This is my last post for the month of February, so I thought I'd update on a few things we've been doing to keep ourselves occupied during these long winter days!
Saturday February 18th we threw Stephani a baby "Sprinkle" in hopes to help them prepare for their
Little Girl!
I had fun making the "Tickled Pink", "Welcome Baby Girl" banners, cupcakes and cupcake toppers, as well as all the food labels! It was weird, though....a lot of PINK was going on! Ha! Ha! I had trouble picking out outfits for the little one...I wanted them all! I also made her little headbands that matched the outfits I got for her to wear during the Summer! Hopefully they'll fit!
We're excited for them and can't wait to meet her in a couple of weeks!
Some of the girls at the Sprinkle!
Gayle, Me, Dani (Steph's mom) Bryci, Laura, Kaylee, Stephani, Kelsie, Jennifer, and Olivia.
See, I told ya....A LOT of PINK!

That same weekend we had Mitch Slayden stay with us! He's one of our good friends! While he was here we had some more friends over for a WINTER BBQ! It was so much fun! We really LOVE all those guys!
Jen and her boyfriend Matt came over too! Trace was being silly with Jen!
Josh Clark, and Brennen and Kalauni Bradly!
We were all giggling at Aydan-Bug, who was being silly at taking our picture!
Kalauni, Brennen, Mitch, Me, Justin, Chelsea, and Benny!

Monday, (Presidents Day) Justin didn't have school, so we decided to take the boys to STAR WARS in 3D! They LOVED it! Tra kept saying, "I want fly in car!"
It was so amazing! I was pleasantly surprised to see all that they could do to make it in 3D since it was not filmed/made 3D!

This last week we helped my Dad and Jerri move in to their NEW HOUSE! Yes, it is finally finished, with minor "finishing touches!"
The sunset was so pretty the first day they were in their new home.
Got a quick pic of the grand kids out front! They love their house! There is so much space to RUN AROUND!
Look at this handsome lug..........I wish I could kiss him all day every day...........oh wait.............I DO!
I don't have many shots of their entire house but here's their living room fireplace upstairs! Yes, that is a picture of Yankee Stadium!
To celebrate their 1st night/day in their new house we had PIZZA! No chairs or table though....the kiddos didn't mind one bit eating on the floor!
Tommie, Aydan, and Trace reading a book on Gma and Gpa's new couch!
Here's a shot of the kitchen!
We are so happy for them! It's been a really long progress, and I think we're all glad to reap in the benefits FINALLY!
***********************************************
Friday night Justin and I went to the movies AGAIN with some of our friends! We went and saw "The Act of Valor." It was SOOOOO good...as almost every true hero story is! I bawled so much my pants and shirt were soaked! It's about a Special Forces team in the Army. Maybe it hit home to me, because now I truly understand the sacrifices the families of our military people have to go through.
I loved this movie, and all I could think about was, "HOW COME WHITNEY HOUSTON IS ALL OVER THE NEWS?" She was not honorable. She had a wonderful gift, and threw it down the toilet by being weak and dishonorable. She is not a hero. What did she sacrifice? Real heroes should be on the news, and in tabloids. Being honored and remembered. Yes it is sad that she died, but what for? For her own selfish greed and addiction.
Yes it is sad that these WAR HERO'S died, but what for? HONOR, OUR COUNTRY, FOR THEIR TEAM, TO SAVE LIVES OF INNOCENT PEOPLE!
Come on peeps, enough with Whitney....she's a sad excuse for our awful media, and it's intention to make you interested enough to buy into it.
Anywho.....
