Mocha our little rat

There isn't a photo correction for "yellow eye"

Some would call this abuse, Avery calls it fun!

So I have never been much of a dog person, probably because I am so allergic to animals. But we have our little Mocha yorkie and we love him. He has turned out to be a pretty good puppy, even though Avery is a little rough on him he keeps his cool most of the time. Since he has hair instead of fur I an not bothered by him. Now that I have him I just added a fourth being to follow me around, take care of, and sit on my lap with everyone else. I will be sitting on the couch with everyone plus the dog laying all over me, I look over at Jodie and he is always resting comfortably all by himself oblivious to everything. How can that be, you would at least think his dog would bug him and expect just a little out of him. Nope all me.

Sunday at Sundance

The rain is coming down and Avery is outta here, I think it freaked her out

We went up to Sundance this afternoon to have dinner with my dad and get our season passes. It is so pretty up there and we are so lucky to have it 20 minutes away. It was an awesome dinner and we will be up there soon every weekend skiing. It started to pour down rain when we left, snow will be right around the corner.

First Day of School 2008

Make a Smilebox scrapbook

Snaggle Tooth

Zoey lost another tooth, she is up to 4, all from the bottom. No that space on the top isn't a missing tooth, it is just a big space that has been made for when her snaggle tooth decides to come out.

First Day of School 2008

Cedar Ridge Cougars





Zoey starts first grade and has Mrs. Tanner. Addisyn is starting Kindergarden and has Mrs. Hawkins. I got them a special cupcake for their big day. They had a great day and absolutely love school. Zoey is little miss social and is in her element.

Little Flirt

Well this is the end of our trip and we have to go home. I am so not ready for summer to be over. I was wondering how am I going to keep the girls entertained. It went by so fast I didn't have time to think about it. But it was a great way to relax and wrap up our summer. We ate while we were at The Grove and Avery was flirting like crazy with the waiter, just pulling faces and she thought she was so funny. We made it to Mesquite and Jodie wanted to drive the rest of the way home, that would put us home between 2 or 3 AM way to long in the car. So we got a room at the Virgin River. Thank goodness we only paid $25 because it isn't worth a penny more. Now I am home posting instead of unloading 4 suitcases of laundry. I guess it won't go anywhere. Now only two months until my October Europe trip with my mom, and sister. We are going to Paris, Florence, and Rome. This will be my third time but I am excited because now I am older I think I will appreciate it more. Ciao!

American girl Dolls

Zoey and Addi have been eye balling the American Girl Doll magazine for the past year. So since we were in California we told them if they are good we will go and get them one. Well they definitely weren't good we constantly threatened them that i they didn't quite fighting they weren't getting a dang doll. Well who won. They know they will get what they want in the end. So we drove to LA and went to the Grove and found the famous store. This store is insane, they have a cafe for tea with your doll at $25 a plate and you need reservations, doll hospital, and hair salon at $15 for a style. They are cute but really I think their so sought after because there are only 4 stores in the US. Now what am I going to bribe them with.

Califonia Advetures

Avery would cheer happy, happy, happy yeah!






Avery your not quite tall enough yet maybe , you need your platform shoes


Well I think I am officially Disneyed out. We need to give it a rest for awhile. Between Disney World and Land Zoey has been 8 times, and Avery already 3 times. So we need a new place to hang out. As usual so much fun, and Addi and Zoey went on Tower of Terror again. I have bben on it 1 time and that was my last. I think it is too scary. I can't believe little kids can go on it and not the roller coaster, it's by far scarier.

Avery the adventure baby

I could just eat this baby up, she is so much fun. Her personality is huge and she loves to be funny.

Here's Addi

Our Addi is a little bit shy compared to her older sister. She likes to please and has been easy from day 1.

All Zoey

This girl is such a stinker, but lucky she's so cute and goofy sometimes you just have to laugh

Cali Sunset with my cute girls

I took the girls down for sunset pictures. So many turned out really cute so it is too hard to pick out y favorite. What I realized is that my babies are growing up too fast. Zoey is only six though she acts 16 and to me looks older for her age, Addi is hitting kindergarden and has gotten really tall this summer, and my baby Avery is not so much of a baby anymore. Im trying so hard to cherish every moment and treasure the small things they do.
