THE BIG 1- 5!!

My birthday was last Saturday! It was a GREAT day! Shae and Emmie kidnapped me and took me to their house for breakfast!!! Shae made me this cute "Birthday Board!" It has been SO MUCH FUN to have them living here in b-Town!









After breakfast, Jon was so nice to watch Emmie, while Shae and I went shopping!!!













Shae and me wearing our new clothes! I got that skirt and Shae got that dress! :) Thanks so much for spending the day with me Shae!!! That night we had a fun b-day party with the fam at the Rec. Center and we played some hilarious games after, and I got my NEW CAMERA!!!! I am so excited! Last night I also had a fun friends party at classic skating!!! It was a great b-day, Thanks everyone for the gifts and cards, Shem and Marissa i loved the cute cards...Diana, nice sticker:)!! haha it made me laugh! I also got my learner's permit!! Watch out!! :)

The Best Gift

Emmie gave me the best present for my birthday, SHE SAID MY NAME FOR THE 1ST TIME!!! :) It makes me so happy! Thanks Emmie, for really making my BIRTHDAY the BEST!!!
She doesn't say my name too much in these videos, but it was the best i could do!!

Emmie, Pound It!!

A few Sundays ago, I taught Emmie, how to "pound it!" It was really cute! She thought she was pretty cool, and she is! I think she was also confused why we were making it such a big deal!:) She is such a sweetheart!

Emmie Joins The Necklace Fun

Charley had a hard time sharing the necklaces with Emmie, but Emmie loved it and now Charley isn't the only one who loves all my necklaces and bracelets:).

Emmie and The heavy-headed doll

Emmie was being so cute last sunday and this little chair cracked me up! She thought it was pretty strange too!!

















What a cutie!!


















This picture is hilarious!! 1: because Emmie is so funny with feet and she is laughing not crying! and 2: Look at Jon in the background with the gun! He had a little too much fun that night! Check out the next picture!!








Jon and Parker were pretty into this doll that has a heavy head so she can do flips and stuff! Jon didn't know i took this picture but it made me laugh how he was playing with it and the smirk on his face! :) Him and Parker even had it do somersaults down the stairs!!! It was actually way funny!

CHEERLEADER!!!

Haha! Here are some ridiculous pictures of me in a cheerleader outfit. About two weeks ago we had the officer, cheerleader switch! We had to cheer during the game and do a 1/2 time show! It was fun! SO this picture is funny as you can tell the timing was hard...specially with my camera being a little slow! :) Just a b-day hint for mom!!! :)












Oh Boy! Can you see me as a Cheerleader? haha

Funny Charley

Charley and I were having fun laughing and pulling faces in the mirror last Monday. She can do this cool thing where she twists her tongue around! I definitely can't do it!!! Its funny because it is so natural for her, so when i ask her to do it, she tries too hard and it doesn't work but then she just all of the sudden she does it! I don't know how well you can see it in the videos, but she sure is a cutie! She was being so fun and happy that day.

Chinese Umbrellas

Emmie and Charley both love my Chinese umbrellas. They both try to spin them like I do. This is a cute picture of Emmie, I was in the picture if you were wondering why Emmie suddenly has HUGE hands, but i looked like I was dozing asleep so i cropped myself out. I think this is such a funny picture of Emmie and her new bangs :)!











The purple one is one that Shae got me in China, and the yellow one is a new one that Mom, Parker, and Scot brought back from China Town.










Here is a better shot of the umbrellas, but not us! For some reason i was biting my lower lip, so I look like a rabbit! Emmie is doing a little model face! haha

Pianist Charley

Last Monday Charley was getting in to playing the piano. She would flip through the books and play a song and then ask if we wanted another. She kept singing "Once There Was a Snowman," but the funny thing is, is that she doesn't say "snowman," and we aren't sure what she says. Also in the song instead of singing "small, small, small," she repeats "tall, tall, tall" Watch the video it's SO CUTE!!!

Necklaces

Charley and I always have a lot of fun together! She is my buddy!!! I love her so much!











We LOVE to play necklaces. She puts on all the bracelets and then I help her put on all my necklaces. She loves it so much! She is so cute and she knows all of them and which ones are new and she comments on how pretty each of them are! :)














THERE ARE SO MANY!!



















Then of course she has to put them on me!!! haha

Slacker-Roni

Haha, Slacker-Roni (like Macaroni), that is what Marissa was in to calling people and that is what i have been, relating to my blogging! Time flies when you are having fun in school!!! haha yeah right! Anyway, one of my New Year's Goals is to keep up on my blogging! We will see how that goes! I had such a great Christmas and you all added to it! I love spending time with all of you! One night after Christmas when i was praying i though how the best gift i got for Christmas was all the time i got to spend with my family! I had so much fun with the Texans too! I love them so much! They are all growing so big, but they are still my best buds! i also love spending time with spen and Diana, playing games and talking! I love you all!

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!!!
