Year Summaries!

Here is our year in summary :)

On the kids birthdays, or around there, I interview them.  

Soccer Finals

Matties soccer team made it regional finals.   

 Mattie didn't really knock this girl over, but it looks cool.

Endeavor Space Shuttle

We had planned a little get away as part of Christmas Break, but it wasn't going to work out.  So we needed something great to with our time!  So we went to The Endeavour!  We headed up to LA and went to the California Science Center and looked around there some.

Fun with building in Earthquake Country

 Some fun tubbing

Watching your body heat

And here is our little visit to see the Shuttle

This is the bottom, you can see the tiles serial numbers

2013 Here We Come!

David (kindly) ask me to be a better blogger this year.  So in an attempt to give him that, here is my first post of the year.  I am setting a goal for myself to blog here weekly.  I could also be a better blogger on my photo blog (www.kristiesfotos.blogspot.com)

I realize that I haven't been a great blogger, but instead of trying to repost all that we did, I am just going to start now!

We really kicked Christmas into gear with the Fire Station Christmas Party with Kelly and Kendra

 Khloe, Johnny, and Jared

 Kelly's Annual Santa Picture

 Little Baby Shirley!!

 We had a great Christmas!  Christmas morning is the best morning of the year!!!

 Santa was pretty tough on Jake, hiding his stocking...

 This is when I went into their room and told them they need to wait another hour.

 Then the chaos began.

 Whats that, Santa left all your gifts in those super cute bags??!?!?!  How cute is that :)

 I'm not sure what that is but he was thrilled.

 She could not believe she got a nook

 Maybe I bought myself a snow cone maker, maybe I felt a little bad about buying myself a snow cone maker, maybe I told the kids it was for them :)

 Here is where it gets good.  What they are opening is a iPad box from Grandma Audrey

 but wait, there is not an iPad, just their old ipod :(

 Wait, there is a message to call Grandma Audrey.

 She sent them on a hot/cold mission to find the iPad

 it was in the hall closet

 Merry Christmas to you and a Happy New Year.

And P.S. Dave, I hope you are happy :)
