Guitar Hero Fun





Last Night Rebecca, Allyse and Nathan had a blast playing Superbus on Guitar Hero III. Nathan isn't old enough to really play but that didn't stop him from Jamin!

Catching Up

So I guess 8 months is a little long in between posts. So what have we been up to? More of the same. School, homework, work and having fun.

This summer we had a great time. We went to San Diego and had a blast! We went to Sea World and spent a lot of time at the beach on Coronodo Island. We had fun boogie boarding and just hanging out. The girls loved the ocean and Nathan loved the sand.


We also went to Utah to visit David's family. We haven't been up to Utah for a few years and so we had a lot of fun catching up with family. We enjoyed hiking in the canyon and actually saw one of the best firework shows we've ever seen on the 24th of July right in the small town of Mapleton, Utah!














David finished school at the end of August and now has his Masters in Information Systems Engineering! He worked like crazy in September so October was our first time in a while of having him come home from work and actually have time to hang out with us. We've really enjoyed spending more time with him.

Rebecca and Allyse are loving school this year. They both have friends in their classes which always makes for added fun. Nathan is loving life. Finding different adventures every day.



We had a great Halloween. Nathan was Superman, Allyse was a rock star, Rebecca was a nurse and David dressed up as Harry Potter.

It's A Crazy Life

I know I'm not the only one who feels that life is flying by.

I can't believe that February is almost over already. We try to pack so much into every day. I've never understood how everyone manages to find the time to blog but we're going to try and squeeze one more thing in.

Just to catch everyone up on us we are doing well. We have been repainting our living room, kitchen and family room. That was fun with a 19 month old running around. Needless to say we tried to get it done during nap time and after he went to bed at night. We finally finished yesterday and now Rebecca and Allyse are dying to have their room painted. We have already bought the paint but I need a week to recover before I start another huge project.

Nathan is just a ball of fun. He is into everything. He feels it is his job to explore anything and everything. I knew we were in for a great day on Friday when we were all trying to get ready for the day and he took his cereal bowl (yes with milk and cereal still in it) from the table and put it onto the floor. Needless to say that he wanted some help cleaning the soggy Frosted Flakes off his leg. And yes he had taken his pants off. I guess he learned a knew skill.

We'll hope that learning to put them back on comes next. Later in the day he got really excited and came and got me and was so thrilled with what he had done he just had to show me. His prize art project was blue scribble all over the hallway. He was very hurt when he got in trouble and also was made to help wash off his masterpiece. We would be so bored without this little guy.

Last month David and I took the girls to the Hannah Montanna concert. We had so much fun. As Allyse puts it she was screaming her head off like a maniac. Rebecca was a little more reserved than that but we all had a really fun time!

For Valentine's Day I gave David a garden. He had kept asking me to plant one and I finally told him that I was too busy and he'd have to plant one himself. So that week I felt guilty and decided that would be a great surprise. We planted tomatoes, strawberries, zucchini, peas, broccoli, bell peppers, carrots, squash, cucumbers, and spinach. So hopefully we can keep everything alive.
