30th Birthday

30 years.... I have had the hardest time with this birthday. I can't believe I am soooo old. Life goes by so fast and time slips right by. Just yesterday I was a careless teenager living life to the fullest and now I am just trying to hold onto time. My parents are so sweet, they made my day so memerable. We went to dinner and then to the Desert Star Playhouse. I had a blast and I am so thankful for my parents and all they do. My Grandpa's birthday is the day after mine so I get to share so many memories and birthdays with my sweet Grandpa. Thanks to Eric I have a new laptop and can enjoy technology right in bed, yipee. Thank you to all my friends for making it a great and tolerable 30th birthday. Thanks to my little Neicell for putting my birthday into perspective. She told me, at least you aren't as old as Dr. Wilcox, haahaa. Very true, sorry friend, but true.

Gingerbread Houses

Hmmm NOT QUITE SURE WHAT TO THINK?!

My dear little ones stole my camera and this is what I found on it.

Yep quite disturbing. They had no explanation but laughs and giggles. I am not sure what to say or do. I had to laugh, and in fact, I laughed so hard I was crying. Their father also didn't know what to say. I am not sure if this is a glimpse into their future as photographers. Let's hope not, and pray they take pictures of better scenaries next time. For Mo Joe's sake, he is fine, he puts his tail between his legs every time Erickell whips the camera out. Poor poor Mo Joe he takes a beatin but still loves us.

Thanksgiving

I am so thankful for my beautiful Erickell who is so talented at the drums

I am so thankful for Neicell thinking she is all that playing the guitar

Who wouldn't love this family to pieces? They are so awesome. Guitar Hero World Tour kicks butt. I voyed I wouldn't have a video game house but hey, it brings the family together, which is what it's all about.

Thanksgiving was at my Mom's this year. My bro and his darling family along with my Uncle Kerry and his kids were there. We missed Corie and her gang, they ditched us for the Cluff's. We had an enjoyable dinner and games after. Thanks Mom for putting on the best dinner ever!

The girls playing pin the tail on Rudolph.

Decorating for Christmas

Neicell's Christmas tree in her room

Erickell's own Christmas Tree in her room

We decided to let the girls have a Christmas tree in their rooms to decorate and put their beautiful school ornaments on. They had a blast and I love it not cluttering up my trees.
