Happy Birthday Emmie!

Today is sweet little Emmie Rae Check's birthday. She is 6 years old and so so sweet. She has had a hard time in life with her disability but is an inspiration to all of us. She smiles alot and loves TV. While we were down for Christmas in Gilbert, Brian's mom Debbie had made a video of the year with lots of pictures and music of all the things that happened that year and Emmie loved watching it over and over. She is a joy...a wonderful part of a loving family. Happy Birthday sweet angel.

Trenton's B-day and Another SNOW day.

Today is Trenton's birthday and we have lots of snow...He is pretty glad he gets to stay home and play with all his new presents he got on Sat. at Peter Pipers Pizza, they remodeled the one here in Flagstaff so it wasn't that bad and worth every penny to not have a bunch of kids here at my house. We got so much snow here and so this morning it was slow going as we went to my Ultra sound appointment. It took us 4o min to get into town and people were stuck all over the place, although we couldn't stop to help them cause we had to go find out if we're having a boy or girl and when I was getting it done I was soooo anxious to find out and she was measuring everything..the head, the femur, pointing out the blader, heart and stomach but when she got between those legs and said oh those are the lips..I was like WHat??? and she said, "it looks like a girl" I started to cry and couldn't stop my belly from shaking all over the place. So , Brian was right and I was wrong once again! But we are so excited and now I will stop thinking of boy names and start thinking of girls...any suggestions?

Check out my Slide Show!

Melissa had a couple friends over from her cheer squad and of course all they do is cheer and stunt..It's her LIFE right now. She was teaching the boys too, in between them throwing a ball around, as you can see a flying ball in the picture. We still have lots of snow and went out last night to see I AM LEGEND, weird and SCARY!

More snow pics

After getting him all dressed which took quite a long time, Zane was ready to join his siblings who were somewhere around the corner but I wasn't about to go out barefoot. Did I tell you how much I hate the snow?

2 snow days in a ROW!!

Well, winter is definitely here. We had a snow day yesterday and school was cancelled. Today we woke up to more SNOW and it was cancelled again! I love it because then I have little helpers that can do dishes and laundry all day! ha ha and also people to keep Zane busy! I do love looking at the snow I just don't like going out in it. Brian took yesterday off but went in today. He said it was bad even with his 4 wheel drive. I think I'll just make me a cup of hot cocoa and sit by the tree while watching the snow come down....

TREE decorating

We finally got our tree decorated. It sat there for a few days with only lights on it as we were just too busy, then on Saturday it was snowing and raining so, we had no other option, should I say "I" since I am the one who decorated it with the help of some little hands that kept taking them off as I was putting them on! Then they were using them as action figures breaking legs off one and I had to get the super glue out..so fun.
