7th Annual Parry Family Oscar Party!

Good times had by all! = )
Miss beautiful Gracie Parry as Snow White. Gracie had a blast playing with all the kid at the party.
We drove to Dallas to attend our friends the Parry's marvelous Oscar party... After the Oscars they(my little ladies & the men) played a little Rock Band! =) I put some video of this at the bottom, just keep in mind that to watch the video's you need to magically turn your head to the right. Oops I am not the sharpest tool in the shed.
I wont know, SORRY!
Patience's actually hung out with her family...I know we are all very shocked & we sure do love it when she does feel like we are cool enough to hang with if only for a few hours! ; )

Who wants to go 4 a swim?

Yeah they did it... jumpin' off the diving board into 13ft deep water was a little scary at first however, the girl got over their fear & jumped into the frigid water. Josh made it to the pool just in time to help talk the 2 little ladies into being brave & jump! It was a proud moment for us.

Going 2 the Zoo

Date night with the Meyer's is always a good time. My face always hurts from all the laughing & smiling I do. Kristina did her best to tame the wild best in which we took out that night! However, our husband can never be tamed! = )

Josh & Mike's nite out with kids...

Someone should take the camera way from Addison I have just a few pix of her & Josh hugging on each other!
Braden & Tyler are the coolest boy in Oregon...my girls enjoy hangin' with them they say that the Meyer boys are such wonderful gentlemen.
What a great motley crew six kids & two adults!

Just the four of us!

We are certainly a movie family…almost (I will try not to use extreme words.) every Friday night we watch a movie or two as a family, it is acknowledged as “Movie Night” at our house. We watch just a few movies every week. ; ) However, there are times in which I get to take my sweet girls out. We went & saw National Treasure Book of Secret, which we all liked & Josh is going to have to wait until it comes out on dvd to see it with our ladies. I do enjoy hang out with such wonderful ladies we always have a good time together.

A family that reads together stays together!

As a Family, we decided to read The Golden Compass & when we finished the book, we would go to the movie. We all received emails about this book & movie saying that it’s “NO GOOD!” This is the quickest way to get our family to do something… we like to make our own opinions, we enjoyed The Golden Compass & look forwarded to start reading The Subtle Knife. As for the movie, we really enjoyed it. There was a kid in the theater who yelled as the closing credits rolled “Is that it… What is going to happen to Lyra Belacqua?” He did put all our feelings out there for everyone to hear, it was a fantastic movie.

A day with Hannah...

A day with my Hannah Bear… all my ladies had Friday off however, they do stay pretty busy with friends & outings in which does not included their dear old mother! Friday Pj hung out with friends, Addison went to Mount Hood to play in the white freezing stuff, &Hannah had a play date planed for later on that day. However, I asked if she would like to go to lunch & a movie with her mom. She said, “Sure but wouldn’t Dad & Pj be upset if we don’t invite them?” Therefore, we called Josh & Pj to see if they wanted to do lunch with us. I did have to inform Hannah that the movie is just for her & me to have a mommy daughter date. Pj wanted to go… of course she needed to bring her entourage, & she said that after lunch she “had” to go back to her friend’s house! = 0 I was surprise that Josh was able to do lunch with us too, with such a demanding job I thought for sure he would be going to lunch with clients. Lunch was fun & after running Josh back to work & Pj to her friends Hannah & I went to Alvin and the Chipmunks it was a cute movie Hannah liked it & we had a wonderful time together. I really enjoyed hangin’ with my sweet, honest, compassionate, loving, genuine, elegant, & beautiful daughter. Again, I will declare that I am the luckiest mother ever. = )

A day with Patience...

Patience had a day off from school last week while her little sisters had to go to school. Therefore I decided to try extremely hard to get her to stay home… which if any of you have a teenager you know just how tough it is to get them to want to hang at home without friends or to get them to not want to go somewhere with their friends is! I wanted to surprise her with a mommy, daughter day. I was in need of a day with my baby it has been a while since we had a day all to our self’s. Needless to say, it happened we had an incredible date we went to lunch & went to see Juno, which was a good movie Pj liked it a lot, & I too enjoyed the movie, however I really enjoyed the time I have to spend with my sweet teenager. I am the luckiest mom to have such a magnificent, kind, loving, sweet, smart, genuine, & beautiful young daughter.
