Singing Time

Taylor is in choir at school, so we went to her performance on Monday. It was really cute. Emily, Taylor sister was really into it. She watched and copied every move they made. I told Michelle, Taylor's mom, that she probably would be good in a play. Anyways she was the only one that was really paying attention out of the kids. Taylor did a great job and looked really cute. It was a great night out with the whole family! Good job Taylor!

Update on the towing.

Well Jeff took it all the way to Corporate. They decided they would pay half of the towing fees for all three cars. We decided it was better than nothing, so we are happy. We did learn a lesson though, Park at your own RISK!

Come visit, it will only cost you $217.00

Last night we had some family come over for fight night. We were all sitting around waiting for the main fight. Pat went out to get something out of his car and to his surprise his car was gone. Not only his car but my brother Tim and my sister -in-law Rebecca's car as well. Jeff and I were told that you could have guest but they needed to park outside of the gate but not to worry until after 9. Well either the rules changed or I was misinformed because it was only 8:45 and all three cars had been towed. So after a bunch of complaining and scrambling around for money we got all the cars back at 11pm.

FOOD $30 -FIGHT NIGHT $45-CARS $651-FAMILY PRICELESS!

Jeff and I are going to fight it, but of course no one was open at 11:00 last night and they are still not open today. Go figure!

Tide pools

So my sister -in-law, Kristen, is really good at finding things to do for free or cheap. We took the kids to the tide pools at Laguna beach yesterday and the kids had a blast. We ended up seeing a lot of crabs. There were a few other things that I wasn't sure of but Kristen knew what everything was and filled us in. There were a ton of rocks that the kids loved climbing over. Usually I am a freak about the kids climbing on rocks but they were having so much fun that I didn't care. Thank you Aunt Kristen for a fun filled day! (I posted more pictures on My Space).

Brandon not only found shells he found a ramp,
at least thats what he called it and a long pipe
that he wanted to bring home.

A big ugly crab

Cloud

So today I had to take all of the children to get their blood drawn. Of course I went in two different sessions. Autumn and Summer went this morning and Taylor, Erik and Brandon went this afternoon. Talk about torture. It involved a lot of kicking and screaming. It makes me sad to see them go through this but I know it is for their own good. Anyways earlier today Summer wanted me to take her bandage off. When I went to take off Autumns she started screaming at me "Don't take my cloud off!" I thought that was the cutest thing. But the cuteness is wearing off because she keeps crying about taking it off but won't let anyone get near her. To add to all of this, this evening she was running outside and ended up getting scraped up pretty good. When it was time to get in the shower, between her cloud on one side and her scrapes on the other I manged to get her hair washed but she was very upset. I hope she feels better tomorrow because she has been sick for a week now and she is very needy! Oh yea and these pictures I took were another challenge. She is very dramatic.
