New Years Eve!!

Mom, got free tickets from a friend of hers for Universal Studios - when we got there we were unsure on whether to stay or not due to the weather itself. It was going to rain, I was completely OK if we went back to our room, I love being there and just hanging out and playing with my toys. By the time we walked around City Walk we thought OK we will stay, but we ended up at Islands of Adventure instead, then we got to the gate and the gentleman working there said we can't use the tickets today because of their black out days. A lady heard Mom say we're leaving tomorrow and heading home, so she let us in and use her card to punch our tickets. We got on about 4 rides total as most of them were way over my limit for height, that was OK too because I really wanted to leave. The picture with the 3-D glasses on that was for the Spider man ride, it was kind of scary to me. We would have gotten more pictures of us on rides, but we couldn't use the cameras it was there rule. We shortly left the park and headed out to the movies. We went to see "The Water Horse". I have been wanting to see that movie and Mom promised we would see it.

Day at the Pool

We had a free day to just hang around the pool and have fun. At this hotel we stayed at the water park has only been opened 1 week the guy said. It was fun, I had a blast in it. Dad, even took some video of me like you see with the close up picture. Mom, is going to try and load it on so everyone can see it.

Downtown Disney

Mom, Dad and I went to Orlando for a long weekend. Our first stop as they promised was to stop at lego land for you know what, another lego set. This is the one I really wanted, but for some reason Santa give me the one I wanted 2nd in line. Woo Hoo.....I got my parents wrapped around my fingers......just kidding. Mom, is knew as the lego queen - she loves putting my legos together. It only took her about 2 hours to get this one together. Afterwards for a night time snack, we stopped by Baskin Robbins. Boy was that treat good and big at that.

Day at Cypress Gardens

Well, late this morning we headed out to Cypress Gardens. We decided to leave later then earlier as we wanted to see what is was like to be there at dusk. It was beautifully decorated for Christmas with lovely poinsettias all over the place. The kids as always had a blast - we must have walked for miles, back and forth to the same stuff. The kids did great - being they had to deal with their personal photographer all day long. I have to say one thing for sure, my DH got me a really good camera. I have never taken any real close ups of butterflies and or flowers, but as you can see by the picture - this camera took wonderful pictures. I can't wait to use it this weekend on our trip. So, sit back and relax and enjoy the pictures. I did have 53 of them for viewing, but I screwed my rock you up the first time and didn't feel like adding them all over again.

Sam's lego

Oh, my goodness - Sam, wanted me to put this lego together last night....yeah OK I said NOT!! And I'm so glad I didn't. I got up this morning and started putting this together at 9:30am - want to know how long it took me to put together? I'll tell you - after taking a small break for lunch I continued on putting this lego together till it was done and that was at 4:30p....yup you read this post right, 7 whole hours - minus about 15 mins for lunch. My back and neck were killing me - I was so sore, even Todd messaging me didn't do any good. I will NEVER get another lego set that has 1,326 pieces to it.

Christmas Day!!

Wow, Merry Christmas to our Friends and Family and thank you so much for checking out our blog. First off I want to thank David and Laurie for giving Sam a nice Christmas as Sam stayed over night with his Dad! Our morning began by meeting David to pick Sam up. Just after we got home, we all checked under to tree to see if there were a baby placed under it, and found nothing - but we still had a great Christmas. We all got a lot of nice things. Sam as always hit the JACKPOT this year especially with the Wii games. He ended up with 12 new games, 5 from us, 4 from his Dad and Laurie, and 2 Grandma's and a Aunt. Santa, left Sam the Lego that he's been dying for and a metal detector. He got 2 V-rockers which you can see by the smile box he's sitting in. And he got like 7 gift cards, Apple bees, Subway, Regal Movies, Walmart, Toys R Us, Target and some cash to go along with that and lots of other things, way to many to list. And we can't forget all the other big things we got before Christmas, Sam's nice wide screen for playing games on, our camera and computer. We were very happy with the things we got. Now, we can only PRAY that 2008 is going to be our YEAR - the Year of the Rat!! So, once again "MERRY CHRISTMAS"..everyone.

Make a slideshow - it's easy!

Merry Christmas

Pictures to follow later!

Time to light the Candle

I have been ask to light the candles again at Church. I had a little difficulty this time being that the little table was in the way. First when I went up the candle flame had gone out and I didn't know it, so a man from the Church lite my candle back up for me. I was also ask to come and light the candle the first of next year.

