 Papa & Gigi drove to Saratoga Springs yesterday afternoon to see Miss Aria Jane sing in her school program.

She was in the very front tow, so we were those people who kept creeping up closer and closer so we could see her!

The second graders sang two Hawaiian Christmas songs.

She nailed it!

Mia sent these to me last night.

Hudson brushing his teeth like the biggest boy that ever there was!!

Oh, Melrose!

I received this picture from Jackson last night.

You can read how that conversation went.

 I could not stop laughing!

Isis works nine evenings in a row, so it's full daddy duty for Jacks... which he rocks!

These girls are the actual best!

 

Kehlani, You Did It!

This sweet, sweet girl.

Kehlani is REALLY struggling with phonics.

Jackson and Isis are working so hard to help her.

They have tried all the tricks they've heard about. 

Sweet Lani works so hard at everything.

She is truly the most tender little love.

Isis sent us this picture yesterday!

Kehlani did it!

She's working so hard and she's getting there!

We are so proud of her.

Lani Boo, we love you so big!

 

Jail

At some point on Saturday afternoon, Luna and Bela escaped the backyard AGAIN.

Whoever's backyard they got into took them to Animal Services.

Burke got home at 4:45 and got a call from his sister-in-law that Animal Services had the two.

WHAT?!?!

They were literally just back there.

How on earth do they keep escaping???

Turns out Animal Services closes at 5 and isn't open on Sundays.

Burke searched up their mugshots.

They're both posing.

POSING.

Like, so happy with themselves.

It was a much more quiet weekend.

The girlies stopped by.

They all wanted their noses "painted red."

Gigi was on it!!

 

Shadow

Burke called me on Friday and told me that I needed to come to the dealership when I got off work.

Meet Shadow.

Pepper will be going to a loving family (I hope!!!).

Shadow, I was told by every guy at the dealership, has a bigger engine, bigger pedal, and bigger screen.

Shadow is FAST.

SO fast.

I hugged Pepper, as you do.

I thanked her for the last 2 1/2 years of safety, reliability, grand baby messes, and football team mom travels.

Shadow, welcome!

 

How I'm Loved

I LOVE when my family send me pictures of the sunset or sunrise.

I know I've blogged about this before, but I am in awe.

From Burke to Cooper to Aria Jane.

I LOVE my sunsets and sunrises.

I really love my family!

 

Oh Deeeaaaaar!!!

"Oh DEEEEAAAARRRR!"

This is one of my favorite phrases of Hudson's.

But not for this reason.

I got this picture while I was in a meeting yesterday morning.

I told Mia she should take him to Instacare.

No stitches, but glue it was.

Poor Squish.

All bandaged up.

Also, peep the artwork he created on their living room wall!!!!
