Juicy Juice House Party ~ Wii Bowling

Terra hosted a House Party sponsored by Juicy Juice. We had a Wii Bowling Tournament and all!! I have never played Wii Bowling and I thought it was a ton of fun. Maybe we will finally break down and buy a Wii. Maybe not. :o)

Friday night at the HB!

House of Bounce with Zachary and Anna, Geoff, Jackson, and Ethan:

The kids had a great time jumping and running. Then, we met up with Scott, Grandma K, and Uncle Rich for CiCi's pizza. Good times, good times.

FOR ETHAN!

HAPPY 3RD BIRTHDAY ETHAN!!!

WE'LL SEE YOU ON THURSDAY!!

Cailey ~ April 3, 2003... 2 1/2 years old

Cailey still had never had a haircut when this picture was taken! She didn't even start getting hair until she was 2! Poor thing. But now she has beautiful, thick strawberry blond hair...go figure.

Blizzard???

The people who know ~ and they keep reminding us that they are, in fact, the people that know ~ are calling this the March 2009 Blizzard. Hmmmm, it's bad and it's still snowing...but I wouldn't call this a blizzard just yet. I've seen much worse...2003 and 2006 comes to mind. But, it is supposed to keep snowing through the night and we could get up to 22" of snow by the time it all ends. We didn't have any snow at 8:30 this morning, so this has all come down quick.

The kids are already suited up and playing! Ah, to be young and think the snow looks fun. I think it just looks cold and I would much rather stay inside next to the fire with a hot toddy cup of hot tea.

August 10, 2003 - Disneyland

I think this is one of the most hilarious pictures of Cailey. This was the end of the day ~ a very long, very hot day. Cailey took on Disneyland ~ she put up a good fight but clearly Disneyland won this round!

Our new baby!

Scott We finally broke down and got a cat!!!! We adopted her from the Dumb Friends League Animal Shelter on Sunday. We have been considering a cat for a while and we have made a few trips to the shelter. This time we finally found one that felt just right for us!

After much arguing debate, we all settled on the name Panini (her name at the shelter was Terwilliger...yeah, that had to change immediately!). The kids named her after the character on the cartoon Chowder ~ not the sandwich. She is roughly two years old and she is the sweetest cat ever. She loves to be around people and cries when she is separated from us. Unlike most animals, she is not a bit frightened by the tornado we all know as Benjamin ~ that was our main concern. She actually loves the kids and 'plays' with them and snuggles up close to them.

She is actually 'kissing' Ben in this picture. She was playing cars with him ~ I am totally serious! Ben was lining up his cars and she would touch each one with her paw as he put them next to her. Then she leaned forward and licked his forehead! She is really sweet.

Unfortunately, Panini woke up just as Scott took this picture. But, before that, Cailey and Panini were sleeping nose to nose.
