I NEED YOUR HELP!

Ok, so my little angelic son Chase decided to pour himself a glass of milk while I was up blow drying my hair. I came downstairs to find 1/2 gallon of milk all over my rug in the family room. I got all the milk up that I could, washed with water and soap. My house stunk so terrribly bad for a couple days but I kept trying ... so now my house doesn't smell like sour milk anymore but if you stick your nose down on the spot in the rug it is a horrible stench! I've tried baking soda, alcohol (read that on on-line), club soda. Any other ideas????

Chase as a Girl!!


So I thought this was so funny. We went to Disneyland the other day with family and my niece picked out this Sleeping Beauty wig for her gift that day. We tried it on Chase and couldn't stop laughing. So I guess I know what he may look like with long, blonde locks!

Happy Birthday Alex

Alex with his biggest fans on his b-day
Zach got him a new measuring tape

Happy Birthday Alex! He turned 38 today and doesn't like it when he turns the even numbers (I have no idea why) But anyway, luckily he's got a young face and is young at heart since he's getting a little nervous about approaching the 40's. A better father for my children I could never have asked for -- he is kind, loving and always patient with them. He is also a great husband, someone I plan to grow old with (of course he'll be growing older faster than me--haha!) We love you!!

FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL

Well, we made it to Day One! Megan was very nervous and couldn't eat breakfast but couldn't wait to get out of here fast enough to "get the show on the road". She started 3rd grade & is in Mrs. Morgan's class. She is most excited about learning cursive handwriting this year. She said after school, "I love 3rd grade!" Lets hope that lasts all year...



Zach was also excited about going to day one of kindergarten. (although he called my mom to say he got his high school teacher's name) We got to school a little early and showed him where Megan's room was, she happened to be at recess so he got to talk and see her for a minute. As we walked over to his classroom, I suddenly felt the "death grip" on my hand and he was pulling me away from the class. I was thinking...oh boy, this is not going well at all. He said he wasn't going in and that he would "watch through the window." I finally coxed him in and then he did really well. That was a scary start, though. We'll see how it goes tomorrow! He's excited because he met a new friend named Jack and he likes him because he has the same name as Jack Sparrow. So as long as everything relates back to pirates we'll be doing good!

His teacher also had Megan for kindergarten asked me if he would be a teacher's pet like Megan was and I laughed and said "you tell me in a couple of weeks!"

1st Day of School

Zach-- ready to go!
