Family Lunch Day at School

Every year, Dalin's school has a family lunch day. We get to have a picnic lunch with everyone out in the grass. Matthew and Micah love to go see Dalin at school and Dalin loves to show off his brothers. It is always a fun afternoon!!

After lunch, we played with Dalin and his friends for a little bit on the playground. The twins loved dancing and running around with all of the boys. They laughed and smiled the entire time they played and Dalin had lots of fun with his little brothers. That's always so fun to see!

New Moon!

It finally came out and we were some of the first people to see it, well, I was. Bryan agreed to stay home and watch the kids so that I could see New Moon at the opening showing. (I've never done that before.) Friends in the neighborhood rented out a theater so we could all go together. After selling out the entire theater in just a few days, Harkins offered to move our time up to 9:00. Woo hoo!! Opening night and still in bed before midnight. You can't beat that!

Breanna, Amy, and I went together.

Krista, Haley, and Tamara came, too. They sat back and laughed at us "old" ladies. They kept saying, "Is this how we are going to be when we are older?" I kept assuring them, "Yes, it is!!"

I even got my picture taken with Jacob. What a hottie!! I'd have to say, I've always liked Jacob. Really!! I mean it. I'm not just saying that because he is totally hunky in New Moon. I swear I liked him before I saw him take his shirt off. You know the scene!!

Happy Birthday, Bryan

Bryan is a very private person when it comes to his birthday. He doesn't want anyone to know about it or celebrate it. This year, however, I was able to convince him to go out to lunch with my parents and go to his mom's house for dinner and cake. It was fun to spend the day with him and of course, the boys loved helping him blow out his candles.

Happy Birthday!!

"I Eat Cake!"

At around 11:00 AM, as I was jumping in the shower, Matthew told me he was hungry and wanted some lunch. Since I was naked, I told him that I'd feed him as soon as I was out of the shower and dressed. He sat on the floor next to Micah in my room to watch TV.

When I was out of the shower and dressed, I realized that Matthew was no longer next to Micah on the floor and realized immediately that he was probably getting his own lunch. I was correct, although I'm not sure you could call it lunch.

I found him sitting on the kitchen floor eating cake. He had pulled the pan off the counter, got a fork, and helped himself. There was no mess and very little cake left in the pan that had been almost completely full.

When I asked what he was doing, he said, "I not hungry. I not need lunch. I eat cake!!!"

So, I guess learned my lesson. When Matthew is hungry for lunch, I better feed him or he'll do it himself, even if it is cake!
