ZonKed Out!

Here are pictures of the Grillies staying up late, as Jade told me on the phone and I quote "dream sweet mom" "you too sweet heart" "don't let the bed bugs bite mom" "okay honey I won't don't you let them bite either" I won't because I'm staying up late watching movies...love you bye."

Some late night as they are all Zonked out every where....the fun of a sleep over.

thinking way back!

I remember being so young and having sleepovers at my Aunt Debbie's and Aunt Kimmy's house almost every weekend. It was a great escape from my house. All the crazy things we use to do as a kids, I remember we would set up the tents out in the back yard, one time got a little scary because there was some weirdo yelling outside Janda's neighbors house and her neighbors dogs (bow and arrow) were barking all crazy. We all got scared (mostly me I'm sure) and we went into the house. There were other times that Janda would read

Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark

(how I loved that book) there was one story that she would read me all the time called "The Toe" I'm not sure why but I loved it. And now as we grow up and no longer have sleep overs my daughter Jade goes to Janda's house and Jade loves it as much as I did. Here are some cute pictures that Janda took at her house and sent me this evening. They are dancing around listening to all sorts of music trying make Janda Nucking Futs.

Here are pictures of Jades first day back to school. I missed it because I had to work....but my sweet husband took the day off and took some cute pictures (please don't mind the messy house), she had a really good day back to school. Jesse said it is a mad house the first day back and that the line to the office was so long it went out the front door...don't people pay attention to back to school night HELLO, I would never go there the first day back and try and enroll my kids what a freaking mess, I'm glad I'm not a school office lady, I wouldn't have the patients for it. I remember my first time in the first grade...it was a lot of fun, so much I took the first grade twice (I was quite the little talker in school). Jade has been coming home with a ton of school work that she doesn't finish in class,and that makes a lot of homework at night. I had a little talk with her teacher and she says she along with the rest of class is talking a lot and not following along with direction, yes I know it is the first week of school and she is just getting back from summer vacation with out any structure so I hope the next few weeks go by smoother or my daughter will find out that the kitchen table is not a comfortable seat. All in all I'm glade that she is back to school and is enjoying it.

So once again I'm teaching my self how to scrap book. I think I want to take that class but it needs to be down here somewhere close to home. This is of Jade and Kambrin at grandma's pool before we were getting in to swim.

This was Kambrin's birthday party and she was not a happy 1 year old, bad planning on my part what kind of mom schedules a birthday party during her nap time....geee. We still had a lot of fun and all the kids got to swim. Janda brought her famous home made Cake Batter Ice Cream I just love the stuff. I made 3 dozen cupcakes that morning, and for once I felt like super mom. I'm glad that I'm done with party's the rest of the year though. Thanks to everyone who brought something or helped out you saved my sanity.

I'm sneaky sneaky......ha ha.

Kambrin has been walking for about a month now and during this month she has gotten very sneaky, I was doing my hair the other day and she was hanging out in the front room and well when she went walking by a was quite surprised to see her little face walking by. Later that day we were hanging out in there together and she showed me how she does it.

Ok here is my first attempt at digital scapbooking and I have a lot to learn I had to use two different programs to crop the pictures I was trying to add.....but my crash course from Janda worked I will just need a better lesson when we both have time. Thanks to Kacy for the size advice too.

Kambrin's first time in the pool, it was so much fun that day. She reallt didn't like all the kids in the pool because they splash her, but she has to get use it if we are having her a pool party.

big BLUES!

Need I really say more?

A sisters bond is truly a magical thing.
