OUR NEW HOME

This is for our family so they can see were we live now.

The front of our homeOur back yardThe front room-yep really empty. I don't have a couch again. Hopefully we will be able to get it when we come up in August Our room

The kitchen- I like it I spend like my whole day in there
The girls room- I would have taken a better pic but with 3 girls sharing a room there is always something on the floor, or a big mess going on.

Noah's room/ Play room.

His room is so big that it is also the play room.

I just love the 70's paneling don't you.-- uuuugggg!!!!

Family room

The Office

with more and worse 70's paneling puuuuke!!!

I was able to take these pics for one split second when the house wasn't full of kids.

Hope you can visit soon.

9 mounths old!!

Time is just flying by with this little girl. I can't keep up. She is doing so much now, and loves to play and be silly with the kids. She can stand without holding on to anything for quit I long time. She has taken a step and falls down. Is getting a mouth full of teeth. Crazy! I wish it would just slow down and she would stay my little baby forever.

Noah put balloons down her shirt. It was pretty funny. She even thought so.

When we were moving we stayed in a hotel for a night. I put her down to play. I looked down a few seconds latter and couldn't see her. She found herself a little fort and was proud too.


She loves to play with Allie

Getting into things

Showing all her teeth

This is the kids playing with her and thinking it is so funny. She doesn't mind. I do feel a little sorry for her. This is a glimpse of the rest of her life, being the youngest and all.

Happy Birthday ALLIE!!!!!!!

We had Allie's Birthday the other day. Since we just moved here I didn't want or could I afford anything big so I suggested she could have a sleep over with 2 of her old friends. Only one of them was able to come. But Allie was still happy and included Katie in all the fun.

Her friend Paige came over and we had Allie's favorite food- Chinese-. Then from there I let Allie call the shots. They went outside and played on this big hill of dirt from the construction they are doing on the Elementary school that is behind us. Then jumped on the tramp. While she was doing that we decided it was a good time to go spray her down with silly string. (Our family tradition). When they came in Allie opened her presents. Then we did Birthday cake and ice cream. Then they wanted to play some game on the Wii. Then it was down to some girls stuff they spent a long time putting fake nails on that Katie got Allie for her birthday. They had pretty stickers and all. Then we got there bed ready and they watched High school musical.

The next day they woke up watched High School Musical 2. I made Allie's favorite breakfast-crapes-. Then we went to the mall and window shopped, tried on silly outfits, and had ice cream. Then we came home and watched High School Musical 3. She had a great girly birthday and I think she loved it.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY BIG 9 YEAR OLD!!!!!!

Allie's friend Paige

Thank you Paige for celebrating Allie's special day with us.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Happy Birthday- Chris, Calley, Addison, Grandma Cherrington, Andy, Allie, Katie. I hope I didn't forget anyone.

What a crazy month. Not only that we just moved, but it is everyone's birthday and Andy and Suzett's wedding Anniversary.

CRAZY, CRAZY, CRAZY

Chris turned 30, I had to rub it in and call him an old man it was fun. Because I have 4 whole months that I am still in my 20's. hehehehe.

Then we have 2 more. Allie will be 9 and Katie is turning 5.- seriously when did Katie grow up.
I think I missed it.

I signed her up for Kindergarten when I registered the kids at the new school. It makes me sad that she is that old now. She is going to go to school! She is my daytime buddy. She loves to go shopping and help me clean and watch the baby. Next school year will be a breathe taker for me.

Feeling at home!!

As I posted before we moved. We are all moved in, got everything switched to our name, the phone man finally came and now we have phone and Internet, the kids are in school-playing with friends. Now I feel right at home and like we never left.

I feel like I can breathe again. This year has been a huge struggle for us, we learned a lot. Now we can move on and hopefully use what we were taught.

We moved into a house with stairs and the first time Izzie looked at them she was crawling right up them.
What am I going to do with that baby. She just wants to grow up to fast. She is going to be just like Noah and walk by 9 months. She has already taken a step. I might just loose my mind.

We attended church the Sunday after we got here and the minute we opened the door for Allie to go into her class room a little girl frenzy started. Her old friends were so excited to see her, and were even more excited to learn she was here to stay. I apologized to the teacher for the disturbance we made ( I hope they settled down). Then the other kids went to Junior primary, and found some of there old friends. They were so excited.

That night some old friends (The bolles)invited us, and another couple we were good friends with(The Woods) to eat dinner. We had a great time catching up and making new plans for the year.
I am so excited.

Then Allie and Noah started school that next week and the first day after school were off to play with friends.

It's like we never left.

We moved back just in time. Our friend Jenna had her 2nd child last week and we went to the Hospital to meet her. Her name is Taylor and she is so cute. Has tonz of blond, blond hair. Izzie has every right to be jealous.

On Saturday we drove out to see our friends The Woods new house they are building. They have put in so much hard work and it is coming along. It is going to be so awesome. It is in such a beautiful area. We brought out some lunch and our sleds and the kids went sledding down there hill while we visited. It was great. But we were a little sad because we decided to get out of there hair so they could get back to work and never saw there little boy. He was down for a nap while we were there.

Excited to be back.

GOING BACK HOME!!!!!!

yeah! yeah! yeah!

• So we are moving back to Washington next week.
• We were going to wait tell the kids were out of school but Chris has no more work.
• He does have work to go to in Washington so we decided we should just go.
• I wish we could have given more notice for friends and family, schools and ect. It would have just been nice.
• But we got to do what we got to do.
• I honestly am really excited I love it there.

We are moving onto the same street we used to live on too.

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

January FAMILY FUN NIGHT!

Every month we have a family fun night with Chris's family. We rotate through the family who's turn it is to host the event's. January was Jennifer's turn. We had a really yummy dinner. Then we played a game and some Rock band on the wii. The kids had fun playing with each other and hiding in cupboards. Silly kids!!!!

Playing a game (I would tell you what it was called but I have the worst memory, I can't remember what it was called) But it was fun.

Just visiting

Katie and Addie hiding in the cupboards


Playing rockband- woo hoo!!!!
I think Kade is going to start a band when he gets older. Because he really enjoyed trying to sing with Aunt Jen.
