We finally had our family pictures taken. It was a terrible day; cold, windy, cranky kids the whole thing was quit comical but its fun to have them. This first picture makes the hole day worth it. We have all laughed about this picture until our gut hurts. We have all just landed from jumping in the air!! We had a fun day, thanks mom for finally making it happen. We were way over due. We were all sad that Tyler and Pete couldn't make it. Maybe sometime in the next decade we can all be there.

Predicaments

I wish I had a picture for every predicament this kid had gotten himself into. He was pretty stuck in this chair. I wish I could say it was the first time he had been stuck in a chair. When we were at El Camino one night he stuck his head in the little crack between the seat and back of the chair. We almost had to use the jaws of life to get him out. The kid has chopped off the end of his finger, cut his fore head open amongst many more accidents. He is definitely ALL BOY!!!

Family Vacation 2010

We had a really awesome family vacation. It started with Disneyland and California Adventures for 3 days. 3 days was a little much for me but we had a great time. The kids loved it. After a few days of being there Jackson told me that he figured out why this place had the last name of Disneyland, I asked and he replied because everything that is on the Disney channel is here. When you ask him what he liked best he says everything except dark tunnels and the 100 acre woods. So evidentally Winnie the Pooh which is one of my favorites is not his.

After Disneyland we went to see my brother Tyler. It was so much fun to see him. We hung out on the beach and the kids had a blast. Makenna loved the sand. She wasn't a big fan of the rides at Disneyland but she LOVED the beach.

Next we went to Knotts Berry Farm. This was the kids favorite. They had most adult rides shrunk down to kids rides and they had a blast. There were no lines we loved it. Poor Kayden got a major sunburn but even he enjoyed the day.

Saturday morning Tyler took us to Breakfast at the cutest breakfast restaurant I have ever been to. You had to hike to a cove and it was right on the beach. The kids had so much fun playing and getting wet and eating the best French toast ever made. All in all we had a wonderful trip but it was so nice to get home even if it is windy and snowy.

Best Easter Party Ever

A few years ago I bought a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse DVD and the story was "The Best Easter Party Ever". Ever since, Jackson has told me that we have to have a party just like the one on the movie. We have to have a banner with glitter and glue, Decorated eggs and we can't forget the cake. The first two years I put it off and finally this year I caved. I had been punished every month because he wanted to know when Easter was. What month do we get to have the Best Easter Party Ever? Is April after November... December.... January... finally April came and we got to have our party!!! HOORAY

Saturday we had our Easter Picnic with the Trickey's and Grandma Ruthy. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day. There was NO WIND!!! Kayden got his first sunburn, his mama is going to have to get used to Sunscreen. We had a wonderful day playing with cousins and just being WARM outside.

Sunday was another AWESOME day! It was Makenzies' Birthday. My little sister is so dang awesome that I don't know what I would do without her. In the 4 short years that I have been a mom Makenzie has been known as Bak, Mak, My Mak, Matie Macky and I am sure there are many more that I can't think of right now. I hate that she is 16 and boys (like your going to read this) you better not mess with her because we have 2 brothers that can be mean and myself who is very protective over our Matie!!

Its Still Here:(

Twintle Twintle Little Star

The world of Food

This little boy is the happiest little guy I know. He loves Ritz Crackers and was just introduced to Chocolate cupcakes. I don't think carrots and sweet potatoes are going to be as good. This little man keeps the whole family happy. His sweet little laugh and cute little voice makes everyone happy.

Accessories

I think this is the cutest little girl in the whole wide world. Her Daddy got her dressed this morning and she matches wonderfully (haha). She accessorized herself. I just love her!!!

An Hour Away!

Tonight I was needing a break from My kids, the House, Dinner, TV, Noise... just everything. So my husband being the great husband he is provided the opportunity to let me get out. I didn't do anything, I just drove for about an hour and came home. Thats all I needed. I loved more than anything to hear how excited my kids were when I walked in the door. You would have thought that I had been gone for days. I wish I could capture that moment and push replay when they get to be teenagers. I LOVE being the hero in their lives for the short time being.

Dear Elves,

Last night I worked so hard and cleaned my house so well, why do you have to come and destroy everything while I sleep. I have 3 little elves of my own that I enjoy playing with, cooking for, cleaning up after I don't need more. Could you please tell all your little elf friends to please leave the JUDD house alone. The mother of this house is about to go crazy!!


Regards,

The Mother

Up Up and Away

Every Friday night we have a party with a movie. We usually get the air mattress out but Grandma Mitty got the kids a really cool tent for Christmas so the air mattress doesn't have to come out as often (thank you mom). The other night we watched up and the kids had to have balloons tied to the top of the tent. The ate popcorn and snacks and had a wonderful time. Jackson called the tent his floating cozy cone. I absolutely love Friday nights.

Makenna is Potty Trained

My sweet little Makenna is finally potty trained. I say finally but she did it so quick and easy. She has really rocked. Here are just a few cute little pictures of her wearing panties. The first day we bought her new underwear she had to try every pair on... by herself. She put the first ones on.... her reply these aren't goodI almost got it mom, almost
