Laney and Halle

The kids entertained us one night with a talent show. Oh and there was some serious talent. This is a pic of Briana and Halle singing for us.

Quick everyone make a goofy face.

Aunt Linda reading to Tj.

We visited the Mesa temple.

The Mariners spring training, the real reason Lin came to visit.

This lady's wonderful crack, we got to look at it our whole game.

My cousins Angie and Alfredo and their kids Aliah and AJ, came to visit us last week. They came for the sun, but it rained for 3 days. When the sun came out AJ got sick,shortly followed by Halle and Aliah with strep throat. The sick just keeps coming.

Here are some randoms.

Ginny in her bumbo. She doesnt like it one bit, but we caught her being good for a few.

It was whoville hair day at school. Laney wouldnt do it. You couldnt see the cup except when I took the pic.

Got home from disneyland and we were sick for two weeks. However we did manage to get Halle and Laney to their new softball teams. Halle is on a fastpitch team with 11-14yr olds. I think it is going to be a tough year, but she will learn alot. Laney is on a team with girls up to 9yrs old, she is the only 7yr old.

Two weeks in Arizona and we were off to Disneyland minus Tony. We met my brother Lin and family for a week in the happiest place on Earth. We ran from sun up to sun down and had a blast.

Your boyfriend Not mine.

Here are some pics of us enjoying the weather in February.

Sun

The girls look awfully cute.

Look at the sky it looks like a fake background.

Tony and Jack drove the moving trucks, while me and my mom drove the Van with the kids. We stopped for a day of fun at my brother Lins house.

We moved. Did you know? We left our perfect life full of family and friends, to move to a place called Arizona that is beautiful almost everyday, but very lonely.

Heres the house. I will probably post some inside shots when we get everything situated.

We had a combined Birthday for Laney's 7th and Tj's 2nd. We rented the Rogers High School Pool and swam away. With my scattered brain I forgot my camera (which might have been a good thing for those who didnt want to be remembered in their bathing suits.) I think the kids enjoyed their party. We had alot of loser friends and family that refused to get in their suits, but we forgive them and the good ones showed up to shoe their love. Thank You everyone for coming.
We are starting to say our Goodbyes. Me and Tony had to speak at church today and our move is getting closer and closer.

Ginny has been quite spoiled over the holidays. With Daddy home someone was always holding her, so to my surprise when I layed her down last night, she rolled right over.

TJ's birthday is tomorrow. He will be a big 2yr old. TJ is such a boy, life is about cars, trucks , playing ball and jumping off things. Right now he is copying everything his sisters say. He has learned to say stop it stinky poopy, which he learned from Chloe who learned it from Laney. TJ had his birthday a little early because Dad will be gone on the actual day.

Good investment. The kids havent stopped riding since he opened.

Our Ginny smiles and sucks her thumb and smiles and sucks her thumb smiles and sucks her thumb.

We made Gingerbread houses with the Lamb family.

Halles collapsed so she turned it into a flat cat house.

Tj had some help making it, but he ate it all by himself.

Christmas in our pj's. Our holidays started on Christmas eve and my parents home. We had a white elephant gift exchange, finger foods Grandma Virginia read us some Christmas stories. Then we were off to bed. The kids were kind and let us sleep in until 730. Santa left the kids a scavenger hunt to find their big presents. After presents we were off to Grandpa Ken and Grandma Annies home for breakfast and more presents. We finished our day back at my parents home for more presents and games. Loved it but we were so very tired and ready to be home.

Tj opened his first present. Hot Wheels and he was done. Happy with one present, we had to force him to open the rest. ( Yes those are boxes, moving boxes.)

At the white elephant Halle got a Snuggie and she loves it.
