Patrick's Senior Prom...

I can't believe that Patrick is going to his senior prom tonight!! It has really hit me this week that Patrick is graduating!! I am really going to miss watching him play football, baseball, and perform in the show choir!!

Patrick went to Prom with his girlfriend, Dani. She is such a sweet girl and sooo pretty. Patrick REALLY likes her...I do too. You can't tell in the pictures but Dani was soo shy when we were taking the pictures...it was really sweet! Enjoy the pics!

Cousins!!

Back in February Andrea gave me a bunch of Andrew's clothes for Michael that Andrew had out grown. One of the shirts she gave me is the one that Michael is wearing in his birthday pics. Andrew saw the picture and rememberred the shirt!!!....so here is a picture of Andrew in his shirt and the picture of Michael wearing Andrew's shirt!! Sooo cute...they even look a little alike sans Michael's chocolate cake!! Andrea....I cannot say THANK YOU enough for all of the clothes you gave me for Michael. They are what he wears everyday!!!!

Michael's 1st Birthday

I am a bad mom...it is over a month ago that Michael turned one (March 7th)and I am just posting the pictures. We went to Chili's for dinner. ALL 9 of us, which doesn't seem to happen much any more. Everyone is soooo busy with their activities. So, it was really fun to be all together! Then for dessert they brought Michael the Chocolate Molten Lava cake....YUM!! He loved it! It was sooo cute to watch him eat that big dessert....with spoon and hands!! Michael is PURE joy for our family. I cannot imagine our family without Michael. He makes all of us soooo happy!! He is truly nothing but a blessing!! Happy Birthday sweet Michael!!

2nd Coming???

Wow...yesterday was an Easter we will never forget! We were out at Mike and Dena's house (Pat's brother) and were having a really nice time! And then the earth started shaking!!! We heard this loud rumbling sound first. I thought -what is that sound??! Well, following the loud rumbling the whole house started shaking! It got stronger and stonger and the rumbling got louder!! In fact it continued to rumble even after the house eventually stopped shaking. My nephew Kelvin was standing by me in the kitchen and the clock on the kitchen wall fell and missed his head by about 3 inches and hit his foot.

It must have lasted for 30-35 seconds. I think it was the longest and hardest earth quake I have ever felt!! It ended up being a 7.2 and centered in Mexicali. Of course my sweet Aubrey who is my BIGGEST worrier was scared all afternoon. She kept asking, "Is the 2nd coming going to happen today??!!" Poor thing...she was pretty freaked out. Even MY heart was beating fast for 10 minutes afterward!! It was a REALLY decent shake!! NOT ready for the 2nd coming yet!! I need a lot more time to work on myself!!! I think I better get more serious about it...a lot of earthquakes and tsunami's lately!! Hhmmmm....

April Fools!!

I had gone to my brother and sister-in-laws blog and they TOTALLY fooled me with the positive pregnancy stick picture!! So, I HAD to do the same thing to my friends and family! I didn't have any comments on my blog but I did fool a few people on Facebook!! Thanks Andrea...that was a good one!!

Seriously??!!?

Curl-ia Julia!!

Okay...so I know I am soooo biased but is Julia just soooo dang cute with her hair curled or what!!?? She got her bangs cut and then we curled her hair. I just love it curled...she liked it curled too!! I need to do it more often!!