Here is a picture of my 3 Great Cousins....from left to right we have "Adien" 11 mos, that Cousin Patricia's baby. "Ethan" 6 mos, cousin Jessica's baby, and "Seth" 18 mos cousin Christopher's boy. My Mom brought the matching shirts for them from Carters.

Visiting with Santa!!

What a night this turned out to be!! First off Sister Chrisann entered her daughters into a drawing to win a free bike from DQ!! And look at the lucky WINNER!! that's right it's our Meghan Before we left to pick up the bike, she talked with Sheighlin and I talked with Sam about friends who win things so they wouldn't be jealous not having one themselves. Chrisann said to Sheigh remember last week when we went to DQ and out of her mouth came - Meghan won the bike didn't she? Sam, said I would be happy for that person Mom, I'm glad it wasn't me because I'm afraid of them remember!! How funny with both answers. So, here she is with her new bike!

Now, it's off to see Santa. Sam's speech teacher at school has a Hugh display of lights right off 17, she said Santa will be there at 7:30. We took a walk around her property, had some popcorn and run into some other people from school we knew. Now, for what happened there when Sam saw him. It was prefect Greta and I had planned this one, Sam was the first one to see him, because his Mom stood in line to be sure that was going to happen so that our plan would work. Sam, walked up to Santa and before he even got up to him, Santa looked around in the dark and said who's that, is that who I think it is, Sam is that you? Sam, looked with a big surprise and said YES it's me Sam. Santa said Sam how are you, it's nice to see you - have you been good this year as he looked at Mom and I said yes, he's been a great boy this year. Santa, said Sam so hows the Wii going, Sam said good, he said how about some new Wii games for Christmas - Sam's eyes lite up....and said YES!!




Both of the girls ask for AG Doll (American Girl).

Alvin and the Chipmunks

Mom took me and Grandmom to see this movie. It's my second time seeing it as the first time was last week with Dad, Laurie and Adam.

Fun Day & Xmas Break begins...

This morning Mom and I headed to school. All the children in class were to bring something for our breakfast. Mom, volunteer to cook 2 pounds of the good bacon - "Oscar Mayer"...man was it a HIT!!! All the kids loved it and she ran out. Mrs. Mitchell made me head waiter because I lQQked so good...what do you think? I know I looked good because all the teachers who crossed my path said I was handsome and the cutest boy. So, my job here is passing out the plates.

Raven, is checking out my antlers as there slipping off my head.

Here we have Raven, Ben and Sam. I like Raven, she is good to me and helps me if I need it. Mom, likes her too because she is so smart....and cute. Sam, is always ready to go at school. I myself mentioned to the teacher that Sam was ready and waiting for the next task. Although he does look a little tired - he did go to bed some what late last night being we were at Church and he didn't want to leave Dad behind after the Youth Group....funny pictures to come.

The entire second grade that's 6 classes were invited to the Media center to watch "Ratatouille". Mom and Mrs. Mitchell went back to the class room to clean off everyone desk for a fresh start in the new year.

Our job was to clean out the desk and our pencil cups. I was ready to go home at this point. Mom and I left school at 12:45 today, only because the next step was the entire 1st, 2nd and 3rd grade classes were meeting outside to sing Christmas songs and I didn't want to, so we left.....woo hoo... Winter Break has began.

Youth Night at Church

After our Awana program, Mom and I stayed to watch Dad get covered in MESSING STUFF! This was so fun that I didn't even want to leave and go home. Everything they had on their head is listed below in the last pic. The Youth Group, let me join in on all the fun, I got to put some stuff on Dad's head too. The apple sauce was really cool looking sitting in his head. Everyone had a great time - Dad, claims he and Mr. K do stuff like this all the time to the kids and now it was their turn. Afterwards one of the Mom's brought about 5 large pizzas for us to eat.

Fun Day at School!

This morning first thing, Sam gave Mrs. Mitchell her Christmas Gift!! She couldn't help but to stick that big bow on his head. He gave her a Chinese Calendar and she loved it. Mommy, loved it too and is hoping to get one for Christmas. Either Dad or Aunt Chrisann picked one up for her.



Mom, brought in enough Penguins for the entire class to make a craft. Mom is very good about Holiday giving and making things with the class. I was trying on for size to see if mine would fit my nose....lol. Then now we have a picture of every ones penguin.



Here my teacher gave us a little bit of time to do an AR test. So, I tested on Clifford and got 4 out of 5 questions right, that's 80%.

This is my class with their penguins they made. Mom and I took all of their gifts in this morning, but time went by so fast that we forgot to give them out. Mom is coming back to school tomorrow afternoon to help me past them out, then she will help again in my class all day Thursday.
