American Girl Dolls

Santa brought Abby and Katelyn American Girl Dolls for Christmas. Abby got "Kit" and Katelyn got the girl of the 2008 "Mia." They have had lots of fun with their dolls. Apparently Mia is very flexible...wish I could do the splits!

Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve at Seaworld

So...I have been really bad with the blog. So, my new goal is to do a post a day for a week. Hopefully I can get you all updated from a a few months ago. We were able to visit SeaWorld a few time before it closed until March. Abby's friend Kalei came to visit and we were able to go with her to SeaWorld. The one day we decided to feed the dolphins. The boys get scared so they just throw the food in the tank. The girls enjoy it a little more and try to pet them while they feed them. It is so nice to have SeaWorld so close. We can see it from the windows in our house!! It will be really fun in the summer...once it is warm...and the water park is open!

The girls are on this ride called the "Journey to Atlantis"

Jordan, Jack, Olivia, Teegan

A new friend in the neighborhood


We saw a diamondback rattle snake just up the street from our house. Do you like it Grandma Brenda?

Jack and the Tree and Bye, Bye Binkie

So, the night that Jordan and Brandon went to the Spurs game Jack misplaced his binkie. I looked all night for it and finally told him it was lost. I wasn't about to go out and buy a new one that night. So, Jack has been really good and has been without out a binkie for over a week. Yes!!! It is gone. Well, I was telling my sister two nights ago that he had been without the binkie for over a week and that it was still lost. I told her it would show up sometime and that we had to make sure Jack didn't see it because he had been without it so long. Well, exactly an hour after I talked to Emily (luv ya!) I started to take down our Christmas tree. Guess what I found??? You got it!!! I found the binkie high in the branches where Jack threw it. We also found an old cell phone, a ball, a crayon, and a dirty sock. I guess we will just let Jack decorate the tree next year!!! What a two year old!!! But, thank goodness the binkie went bye, bye!

Tim Duncan's citizenship award goes to.... Jordan Tourtillott

So after being in school for three weeks Jordan's teacher awarded him with the Tim Duncan citizenship award. He won a ticket to the Spurs game. So, of course, Brandon had to get him the gear and take him to the game. We are real proud of Jordan and his kindness to others!! Good Job!!
