HAPPY BIRTHDAY OAKLEY!!

its hard to believe that oakley is already 11 years old! i remember when oakley was about 3, easton was about 1&1/2 and seattul was just a newborn and brandon and i were having one of those moments were you just look at your kids in amazment. brandon and i looked at each other and said "wont it be so weird when out kids are sitting in the back seat of the vehicle and they are carrying on a conversation with each other and we are in the front having a totally different conversation?", well that day has come and it really is nothing short of amazing! they have all grown up to be great kids! i sometimes sit and listen to them talk to each other when they dont know it and its just awesome! oakley is such a good person! he had a lot of fun this year on his bday with his buddies. he wanted a friend party really bad so he go to invite four friends over for pizza, bowling at fat cats and a movie-city of ember! so much fun! we love you oakley!!

WAY TO GO SEATTUL!!

the first grade had an awards assembly and seattul was one of the five people in her class to recieve an award. seattuls teacher mrs. hall is awesome, we have loved having her for a teacher. she says seattul is so obedient, she is a great friend and a good motivater. whenever someone is having a hard time in class seattul is always willing to come over and help out her classmates. mrs. hall says seattul is always getting her work done on time and never has to ask her more than once to do something, she stays on task very well. seattul great job! your mom and dad love you very much and want you to keep up the great work!!!

DAVEY CROCKETT-WAX MUSEUM

In Oakleys school this year everyone in the 5th grade had to dress up as a great american character and come to school in costume ready to give a verbal report to anyone who wanted to listen. All the kids in the 5th grade classes were to sit as still as a "wax statue" until someone came up to them and pressed a "button" on the desk. Once the button was pressed then the wax figure would come to life and give a brief but detailed description of their life and accomplishments. It was a really cute idea and it was better than another book report. The kids really got into it and did a great job!! WAY TO GO OAKLEY, I MEAN DAVEY CROCKETT!
