We did Christmas down in the Valley with my family. This is the 2nd time we have done this with my parents since we have been married. We all had such a fun time. Christmas evening JC and I had to go back home because we both had to work the next day. The kids spent a few days with my parents tho.
What a fun Christmas I love my family, they are the best
Poor Jordyn this was her bedroom this morning when she left for school. She had Cody’s old bed spread and it wasn’t very pretty or nice or girly like my sweet little girl is.
When she got home from school this is what she saw
Ashley flew up from the valley EARLY this morning and we knocked it out while she was at school. She was so happy and surprised!!!
Sadie won the award for Most Improved Student!!!! She is working so hard this year we are so proud!
This year all three of the kids were able to play soccer. They have had such a fun time making new friends and learning to play. Saturday for us is completely crazy. Sadie’s game is at 8:30 then Cody’s at 12 then Jojo’s at 12:45.
Sadie is doing great she is really learning the fundamentals of it all
Cody’s team all just follow the ball and as long as it is in front of them they kick it, no matter where the goal is, or they run around and play tag during the game, they are so fun to watch.
Jojo is the first on to volunteer to sit out but when she plays she is excellent. She has scored a goal every game she as played
So Cody and I have settled into a really good routine here. We take all the kids to school in town then we hit the park. We get there around 8, first we have to feed the duck their breakfast they call to Cody every morning, “ Hey, Cody, we are hungry!” Then we go over to the playground and he plays while I walk/jog (more walking) around the play area. After that we run any errands if we need to in town then we head back home. We play with trains, blocks, legos or Wii. JC comes in for lunch around 11 and we eat. I get cleaned up and he lays down and watches TV. I start dinner and then it is about time to head back into town to pick up kids. There is about a 20 min wait after I pick up the girls and the time I get another boy so we go back to the park and let the kids burn some energy.
I am really loving the time with my boy! It makes me sad to think this is my last year to have him home with me and all to myself.
One more thing, he calls me Dude when we play games. I love it
We are in Payson and loving it. Sadie and JC are in heaven. Sadie gets to wake up every morning and go out and help JC and everyone else here with horses. She washes, doctors and rides and is really loving every minute.
We got some news scary news right after we moved, my mom has been diagnosed with breast cancer. I can’t believe this. Why her? She has had so many trials in her life it is hard for me to understand. But I guess it is not for me to analyze why but if anybody can get through it, it is my mom. She is the strongest woman I know!
We went down for a visit soon after. It is so nice to only be an hour away from my family!!! We went swimming while we were there with Ash and her kids and my nephews Zach and Nick
When we got back home we went to a concert in the park. Sara and Azlyn were here.
