Phil got the kids dressed up to play basketball. Have you ever seen anything so cute??.jpg)
Carson's third eye apparently needs a patch!.jpg)
How does she get these pictures of Phil!! Watch out Dad, Paul and Angie, she is going to give you a run for your money and she hasn't paid for photo lessons--- natural talent people.....
Jenica got a new camera for her birthday and this is some of the pictures she has taken. 
When I try to put my picture on the bottom of the page how does it always end up being on the top?? Oh well, I am looking adorable....
Always have to have a picture of Buddy.
Here is Grandma Colorado-- lookin skinny!!
I don't really know that I need to say anything here....the picture says it all!!
Hunter must get his moves from Dad!!!
Carson-- we are all confused by her at one time or another.
My thoughts exactly.
A big thanks for all those who helped celebrate Jenica's birthday...we missed you Angie. It was fun to see everyone and to see some hidden talents (aka skating) Thank you and we love you all!!
So when was the last time I went to a kids birthday party and the ADULTS got in a cake fight....oh that would be last night. Phil started it but Holli definately ended it. And through some sort of miricle Jason and I stayed clean. So did the kids. Imagine that!!
We all know I love Holli but I am afraid she has lost her mind. She took ALL the kids to Chucky Cheese then to McDonalds for icecream. (With some help with Jason before he had to go to work) She sure knows how to make those kids happy, which is probably why Jenica says she wants to live with Holli. Heck I don't blame her. Can I move in too, Holli??
My sweet and funny little Jenica Lilly is 5 today. As we talked about her arrival into this world we thought of all the things she has overcome. It's not everyday that doctors give you devastating news without being POSITIVE first I don't know what we would have done if she really had CF. She was born on Friday the 13th. What a wonderful Valentines present for us. I had such high hopes for her coming straight home from the hospital with us but... no such luck. After spending weeks in the NICU she came home. Two days after she went right back in the hospital with RSV. I now believe she knew then how to give us a run for our money. Then all the therapy she went through and one of Little Grandpa's all time favorite stories of her. Her Physical Therapist saying she may need behavioral counseling at 14 months old. HA HA! Anyway, she has turned into a beautiful, vibrant, loving kiddo who I wouldn't change for all the money in the world. I love you Jenica!!
I have been thinking about my blog lately and haven't really had anything to put on here. Although life has been really crazy with some really great highs and lower lows. Life is good. We are all basically healthy and happy. Phil is working hard in school and we see each other pretty much only on Sundays. Sundays are now even more my favorite day of the week. Jenica will be turning 5 this week and I wish I could just pause her right at this age for a while (partially because she is so fun, partially cause I think she will be a scarry teen-ager) School is going along well for everyone and Carson can't wait to start next year. My scouting calling is harder than I imagined possible. I don't do well just sitting back when I think people are making big mistakes that will cost these boys the chance to get their scouting done. I am ready for spring and the chances at a new beginning that brings. I hope everyone is doing well and happy.
