On Sunday Lauren invited all of the family to her room for a party. She made invitations and set her room up with stations. She had many stations, including make up, nails, tea party, board game, craft and a dance floor.
We all came to the party. It was very fun to be silly together. The dance floor was a big hit. These are the times that I cherish. I love watching everyone get along. Even though the dancing eventually turned in wrestling (dad and boys)

I will introduce my six kiddos... Let's start with the boys.

My oldest son is Mason William. He was born July 28, 1992 at 9:03am. He was 7 lbs 7 oz. and almost 22 inches
long. Mason has always been very independent and strong. He is very quiet (except with his friends)
Mason started playing the sax in 5th grade. When he was in high school they talked him into playing the trombone.
Mason has excelled in playing music and really enjoyed marching band. Last year he auditioned for the DCI drum corp The Academy. He made it and toured the country. The show was called Strangers in Paradise. They did very well and place 14th in finals. This year he is going to go on tour with them again. (if he can pay his fees) The Academy will preform in Denver this summer. We are planning to drive to Denver to see them along with our family. I am so excited to see all of our family and support him. Mason is attending Chandler Gilbert community College. His major is criminal justice. I really think he would make a great police officer. He has a great sense of justice and he is physically fit.

Bryan Matthew was born on October 22, 1994. He was born at 3:13 am and was 7 lbs 2 oz. Bryan has always been very compassionate. He always has stuck up for the underdog. Bryan is good at many things. He just needs to pick something :) Bryan has been doing theater lately. Right now he is in Hairspray at the Queen Creek Community theater. He has done
productions with Valley Youth Theater. I am trying to have him audition for the Xfactor. I really enjoy listening to him. Bryan is 16 and begging to get his license. (He knows what he needs to do) He was backing out of the driveway the other day and ran into a pole and did some pretty big damage on my pilot. Not fun... No wonder car insurance is expensive. haha. Bryan is a sophomore at Basha high school, where he has made some great friends. Bryan's favorite class is seminary. It is a place where he can have some peace.
Braxton Fred Eugene was born March 10, 2000. He was born at 1:45 pm and was 6 lbs 2 oz. He has always been small, but he has the biggest heart and spirit. Braxton is in 5th grade at Patterson Elem. His teacher this year is Mrs Kross. He is a very bright young man. He got 1st place in the science fair this year. Braxton also came in 2nd in the spelling bee. Braxton has also done theater. He was in the Hobbit and Peter Pan at Valley Youth Theater. Braxton
even won an acting award (A STAR AWARD) for Best Supporting Actor. I loved his
acceptance speech. He thanked mom and dad for driving him. Braxton is really quiet. I guess he isn't shy. He just chooses his words wisely. Braxton loves to play sports. Right now I am sitting at football
practice. This is our families first ever football experience. I sure hope that he likes it.
And Now the girls...
Myranda Lorene was born on December 15, 1997. She was born at 11:00 am and was 6 lbs 10 oz. She had dark skin and black hair. She looked so different tha
t her
big brothers. Myranda has never had a shy bone in her body. She could make a friend anywhere and has. Myranda loves to learn. She is in CATS at her school. Myranda has always been a wonderful reader. In elementary school they would have her be a guest reader for other classes including older classes. Myranda loves technology. She says the morning announcements at her jr high in the morning. Myranda also enjoys theater and has been in many productions. Myranda plays the sax and is in concert band and jazz band. Her band teacher also lets her be drum major during pep band. In her free time you can find her on face book, making you tube videos
or on her cell phone.
Lauren Jennifer was born on October 19, 2001. She was born at 11:30 and was 7 lbs 5 oz. She is in 3rd grade. Her teacher is
Mr. Hoppal. She is doing great in school. She is really a smart girl. She has tons of friends and her teacher says she is a natural leader. Lauren loves girl things... she is my girly girl. Lauren has more lip gloss than any girl could even need. Lauren and I love to watch Project runway together. That is our girl time. Lauren is a good dancer. Right now she is in a winter guard group called Jubilee. She is learning how to toss rifels and flags. She is having a good time. I am having a good time attending her competitions.
Lexie Grace was born on May 23, 2005. She was born 3 weeks early and weighed 6 lbs 14 oz. Lexie got very sick after she was born. Most likely due to being early. Lexie is my baby and probably always will be treated younger that she is. (I know, I know) Lexie lo
ves to be a helper (except for cleaning) If someone is sick she is the first there to try to get water or offer 5 year old medical advice. Like hold your breath and drink water. Her remedy for a tummy ache.
Lexie doesn't like for someone to be alone. She will go out of her way to make sure either mom or dad aren't alone. Lexie is in Kindergarten this year. While she started off a little slow she sure has blossomed. Her reading is on level and she counts amazing. Her favorite show is Max and Ruby. She could watch that all day... and has once. I can't believe that her birthday will be here soon. She will be 6. How did that happen really?
Well that is a little blurb about my 6 kiddos... I will be posting tons more. (someday)

Sad news today
I found out this morning that my Uncle Charles is not doing well. He is in ICU and his lungs are shutting down. He is my dad's last living sibling. I will try to go to CO if things turn for the worse. I haven't seen my uncle very often. I remember a trip to California when I was young. I remember Uncle Charles being very superstitious. He wouldn't get on a flight to LA because of the flight number. It is so hard to watch a loved on die of something like smoking. It is not an easy death. It was painful to watch my mom. I am so saddened to hear about my uncle.
Busy Wednesday.
Whew!!!! Wednesdays are hard. Today for example. Braxton has steel drums after school until 4. Football from 5-7 (about 30 minutes away). Myranda has Jazz band after school until 4:30 then mutual from 7-8:30. Bryan has Hairspray from 5:30-7:30 in Queen Creek. Lauren has winter Guard from 5:30-7:30 at Basha. Mason has class from 7:10-9:50. Matt and I both have Pack meeting from 6:00-7:00. Oh and Matt has band tonight also.... It's not all going to happen. Like I will miss pack meeting and Matt will be late to band BUT all of the kids will be where they need to be. (with the help of a friend of Bryan bringing him home)
Wow... I guess I'll try this
Well, I have really enjoyed reading my sister in laws blog she has. I love how she now has a record of interesting things. I will try to follow in her big footsteps :)
I am not very well spoken but I really want to remember cute things my 6 kiddos do. They are growing up way too fast. I can see them out of the house before I know it.
