It's Pary Time~~

Well ....(ok I don't know how come it underlines my stuff sometimes...I don't even know how to get it off)...to start off with I forgot my camera so I have to rely on someone else to take the pictures for me. And no one takes as many as me...Hee,hee,hee!!!

First of all we went to the Ram for Terriebeth's birthday lunch/dinner. It was pretty slow there. Grandpa played with his new phone to pass the time while Tatem and Ethan tried lemons.
Tatem wasn't sure about it and Ethan was all smiles...but did say it was sour ;o)
Ok I will try it again.....


Ethan once again all smiles.....even with the lemon in his mouth.

John was all smiles when his nephew Ethan took his pictures!! And then Ethan said you need to put that on the blog....sorry John...Ethan requested it!


Hollie past the time by coloring ;o) Nice job Hollie. The Third passed the time coloring also but someone didn't get any pictures of him.

Still waiting...and yes Ethan still has that lemon...but Tatem is done with hers...and we all are getting tired of waiting....by this time we had been there an hour already and no food;o(
I think Caleb tells how we all felt with his grumpy look ;o) You should have seen him when he ate all of his gogert and Ethan didn't want to share his ;o)
Still waiting .....Ethan and Tatem take a shot at a grumpy face ;o) Not bad. Ha,ha,ha!!
We didn't get any picture of Tabitha, TJ, The Third or the Birthday Girl at dinner. That is so sad.

Off to home for presents and cake ..yummmmmmmy!!
The Third is hopping around because he is so excited about the present mommy is unwrapping...He has had it hidden since Hollie's birthday!! Great job The Third!!! He couldn't wait any longer so it had to be the first one she opened ;o).
Tatem is helping a little bit on the next present...she is excited also, because she know it is exactly what mommy wanted ;O). She said that on every present Terriebeth opened it was so cute!!
Yeah some new shoes....yep exactly what mommy wanted!!! Ha,ha,ha!! And we all know how much mommy and Tatem love shoes!!
I don't know who is more excited the givers or the receiver today!!
Let's just say these two are waiting for cake and ROCK BAND!!! Yes they are hooked!! Ha,ha,ha Happy Birthday Sis now can we play Rock Band!????

Wow a fun present!!! Ha,ha,ha ....Looks like it is going to be a lot of work....you call that fun?

Getting the cake ready??? Where did we put....??
Some how I didn't get the lighting of the candles and the blowing out of the candles...so we will just jump to the traditional picture with the birthday person and the 4 kids.
Caleb just wanted to stand by the presents...not with the rest of them ;o) The Third must be playing rock band in his head ;o) and the other two just can't wait for the cake.
There ya go....good picture...but no one saw Ethan driving the car on Caleb's head, or The Third plotting something...just look at that face...Tatem looks like she is scard...Caleb...ok I'm here take the picture so I can leave...and then you have the birthday girl Looking very happy to be surrounded by some much love. Happy Birthday Terriebeth!!! While the cake is being dished up the kids thought they would have a snowball fight with the wrapping paper...it was hard to catch those action shot but we tried...Tatem and Caleb are going for the birthday girl and The Third is all thumbs up about that ;o)
Snowballs flying everywhere!!!! Look out here come Ethan and The Third with Caleb not far behind.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TERRIEBETH.....HOPE YOU HAD A GREAT DAY!! WE LOVE YOU!

The day after the Sleep Over!!!!

Once we got the kids all up and fed....9:30 10:00ish breakfast of pancakes,bacon and eggs...we all went outside to shovel snow and build a snowman...this took a lot of convincing to get Caleb outside...he just wanted to stay in....but once he got out there he had fun ;o). The start of a snowman... Caleb didn't want to help with the building of the snowman...he wanted to shovel...
Sorry I put this one in twice and can't seem to delete it...no matter what Terriebeth says...I even tried that cute little eraser at the top....oh well he is still cute even if it is the same picture!

The snowball fight begins... Watch out Aunt Tabitha ;o) She is ducking and the snowball hasn't even left his hand yet!

Ok Time to start another snowman....the other one didn't get to far ;o)

Keep rolling them guys...your getting closer!

Caleb helping to shovel...He loved this and the fact that he had he own shovel that was just his size ;o)
Grandpa shoveling......


Caleb and Grandpa all done....Look at the smile on both of their faces!! They enjoyed shoveling the drive way together.

Putting the eyes on the snowman...

The finished snowman...Caleb helped by putting in a carrot ear ;o) See Aunt Tabitha hiding in there?


One more...smile big and say Frosty!!! It is a pretty cute little...I mean Little snowman ;o).
They were are really proud of it!!

Time for snow angels....How fun!

Caleb finally found a spot to lay down...but the dogs are like what are you all doing???


A view from the other side...trying to get it with out the dogs...but that didn't work...can you count 5 angels??? And see a little snowman in there?

Dogs going crazy because someone is walking down the street...don't worry Tim's got all 4 dogs under control. Way to go Tim!!
Angel's done here comes the snowballs again!! Fun, fun, fun!

Time to go in for some Hot Chocolate and popcorn after working and playing so hard....while were were eating we decided to watch Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer!!

Yep my dogs have to keep a close watch on all the kids...they were never far from any of them, the whole time they were here ;o)
Caleb's face says how I feel....I am exhausted!!! It was a fun time had by all...but taking care of 4 little ones is a lot of work even with Tim and Tabitha here helping!!! I really think it was because I was sleeping in the bedroom and was listening all night in case one of them woke up. But they slept like babies...until 4 and then Caleb just wanted a drink...but the sippy I had wasn't spill proof so I didn't want it on the couch so I just took him to bed with us! No need to worry about intruders...with the 4 dogs we would have known about it for a mile away...although it is funny...they don't bark at the same time...it is one at a time...like they are singing a song and they each have their own part. Ha,ha,ha!!
Can't wait to do it all again! Thanks to the parents for letting them come and Thanks to the kids for being so good!!




















Yahoo Sleep Over!!!

Well the night finally arrived...We got all 4 grandkids to spend the night on the same night!! How fun is that?? Here is 4 bugs all snug in a rug... What us go to sleep..... you've got to be kidding???
See what Uncle Brian brought us...we're not sleeping just yet...we've got toys to play with ;o)

Oh yeah we also got Terriebeth's and John's dogs for the sleepover...they seemed ready and willing to go to sleep once we put a blanket down for them.


Watching a movie...still not looking tired...but still snug in bed.


Getting a little tired...notice we have changed places???


One more shot of being tired...all of them at this point were doing anything they could not to fall asleep!

Not Midnight yet but all 4 have finally fallen asleep...The Third is the only one who didn't move back to where he stared...well facing the same way! Notice his feet are using his pillow ;o). I was taking it in the dark so I didn't notice that The Third's head was not in the picture.

Eight in the morning only two bug left snug in the bed...
The other two moved into Grandpa and Grandma's bed...one at 4 am and one at 6:30 am.
These two slept until 9-9:30ish

We had a great time....Tatem wanted to call mom once but I told her she was already in bed...she was fine after that. We watched a movie "The Santa Clause" boy did they have a lot of good questions....can't wait to see what they ask mom and dad. We had popcorn and hot chocolate for our late night snack! Fun! Fun! Fun!! Can't wait to do it again!!
