We went to the Celine Dion concert She is so amazing live, her voice is incredible. Andrew was not as excited as I was, but he survived. I loved it she is one of my all time favorites. Come on who hasn't even belted out one of her songs in the car : ) And this is the second time I have seen her in concert, still good! I know its crazy but I love her white dress and even the boots, very french! It was an amazing concert!!
I only have one grandma around my "Nanny" pasted away when I was young, so I have my one grandma left and I love her. She is so sweet and I love seeing her, she is the kind of grandma that always makes you feel better and tells you all the nice things you want to hear, but means it too! She is just great and a wonderful grandma and I love her!
Andrew's parents came out for a visit after Christmas and it was great to spend time with them, especially when they are leaving for their mission soon to Finland. The boys got to to build and bear and pick out toys are target. I talked Andrew's mom into a pair of Ugg's so of course that was fun. It was great to spend all that time with them. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa!!
We got the boys tickets to Walking with the Dinosaurs for Christmas so we went this month. It was a lot fun and done very well, they said it "was the best day of their lives!" It was a great night out.
Christmas came and went this year and the list got longer and longer so good thing it did come up fast. They boys were excited as always and got the things they wanted. It was fun to leave the cookies out and check for tracks out in the front yard. Its always so fun to watch them open their gifts. Tyson even opened one and peeked at it and said "oh I think Santa made a mistake, Seth you wanted one of these lego cars", then he gave it to Seth, it was just sweet. Of course Alex loved the boxes more than anything else. They will be busy playing all their Wii games and building all their legos (their new addiction). It was a great Christmas.
I how my boys love being friends and how they take care of each other. The older ones are so sweet with Alex and take care of him or get him things when he needs them. I love watching them all play together and watch out for one another. They are also so great with me they always are doing things for me from drawing pictures, to picking a flower, to getting a drink of water....they are always telling me how much they love me and what a great mom I am even when I don't deserve it. They are all my little sweethearts.
Tyson came home today really excited because he got a trophy for winning "battle of the books". He wasn't going to enter the contest then he said "I think I know most of the answers so I thought why not". So I was glad that he did because he got his first trophy. Nice job Tyson, you are always hungry for knowledge. And I thought I would throw in his latest art work he is too funny!
We went to Disneyland in October and we had a lot of fun. It was so great to get away and just spend some family time together. The boys had a blast and Alex got better towards the end of the week.(He cried on every ride!!). It was fun to hang out and see friends although was just a wonderful trip.
