Go T-Bones!

Chads office got everyone tickets to a baseball game on Friday night. We had fun and the kids got to eat tons of sugar. Chad, Mikinzie, Chase, Breslynn and Daxon headed down and where able to meet Sizzle "the tow(cow) as Breslynn calls him. There are no pictures of this because I was watching Jaidon play ball and his team won 25-11. Way to go boys! Jaidon and I then left headed down after his game and made it there about the 3rd inning, so we still got to watch a lot of ball.

Alot of fun!

This week was busy! We had a lot going on, ok I was able to do a lot of fun things:) We started the week off by heading to the orthodontist for Miki. She no longer has a mouth full of plastic!! She is happy about the new appliance because there is more room in her mouth and we don't get after her to close her mouth all the time now when she eats. Miki is also excited that she can talk normal too! (I snapped this pic real quick....man she is beautiful!!!!)

Miki also had auditions for the dance team at her studio on Tuesday. We are crossing our fingers and hoping that she makes it again. It has been said that they are taking fewer this year and changing things up a little. She feels really good about her audition so no matter what we know she did her best!
Wednesday night Chad and I got a REAL date night! We didn't even go to the movies. Crazy huh! Our friend had a birthday and she likes to go to World's of Fun in Kansas City. We had so much fun riding all the rides and could not of asked for better weather. Some how we ended up doing a ride called Rip Cord. They take you up 180 feet and let you free fall. I have no idea why I didn't stop and think for 2 seconds and realize that I would be CRAZY to do this. I lived. I had fun. Don't need to do it again, for awhile:)

Thursday night I got to go down to Star Light Theatre and see 9 to 5. Chad gave me season tickets for the Broadway plays. I must say I am rather enjoying them. It was a fun play, I had good company, and I am looking forward to going again in 2 weeks for Guys and Dolls. I think I am hooked! It is nice to know that I have a night out every 2 weeks this summer. They really have good shows this season.
I had to be a mean mom and set down some solid rules with consequences this week. It is not that there hasn't been rules, but something had to change for my sanity. I am a big meany and only give 1 warning before they get to choose a job from the jar. I have got walls, windows, and mirrors washed. The car has been cleaned and the floors swept and mopped to name a few things. I am liking the extra jobs, kids not so much. It seems to really have helped and I am thinking it won't be long before the jobs become fewer and fewer. We haven't made it past the job on the list so something must be working. I am blessed to have good kids that really don't cause to much trouble.

I am so excited!

I just figured out how to upload photos that I take with my phone to my blog! I am so excited:0) I guess it doesn't take much to make me happy.lol So I guess what I am saying is there will be more posts for sure now. Woohoo!

Don't die of shock :)

Yeah!!! I have been trying to sign into our blog for awhile and as you can tell from the lack of posts I have not been able to. For some reason I was able to today.WOOHOO! I must admit I have gotten very lazy and post most of my pic's to face book, I can do that right from my phone. I am going to try, fingers crossed, to post every Sunday what has been going on in our lives. This is my way of trying to keep track of all the memories that otherwise would be forgotten. Come on lets face it I have just about the worst memory in the world. I hope that my kids don't catch on or I am in BIG trouble when they get older! So this will be my way of putting it all down for myself, since my lack of posting I am sure no one checks our blog anymore:)

This past week was a some what quite week for our family. Thank goodness! We finished Mikinzi's dance recital on Sunday and are very proud of what a beautiful dancer she is becoming. You can really tell that see LOVES it. Mom is of course thrilled that see does and totally enjoys the hours she gets to spend watching dance during recital weekend :)

We were able to enjoy Jaidon play 3 games this week. He sure is loving baseball and is doing really well. He is playing first base and sometimes 3rd. Dad made a deal with him that if he gets to third or home off his hit he gets a half gallon of ice cream. Well needless to say we are enjoying some yummy ice cream at our house in a variety of flavors!

The most shocking happening of the week, no of her 11 years on this earth......Mikinzie got her ears pierced!!!!!! Dad once again made a deal, this time it was with Miki. The deal was if she got her ears pierced he would make sure she got the nasal spray for her flu shot. So her willingness to do this shows how BAD she hates, if that word is strong enough,shots. Breslynn got her "ear pretties" a few weeks before because she really wanted them. No tears. She loves them and wanted them really, really bad:)Well seeing little sis was not enough and talking to her numerous friends on many different occasions was not enough proof that it wasn't horribly painful. I had to show her many clips on you tube of little ones getting them pierced. All that and she survived and loves them. Funny thing is that Miki has always played/rubbed ears when she is tired, upset, or bored:) Well now she can't rub her ears so she sits and spins her earrings. She is such a nut!

So that was a quite week. This next week is back to craziness, but I wouldn't have it any other way!
