Happy Birthday Jocy!

Jocy turned 2 years old on friday. She started the day off with the daddy breakfast tradition. Technically it was always a tradition that Zach wanted to do, but I always ruined because I thought I should be able to go. Rude I know. So....you will all be happy to know that it is officially an official tradition! haha! Jocy and Zach went to burger king. woohoo! What a birthday celebration that must have been! Kids are so easily pleased. :)


I have been watching cake design shows on TV lately, so I decided to try to make a barbie cake. I carved it and everything. I had a bit of a mishap with the frostin in the back, but luckily Melissa was there to fix it for me! Here is the before picture...

After....

Happy birthday Jocy!!!

First day of First grade!

I cant believe how time flies. My little boy started first grade last week. We went to meet the teacher night on monday, and Logan was less than thrilled about his teacher. His closest friend wasnt in his class which didnt help the situation. We went into the classroom and Logan already had tears in his eyes. Thank goodness for his tender heart...I told him he was going to hurt his teachers feeling if she saw him crying. He immediately calmed himself, and we met his teacher with no problems. he even acted happy when he spoke with his teacher. He hasn't had a problem with it since. I love my boy. I think we have started off the year pretty well!

Taekwondo!

We put Logan in Taekwondo a few months ago and he loves it! I was a afraid at first of the concept, because Logan is a boy who really likes to throw, punch, kick, fight as it is. After looking into it, it is much more than that. Logan is learning respect, how to listen, how to protect himself, and courtesy. They had a graduation a few weeks ago and Logan did awesome. They went up in a group of 5 and had to do all of their forms for Master Lee in order to graduate to a higher belt color. Logan moved to an orange belt and was picked to move up to a higher group because of his leadership. I am so proud. It has been really good for him. Now to get Rai into dance classes......

Poor puppies....

I am a sucker for all things small...but Zach is even more than I am sometimes. Our friend found some stray puppies out here in buckeye. There were about 7-10 of them and they were starving to death. Well, we couldnt just leave them. Our family headed out a few sundays ago to save a couple of them. I felt so bad. We took the smallest of the bunch of them since they were the least likely to fend for themselves. They had ticks on them, and were very malnourished. We had them for a few weeks, and took care of them until we were sure they would be ok. We had some people come and pick them up today. I hope they will be happy puppies.
