The BIG D!!






So I finally figured out the whole picture thing, turns out its not that hard. So We got to play with Alice, The Mad Hatter, Mary Poppins and Bert. We played Limbo and sang songs and Hokey Pokey. It was so much fun. I definatly recommend the Princess Lunch if your kids like the princesses It was so much fun and Abbi and Syd are still talking about it.

Valantines

So Abigail got her first valantine from a boy yesterday. She came home with a blue braclet, probably from a happy meal, and told me that Tristan, the BOOOYY, had given it to her for Valantines. Only a 6 year old can turn a one sylable word into a 6 sylable word. She was happy for a present and I was thinking " are you kidding me you are only 6 years old and not old enough to be getting presents from boys" AAARGGG. Tristan really seems to like Abbi, when I volunteer in her class he just hangs on every word she says and follows her around. She only seems anoyed that a BOOOYY won't leave her alone. Thank heavens, Im just not ready for a crush yet.

5 K what the $%^%

So Lisa and I ran my first 5k on Jan 19th. I finished. No, actually I did pretty well. I finished in 35 minutes. Lisa did a little better, but she waited for me at the finish line so our times are pretty much the same. Lou told me that during the race i would probably hate it and wonder why the &^% I had paid to do it, but by the time I got home I would be ready to sign up for another one. Guess what... She was right. Who knows maybe I could even work up to a 10k. I would have never guessed that I would ever call myself a runner, but it feels pretty good to give myself that title.

DISNEYLAND!

So we are back from Disneyland and it was so much fun. Carter stayed home with Grandma Trisha and Papa Amazing. He didn't think he would have any fun if he went :) And the rest of us had a blast!! Some of the highlights...
* The princess lunch- The princesses came around to each table to say hi sign autographs and give hugs. Sydney could hardly stay in her seat, she was so excited to see Cinderella. And she kept yelling Abbi there is your favorite one to, see see see Sleeping Beauty!
* The Electric Parade- Abbi was so excited to see Alice in Wonderland, and I thought she was going to hyperventilate when Alice singled her out to say hi and ask her questions. Then later in the park Abbi and Syd got to play Limbo and the Hoky Poky with Alice, and the mad hatter.
* Quote of the trip "Dad, you really need to chew up and swallow your food better so it doesn't get stuck in your neck" Abbi thought Jeff's (Little, tiny only shows up when he bends his head) double chin was food that he hadn't swallowed. Good thing jeff has a sense of humor. We are still laughing about that one.

There were so many fun things that I can't even tell them all, but all of the fun stuff made up for the way the trip began. Abbi gets car sick and it was really bad this time. Jeff has learned that when I say pull over I mean pull over this instant. He learned that the hard way, projectile vomit into his hair, and all over his seat. enough said.
