Megan

I totally forgot to post pictures of Megan in my last post, so here's a collection! (Oops! I guess it's 4th child syndrome...)

I'M BAAAA-AAAACKKKK!

Okay, so I just helped my mom set up her new blog and I realized how much I've missed posting...

Not a whole lot has happened recently, but since my last post, we've moved, Katie, Brandon & Hayley have all started new schools (well, 6 months ago) and softball has started up again. But really, the day to day is all the same.

I have lots of new pictures to post, but not all at once. ;)

Here are the kids' school pictures

I just got back Brandon and Hayley's spring pictures

Katie is back in softball--AND LOVIN' IT! She's now catching for her team, Lucky Charms.

That's all for now, but I'm really going to try and be better about posting. Peace out!

Working Woman!

Just a quick update...I am now a working woman! I (very luckily) landed a job with a real estate company as a receptionist. Hopefully, in about a month or so, I will be promoted to my boss' assistant. Her current assistant is pregnant, so I am gunning for her spot!
I love my job! I get to wear work clothes every day! LOL! I am learning quickly (at least I think so). Best of all, I am making money! I got my first check today. It wasn't much, because I only worked 2 days (plus my 2 days of holiday pay for Thanksgiving). The perks rock! I only have to work half day on Christmas Eve and I get the day after Christmas off. Woo-hoo! Four and a half day weekend!!!
So, that's what's new with me. Next week is Vegas, John Rich and Gretchen Wilson, so I'll have another update then (probably).

Busy, busy, busy!!

Oh, boy! So school has started amd Hayley joined Katie and Brandon as a Glenmeade Elementary student! All of my kids are very happy with their teachers. Hayley informed me that her teacher calls her "her little darling". Nice way of feeding her already VERY inflated ego, Mrs. Morse!

Here are some pictures from their second day, just cuz they looked so cute again!

Yesterday, my mom and I went to the Sugarland concert at the L.A. County Fair. We had such a wonderful time! They were fantastic!!

And the other big thing we have going on is winterball! Oh, boy, this is going to be so much fun!!! :) I missed Katie's game yesterday because of the concert, so I don't have any pictures. But I'll get a bunch on Saturday. In the meantime, Here's a collection of Hayley's first game--EVER!!

Pictures

Here are those pictures I promised. These are from Shane's company picnic at Knott's Berry Farm. Enjoy!

It was really hot and sunny. Poor Hayley!

Shane's idea of a dream date--2 silent women

My idea of a dream date--1 silent Shane

There is actually a very funny story behind this picture. We wanted to take the kids to see the "heartbeat" grave, which they thought was very cool. There was another grave covered in rocks that had a fence of sorts around it. I just thought that people had been messing with it, so we didn't pay too much attention. Right next to the grave was this casket. I told Shane to get in so I could take his picture. Hayley was not happy with her daddy pretending to be dead. She kept yelling at him to get out. I asked the other kids to get in so I could take their pictures. I couldn't pay them enough. So I leaned back against Shane in the casket and all of a sudden we heard a rumblingand felt the ground shaking. It got louder and stronger and we realized it was coming from the grave right next to us. Hayley just stood there screaming. It was total chaos. We finally got her out of the cemetary and she calmed down. I guess the recent earthquake that was literally right below us shook her up more than she let on. Shane and I were laughing so hard we almost peed our pants!

Our very own version of "Where's Waldo"--Where's Megan?

They look like they may actually like each other...
