Joey and her girlfriends went to Boingas to celebrate. She said no boys allowed but wanted Daddy. Brody came later and she was fine with that. Joey loves kindergarten and all her friends she plays with. There all really sweet kids and even though Kambers almost a teenager, Joey loves being with her. We had to make sure she could come before we invited anyone else:)

Joeys 6 and Brodys 4!!

Joey turned 6 and Brody turned 4. My babies are growing up!!! We went to chuckEcheese and they had a blast. I've always combined their bdays because it is way easier. Joey also gets to have a school friend one. The cake was from savemart and they did such a great job. Brody has been the chicken of the family for some time and to my surprise he was not scared of chuckie at all. They had a little dance and they got to go into the ticket booth and get the grand prize, Good job daddy!!

3 Kids and 3 puppies!!!

We got the cutest puppies!!! They are growing up so fast and the kids love them. We first got 2 German Shepard's after our 2 dogs past away:( We were so sad about Chevy and Jersey. God blessed us with them in our lives. We had Chevy for about 9 years and Jersey for only a year but she was such a sweet and loyal dog, and loved to fetch!!! I looked online for a dog and came across a ad for German Shepard's. Called and they lived in waukena...so we got 2. The boys shared and Joey had her own. Well Joseph then got a border collie so each kid has one.

Max has Rookie-after football rookies(dark)

Joey has Samson-because she liked the name(light)

Brody has Bobby- after his stuffed animal, Bobby(Border Collie)

Christmas tree 2012

I love getting a fresh cut Christmas tree every year. We usually go to Savemart and look around for a few minutes and then go home and cut it open!!!! The kids love cutting it and watch it grow before their eyes.  Hoping there are not to many holes. So far this has worked for us and the tree is always beautiful.
