It's All About The Dodgers!!!

Last Tuesday, September 15, I picked Fox up from school and rushed him to the airport so that he could take off on a special trip with his dad to see the Dodgers in LA. He was so excited he could hardly get to sleep at the hotel. Remember it is a 3 hour time difference, so about 11:30pm GA time he finally went to sleep.

The next day they were off to see the big game.

Saw this cool Dodger firetruck and had to have a picture...

Or two.

Must have gotten there so early they were the only ones there?!

Got spoiled rotten...

And loved every minute of it.

And just had a great time with his dad.

Even though it was a little hot.

Then they rushed back to the airport from the game and got home at 1:30am. Just in time to sleep for a few hours and then go to school that morning.

Jayde's haircut

This morning I decided to give Jayde her 2nd haircut. As much as I love her hair growing long, I decided a haircut would do her hair some good. Here she is just before.

Then I cut 4 1/2 inches off.

Because we were focused on her hair, we decided to fix it up and curl it.

Here is a side view.And just because she is so cute, I had to put these last 2 pictures on here.

Jayde

I know, I am on a blogging role today, but Jayde cracks me up lately. She came down stairs from playing in her room looking like this and very seriously told me she was ready to go to work. When I asked her if I could get a picture of her she got on the couch to pose for me.

Yesterday she was playing with all these stuffed animals. I wasn't paying attention to her until I finally realized she was taking all of them to the potty, one at a time and over and over again, and wiping their behinds with toilet paper and flushing the toilet after each one.

It is a good thing we are not on restricted water usage anymore, and I was able to salvage a little bit of toilet paper that was left in the bathroom.

Family Night...not always easy...

Two Mondays ago we went on a golf cart ride to get a treat for family night. We hadn't been on the golf cart for awhile, so we thought that would be fun. Well, we thought wrong. The kids decided to be a little too difficult, so when it came time to getting their treats, they didn't get them. Here is a little glimps of how the ride home went. I can't get the sound to work, so sorry if you don't have sound (probably better without anyways).

Apparently Fox was going to die if he didn't get his treat, so he said. He also said he wasn't going to be able to stop bleeding if he didn't get it (where is the blood?) And he said he was too tired to go into the house unless he got his treat. He must have been thinking that something has got to work. Jayde also had a rough ride home. Normally I wouldn't post this, but I thought it was so funny I just had to. It is better to laugh than to get mad this time right?

Highlights from Utah trip

We went out to Utah a few weeks ago and had a lot of fun. Here are just a few highlights of the trip.
