I don't even know where to begin to explain how much I love these pictures. Mrs. Sugu/Kristi is so talented and I love that she takes soooo many pictures. But then it's hard to choose which ones to print. I might as well have a whole wall devoted for these because it was so hard to pick. That has happened each time she has done our pictures. So......here are just a "few" of our favorites out of the "hundreds" she took :)

First Graders Have a Dream
After talking about "the dream" that Martin Luther King Jr. had, my first graders were asked to write down what their dream was to make this world a better place.
My dream is.......
everyone to be nice, to get along and share.
all the black people can do whatever they want.
to clean up the city.
that everyone would have more toys.
that I could fly.
my dream is for everybody to get along.
that everybody will be better.
if it will be quiet.
no fighting in the school.
to make my mom nice.
I'd have a new home.
to recycle and not to fight.
everyone has a good day.
everyone be nice.
my dream is there is no wars.
to work together!
for everyone to do what they want to do.
to be good people and to never be mean.
I hope their dreams come true!

Charity Get Together
As siblings, we decided that instead of drawing eachother's names for Christmas, we would take that money and do something in the form of charity instead. We decided that each year one of us would be in charge of deciding how the money would be used. Our first year we started with my oldest brother, Jason, being in charge and have worked our way down. That year we picked names off of a Giving Tree and used our money to buy things for those families.
Last year, our second year, my older sister, Tricia, was in charge. We chose to buy materials and tie blankets to give to Primary Children's Hospital. We all gathered at the hospital and dropped off the blankets.
This year was similiar. My brother Jedd was in charge and chose to buy toys to donate to Primary Children's Hospital. Once again, we all gathered at the hospital and dropped them off. Both years we have been there, there has been an awesome Christmas tree display.
Grandkids
After dropping of the toys and things, we went to eat at Sizzler. We love Sizzler! You can make fun of us all you want but we love it!

Christmas 2010
I just love, love, love Christmas time. I get so excited for the day after Halloween when a few radio stations start playing Christmas music. I love the whole season. My season just happens to last 2 whole months! I always begin my Christmas shopping somewhere in August and Dave always gets so mad at me because then I end up over-buying. He's right, but I just can't help myself.
Ever since Paityn was a baby, we have done the Christmas Eve pajama thing (like so many, I know). Dave and I give pj's to the girls and then we give eachother pj's as well. I look forward to my new pajamas every year.
I found the girls' pj's at Disneyland this year. They were so cute in their matching evening attire!
Andee checking her things out. She was funny because the first thing she wanted to open was her present from Becca (daycare/pre-school teacher). We had to physically steer her back to what Santa brought her.
Both Paityn and Andee got white desks with pink swivel chairs. That's what kept us up late :)
Another thing I tried to get was Kenadie's reaction to seeing everything for the first time, but it all happened so fast. Her face was just priceless. She stood there pointing with her little mouth in the shape of an "o" and jumping up and down. This little rocking horse was sitting on top of another wrapped present, but she didn't care, she got right on and started rocking.
