Austin's Blog Entry - February 3, 2010

Hi, this is Austin (Mom is typing).

I like Legos alot and I also like to play with cars. And, I sometimes I like to draw and make paper airplanes. Sometimes I even like to play tag or even rock/paper/scissors or thumb wars. And I like to scam my Mom. I have Legos all over the house - which is true. And I like to play battles and go on the computer. I also like to watch TV and play video games. But my favorite kind of video game is DS New Super Mario Bros and Bowsers Inside Story.

I like to go to school and my favorite subject to learn is science, math and computers. Gym used to be one of my favorites and I like to play at recess.

My friends are: Ryan, Natalie, Jordan, Nicholas, Kaylee, Braeden, Alex, Anna and Jessica. And that is it!

Zoo Boo 2009


We have been lucky to have been invited to the Detroit Zoo - "Zoo Boo" for the last three years. The kids have a great time and enjoy the kids buffet and the candy they receive. Here is a picture of the kids at Zoo Boo 2009.

Apple Orchard - October 24, 2009



On Saturday, we took the kids to the local apple orchard to pick out a pumpkin. Even though it was rainy and cold, we still had a great time.

Abby Goes to the Mall



The newest mall in the area is very "dog friendly". Last week I took one of the pups - Abby. She loved seeing all the people, but most of all - she LOVED Nordstroms!

Nauvoo, Illinois 2009






We took the kids over to Nauvoo for three days. Emily loved dressing up as a pioneer; Austin loved "spending time with my family" and Jacob loved playing his DS.

Family Reunion - August 3, 2009


Illinois 2009




The first of August put us in Illinois for my family reunion. The kids love going down to central Illinois to see family. We went to a few Lincoln sites, along with doing genealogy.

A Post From Emily - July 8, 2009

I'm so busy this summer and I'm not glad school is over though. Who does not like school??? I
can't wait till next year. This summer I am playing with the new puppies which are now eight
months old. Today Bailey went to the other side of the fence and ran far away. Mom was in her
pajamas running past the fence running two neighbors away and caught Bailey. Bailey might of
chased a rabbit. We don't know. Well anyways we are just busy and you might of noticed that
I was wearing my Betsy Ross dress for Independence day. Betsy Ross sewed the American
flag if you don't know her. This is July and it is so hot outside. I am thinking about going to the
beach this summer. I want to collect some some shells like last time I collected about ninety-
three shells. Yeah, that is a lot of shells!

Happy 4th of July!!

Yes, Emily is in her "Betsy Ross" dress that I made for last year's school play; Austin is in pajama's (yes, he is always in his pajamas) and Jacob missing. Jacob was stubborn and would not help set the table, so he was sent to his room without fun.





Stoney Creek Park - June 23, 2009






We took a mini-hike and had a picnic at Stoney Creek. It was a nice hike; Jacob didn't have a meltdown (WOOHOO) and we ran into a couple from Scotland, who was thrilled to see Kenny - the scottish terrier.
