Much needed update!

Wow, we have been pretty busy lately. I am going to try to get our blog updated. We haven't really done much as far as fun and exciting stuff, but I am in school, Mike's work schedule can get crazy, J has school and tumbling, and E does tumbling! Plus I am watching my neighbors kid for some extra money each month. So here is the first set of pictures to come with brief captions!  :) 
J's preschool picture! I cannot believe that he will be starting kindergarten in the fall. The school system here has you register, list your top 3 schools, then they do basically a match day to place him. I am hoping he gets into the school right around the corner from us. Plus I visit teach the Kindergarten teacher there and would love for him to have her! She is one amazing lady!! 

 Last sept/oct...I can't remember which month exactly but all the 1st year residents...(interns)...went to Thermapolis, WY on their intern retreat. I unfortunately didn't get to go because Dozer decided to eat 3 dozen chocolate chips cookies and was sick for a couple days. I suggested to Mike that he take just J and make it a father/son outing since he has missed the father/son camp out last year. 
J had a blast. He really loves his dad! Here is J eating some Rocky Mountain Oysters and yes people he LOVED them...so gross! 
The day the boys were supposed to get back, E and I went out for a girls lunch! 

October brought Halloween and lots and lots of candy! I found this costume for $5 at Ross, but it needed a new wig and wand...so this is her sporting the wig I made and her wand that I made also. Sad thing was after I took the kids trick or treating at a shopping center she lost the wand. 
One of the attending dr's held an annual halloween party at her house and it was awesome. Thanks to some friends of ours we dressed up as Van Helsing and me as Vampiress! I don't have a picture of that but I can find it! J was a werewolf!

In November we got to go to Utah to visit my sisters new baby and visit family. It was Mike's first vacation in like 4 months! Much needed away time. E was so excited she wanted to go at like 10pm the night before we were leaving...LOL 
J with his cute new cousin!!
E holding little Bev
She is so cute! 

My mom got a part time job as a bus driver sub...this is the supposed secret of all the stay at home moms because it works around the school schedule! :) You just have to get the bus route that your kids have and you will be set! While we were there she had to drive a route and she got permission to take the kids for a spin...
J and Grant on the bus! Grant and Tage were able to make it just in time to ride the bus with us.
E and Uncle Tage 
My mom the bus driver! 
The bus ride was all done and she had to get going to start her route. The kids absolutely had a blast on this short little ride!
