AZ Over Thanksgiving

We drove to AZ the day before thanksgiving to see my brother and sister in law

It is very beautiful

got to spend some time with Blaine and Brandon ( Bryan's Dad and Brother)

Thanksgiving

Unlce Brandon was able to make it to our holiday this year as well as grandma Dalot

We loved having everyone over

Grandma Dalot and Grandma Bergstrom had a good chat

My sister came for a visit

This is the after shot - I got my hair cut at supercuts I even showed the nice lady a picture of Katie Holmes "see the cute bob " -- " yes " the nice lady says then boom this happen she said "oops, it supposed to be longer in the front" OOPS is not a word I want to hear when you are cutting around my head

CA. Adventure and Disneyland

the castle has snow and the shops have Christmas stuff :) this is my favorite time of year (in 2 weeks when all the christmas stuff is up) it's beginning to look a lot like CHRISTMAS!

everyone needs a TINK santa hat

Christina loves the brother bear trail challenge at Ca. adventure she can climb a rock wall and run through a rope maze high above the ground

I passed the written CHP test so we had to celebrate and of course it had to be in the happiest place on earth

this is just like boot camp right?

Doggy Beach

The dogs have a issue when riding in the car they refuse to be touched by eachother so the kids are responsible to make share neither dog cross the line

Emma found a beagle friend

Sandy said " this is great I love going to the dog beach, I can feel the wind thru my hair"

Follow me I know the way

Down On The Farm

Yuck! they have those cat things- I guess with all the other animal noises it blends. You would have to have a pretty strong sound machine to sleep thru the night near this barn.

he must think the camera is food because he was very excited and walked right up to me

truly a face NOT EVEN a mother could love

Three year old gives birth to 12 healthy babies....

.....maybe I should be a newpaper lady. I got your attention !

Bran new babies so cute

This pig R-E-A-L-L-Y wanted us to pet him, I was scared he might bite me. Which ,ok! ( duh pigs don't eat people ) but at the time when this 700 pound thing was coming at me, I am not willing to find out. My daughter didn't appear to be helping save her dear mother's life.

I found two very nice ladies that are heavier than me. I believe I will stand here all day.

I can't believe I had wallpaper in my home in 2007

I like the plain color so much better. I can't believe we had WALL-PAPER still but at least it's fixed now.

I can't find the before pictures of the wall paper - my computer is totally MALE it hides things from me and takes a really long time to do what I want.

I think I hate my cat

So my cat, Phoebe has been keeping me up at night. This all started several weeks ago, he just doesn't sleep through the night anymore.He makes a horrible sound right outside my bedroom window ( not the I'm in heat noise- just a loud I am here deal with me noise) so I let him in which seriously takes a full 10 minutes to decide if he would like to grace me with his presents. Then S-L-O-W-L-Y gluides through the door like he is on the red carpet, careful to hold his nose high in the air, he is a confident little brat. All this to shortly there after change his mind and make a lot of noise to go back out again.
I was wasting time on the internet since the cat had woke me again when I found this article..... seriously anyone who has this much time on their hands WOW!
I didn't do this much prep getting my newborn HUMAN babies to sleep thru the night.
Well good night! I got ear plugs :) I know I am the worse pet owner ever but I have had this cat for years and now he can't sleep! Maybe the author of this book would like a new pet.


You can use this knowledge to help your kitty get on a nighttime schedule that's more compatible with yours. Here's how:
THE HUNT. Right before you're ready for bed, conduct an interactive play session, using a fishing pole-type toy. You can do other play sessions throughout the day and evening, but it's this pre-bedtime session that's crucial for resetting kitty's internal clock.
Next comes THE FEAST. Reward the Mighty Hunter with food or a treat. If you schedule-feed, divide up his daily portion and offer a meal after playtime. If you free-feed, take up the food earlier in the evening. After playtime, make a big production over placing the food back down.
GROOMING. Your cat will take care of this.
BEDTIME. If you've led a satisfying play session and offered a food reward, kitty will probably be ready to sleep.
Note: If your cat remains active at night, place a few treat balls or other activity toys out for him to play with while everyone sleeps.

Pumpkin Patch

He said he was too old and wanted to skip the pumpkin patch this year but I saw a smile

The little farm was more fun than the pumpkins. My kids even asked if we could buy a goat, thankfully the city has zoneing laws and would greatly frown upon me having a goat.

My little pumpkins, clearly the most adorable kids here.

Disneyland with Grandma and Papa

Papa Tony had a Birthday

This was the cutiest Tink hat but One Size fits All never fits me

Yes this is Bryan at Disneyland - don't blink you may never see it again. He hates Disneyland and jsut since he was in such a great mood already he ran into some students from his class (while the rest of us were on a ride) and he was holding my purse for me. I really don't think they notice they were trying to get over Mr. Pacheco in shorts and a t-shirt " Mr. Pacheco always wears a tie

I am the queen of fuzzy pictures, I just though I should share with the world my vision without contacts.

Obviously I didn't take this picture maybe my camera needs contacts!

It's King John the king of England from Robin Hood

Is it just me or is Daniel the tallest of us all?
