Snow Days are so pretty!! DEC 14, 2008

I just thought I would post some pics of this Wintery madness we have had in dear Oregon! I love it, the kids love it and hope it stays through Christmas!!

this bird was at Grandma Fulmers house and I though he was so pretty!

Tianna showing us the house (this was the first day of snow, just wait for the pics later of =what it looks like now!)

our dirty little snowman!!! LOL

they were determined to make this guy even if the snow was complete mush and mud!

Snow melting away never thinking it would come back as strong as it is now!!!

Christmas oh Christmas tree....

I had to laugh and share with you the exact personalities of both Tianna & Chase.. We went to look for our annual Christmas tree at a local farm in North Plains, the kids Are sooooooo excited for Christmas and "tree Hunting" so they thought or Tianna thought shall I say. The moment we step our feet on the muddy grounds of the tree farm, Tianna says "mom ewwwwwww gross, I cant walk in this stuff" and then after making it over to the trees themselves, Im looking all around and see no Tianna?? I look up and over to the same spot we started out in and she hasnt moved a muscle! "Tianna come on over and help us find a good tree" ... "mommmmm its poking over there" !! LOL
I had to laugh! what a girl! Chase ofcourse was all game for chainsaws and cutting things down ofcourse and this was the devious face to proove so...

After many tries, he just did not want to stick that tongue back in his mouth! darn him LOL

And my beautiful little girly girl!

I think he may be on to something!

Tianna was getting a bit bored and started singing to herself

All in all it was a gorgeous day and we got our beautiful tree which we will be posting soon!

Awwwwwww The last nice beach weekend of the year!

We had such a nice time at the beach this weekend with Bff's, the Meyers! We stayed at Gretchen's Brother's beach house at Pacific City and it was absolutely gorgeous! We drove on the beach and came up to these beautiful rock formations that we all had to take Family pictures at! I thought I would share of some of our pics this weekend.

Gotta LOVE the kids, they had to make a moment out of this! LOL!

Aww the boys, posing on the rocks like those old 80'3 speedo calendars!! I should have photoshop'd a speedo on both of them! HA!

Casey's truck's first time on the beach! He LOVES his truck =)

OLD school Tail Gate'n

Thank you Gretchen & Arrin for such a fabulous time at the beach!

T's first day of school!

Oh what a day that was, I was an emotional basket case and Tianna looked like a nervous reck and was like "now what do I do" It was so hard for me to just let her be and watch from the sidelines, but she did great and gave me the thumbs up and I left her there to begin a whole new adventure of growing up =(

I think back and wonder where did the time go by, really? It feels like it was yesterday that she was in pullups and dancing to her own little tunes. Casey and I were watching an old family movie of the munchkins and ofcourse we teared up and couldnt believe our eyes. But one thing we can say is how fabulous these two have been and such a joy to have in our lives! Tianna our sunshine and ray of light and Chase our air that we need to breath and force of wonderful nature! I thought I would share some of her first day at school pics with my point and click (she wouldnt let me take my big ole' camera, HA!)

Tianna wanted to take the bus her third day of school and was so excited!

And I also had to add some of Tianna and Mila's last day of swimming lessons catfish 3 class. They did a great job and such a fabulous time. They also got to go down the big water slide at the end of class.

Our baby boy is turning 3!!!!

Once again I had to share a funny little though coming out of Chase's little head... He wakes up this morning and says:

"momma I have talk to you about somethin.."
I said "what is it sweetcheaks"
"Momma, I saw a prince that was dancing and then he took my brain with him"
I said " he took your brain???" Where did he take it"

"He took it to the poopyhead place.. Haaa haaa haaaa"

As he laughs histerically and runs off!

What would I do if my mornings were full of no laughter and joy? my children make me laugh every morning and so happy!

Chase has been on this kick lately, well he says things like "I cant find my legs" or he lost his laugh? We haveto always be creative and come up with with an adventure to find the missing laugh or the missing legs! One time we asked what his laugh looked like to help give us a clue and he said it was green, so daddy brought home a green Monster toy figure from MOnster, inc movie. He says "Noo daddy, thats not my laugh!" so daddy was on a mission for this misterious laugh, and finally one day tickled it out of him and caught it and put it right back in! HA!

Chase is such a joy and always makes us laugh, no matter how bad our day may have been, he tends to just be the best little hugger or slobbery kisser! Here are some pics of him growing up! and stayed tooned for his 3 year pic!
