Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas! On Christmas eve we went to my Aunt's house. We celebrated with our family and friends and ate some delicious food. Emily and Brandon are blessed, so many people love them and bought them so many presents. We are so thankful for everything that we have! On Christmas morning Emily and Brandon came down stairs to see all the great presents that Santa left for them. Emily said that Mickey the Elf must of told Santa how good they had been. Brandon enjoyed opening all of his presents since last year he was an ity bitty baby. I can't believe he is already 1! After opening all of the presents we went to James' parents house for breakfast. I couldn't not believe how much they bought for the kids. Emily and Brandon loved being with their cousins! For Christmas dinner my parents and Uncle come over and brought dinner. Thank goodness for Mom's! Emily and Brandon had more gifts to open. We had the best Christmas! I love my life!

Emily's Christmas program

My baby girl is growing up way tooooo fast. I blinked and she was 1 blinked again then she was 3 and once again blinked a now she is 4 1/2 and in preschool, having a christmas show! Emily was so excited for her show, she couldn't wait for all of us to see her perform. The night before, she woke up complaining that her ear hurt. As soon as the Dr. opened in the morning, I called and got an appointment. Yup she had and ear infection. She still wanted to perform in her show. Emily said that the only time her ear didn't hurt was when she was singing.( so darn cute) We went and she did great!She said she was the star of the show! Which is even cuter because all the kids were on the stage at the sametime singing the same songs. Of course I told her, "yes baby you were the star of the show" I love this girl soooooooooo much!
James missed her show he was in Santa Rosa for training, he was so upset! We missed him too!

Brandon"s Party!

Brandon had a great birthday party, he is so loved! Lots of people came to celebrate our boys 1st birthday. He was having so much fun playing in the bounce house. Everyone seemed to have a great time. I think this was the coldest day of the year. We were freezing, but the kids did not seem to care! I love watching the kids play. My favorite part of the day was watching Brandon eat his birthday cupcake. Super cute!

Brandon's 1st. Birthday

We took Brandon to disneyland on his 1st Birthday! We had lots of fun.

It has been forever since I have updated my blog. My family has been sick for about a month. From colds to coughs to sore throats, ear infections to the FLU! We have had it all! Thanks goodness we are all back to ourselves once again. Just in time for Christmas and Brandon's 1st Birthday. I can't believe he is going to be 1. Time flew by this year. We have loved and enjoyed every minute. As I was getting ready today so that we could get our Christmas pictures taken at the picture people. Brandon loves to take all of the stuff out from under the bathroom sink, which I don't mind since it keeps him happy! So anyway I looked down and didn't see him so I walked in front of the sink and this is what I saw!







Emily thought it was so funny she wanted to go into, so of course I had to take a picture.

Bike Ride!

James took Emily and Brandon for a bike ride. The weather was perfect and the kids loved it so much! Brandon was so relaxed he feel asleep. I need a bike so we can all go together. It would be fun for all of us to go bike riding while we are camping

Candy Swiper!!!

Brandon found his sisters Halloween candy!

Halloween

Our Family loves Halloween, so we invited our friends and family to come over to eat and take the kids Trick or Treating. Emily loved going to all the houses to get lots of candy! Brandon loved having everyone at our house. He let everyone carry him. The only thing that we didn't plan on was James had to go to work and wasn't able to be home for the Halloween Fun. Which we understand he works hard so I can stay home with my kids which is so important to us. The kids have a wonderful dad who will do anything for them. He is also a wonderful husband who does so much for me and our kids. I know he was sad that he wasn't here with us, without him none of this would have been possible. Thank goodness that Casey came over to help me with the kids while I got the house ready. Also I am so grateful for my mom once she got here she decorated the tables and got things ready so when I got home from picking up the food everything was done. Everyone seemed to have a great time, once again I wish I took more pictures. Emily loved passing out candy to all the kids.

Mickey's Halloween Treat!

On wed. we went to Disney's Cali. Adventure for there annual Halloween celebration. We have been going since they started. We love everything Disney. This year we were so excited to be able to go with Melissa, Eric, Evan and Macy. We have a hard time being able to do stuff together with our husbands. They never seem to have the same days off. We had a wonderful time! Emily has so much fun dancing, she even got to dance with Goofy! Brandon had fun looking at all the decoration. Emily and Evan had so much fun together. Macy and Brandon were perfect Babies. We are so lucky to have such great Friends.I wished we would have taking a group picture.

Pumpkin Patch

We went to Cal Poly's pumpkin patch. We had tons of fun! The Kids picked out some great pumpkins. My Dad met us there to see the kids at there first pumpkin patch of the season. I was so surprised that they have this pumpkin patch, going up in Diamond Bar you would have figured that I knew about it. But my friends planned this a family play date. I love doing new and fun stuff with the kids.

My Gym

I take Emily and Brandon to My Gym, which they both love. I have tons of fun watching them play. On the friday's that James is off he likes to take Brandon, which he is the only Dad in the class. My kids are so lucky they have the World's Greatest DAD! The whole family went to Brandon's class and they let Emily go on the floor and play with him so I could take some pictures. Brandon is such a happy smiley baby. He is the sweetest little boy!
