It took some convincing but I got them all there and looking gooood! Thanks to my mom for cutting the boys hair and Jen for plucking my eyebrows( just can't do it too myself) and to Cashena for coming over and doing mine and Morgan's hair. It was a group effort to get us all looking good. We finally have a family picture with Hayden in it.

Happy birthday to my little baby brother Darrin. You are getting soooooo old 22!

KIDNEY ANYONE?

Brian has always wanted the month of December off from work. But he has never been able to save his vacation that long. He will get his wish this year, just not in the way he expected. On December 9th he will be donating his kidney to his sister Christina. Hopefully everything will go great, and both of them will heal quickly, and we can get back to celebrating this joyous time of the year(Brian's favorite time of the year) Thanks to my family for being willing to help out with the kids and my job. It is comforting to know that our kids will be loved, fed, and well cared for while we are at the hospital. Hopefully 4 boys won't drive Nicole crazy. Thanks to everyone, we love you and appreciate all your support.

1. I love to read, but since joining a book club, I have actually read less than before. I also read really fast, so sometimes I have to reread the first pages of a book to remember if I have read it or not. Thank goodness I now have a list of books on this site.
2. I loathe tardiness. It drives me crazy when people aren't on time.(patients) And it gets me even madder when the don't apologize!! How rude is that? So for this I over compensate and arrive everywhere way too early!
3. I wish I was OCD about cleaning and exercising. I would much rather Watch TV or Read, then do either of them. Maybe one day the OCD will kick in!
4. I can't stand it when the people's lips on TV aren't in sync with the words. We are in 2008 for heavens sake. Get it together.
5. I wish everyday that money will be in the mailbox. I don't know where I think it will come from, but maybe someday it will be in there.
6. I really think it is a waste to have a cell phone and a home phone. But I can't bring myself to actually cancel one. Someone might try to call me, and not know the other number(haHa)
I TAG anyone who wants to play along

Crazy Hayden!

Crazy Hayden!! We went to the mall on Payton's b-day, and Hayden had to ride the moving stairs. He freaked out when I couldn't take him, because I had the stroller. Brian and Payton were in the bathroom, so we took the elevator up, that is not what he wanted. So I carried everything down, including the stroller, because I couldn't find the other two. When we got to the bottom, Brian took him up and down one more time. Hayden is so stubborn, and wasn't going to be happy until he got his way.

Basketball Twilight and Cross-stitch

Morgan has been very busy these last few weeks. She has been playing basketball for the last few weeks, and she is improving. She also has picked up my love of reading, and stole Twilight from my reading room. I was going to make her wait a few years to read it, but she beat me to it. I did the same thing with my mom's Danielle Steele books, but I was a little older. It has only been 2 weeks and she is almost done with the first book. GO MORGAN!! She has also decided that achievement days aren't so bad, and she made a Thanksgiving cross stitch. Grandma helped tomake it into a pillow. Thanks Grandma

I fought the wall and the wall won!

Payton loves to draw so a couple of weeks a go he was hanging his art work, and school work on his bedroom door. The chair slipped and the door frame of the play room and his face met. Who do you think won? He almost bit through his lip, good thing he has a high tolerance for pain. I am amazed at how fast it healed only 1 Week.

Jordan made the Honor Roll!!
